These courses assist the young men of today in attaining their desired vocations of tomorrow. Facilities Mold Uncountable Futures When our Arsenal closed its doors as a storehouse for munitions, it began serving its country again in another Way by furthering the education of young men and Women. A trade school, the Winona Technical ln- stitute, was established on November 8, 1904 but was forced to close in 1909 when it could no longer meet expenses. Later on May 22, 1915, the Supreme Court authorized this 76.14 acres to be held forever in trust for the sole purpose of maintaining an arts and trade school. To this day Tech is still expanding and advan- cing in these traditionally offered trade and vocational courses. At the present, through general, vocational and technical shop courses, individuals receive practical ex- perience in numerous difficult technical fields. Train- ing begins With the general shop course designed to introduce the student to shop work, initiate him to the uses and handling of materials and prepare him for higher fields of vocational Work. Cffering only carpen- try, printing and pattern making in its earlier days, the vocational department curriculum has continually ex- panded, training young men to meet the ever-increasing demand for experienced technicians and tradesmen. Printing, providing practical training in the skills necessary, teaches pupils various printing operations and introduces production methods. 23
