It ' s really three hundred acres ( wd The surveyors that dot the campus in spring have no intention of removing the university. They are only taking port in a laboratory offered by the civil engineering department. These men are being prepared to enter the construction field; to design and locate roads, bridges, tunnels, dams, and buildings. The department, under the supervision of Professor Dalzell M. Griffith, presents a very comprehensive series of courses that assures the students of complete knowledge of the field. Other laboratory work includes the testing of the properties of construction material Mopping for oerial photogrophers requires the use of the verticol sketchmoster These students are using an SR-4 Gouge in beam testing 28

In his senior year the student sees chemical engineering used in the manufacturing process in a week-long trip to industrial areas. This year the department toured sections of Western Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York, visiting approximately sixteen plants. The American Institute of Chemical Engineers has Profes- sor Albert H. Cooper, the head of the chemical engineering de- partment, as its advisor. Meetings feature speakers, movies, or inspection trips. This year the Bucknell chapter has been selected as host for a conference which includes the Middle Atlantic Group of student chapters of AlChE. DRAWING Mr. Harold A. Shaffer Mr. W.

Several times during the year the department sponsors inspection trips to view important structures in Central Pennsylvania. Civil engineering students take part in many activities centered about the American Society of Civil Engineers. All students in this field are eligible to join. The ASCE helps the student to prepare him- self for entry into the profession. Many movies are presented, and educational talks are given by well-informed men working in the field. On the Level is a bi-annual publication of the ASCE. A yearly banquet, picnic, and participation in the sectional meetings of the society are also included in the list of activities. Dr. Carl H.
