THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING Texas A. M. College has taken its place among the greater sources of engineer¬ ing talent for young engineers largely through the efforts of Dean F. C. Bolton of the School of Engineering. So well-balanced are the courses offered by the School of Engineering that it is purposed no engineering student can graduate without a general knowledge of all types of engineering. This general technical education along with the specialization in a par¬ ticular field enables the graduate to begin his cho¬ sen work with a solid foundation. Represented in the School of Engineering are the following departments: Architecture, Chemi¬ cal Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical En¬ gineering, Mechanical Engineering, Municipal and Sanitary Engineering, Textile Engineering, Petro¬ leum Production Engineering and Drawing. Dean Bolton, besides being Dean of the School F C Bolton Engineering, is also the Dean of the College.

) in ?A 1 J OFFICE OF THE COMMANDANT Although it was his first year as Commandant at the College, Colonel Frank C. Anderson was by no means a stranger to the campus. He left his post as head track coach of the Aggies to assume his present position; possibly no other man was more familiar with the student life on the A. M. Col¬ lege campus than was Colonel Anderson. Colonel Anderson has striven to promote the idea of delegation of authority; it is through this method that one man is able to maintain the rules and regulations of the College over more than 3,000 students, many of whom are away from home for the first time. This method also serves to de¬ velop leadership in the cadet officers of the corps. Colonel Anderson is ably assisted by Lieutenant Joe E. Davis, Assistant Commandant, Harry Boyer, office assistant, a stenographer, and various student employees. This force is certainly to be commended for the manner in which the duties of this office have been carried out this year. Colonel Frank C. Anderson
