I :i School of Engineering ENGINEERING was started in the University of Texas during the first session on the fort}- acres, which was the second session of the University. The first session, 1883-1884, was conducted in the old Temporary Capitol which was located on the now vacant lot east of the Governor ' s Mansion and west of the Court House. During the summer of 1884, Dr. A. V. Lane, now a banker of Dallas, Texas, was added to the Department of Pure and Applied Mathematics. He began several courses in Engineering and conducted them to the close of the session 1887-88. T. U. Taylor was elected Adjunct Professor of Applied Mathematics in June, 1888, and the Engineering work was continued in the School of Mathematics until 1895 when the Regents created the Department of Engineering; it functioned largeh ' as a school with no separate faculty. In 1906, under the presidency of David Franklin Houston, the Department of Engineering was organized and T. } . Ta lor was made Dean of the Department. From 1884 to 1903 only Civil Engineering was given, but in 1903 Electrical Engineering was added, which included courses in Steam Engineering. In 1906 the faculty of the Deparment of Engineering began to function as an organized bod}-. In 1910 Architecture was added to the Department of Engineering, and later Chemical Engineering was organized into a separate degree. In 1922 the title, Department of Engineer- ing, was changed to College of Engineering. The first graduate of Engineering was H. P. Hunnicutt in 1888. The following number of Engineering degrees have been conferred at the University at Austin : Agriculture — undergraduates, 74; graduate, 1. Chemical Engineering — undergraduates, 44; graduates, 8. Civil Engineering — undergraduates, 318; graduates, 16. Electrical Engineering — undergraduates, 271; graduates, 14. Mechanical Engineering — undergraduates, 69; graduates, 2. Engineer of Mines — undergraduates, 16. Total — Total — undergraduates, 780; graduates, 41. Grand total, 833.

School of Sdiication THE School of Education is the arm of the Unixersity especialh ' charged with the professional training of teachers. It was started at the University of Texas in 1891 as a department in the College of Arts. In 1905 it was set apart as a separate school. The present School of Education was created in 1920. The first professor of E!ducation was Dr. Joseph Baldwin, who was succeeded in 1898 by Dr. Wil- liam S. Sutton and Dr. A. Caswell Ellis. The present faculty of the School numbers 19 professors and instructors, and the students registration is approximately 1700. Comparative statistics show that the School of Education at the University is the largest of its sort in the South. Advanced and graduate students are coming here from all nearby States. There is every prospect that it will develop into the leading training school for teachers in this section of the country. The School occupies one of the most modern and attractive buildings on the campus; in which its offices are housed, to- gether with all its classrooms and laboratories. Practice teaching is now done in connection with the Austin Public Schools. Efforts are being made to develop an experimental school on the campus under the direct control of the Education facultv.
