At the same time they saw tangible evidence of the continuing development and growth of Tech which Included: the inauguration of Tech ' s new president; the acquisition of the Anthony building and many new classrooms for the Freshman Division; the acquisition of a new dormitory, Kalbflelsch Hall, which was made possible by the generous gift of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Pierson; and the plans for additional dormitory and living space for students in the proposed Alumni Center which will be started as soon as gifts from Tech alumni make it feasible to begin construction. In honored memory of the distinguished educational achievements of the founder of this college. ... In heartfelt gratitude to those whose generous gifts created this struc- ture. ... To the welfare of all students who in years to come will share these facil- ities. ... To the glory of Eternal Sod and for the good of all mankind. . . .

THOMA In today ' s world, engineering and science hold one of the keys to freedom fronn want, from ignor- ance, from disease, from slavery imposed by man and nature. But engineering and science are only a means — not an end. If they become the end, then man is less human — and a great deal less than his Creator intended him to be. It is the aim and pur- pose of this college that its graduates shall use their president technological educations wisely and generously, for the common good. As we chart our course into the future, we who are the officers and trustees of this institution are deeply grateful for the fine students, the able teach- ers and the faithful friends who have built this col- lege, and sustained it through years of struggle, and given It an honored name.

Earthbound navigation courses have been supplanted by spacial navigation. Structural analysis courses have shifted the emphasis from triangulated, determinant frames to the indeterminate, stressed-skin structures. Math- ematics continues (in its radically advanced forms) to be an important tool in this field. This department continues as one using the most advanced scientific information to help develop and produce modern means of transportation through our atmosphere and through space beyond. Beniamln Dow (Chairman) Bennett Kemp, explaining the wind tunnel on Tech Day. 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 ThHINK 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 energy transfer units. The curriculum covers basic sciences, engineering sciences, applied science (engineering), and gen- eral subjects, which gives a broad foundation en- abling the student to be employed in design, operations, sales, teaching, and research.

It has always been concerned with projects of both public and private nature that effect the social and econonnic 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 varied fields. The graduate electrical engineer may find himself working in the fields of radar, guided missiles and satelli+es, atomic energy, electronic computers, radio communications, television, con- trol systems, power generation and distribution, and other numerous specialized phases of Electrical Engineering.

Every manufactured article, no matter what its nature, requires the services of Mechanical Engineers both in the design of the machines by which it is manu- factured and in the operation of the factory itself. Creative thinking is nurtured and encouraged In the Mechanical 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 back- grounds for every educated man in this Tech- nological Age. The Department of Chemistry not only serves to provide instruction in basic Chemistry for all Science and Engineering disciplines, but offers Ad- vanced Courses In Chemistry for those interested in Research in Industry or In further study in Graduate Schools.

The English Department offers courses in composition, literature, and speech so that the student may become a well-rounded person able to meet the challenges in life. mathematics department In our complex society, scientific progress de- pends on the mathematician, the engineer and many other scientists whose primary tool is math- ematics. The Department of Mathematics offers a well-rounded course for the young mathema- ticians, as well as the essential mathematics for the engineering, physics and chemistry students.

Each new day finds the physicists of our nation expanding the horizons of man ' s knowledge. Therefore, Indiana Institute of Technology meets the need for training in physics by offering basic and ad- vanced courses designed to prepare a student either for direct participation in Industry, or for a scientific career of the more traditional type. engineering graptiics The engineer must have a thorough l nowledge of Engi- neering Graphics if he is not to be considered an engineering Illiterate . This Is the language by which the engineer com- municates with others of his profession, draftsmen and tech- nicians for whose work he is responsible to his employer, and others in his broad field of endeavor. Industry has indicated that it considers this one of the most important subjects of which a newly employed graduate engineer must have knowl- edge. Engineering Graphics assists in the development of creative ability by training in space visualization. It develops the powers of analysis and synthesis. It provides a superior means of developing, and recording. Ideas for posterity. It Is, in other words, a tool of greatest Importance to all who anticipate a future In Engineering. 34 Lee Bernhardt (Chairman) Dwight Case Robert Macy Jerre McManama The Humanities and Social Sciences in the college cur- riculum present the HHistoric, literary, artistic, and philo- sophical heritage of our culture along with the accumulation of knowledge in the behavioral sciences. humanities and social sciences 35 President Thoma shown accepting the Anthcjny Building Directory fronn Donald Cathcart, president of the Senior class.

