ENGINEERING BUILDING

Electrical currents and railroad curves mingle with cosines and tangents in this temple of empire builders, the Engineering building. Behind its por- tals men study who will someday build a higher Eiffel tower, or a better Brooklyn bridge. To the right lies the memorial stadium, scene of many grid- iron battles. To the left one sees Kedzie hall and the main campus drive. Behind the building is the roaring giant of heat and light, the new power plant. Across the little valley to the front, one may see the spring football men hitting the line, and tennis rackets swinging smartly. From around the right of the hall there often emerges a happy group returning from a baseball game or an intramural contest. msmfi S S ii-

Z0 S Dedicated to one of the oldest and most honorable professions of man, agriculture, Waters hall shelters the northern portion of the campus with its two white limestone wings. Across the valley one sees the residence of college women, Van Zile hall. To the right one may see the oldest building on the campus, farm mechanics hall. To the north lies the livestock barns, the old serum plant road, and the poultry pens. From the rear, the low- ing of cattle and the smell of new mown hay indicate that ours is a college of practice as well as theory. hHenry Jackson Waters, for whom the hall is named, was president of the college from 1907 until 1917.
