A graduate with a B.S. degree in Aeronautical Engineering may enter many phases of the aeronautical field. The ever- increasing advances in the field of aeronautics, such as the earth satellite program, will continue to offer a challenge to the engineer of the present and future. Benjamin L. Dow (Chairman), Lynn Cohen. .Joseph W. Cranmer, John Cochran, Tod B. Dixon (Chairman) . chemical engineering The Department of Chemical Engineering aims to develop the student into a well-rounded, competent, and socially adjusted graduate. The development of the ability to THINK is paramount. The project method of instruction is used in the laboratory which is equipped with standard pilot plant apparatus such as stills, evaporators, filter presses, and mass and en- ergy transfer units. The curriculum covers basic sci- ences, engineering sciences, applied science (engineer- ing) , and general subjects, which gives a broad founda- tion enabling the student to be employed in design, operation, sales, teaching, and research. 3° civil engineering Civil Engineering is the oldest of all the engineering fields. It has always been concerned with projects of both public and private nature that affect the social and economic life of the people. Originally, Civil Engineering was concerned with the construction of bridges, roads and buildings which are still major areas in the Civil Engineering field. In the last half-century, additional areas have been added to the field of Civil Engineering, such as: water supply, waste disposal, city planning, and traffic engineering. These are of importance for the public health and welfare. electrical engineering Electrical Engineering encompasses many and va- ried fields. The graduate electrical engineer may find himself working in the fields of radar, guided missiles and satellites, atomic energy, electronic computers, radio communications, television, control systems, power generation and distribution, and other numerous specialized phases of Electrical Engineering in com- mercial, industrial and military fields.

Macklin. mechanical engineering The Mechanical Engineer is responsible for the de- signing and building of machines to produce powei and the machines to utilize that power. Every manu- factured article, no matter what its nature, requires the services of Mechanical Engineers both in the de- sign of the machines by which it is manufactured and in the operation of the factory itself. Creative thinking is nurtured and encouraged in the Mechanical Engineering class rooms and in the Me- chanical Engineering Laboratories. chemistry Chemistry is the science of change, and serves as one of the main foundation stones for all Science and Engineering. It is one of the essential backgrounds for every educated man in this Technological Age. The Department of Chemistry not only serves to provide instruction in basic Chemistry for all Science and Engineering disciplines, but offers Advanced Courses in Chemistry for those interested in Research in industry or in further study in Graduate Schools.

English department The primary purpose of the English De- partment in an engineering school is to teach the engineering student to express himself effertively in both speech and writing. The English Department oiFers courses in com- position, literature, and speech so that the student may become a well-rounded person able to meet the challenges in life.

The Department of Mathe- matics offers a well-rounded course for the young mathematicians, as well as the essen- tial mathematics for the engineering, physics and chemistry students. 33 Richard Reeves, Ralph Bracht, Kozaburo Miyakawa (Chairman), Daniel Dwyer, Juana Santana, Chamanlal Patel. physics department If, as has been said, this is the atomic age, then this is the age of physics. Nuclear weapons and machines are products of the physics labora- tory. Each new day finds the physicists of our nation ever widening horizons of man ' s knowledge. Therefore, Indiana Institute of Technology meets the need for training in physics by offering basic and advanced courses de- signed to prepare a student either for direct participation in industry, or for a scientific career of the more traditional type. engineering graphics Engineering Graphics is a descriptive graphical language used by en- gineers and designers throughout the world to express, develop and record their ideas and information. Men of industry have indicated that Engineer- ing Graphics is not only important, but absolutely necessary. Students must have training in space visualization; they miwt develop their powers of analysis, synthesis, and creative thinking. Their abilities to develop and record ideas must be constantly challenged. 34 Lee Bernhardt (Chairman), Dwight Case.

They were Manoucher Monsef and Jeff Davis. The Warriors were only able to win their opening game with Goshen College. They then faltered, losing four in a row. They were only able to salvage a tie with Indiana University and then finished the season by losing two more games. The most outstanding feature of the season was the consistent play of freshman Steven Pittl. In his very first collegiate game he tied the school record for most goals scored in a single game with two goals. Other bright spots included the play of Dominic Arbitrio, Manuel Medina, and Wjoah Boayue, all of whom were freshmen. 76 anges, Oranges — get your oranges here. but we got this one Just missed that one . 77 i ll nil iiri nil liMii nil First Row: Jerry Dowden, Terry Hawk, Dan Helkcr.

