The School of Mines The School of Mines was created by a resolution of the Board of Re- gents during the year 1893-4. Because of the great wealth of the state in min- erals and the consequent demand for mining engineers the department soon had a large enrollment which has steadily increased until at the present time one-fifth of the male students of the University are registered for this course. The course in mining at the University is broad and includes all of the es- sential subjects and the pre-requisites of successful engineeving. Yet the course does not include any of the non-essentials, but tends always to make the graduates efficient and capable mining engineers.” That they are such is attested by the positions which they hold throughout the country. One reason for the efficiency of the graduates of this department is the fact that the course in mining is constantly adjusted to meet the rapidly changing conditions of the mining industry. The best and latest equipment is added as fast as the appro- priations of the state will allow. In addition to the theoretical knowledge gained at the University, stu- dents in this department are required to take at least two vacations—practical training jn the workings of some of the mines of the state. So great has been the success and the reputation of the Idaho School of Mires that students from various mining schools of the country have come for the course offered here, All this success and fame has been won while the department has, in a man- ner, been laboring under adverse circumstances. While the essential equipment is quite thorough there is a defect in that the room now given to the depart- ment is inadequate for the large number of students enrolled for the mining course. It has now come to the point where there must be a mining laboratory if the high efficiency of the department is to be continued. With the practical knowledge gained by ihe work in the mines during the summer and the training in the treatment of inetals which could be afforded by the addition of the new metallurgical laboratory, together with the theoretical knowledge which the students gain at the University, the high character of the min- ing school can be maintained permanently. 15
