Brandt Dean East Ad THE aim of the College during the first two years is to train the student in various types of fundamental courses, thus enabling him to lay a foundation for training in some special field during his junior and senior years, either in a professional school or in a major department of the College itself. The purpose of the College is well stated in the following: The remarkable development of these technical curricula in recent years has been based very largely on the progress which has been made in the basic sciences underlying these fields of instruction The combination of applied science intended not only to prepare young men and women to succeed in some definite technical work, but also to lead a successful and well-rounded life.
