The metallurgical engineer will be found almost any place where there are weil develobed mining operations However f the bull( of his wor { is done under the influence of an indoor atmos- phere and the comforts of a relatively high civilisation. Civil Engineering, with Prof J, B. Butler in charge of the department, is one of the oldest departments of the school It is probably among Austen and Davidson at worl( in the machine shop

Clayton Forbes Muilenburg Noble Jackson Schrenk Butler Frame Dodd “YOUR COLLEGE” From its meager beginning on -November 6, 1871 through sixty ' seven years of fortune and misfortune to its present progressive status , Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy has been a name nown to the Technologist everywhere. While it had only three graduates in 1874 with a total enrollment of about 30, it has steadily in creased to a graduating class of 93 and total enrollment of 707. The school is not nown for any one department but is given its prestige by graduates in all seven major curricula . Conceded to be the most general in its scope is the mining curriculum , which is supennsed by Professor C. R. Forbes. The field of mining is readily divided into three divisions; viz , Metal Mining , Petroleum , and Geology. We find the metal mining option to include wor in all departments of the school . One afternoon may be spent in Quantitative Analysis and the next one will find the student running a traverse in the school mine. The Petroleum and Geology options are more centralized. The Petroleum course raises, as special worl{ y classes in Natural Gas Production and Oil Field Deielopment which pertains to the drilling operations and handling of the crude oil. The Geology curriculum affords a complete outline of the formation and identification of various natural roc 1 { structures. A graduate of the Mining Department might be found along a jungle river of the Torrid Zone searching for platinum deposits or in the Arctic regions mining go d, but in any case probably in the open air . Metallurgy is a very specialized field of chemistry. This curriculum is headed by Prof. C. Y. Clayton. The content of this course is very largely related to the smelting and dressing the ores received from the mining engineer. Processes of flotation , smelting and electrometallurgy are studied as the means of concentrating and

Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering Prof. Zeuch teaches some “ dc scrip the first nown brcmcfiES of engineering , The student of civil engineering does not do all of his wor with the transit, level, chaining tape , stadia rod but receives training in the require meats of frame , masonry, and concrete struc lures . A large portion of his wor is done with a pencil in the classroom. He must calculate the stresses and strains on each member of a structure. He must measure stream velocities and compute possible cost and power output of dams. The stud;y 0 some geology jits in very mcely to the curri adum, Civil Engineers wor under a univer- sality of climates and conditions. As a curriculum , Mechanical Engineering may be classed as specialised. Headed by
