Marti of Lincoln will be guest
speaker.
In 1894 the members of the old
Electrical Engineering Society
feeling that some day electricity
would be universally used, decided
to show the public what they knew
about this mysterious "stuff."
This was the beginning of Engi
neers Day.
Other departments of the col
lege joined in putting on an exhi
bition in 1913. As laboratory
equipment became more plentiful,
the scope widened, and to the open
house were added the annual en
gineers' banquet, convocation and
field day. This made up Engineers'
Week, which has had to be re
duced to a day since the begin
ning of the war.
