Ten years ago the Institute first opened its doors. In this brief period history has been made. Speaking from a more or less intimate association with the activities of the student body outside the classroom during this time, among the most significant of the developments manifest today arc the changing social ideals here. There is a growing sense of mutual respect, greater emphasis is laid upon the formation of independent judgment based on a truer sense of values; these are sure signs of a genuine democracy. In short, a belief that the aim here to train men and women, not alone in scholarship but to become good members of society, is a practical one, and easy of accomplishment when recognized by the students themselves. In these days of kaleidoscopic changes in our world relations this is worth while, and is attributable in a large degree to the influence of the graduates which has been commensurate with their increased interest in undergraduate life. Congratulations to the Decennial Editors of “The Thistle.” William P. Field.

TEN YEARS OF TECH Elsewhere in this number of “The Thistle” will doubtless appear many allusions to the interesting fact that with the 1915 Commencement, the Carnegie Institute of Technology completes the first decade in her history. The story of the ten years would be a long one in the telling, as few educational institutions have been so fortunately situated as to travel so far in such a comparatively short period of time, but it can be condensed into a little group of figures that will serve to fix in the mind some conception of what our growth has been. 1905-06 1914-15 Number of students. 765 3223 Faculty 61 211 Graduates 00 1410 Numbers of Departments . 12 32 Number of Buildings 2 10 Annual Expenditures ....
