SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY In the field of higher education, the essential feature differentiating the School of Science and Technology from the engineering college is econ- omy of the student’s time and money, which we make a vital and determining consideration. We employ two-year, intensive, strictly technical courses of utmost efficiency to serve those unable or unwilling to devote the great amount of time and money required for a college course. “Thus we bring our educational service within the reach of many who otherwise would have no alternative but to carry throughout their working lives the serious handicap which lack of education imposes upon those who follow callings in which a thor- ough training in industrial technology is a neces- sary qualification. This consideration was clearly dominant in the purpose of the Founder of Pratt Institute, who believed that it could not be met through the conventional college plan, but de- manded a special type of course. + PARRA eS
