Its Greek letters symbolize the Aris and Sciences of Metals. This fraternity was founded at the Michigan College of Mining and Technology in January, 1932, to recognize exem- plary students and professional attainments in the field of metallurgy. The Second World War interrupted the fraterni- ty’s growth. During 1947-1948, the organization was revised to meet changed conditions and to broaden its scope. 9 2] The fraternity has three purposes,—to recognize scholastic achievement among metallurgical students, to join its members in a common bond of professional interest, and to be of lasting benefit to its members and alumni. Eligibility for membership in Alpha Sigma Mu is limited to the upper third of the junior and senior classes enrolled in metallurgy and mineral dressing. Election to the fraternity is based upon character, personality and service.

AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR METALS Since its founding in 1936, the American Society for Metals has endeavored to increase the knowledge of its members on the manufacture and treatment of metals. In addition, the meetings of the chapter give the student the necessary social contact to the engineer. A complete reorganization of the administrative machinery featured the activities of the Michigan Tech Chapter of the society during the past year. It had been noted that the ever widening scope of the ASM had placed too great a burden on its ad- ministrative officers. In the spring term, 1948, the members voted for reorganization. lannettoni, J. S. Apostoiina, J. K. Russell, C. C. Adier, G. W. Boyd, A. Schultz, E. Vruggink, S. J. Larsen. SECOND ROW: J. L.

Anderson, Put into effect at the beginning of the following fall term, the new system proved very efficient. It gave greater flexibility and was instrumental in im- proving the functioning of the society. The duties of both the president and vice-president were de- tailed, and several standing committees were ap- pointed to cope with specific problems as they arose. Assured of a smoothly operating organization, the ASM is prepared for more active participation in student activities, the Winter Carnival, and social contact between the members of the society. [23 |
