First Exhibition
Electrical Engineers Began
Annual E-VJeek In W
By BARRY LARSON
,'. . Guest Writer
Love, says tradition, is where a
young ma's fancy turns when
spring is in the air. Since 1894,
however, spring finds student en
gineers at the University turning
their time and energy to En
gineer's week.
The department of electrical en
gineering gave birth to E-Week on
Feb. 15, 1894, when it decided to
put on a small exhibition for Chart
er Day.
According to scribes of the day,
the crowds who visited the new
electrical engineering building
were thrilled and amazed with dis
plays consisting of an artificial
coin tester, the production of cal
cium chloride in an electric fur
nace and a "Big Electromagnet."
In 1895 the electrical engineers
added many other '"splays and,
deciding to make a iition out
of it, called it their ' . t Annual
Exhibition."
Not to be outdone, the mechanic
al engineers stepped in with their
new mechanical engineering build
ing complete with modern labora
tory equipment. The other engin
eering departments picked up the
idea, and in 1913 the first Annual
Engineers' Week was held.
These hardy pioneers of annual
Engineers' Week had many other
ideas which seem to have fallen
by the wayside. Among them was
the depositing of their brother en
gineers who "goofed off" into a
water-filled horse tank. They also
held an annual skirmish with the
law students.
Engineers' Week has grown a
good deal since the first efforts by
the EE's. It is a time when the en
gineering student shows to others
the interest in his chosen field.
The slogan of this year's E-Week
is "Engineering Its All Around
You." It will be portrayed by

Dr. Rosenlof has returned from
San Juan, Puerta Rico, where he
was sent by the North Central As

The school is run by the U. S.

stationed in San Juan. It is under
consideration for full accreditation

Dr. Rosenlof inspected the school
and drew up a report of his find

If his findings are accepted by the
Association, graduates of the school
will be eligible for acceptance in
any college in the United States.
The program at the high school
is college preparatory and approx
imately 90 per cent of its graduates
will go to college.
Dr. Rosenlof said there are sev
eral private schools in Puerto Rico.
Spanish schools are fair academ
ically, he said.

El Moro where he received a desk
lighter made of the wood of the
award for obtaining his advanced
degree in history at the University
of California in Los Angeles. He is
