Nuclear Engineering Shares Research With Undergraduate Schools NE 612 EXPN? D CD fV0 T fouc H Although the Nuclear Engineering de- partment is known officially as a gradu- ate school, many undergraduate schools participate in research within the de- partment. Such facilities as a five mega- watt heavy water reactor, a pulsed fast neutron beam generator, a one mev Van de Graff generator and a 12,000 curie ce- sium 137 radiation source attract not only the attention of other departments but potential graduate students as well. Several of the major study areas include reactor technology, energy conversion and space power, nuclear propulsion and radiation utilization to mention only a few. TOP RIGHT: Dr. C. I.

ME Gffers Broad Mechanical Engineerin offers a broad based program aime toward the serious engineering student. Although most entering freshmen enter into such glamorous fields as AE, many will even- tually return to ME as they discover its diversity is more suited to their needs. It is broa enough to include almost any facet of engineering. Many people have the mistaken con- cept that an ME is someone who carries a wrench in his pocket and a can of oil around his neck. However, ME is far from being a haven for car mechanics. It can and does offer perhaps the broadest groglram in engineering available at ec Program S. C. Barnet! 1. Baumgarten W. O. Carlson S. L.

Initiates Exercise Program The purpose of the physical training department here at Tech is to keep the Tech student in shape physically while he goes through the mental strain before graduation. Freshman courses include applications in swimming, track and gym while the sophomore enjoys the more recreational sports of tennis, foot- ball, and basketball, all with slight vari- ations according to the season. This year the department offered a supple- mentary course for juniors and seniors who have completed the requirements of the basic courses. This course in- volved the application of exercise once a week for students who were inter- ested in keeping fit. fi I
