BY DEAN RICHARDS.
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. The diversity t
Interests In modern life makes a.cea-
! stant demand for men trained to early