The team began the season with seven consecutive victories and aver- aged 104 points per game. With aggressive and alert team work, the War- riors captured their second R.I.T. Tourney champ- ionship. Ron Zigler was selected the Most Valuable Player of the tournament. Dave hHickman and Ron Zigler were selected for the all-tourney team. Tech played Tri-State before a capacity crowd for the Bungling Boiler Trophy. Trailing 50 to 46 at half time, the team lead by Ron Zigler made a come- back and won going away. Typical of the team ' s come-from-behlnd, spirited team efforts was the first Manchester contest. Be- Tech ' s Cheering squad. 74 hind 29 to 8 early in the first half and losing 58 to 38 after the first stanza, Tech came charging back. Led by Dave Carroll and Dave Hickman, Man- chester ' s lead was cut to two points with 20 sec- onds left in the game. Ron Zigler ' s equalizing shot was blocked as time ran out. By defeating Grace on the last game of the re g- ular season, the Warriors become co-champions of the Mid-Central Conference. This year Tech re- ceived its first invitation to play in a post season tournament. On receiving the invitation Coach Macy went swimming In the icy St. Joseph River to make good a promise made at the beginning of the season. The Coach promised the team he would jump in the river if Tech played in a post season tourney. Tech ' s opponent in the NAIA playoffs was Man- chester. The Warriors fell behind early in the game and were able to get within two points of Man- chester at one time. But Manchester pulled out In front again and were not to be denied. The hlonorary Captain, Dave Carroll lead the team In scoring during the season with 23.4 average per game and a school record of 679 points in one season. Ron Zigler ' s 472 rebounds during the sea- son established a school record. John Gres was selected the most Improved play- er as he averaged 9.6 points per game and totaled 72 assists.

The chief objective of this organization is to promote and to inculcate high ideals and attitudes of scholarship among the members of the student body of Indiana Institute of Technology. In order to become a member of lota Tau Kappa, an engineering student must have a grade-point average of 3.5 or more for four terms, not necessarily consecutive terms. At least sixteen college credit hours shall comprise each of these four terms. 122 Kappa Alpha Psl, a college fraternify now com- prised of more than 200 undergraduate and alumni chapters on major campuses and in cities throughout the country, boasts a membership of over 20,000. It was founded in the school year of 1910-11 on the campus of Indiana University at Bloomington, In- diana. Its constitution is the law of an organization predicated upon and dedicated to, the principles of achievement through a democratic fraternity. Preparation of the coat of arms was completed during the summer of 191 I 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 second chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi was chartered in 1913. kappa alpha First Row: Eugene Seward, Charlie Sheppard, President: James Kelly, Pledgemaster: Richard Gibbs.

On-campus students are invited to visit the offices at any time when the staff can offer constructive counsel 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 accomplish es for its members and what is expected of graduates after they have left the campus. The Association looks on each student as a po- tential alumnus, who will some day become a vital part of the foundation on which the College is built. College graduates everywhere share the psychologi- cal urge to be identified as a member of the group, which is perhaps better described as the desire for belonging. Truly once a stixJent earns the title alumnus, he enters an exciting new part of the brotherhood of man. Bob Harold Is the Executive Secretary of the National Alumni Association, The national association maintains records on all members: active, sustaining, honorary and associate. It pro- vides assistance to all graduates in their school, business and social lite. relations witli industry program Since August 1962 the college has been making a determined, full-time effort to establish and main- tain a genuine useful working relationship with In- dustry and Business in the greater Fort Wayne area. This has been done by promoting, setting up and coordinating Research, Development and Testing projects, and setting up our Coop Engineering Pro- gram and special courses for the Evening Division with Industry and Business. 132 Kenneth Loughmiller, Director Industrial Relations Center and Relations with Industry Program. public relations The Public Relations Department Is re- sponsible for Interpreting Indiana Tech ' s policies and people to a variety of pub- lics. The Department deals with all forms of communication Involving the printed and spoken word. It Is directly concerned with most of the College ' s publications, the Is- suance of releases by the News Bureau, many of the details concerned with special events like the Artist-Celebrity Series and commencement ceremonies, and works In close cooperation with such departments as College Development and Alumni Rela- tions. Most of these responsibilities are con- cerned with off-campus publicity and pro- motion, but it is also Involved in working with students and faculty to bring about better understanding of Internal problems. Shown above are Lou Culp (right), director of Public Relations, and Winifred Troyer (left), staff secretary. Lou Culp, Director; Winifred Troyer, Staff Secretary. college development Fund raising and student recruitment are major considerations of the College Development Depart- ment. Tuition fees are never sufficient to cover edu- cational costs; so capital gifts, annual gifts, and endowments must be sought from business and in- dustrial firms, foundations, alumni, and private citi- zens. Building programs and all long-range planning for future development and expansion of the Col- lege are also responsibilities of the Department. The llfebloed of the College is, of course, its enrollment and the College Development Department Is con- stantly devising new ways of attracting qualified students to the campus. It is obvious that student enrollment must keep pace with the growth of fa- cilities, and vice versa.
