Within the last few years Purdue has undergone a decided enlargement. The rapidly increasing student body has necessitated the yearly construc- tion of larger buildings. The center of the campus is shifting gradually north- ward with future plans indicating the Executive Building as the nucleus.

The three story structure of red brick and red-tiled roof is one of the larg-est buildings on the campus and contains complete laboratories for experimentation in fields of electricity, as well as class- rooms, lecture halls, and offices of the electrical engineering staff. Continuing down the park- way drive, the tourist next sees the Mechanical Engineering Building, of a somewhat similar construction, but newer since it was completed in l929. Projecting from its rear wall and not seen from the parkway, is the huge, three story laboratory which houses steam engines, tur- bines, automotive, railway, aeronautic, and other mechanical engineering test equipment.
