J M,, TIIE CGI.I,EGE GE ENGINEERING AND ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT STATION ENGINEERING HALL MILO SMITH KETCHUM, '95, Dean of the College of Engineering, was born in Burns, Illinois, on January 26, 1872. Since jnishing his undergraduate work, he has been constantly connected with universities, except for two brief periods. In 1897-9 he served as bridge and struc- tural engineer for the Gillett-Herzog Manufacturing Company, and in 1903-4 was with the American Bridge Company in Kansas City. Before assuming his present position in 1922, he served in similar capacities at the University of Colorado from 1905 to 1919, and at the University of Pennsylvania in 1919-20. DEAN MILO S. KETCHUM HE College of Engineering has ten departments of instruction and offers fourteen specialized curricula, namely, Architecture, Architectural Engineer- ing, Ceramic Chemistry, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Gas Engi- neering, General Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Engineering Physics, Railway Civil Engineering, Railway Electrical Engineer- ing and Railway Mechanical Engineering. The physical plant of the College of Engineering is extensive and its equipment for instruction and research is in most instances unexcelled. Its faculty includes many men who are everywhere recognized as authorities in their subjects. With these exceptional facilities, students in the College of Engineering have unusual opportunities for study in the fundamental sciences and in a great variety of highly specialized applications of these sciences in various divisions of industry. The effectiveness of the work of the College can best be gauged by the success of the large number of distinguished engineers and architects it has graduated. 1 ' I ,f' -f .ff K X I. f ' X N ff' J X J 'V' if -, ,J

On completing his undergraduate work here, he went to Harvard University, where he studied in 1910-11, returning to the University of Illinois in 1912 as an instructor in economics. He continued his graduate work here, receiving his Ph. D. the next year. Since that time he has been serv- ing continuously on the faculty, accept- ing his present position in 1919. DEAN CHARLES M. THOMPSON XACTLY twenty-tive years ago, instruction in business began at the Uni- versity of Illinois. Then the teaching faculty comprised four meng now it numbers eighty. Then the student body was a mere handfulg now it exceeds two thousand. The aim of the College of Commerce and Business Administration has been during all these years to train its students in sound, fundamental principles of j..f11 business. Educationally, therefore, its work resembles somewhat that carried A on in colleges of arts and sciences, the chief difference being that in the College 51113 of Commerce all students are required to major in economics, and in closely 15 A allied fields of study such as accounting, administration, organization and law.

The needs of the student who expects to return to the farm are 1 'js kept prominently in mind, and the record of the Alumni shows that 80 per cent V541 are engaged in agricultural work of some kind. A conscious effort has been made fl, 1 in formulating the curricula in agriculture, however, to make the course a Vfsfhf broadl cultural rather than anarrow technical one. The ob'ect is to make ood 1, A 531 y J .l g A I, citizens as well as good farmers and agricultural leaders.
