'l IJ -9 wi if -4, .K lf 3 4 If Q 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 engineering-- the generation, transmission, and distribution of power necesf sary to keep manufacturing plants in operation and the design, operation and maintenance of wire and radio com' munications systems vital to keeping the peace, The curricuf lum in the Electrical Engineering department is designed to prepare the student for a position of responsibility in any of the various phases of the electrical field. All required electrical courses place the emphasis upon the fundamental principles of electrical engineering, rather than upon their application in any special Held, thus giving training for a position in any branch of the profession. , 0 gicfricafi gngineering l .

This threefstory and basement, pressed brick stoneftrimmed structure was completed in 1903, and it now houses the departf ments of English, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Drawing, Geology, and Physics. The graduating department of Norwood Hall is Electrical Engineering and its laboratories are located on the ground floor and basement. The labs are all equipped with the standard types of alternating and direct current generators and motors, transformers, converters, and control apparatus. For experimental study of communication and electronics a lab is equipped with an artificial transmission line and various other electronic devices. l'fL,ig1f SixI,ffwrL orwoo cl cya r.,,, .N , -,.f ,'f f ' v',f'f' , , ,g f. 1 ' ,Q ,fly f 4' ' pil?

H, z an in K , wh , is 'K ' i This 'threefstory pressed brick building with a basement and two large onefstory Wings was erected in 1909 and now houses the department of Metallurgical Engineering and Ure Dressing. In the Metallographic Laboratories samples of metals are prepared for microscopic structure studies. With the apparatus available in the Spectographic Laboratory it is possible to determine very rapidly most of the elements consisting of minerals, metals and alloys. Une laboratory is devoted to the tire assaying oi min'- erals and ores for silver and gold and the smelting of ores. ,Also included in this building is the physical testing laboratory where metals and alloys are tested for various mechanical properties, Page ElgI1f,fil57I, Wefafurgicaf !.?u.if ' .1 D i-' 1... s N ix X Xi, FN P I af 5 I A x SFWT' i is ,Qi X A Dx hs- ix.. .
