Mechanical Engineering Professor G. A. Young has been connec- ted with Purdue University in one Way or another for over thirty-five years. He obtained his B.S. degree from the South Dakota State College in 1894, thereupon being appointed instructor of practical mechanics. A short time later he was advanced to the position of assistant instructor of mechanical engineering in charge of practical mechanics and junior laboratory courses. During the period from 1894 to 1898 he spent his summers away from the campus of N South Dakota at Purdue University, receiving his degree of B.S.hl.E. in 1899. Since that time he has spent all his time with the exception of one year on leave of absence at Harvard Univer- sity where he received the degree of RLS. of ME. in 1910. Prior to this time, in 1903, he PROFESSOR G. A. YOUNG sity. During his long period at Purdue he has served in many positions. From 1899 to he served as assistant in the Klechanical Engineering Laboratories, becoming an instructor in Beginning with the September term in 1903 he served as assistant professor of mechanical received the degree of Rl.E. from Purdue Univer- 1 931 1902. engi- neering, having charge of the courses on engines, boilers, and thermodynamics. The 19Qj-1906 school year was spent in teaching applied mechanics. During the following semester and until W-N 'EIPFSW9 ' V ,f7'N f9wx'.v W- g1'v1 W ' My -wax- IQOQ he again taught the courses on boilers, engines, and thermodynamics. Upon the resignation of XY.

He has held the above named positions since his appointment. Besides his experience in the teaching profession, he has had wide and varied experience in practical engineering. His summer vacations are devoted to outside engineering practice, principally work upon power plants, locomotives, and pumps. Besides field Work, he has spent a great deal of time in researches upon internal combustion engines, steam turbines, steam engines, and the fire carrying possibilities of locomotive cinders. He has published textbooks on the subjects of thermodynamics, steam turbines, engines and boilers, and gas engines, and has written numerous articles upon engineering subjects and quite a number of bulletins Professor Young has served on various committees and has held high offices in the professional engineering societies. He is vice-chairman of the committee on Chains and Sprockets of the A. S Xl. E., a member of the Committee on Standards of the S. A. E., a member of the Tank Car Com mittee of the A. R. A., and an honorary life member of the International Railway Fuels Associations, being on two committees. Besides the above he belongs to the S. P. E. E., Industrial Engineer's Society, and the American Association of Engineers 4 ' V W 'f ' ' wx- 'WP' ff' ' gf f f P'1 X' '. ' 1 7' 'Wi' , f ' , i'A1,l'L 15' A Wi . N W .- -1 4 1' -f - 1 .