Don Kiewett earned the team batting crown. Tech ' s most valuable players were the ace pitcher Dan Lambert, who had four victories, and the hustling shortstop Dan Helker. The team posted a record fielding average of .924. With John Hamil- ton being the only player to be graduated, the experi- ence gained this year will help in producing a well- rounded team. 78 golf team The Tech putters, coached by Ben Dow, fashioned a 4-3 record in match play. In tournament play, the team placed second in the Mid-Central Conference Tournament and eleventh out of twenty-one colleges in the Little State Annual Golf Match. Robert Ashby played in the number-one position this year and is the only member to be lost through graduation. Ed Gillen and Woody Stillwagon will be strong contenders for the number-one slot next year. ROBERT ASHBY Ben Dow (Coach), Ed (lillen, Jim Nelson. Larry Beer- man, Woodrow Stillwagon.

Don Crissman was selected as the Most Valuable Player. Next fall ' s squad should be strong with the return of Howard Grayless and Don Crissman. 80 The thin-clads, coached by Bob Macy, were ham- pered this year by a lack of depth on the team and the loss of half of the practice field. The team ' s main strength was in the dashes. New school records were set by Gerald Fletcher in the 440-yard dash and Homer Fager, Ted Washington, Charles McKim and Gerald Fletcher in the mile relay. The young team picked up invaluable experience which, coupled with their great spirit, will prove beneficial next year.

Theta Tau Ujjsilon Fraternity was originated on April 7, 1962, by sixteen students of Indiana Insritute of Technology with the basic purpose of becoming a National Fraternity. The membership grew until 38 men were granted charter membership. The members then resigned themselves to the task of reaching the initial goal. The Fraternity standards were estabUshed to instill a strong foimdation and to make membership a true honor and privilege. The basic ideals of the Fraternity were to promote high academic standards, provide a useful service to college and community, to guide and manage gentle- manly conduct at all times, to always put forth with highest moral character, and to develop an unsurpass- able union of brotherhood that will serve as a guide throughout a Ufetime. theta tau upsilon 7 Front Row: Bill Ficy, George Perna, Gerald Berbaum, Vinay Khanna.

Its constitution is the law of an organization pred- icated upon, and dedicated to, the principles of achieve- ment through a democratic fraternity. Preparation of the coat of arms was completed dur- ing the summer of 1911 by three of the founders who solicited the aid of a professor of Greek Art at the Indiana University together with that of a professor of Greek at Concordia University.

The national association maintains records on all members: active, sustaining, honorary and associate. It provides assistance to all graduates in their school, business and social life. Contrary to popular belief, the Alumni Relations Office, located on Center Drive, just south of the President ' s Office, is not operated exclusively for In- diana Tech graduates. On-canipus students are invited to visit the offices at any time when the staff can offer constructive coun- sel regarding campus or alumni activities. Any student is welcome to drop in for a visit if for no other purpose than to learn what the National Alumni Association accomplishes for its members and what is expected of graduates after they have left the campus. The Association looks on each student as a poten- tial alumnus, who will some day become a vital part of the foundation on which the College is built. Col- lege graduates everywhere share the psychological urge to be identified as a member of the group, which is perhaps better described as the desire for belong- ing. Truly once a student earns the title alumnus, he enters an exciting new part of the brotherhood of man. Alumni Homecoming is a big annual event on campus, but graduates and former students are welcome to visit any time. Any College is what it is perceived to be. The Pub- lic Relations O ce is charged with the responsibility of determining what the image of Indiana Institute of Technology is and with seeing that this image is an accurate reflection of the many facets of the College. In order to properly fill its raison d ' etre, the Public Relations Office must interrelate a complex of publics, including students, faculty, alumni, community, busi- ness, religious, and many other groups. Each year many students become familiar with this office because of the service it renders in aiding them with special and extracurricular events. As a result of this service and the nature of its function, the PubHc Relations Office also helps the student gain an awareness of many other groups and organizations outside the sphere of school activities. Winifred Troyer, Public Relations staff secretary, pre- pares a publicity information card for the extensive rec- ords maintained by the Public Relations Office. public relations m Lou Gulp is Director of both Public and Alumni Relations for the College, and also handles the activities of the News Bureau. Offices for all three areas of activity are located in Summit House on Center Drive. Right, Harold Belt, working in conjunction with Vice- president and Treasurer C. A.
