Since that time it has had a continuous history of progress, increasing from a small publication to the present technical journal published during eight months of the year. It has been for several years a leader in the Engineering College hlagazines Associated. One purpose of the Engineer is to provide an opportunity for those engineering students interested in technical journalism to become acquainted with the editing and managing of a technical journal. Klembers of the editorial staff learn to write engineering articles, and to become familiar with the details of page set up and typography, proof reading, and editing. Members ofthe business stali' learn the sales, circula- tion, advertising, and management of an engineering magazine. The other purpose of the Engineer is to provide the engineering students with a knowledge of the research projects of the University, with the news of successful alumni, and with a discussion of current engineering developments in industry and research The importance of the Engineer as an activity may be observed from the fact that there are now hfty members of the staff. The organization is under the direction of the Editor in-Chief, an Associate Editor, and the Business hlanager. In addition to these three positions held by seniors, there are live junior editors, four juniors in charge of business depart ments, a staff artist, and a number of sophomore and freshmen assistants The progress Wh1ch has been made during the last year, and the high quality of the magazine has placed it in a leading position among magazines which are devoted to engineering subjects Purdue Engineer J E Hoasom TY :A 5, i 5 l ' l , . - l r W I l 4 -- l 'fsfffa : I I Y-E, f ' c ., ' f-Shir.

E. HOBSON AU BETA PI is the oldest honorary of the campus- established at Purdue in 1893 and by right of priority and by right of excellence in standards occupies perhaps the most enviable position of the scholastic societies on the campus. Tau Beta Pi is the engineering equivalent of Phi Beta Kappa in letters as being initiated into Tau Beta Pi is the most coveted honor bestowable on an undergraduate engineer. Before one can be considered for admission he must have been previously elected to membership in the honorary fraternity representing his own school. There are sixty-one national chapters in the United States, the Purdue chapter is known as Indiana Alpha. The chief project undertaken by Tau Beta Pi this year has been the counseling of delinquent freshmen in the engineering schools. In sponsoring this project the organization has en- deavored to put to practical use its primary ideal, that of promoting scholarship in engineering work. Under the direc- tion of the personnel ofiice and several members of Tau Beta Pi, this plan has made great progress. Because of the large number of freshmen receiving delinquent reports, the members of Tau Beta Pi were unable to care for all of the freshmen, and the school honoraries were asl-:ed to help in the work. It is worthy of note that this project is new and is watched with interest by educators all over the country. In order to bring the members into closer contact with one another the club has arranged to have dinner meetings once a month. Faculty members of Tau Beta Pi are invited to attend these meetings, their presence resulting in a closer bond between the students and the faculty. 11 r 1 I
