nmERicnn socieiy of civil cncinccRS The American Society of Civil Engineers is now completing its tvventy-ttrst year on the M.S.M. campus, having been organized in November i9 » h Y the Junior and Senior Civil Engineering students with the aid of Professor Butler. The local chapter is a chartered member of the national organization which is the oldest engineering society in America. One of the interesting and ben- eficial phrases of the society is the lectures and reports on engineering ctmdi- lions and problems given by prominent engineers.

O., Associate Professor of Electrical En gineering B.S. in E.E., 1921, Oklahoma Electrical Engineering is the practical application of electricity to the needs of man. Electrical engineers in the many branches of the field, serve the entire world. At present the emphasis is on power and communications engineer ing- the generation, transmission, and distribution of power necessary to keep manu- facturing plants in operation and the design, operation and maintenance ol wire and radio communication systems vital to the successful waging oi war. 1 he curriculum in the Electrical Engineering department is designed to prepare the student for a position ot responsibility in any of the aiious phases of the elec.- trieal field. All required electrical courses place the emphasis upon the funda- mental principles of electrical engineering, rather than upon their application in any special field, thus giving training for a position in any branch of the pro- fession. The organizations employing electrical engineers vary widely, and the wide possibilities in the usage of electricity assure the electrical engineer a promising future.
