In 1935, authority was granted for the award of Master ' s degrees in both engineering and chemistry. In 1937, by virtue of a special appropriation of the State, Louis Pasteur Hall was put under construction. This was a three-story addition to the old Colonial Avenue Building. The story of Textile during the years of World War II is told elsewhere in this book. Since the end of the war, Textile has again become a beehive of activity with both improvements and plans for ex- pansion. The retirement of President Charles H. Eames brought about the appointment of one of our own grad- uates as President, Kenneth R. Fox. President Fox is revamping and im- proving the curriculum to meet present day demands on textile graduates. He is assisting in the reorganization of student activities which disappeared during the war. The extremely active and interested Board of Trustees has brought to a successful conclusion its efforts towards expansion of the physical facilities of the school. These plans include the construction of dormitories, a Science Building, an Administration Building, and a Recreational Building. The chairman of the Planning Board, an- other Textile man, Mr. Samuel Pinan- ski, has come to be known as Uncle Sam for his untiring efforts in this direction. In 50 years, Lowell Textile Institute, as it is now known, has more than doubled its floor space and now oc- cupies over 200,000 square feet of floor space. The valuation has gone from an original $50,000 to about $800,000. The staff has increased from 2 to over 50. The student body has increased to about 450 day students with many hundreds more clamoring for entrance. The evening school now has 1450 students and could have many more if there were sufficient accommodations. Fifty years young, and the sky is still the limit! [11]
