They fell nolhing of fhe educalor who, wilh firmness of purpose, founded Lawrence lnsl'i'i'ufe of Technology. Dean Russell Ellsworih Lawrence saw in his imaginafion ihe creaiion and 'fufure developmenf of a college of engineering, dedicaiecl +o lhe educafion of engineers as leaders in a dynamic sociely. The dream was rich and 'Fer'l'ile, as was ihe mind of +he dreamer. The depression was full upon fhe na+ion, magnifying H-ie difliiculiies of birlh a hundredfold. bean Russell Ellsworfh Lawrence accepied 'rhe chal- lenge wi+l1 characlerisfic enfhusiasm, forliiude, and cledicaiion. Thus fhe dream begafni fo lake form. Due lo his unfimely deaih lwo years lalef, Dean Lawrence did noi see lhe 'full realizafion of his dream. Alfhough his parl' of making 'lhe dream comeirue was sh,or'l-lived, ii' is difficull fo believe 'I'ha'r, wi+houl' his con- viclions and inspiralion. Lawrence lnsfilufe of Technology could have afiained Hs presenl' slaius as a leading college of engineering. Seven To Realization President E. G. LAWRENCE In fhe face of seemingly insurmounlable odds George E. Lawrence grasped The dream 'rhaf had been his brol'her's ancl devofed his life io fulfill if. Thus he became one of 'rhe counfry's youngesi college presi- denfs. George Lawrence brealhed hope and vi'rali+y info +he young college and if grew and ma+ured inlo +he fine insfifuiion if is loday. The lransi+ion from Lawrence Tech's firs+ conceplion 'io our preseni' dayhof prosperiiy was fhe clireci' resul+ of 'Phe wise planning and foresighi' of Presidenl' Lawrence. Years of planning, hoping, and hard worlc cul- minafed in Lawrence Tech finding a new home of her own in I955. This beauiiful edifice shall siand as a lasiing monumenl fo a man who, wiih faiih and deferminaiion, broughf one man's dream 'ro vivid nealify. Our beloved Presiclenf, George E. Lawrence.

RACKWAY 1887-1955 1 F rr Not only the L-Book staff, but every member of the student body of Lawrence Institute of Technology, unanimously chose as their dedicatee the recent, well loved Professor John S. Rackway. The many ways in which he assisted us to greater heights . . . the friendly way he greeted us in classes . . , the way he responded to each of our particular needs in his field . . . all of these are but a part of our knowing this fine educator, this friend of students and men. The more one called upon him for advice, the more one felt that he was great in all -fiel-ds of engineering, and that his advice was sound, basic and effective in advancing students in their engineering endeavors. Men of this stature do not pass our way often in life . . . he is not only missed by the student body, but by the whole faculty and administrative body of our institution. A man of many accomplishments, he was a State Examined fDip. Eng.D Diploma Engineer. Technical University of Berlin, 1912, Instructor, 1920-23 and Professor, 1923-35 at School of Engineering, Berlin, Assistant Professor of Higher School of Engineering, Berlin, 1924-26. Technical University of Berlin, 1925-33, Instructor of Mathematics, Shanghai, China 1939-40, Shortly thereafter, and until his demise, he was associated with us as Department Head of Engineering Drawing. As an Artist, Educator, Humorist, Eloquent Speaker, and-an active member of Phi Kappa Upsilon Fraternity he participated in all school functions, activities, dances, and parties, To all of us who knew him, we still feel his presence among us . . . his guiding hand encouraging us on and on . . , his friendly warmth still shining . . . and we will ever know the advantages of his technical know-how that he generously showered upon us. Each of us feels that he. who has given so much to each of our lives, must surely be in for a reward and each of us knows that he must be at peace with His Maker . . . iust as he was among us . . .

As Director, Dean Ryan arranged the curricula tor the various programs offered and supervised th-eir presentation. ln this capacity he lcept in close contact with both high schools and industry. ln July, l955, Dean Ryan accepted new responsibilities when he became Dean ot the Engineering College. Aside trom his duties at Lawrence Tech, he is an active member of The American Society ot Engineering Education, The American Society tor Metals.

GRAEFFE, DEAN Industrial Management College Docfor Graeffe was one of a small group of men, along wifh Dean Russell E. Lawrence, who firsf recognized fhe need of esfablishing a new engineering college. Through 'che years fhe col- lege has grown from a small handful of sfuclenfs fo a maior engineering college of nearly fhree fhousand sfudenfs under fhe helpful guidance of Docfor Graeffe. Experience and background are valuable assefs which provide Docfor Graeffe wifh a broad un- dersfanding of world affairs. He received his col- lege educafion af fhe Universify of Tubingen, Germany. ln acldifion fo fhese assefs his work has carried him fo various parfs of fhe world. This vasf background of experience is infer- woven info his many inferesfing lecfures on ac- counfing, economics, and business law. Having once been a lawyer himself, Docfor Graeffe sfresses fhe necessify of clean, logical fhinking on all decisions we find if necessary fo make. Docfor Graeffe has proved himself an excellenf adminisfrafor as well as feacher in his capacify as Dean of fhe lndusfrial Managemenf College. Seventeen Department Chairmen When fhe successive evenfs of college life draw fo an end a+ gradualion, fhe sluclenfs remember wifh pride fhe faculfy of 'the Lawrence lnsfiiufe of Technology. The faculfy consisis of full-Time and par'r-lime insfrucfors.

LAWRENCE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY 21000 WEST TEN IvIII..E ROAD DETROIT 19, MICHIGAN Dear Senior: This is your big year, the one in which you graduate from college. How long have you been going to school? It has been a long, difficult grind, hasn't it? I am proud of you for the courage and resolute spirit which has made this achievement possible. With such solemn proof of your moral fiber and intellectual maturity, I have no questions about your future success. You can and you will make LIT proud to be known as your Alma Mater. We can build many buildings and win many victories but the real, lasting reputation of the college rests with you. Your college will never be any better than the career you build for yourself. Make it big. Sincerely, PT sident Thirty College of Engineering The general purposes of fhe Lawrence lnsfifufe of Tech- nology are fwo-fold: firsf, fo provide a high sfandard of college educafion, and second, fo provide fhe nafion wifh young men who are specifically frained fo mainfain and develop ifs indusfry and commerce. Lawrence lnslifufe of Technology was incorporafed in l932. The charfer provides full aufhorify fo confer Bach- elor of Science and also advanced degrees in fhe 'following fields of engineering: Archifecfural, Civil, lndusfrial, Elec- frical, Mechanical, and lndusfrial Managemenf.

These technicians require a working knowledge of physics, chemistry, mathematics, electricity, technical drawing and English, as well as a general knowledge of the problems confronting industry today. They must through actual experience have developed initiative, reasoning ability, discrimination, judgment and self-confidence so that they can apply the knowledge they have acquired to practical technical prob- lems and produce satisfactory results in a minimum of time. The Technical Institute offers specialized programs of study designed to meet the demand for engineering technicians. These programs closely parallel engineering college curriculums. The Engineers' Council for Professional Development is one nationally recognized agency which accredits technical institute curricula. This body has defined programs of study which are of the technical institute type by stating the purpose is to prepare individuals for various technical positions or lines of activity encompassed within the field of engineering. The Technical Institute has used this definition as a guide in the organization, devel- opment and operation of its programs of study. Upon completion of the required sub- iects the following men will be eligible for an Associate in Engineering degree in Building Construction, Electrical and Electronic, Industrial Supervision, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, or Mechanical Technology.
