Tho legislature of '1909 passed an act providing' for a reorganization of tho colleges forming tho university, by the teriqs of which tho old industrial coll "0 was replaced by tho college of engineerings and tho collego of agri culture. In accordance with the pro visions of this amendment of tho char ter of the university, the board of re gents reorganized 'the several col leges, the changes becoming effective September 1st, 1909. Instruction In civil engineering was first given in 1877; In electrical en gineering In 1891; in practical me chanics In 1892; and in mechanical engineering in 1898. From a very few students at tho beginning, tlo num ber enrolled in engineering at the timo of tho organization of tho collego of engineering had grown td over fdur hundred. At the present time tho total enrollment of students In tho col lege Is 400. From ono lntsructor In engineering, tho number has grown until now fifteen professors and In structors gave full timo and several assistants part .time to tho tochnlcal work of tho collego. Two' 8mal Rooms. At the beginning the- work of in struction in engineering was given in one or two small rooms in University hall. Tho erection of tfio electrical laboratory In 1891; of mechanics arts hall In 1898, and tho fino mechanical engineering laboratory in 1909 haye done much to further Interest In the work of engineering education in the university. Wtylle It is true that not all of the department In the college are properly housed and equipped, yet on the whole, the material equipment of the college includes much of which we may well feel proud. k Whllo tho Industrial college was an effective organization during tho year when Its total enrollment of students was Bmall, It bocamo obsolete with In creasing numbers of students and di versity of work offered. Tho rear rangement Is in accord with tho gen oral plan of organization in a majority of American universities. Efficient Plan. It is believed that tho organization of tho college of engineering will have a very decided influence on tho future development of tho work In engineer ing. Tho differentiation of this work from that in the old industrial collego will Increase the loyalty of the stu dents and will make more effective tho efforts of the ofllcors of the collego t6 build up the work" and equipment of tho departments, and to extend tho in fluence of the cplolego abroad. Already tentative' plans have been' formulated for adequately housing and equipping the departments of civil en gineering, electrical engineering and applied mechanics; and for the organi zation of a bureau which will keep the college In close touch with its alumni, and which .will enablo it to place its graduates In lucrative and attractive positions. While ourgradu- t t ates have rarely had difficulty In find ing suitable positions, this employ! ment bureau Is required to enable us to properly servo our own students and those who node their services. Aim of College. Thn nrlmnrv nlm nnd fnnMnn nf tho 'college "of engineering is "to give such training as will preparo its grad uates to enter into tho profession ot engineering, civil, mechanical and electrical; incidentally to give that culture which comes with tho disci plined mind and uand and eyo, and that character training which comes from tho enthusiastlc'pursult of a pro fession where honesty and honor la work and purpose are the first requi sites of success. That tile, work of the engineering departments has bees worth while is attested by the loag list of successful engineers who data Nebraska as their alma mater. Many of these mon are occupying high posi tions as managers, superintendents. engineers, resigners, englneertar salesmen, etc., and so far- as la know practically all, of them are 'filling posi tions la which technical knowledge la a primary requisite.
