PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Thurs'day, October 6, 1949 'Engine9 Students Call West Campus 'Home9 By Rod Rises There is a part of the Univer sity that the average Bizad or A & S collegian never sees, and consequently, of which he is never aware. Oh. he may notice that the buildings are there, and see other students walking in and out of thee buildings, but the business major just doesn't seem to know what goes on in those labs on the west end of the campus. This is the area mysteriously referred to in Sosh as: "Engine School.' Enrollment Ilish The College of Engineering of the University is one of the most important subdivisions of the whole. For a high percentage of the male population of the Uni versity is enrolled in this college. Taking a casual glance at the campus west of Grant Memorial, we see a rather impressive group of tall, academic-looking struc tures. It is in these classrooms and laboratories that the engi neering students slave for four to five years to get a degree. Starting directly west of the Ad building,, we find a large brick building, tastefully trimmed ln corroded green copper. In this building, and its adjoining tem porary annex, majors in archi tecture and architectural engi neering labor over hot drawing boards from dawn 'till dusk. Cl.iscs in color rendering, indus trial and commerced design, and elements of building construction are taught here. rhysies Lal In the large, three story gray concrete building labeled "Phys ical Laboratoiy" are. appropri ately enough, the Physics labs. In this domain of "T-Square'' Smith and Dr. Jorgenson, all branches of physical science are taught. From the lowliest fresh man taking physics 1 to the gradu ate student taking Physics 1537, or "Elements of the Atomic Pile" all who enter here have a real respect for the physical compo nents of the universe. The Physics lab houses some of the most re spected scientific minds in the country, among them the afore mentioned Dr. Smith and Dr. Jor genson. On the third floor of the building is a very complete and efficient U. S. Weather bu reau. To the north of the Physics lab is a squat brick building whose name is designated in tile on the threshold; M. E. This is the Mechanical Engineering building, in which most of the heavy ma chinery of the college is located. The metal and wood shops are here, the power lab, where rep resentatives of most every kind of steam engine is to be found, and the metallurgy foundry. Dean's Office And so it goes, in Mechanic Arts Hall, just east of the ME building, are located the offices of Dean Greene, the head of the College of Engineering. Also to be found in this build ing are the classes in CE, or sur veying and its counterparts. Across the campus, and a long cold walk on a cold winter's day, is Bancroft, the yellow brick school building on the corner of 14th and U streets. In one part of the building, Engineering Me chanics in the form of mechan ical drawing and drafting are taught. In the other end, engi neering mechanics in the form of structures and materials are taught. The EM lab contains large presses and with these, the stu dents test the strength of various building materials. EE Building But bv far the most outstand ing building in the Engineerinc college will be the new Electrical Engineering building. This build ing, which is now being con structed in the area left by tht 1 razing of old U Hall, will be one i of the most modern and complete ! laboratories for research in elec tricity in the country. When com ; pletod, it will be three stories tall an L-shapod structure located i squarely in the middle of all of ! the activities on Engine campus j So read, you happy students and respect the man who says ; that he is an engineering student. ; For he has a right to be proud of his colicge.

Another School Reports Freshman Cap Trouble "This year we mean business," reported the sophomore eiass president at Syracuse University, when he received reports that freshmen were forgetting to wear their "frosh lids." And worse than that, they were not tipping them at the proper time. To remedy the situation, a mass trial was planned to pun ish those forgetful ones. It was sincerely hoped there would be no bloodshed, but yoti know how it is.
