Calteclfs Antecedents . . . . . The school from which the California Insti- tute of Technology has grown was Throop University, established in 1891 by Amos G. Throop. In the following year it was determined to make the manual training departments the leading feature of the institution, renamed the Throop Polytech- nic Institute. Throop Polytechnic offered majors in science and the arts, was co- educational. Enrollment increased to 620 in 1907. The school was located on Chester Street, between Fair Oaks and Raymond, where some of the buildings still stand today. In 1908, it was decided to revise and limit the curriculum to departments of Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineer- ing. In the following year the newly elected President, Dr. James A. B. Scherer, and Dr. George E. Hale toured America and Europe to gather the best educational prece- dent for the new conception of the Throop Polytechnic Institute. The Institute was transferred to the pres- ent campus in 1910, with an enrollment of thirty-four men, utilizing the just dedicated Pasadena Hall, the building now known as Throop Hall.
