Further specialization, developed in 1873, increased the scope of the engineering field to include ten major departments. These ten departments now give instruction to some 3,300 student engineers, making the Division of Engineering the largest in the col- lege, surpassing the Division of Agriculture by nearly l,000 students. Courses in the three main engineering halls - Marston, Electrical Engineering and Agri- cultural Engineering- stress the analytical and thoughtful approach to problems. Evidently this goal is achieved, for the di- vision consistently ranks among the nation's top ten engineering schools both in standards and in enrollment. The students of the division are united through their governing body, the Engineering Council. Socially, the group promotes two large col- lege functions, the Engineers' Carnival and the Christmas Ball. The Carnival is an all-college event. The Christmas Ball, promoted for the hrst time this year, replaced the Engineers' Ball.

DIVISIO 0F GI EEBING N AN ERA OF proposed travel to the moon, faster- than-sound airplanes and mechanized society, engi- neers and their knowledge are becoming an essential part of every-day life. Engineering progress in household equipment, auto- mobiles, television, and highway improvements have be- come a safeguard to our peace of mind. Developments in the instruments of warfare have become, more or less, a safeguard to our peace. VVorking from annual grants of approximately 35422,- 000, research workers in engineering at Iowa State con- tribute their share to national progress in the engineer- ing fields. Extension workers take these results into the field and apply them. Students, receiving the facts in classrooms, learn them for application to the research and study of the future. DEAN J. F. D. SMITH
