Dugan, President President Presumably, those of you who have been graduated from Indiana Tech this past year are now ready to apply your knowledge to the solution of problems within your chosen discipline. There is very little else your col- lege can do for you in this respect. The various traumas to which our Country is subjected with unfortunate regularity lead me to request something from you, other than the routine loyalty to your alma mater. If indeed, your education has equipped you to assume some role in the arena of intellectual leadership, then I feel you have an obligation to carry it beyond the scope of your profession. There are groups of people, there are organizations, and there are individuals today who need your help. Because of your education you have this help to give but you must first be concerned, and being concerned, you must then become involved. Shy away from this involvement, as many of our citizens do, and you may find yourself very successful as a professional engineer or sci- entist but not as a human being. It is possible for our times to change for the better — I believe they must. This change will occur much more quickly if those of us fortunate enough to have received a college education become involved. Progress, whether it be social or scientific, has never been a spectator sport and I urge you, for Indiana Tech, to leave the grandstand and get on to the field. Edward A.

Earthbound navigation courses have been supplanted by special navigation. Structural analysis courses have shifted the em- phasis from triangulated deter- minant frames to the indetermin- ate, stressed-s k i n structures. Mathematics continues to be an important tool in this field. This department continues as one us- ing the most advanced scientific information to help develop and produce modern means of trans- portation through space beyond. Mr. Kemp in the Aero Lab Bennett Kemp 55 Chemical Engineering Dr. Todd Dixon, head of the Chemical Engineering Department ■■ I fc MM 1 Dr. William West Professor Joseph Cranmer 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 energy transfer units. The curriculum covers basic sciences applied science and general subjects, which give a broad foundation enabling the student to be employed in design, operations, sales, teaching, and research. 56 Dr. Warren Hoffman, head of the Chemistry Department Chemistry Chemistry is the science of change, and serves as one of the main founda- tions for all Science and Engineering. It is one of the essential backgrounds for every educated man in the Technological Age. The Department of Chemistry not only serves to provide instruction in basic Chemistry for all Science and Engi- neering disciplines, but offers advanced courses in Chemistry for those interested in Research in industry or in further study in Graduate Schools. Robert Swindell 57 35 Dr. Louis Petro, Head of the Civil Engineering Department Civi Engineering Professor Robert Ruhl Eugene Russel William Schrader, instructor Civil Engineering is the oldest of all the engineering fields. It has always been concerned with projects of both public and private nature that effect the social and economic life of the people. Originally, Civil Engineering was con- cerned with the construction of bridges, and road building which are still major areas in the civil 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 ' s health and welfare. 58 Dr. Eugene Klingler, Head of the Electrical Engineering Department Delbert Kneeper, student instructor 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 satellites, atomic energy, electronic computors, radio communica- tions, television, control systems, power generation and distribution, and other numerous specialized phases of Electrical Engineering Professor Richard Dermer Abdou-Abou Antoune 59 Engineering Graphics Lee Bernhardt, head of the Engineering Graphics Department Dwight Case The engineer must have a thorough knowledge of Engineer- ing Graphics if he is not to be considered an engineering il- literate. This is the language by which the engineer communicates with others of his profession, draftsmen and technicians for whose work he is responsible. In- dustry has indicated that it con- siders this one of the most im- portant subjects of which a newly employed graduate engineer must have knowledge. Engineer- ing Graphics assists in the de- velopment of creative ability by training in space visualization. It develops the powers of analysis and synthesis. It provides a super- ior means of developing and re- cording ideas for posterity. 60 i m Helen Dinius English Vonne Meussling The primary purpose of the English Department in an Engi- neering College is to teach the engineering student to express himself effectively in both speech and writing. 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. 61 Humanities Dr. Meredith Sprunger, head of the Humanities Department The Humanities and Social Sciences in the college cur- riculum present the historic, literary artistic and philo- sophical heritage of our culture along with the accumulation of knowledge in the behavioral sciences. Thomas Keyser Herbert Meussling David Schlundt 62 II Hi Nil Dr. Ivan Planck, head of the Mechanical Engineering Department, assisting a student. Howard Macklin Robert Marshall, helps a student in Elements of Material Science The Mechanical Engineer is responsible for the designing and build- ing of machines to produce power and the machines to utilize that power. Every manufactured article, no matter what its nature, requires the services of Mechanical Engineers both in the design of the ma- chines by which it is manufactured and in the operation of the fac- tory itself. Creative thinking is nurtured and encouraged in the Mechanical en- gineering laboratories. Mechanical Engineering Jack Quinn 63 Charles Cam, head of the Mathematics Department Robert Leeper Mathematics A student In the computor room Hong-i Yang Jerald Van Meter 64 Gordon Cole In our complex society, sci- entific progress depends on the mathematician, the engi- neer and many other sci- entists whose primary tool is mathematics. The department of Mathematics offers a well rounded course for the young mathematician, as well as the essential mathematics for the engineering, physics, and chemistry students. Juana Santana Jar Doh ner Harry Mellert Dwight Keclc 65 Physics Daniel Dwyer Dr. Raymond Smith 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 physicist of our na- tion expanding the horizons of man ' s knowledge. Therefore, Indiana Institute of Technology meets the need for training in physics by offering basic and advanced courses designed to prepare a stu- dent either for direct participation in industry, or for a scientific career of the more traditional type- Leonard Etter A Dr. Kozaburo Miyalcawa, chairman.
