The college is uouseti in a building which is mo lcrn in every rcs|»cct. Precision instruments and many machines of every kind are found in this department. Much of the excellent equipment has been donated by companies grateful to the college for the work which is being accomplished in the way of training and DEAN’ HITLER research. 'I'o supplement these facilities of training, is the faculty of the college headed by Dean But ler, who has distinguished himself by his accomplishments, es| ecially that of keeping the standards of the college headed in the general direction, skyward. Under the dean is a group of instructors, each one being proficient and capable in his line of instruction. Arizona lias liecome synononioits with the best in the way of training of men for mining and engineering.
