Department of Chemical Engineering Gerald Moore, Ch.E., Head of Department C. H. McFerrin, B.S. in Ch.E. Stephen J. Slanina, B.S. in M.S., Ph Many Chemical Engineering graduates enter the engineering staffs of large or¬ ganizations as cadet engineers where their work is first directed by others, but as they gain experience are able to assume greater responsibilities. Their work may be in the plant where they are responsible for maintaining production. Others may en¬ ter into design work where they make plans for the equipment used in the chemical engineering industries. This may involve research and development work because de¬ sign work dealing with new materials must proceed with caution. T iventy-one

Department of Aeronautical Engineering Lawrence D. Ely, B.S., Head of Department Edward Rose, B.S. in A.E. Donald Miller, B.S. in A Nineteen hundred and forty. The beginning of a new decade; the fourth for American aviation. The first three decades marked the period during which the airplane progressed from a curiosity to an important position in transportation, national defense and pri¬ vate flying. As an industry, it is still small but this decade will mark the period dur¬ ing which it grew out of its infancy. Given impetus by the European war and the Civilian Flying program, it is growing by leaps and bounds. This condition offers many opportunities to the newly graduated aeronautical engineer for exercising his talent and ingenuity. Let everyone open the door while opportunity is knocking hard. T wcnty

The engineer has a great responsibility. A good engineer should have an upright character, should be accurate, truthful, sober and discrete. He must have command of his temper, have firmness and courage that will repel solicitation and attempts at intimidations. He must be energetic, and take an interest and have experience in his work. His dealing with men must be fair and impartial as a judge on a bench. He must be of inflexible integrity, and should not go ahead, until he knows he is right. The engineer who combines these qualities is beyond price, and his value can not be estimated by dollars. T wenty-two
