The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 E-Week Research Gives Benefits THURSDAY, APRIL 27 1967 By Mark Gordon Junior Staff Writer Although engineering fa ' cultv and graduate student research projects don't di rectly influence Thursday's E-Week open house dis plays, all engineering stu dents benefit from E-Week events, faculty members and students said Wednes day. James S. Blackman, as sociate dean of the college of engineering and archi tecture, said that although there is no direct connec tion between research proj ects and E-Week there are indirect benefits passed on to students by faculty re search. New Ideas He said research provides new ideas and since the fa culty members engaged in research while instructing undergraduates, so research indirectly influences stu dents by updating teaching. "Teachers who are on the cutting edge of knowledge also have to be engaged in research," he added. While most research proj ects have no connection with the o p e n house ex hibits, research projects are directly related to several displays. The exhibits can be seen Thursday from 2-10 p.m. in Ferguson, Richards, Stout and Bancroft Halls. N. M. Bashara, professor of electrical engineering, is studying changes in the op tical properties of thin met al films subjected to a high electric or magnetic field. Magnetic Field A related, although less complex display construct ed by several electrical en gineering students il lustrates how a magnetic field affects polarized light passing through a lizuid. The magnetic field causes the light particles to rotate, which also rotates the di rection of the polarized light. Connected with the dis play of several agricultural engineers showing the path underground water follows into a well, is a research project by Ralph R.

The project's purpose is to store water in the fround for the two or three days a year when Lincoln doesn't have an adequate water supply. Wells that are running dry would be recharged from other wells producing during light demand peri ods providing more water sources during peak de mand periods. Develop Information While the displays are in formative ' and interesting, Dean Blackman said they also give students an op portunity to develop their own ideas. "Engineering is basically a profession which demands persons to look ahead, plan and estimate," he said. "Unless students have a function like E-Week, the mere operation of courses is just subject matter as they can't plan on their own." Larry DrbaL E-Week co chairman said that most projects are based on en gineering concepts that are picked up in the classroom or laboratory, reading mag azines and discovering new ideas. Jim Chevalier, E-Week co-chairman said that the displays give students ex perience in the practical as pect of engineering and "this is what E-Week shows how the everyday work of an engineer effects the public." High School Attendance He said that the engineer ing department has invited 415 high school students to attend a Thursday convo cation luncheon and guided tour by engineering stu dents. Lyle E. Young, assistant dean of the college of en gineering and architecture said the project will help some of the high school students considering engin eering as a career by giv ing them a better idea of the department Chevalier explained that WOK WHO'S MEMBERS WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOV ACQUIRE A NEW DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE IN REAL CLOTHES FOR COLLEGE.
