AETE ISIA 15513 ii., -1. COLLEGE GF ENGINEERING HEN times are hard the number of young people 9 who come to college is increased. The College of Engineering has felt the truth of this during the pres- ent year for not since the days of the Veterans Bureau, when fifty or more returned soldiers were being educated here by the Federal Government, has there been such a large enrollment. Nearly two hundred and fifty stu- dents for the year. Witli number has also come quality and wie hope the instruction has kept pace With the demand. Students who have returned to complete the Work for a degree after an absence of several years, say that courses are more effective than in earlier times. Graduates of the College of Engineering have gone to every part of the world and most reports that come to us indicate that they are making good and are competing successfully with graduates from larger and supposedly better schools. FREDERICK H. SIBLEY Dean The reason is not very obvious. Probably it is due in not small measure to the constructive optimism of the Nevada graduate. The man who thinks he can succeed usually does. On the other hand such success is due in part to a broad and fundamen- tal training rather than a specific one. No experienced engineer any longer believes that We are training engineers in College, rather We are teaching them to think and speak the technical language so that in time they may become engineers. Young men with such an educational background are not handicapped with a mass of information to be unlearned before correct professional experience can be acquired. .., Pri 'J U i ll 812 te IE 1 sf rl Q H li in 55 .Ai iii ,,.

Clarence H. , Mackayf said, among other things in his congratulatory 1 telegram to President Clark, uhdy sole desire is to make Z2 the School of Mines first in this country and preeminent ? in the world of mining education, and I trust that the realization of this desire may be fulfilledf' . On this same occasion Mr. Mackay outlined a five- ML year probation period before definitely financing the .l , , .. .. y eighteen thousand dollar endowment fund, and he also KC ip f - gave instructions to have plans drawn for a new building 4 4 . . for chemistry, physics and mathematics, adequate in every 1 respect to meet the needs for the best possible instruction muy ,yn H-lfuyx 'Q in these three basic subjects for the Mackay School of i l95f'l'ff 1' , 5 lVlines VVork.,' :fy It is very gratifying to all friends of the University that Mr. hlackay did arrange 2 V l to perpetuate the eighteen thousand dollar endowment at the end of the five-year period 1- ' and that he did present Mackay' Science Hall to the State uto provide education for the ,iy future generations in those sciences which are fundamental to mining. Elle These are very generous tangible evidences that M r. Mackay believes the flflackay I , 5 School of lVlines is Well started on the course he laid down in l92-l. 1 lVlr. lVIackay,s decisions have undoubtedly been influenced by the steadily increas- ing enrollment, by the quality of students attending the School, by the demand for School graduates, and by the performance and advancement of these graduates after entering their lifels work. All of these phases have been favorable and encouraging to the position of prominence laid down by M r. Mackay as the goal. . , e I f' f 'f:f'l '.',,. lift: .i-.
