It occurred to some of the students in the School of Engineering that some organization was needed in the school that could promote school spirit and good fellowship between all men and all departments. The different or- ganizations were very fine as far as they went, but they only brought the men of these respective organizations together. Some organization was badly needed which would tend to develop the social activities of the school, thus bringing the students together more enmassc. so a few of the students of the different departments got together and petitioned the City Y. M. C. A. to install a student branch office here in school. Needless to say they met with the hearty co-operation and ready response of the above mentioned or- ganization. and found the members of the faculty and the student body en- thusiastic and ready to back the movement. The first meeting was held at the City Y. M. C. A. December 11. 1919. Ten of the most active fellows in the different departments sat down to a well prepared feed, after which Mr. Ray V. Sowers explained thoroughly the organized activities of the different colleges in the state. After this the men discussed the proposition of such an organization in the S. O. E. and the meeting closed with everybody feeling very hopeful that the Y” would be very soon an established fact here. Several meetings followed. At one of the meetings the constitution was adopted. At another meeting a written request was signed by those preesnt asking the state board of the Y. M. C. A. to station a permanent secretary here, making a special request for Mr. F. F. Snow. At the last meeting held February 12, at Frat. No. 2. officers were elected, and Mr. Snow was presented to the bunch. On Saturday, February 14. the advisory board, which was elected to serve by the students who have shown interest in the organization, met at Frat. No. 2 having a light luncheon and arranged the future home of the “Y” here. Page Four Hundred Nineteen
