HE original idea of the founder of New Hampshire was to give the students of New Hampshire an opportunity to become trained in Agri- culture and Mechanic Arts. The department of technology received primary attention when the site of the College was brought here from Hanover and every effort was made to enlist into the Faculty well trained instructors. Typical of the growth of the university was the progress made in the department of technology. All kinds of apparatus and machines were em- ployed to give the student a more practical insight into the field of engineering. Each year saw some new achievement in this department. In 1923, when the state college was made a University a College of Technology was recognized. DEAN GEORGE W. CASE became the head of the College of Technology in the fall of 1925. His experience up to this time had been that which had connected him with various engineering companies, but his far-sighted execu- tive ability was easily recognized, and he was elected to his present position upon the departure of Dean Crouch. He received his B.S. degree at Purdue Univer- sity, and in 1912 received his M.S. degree from Cornell, The following year, he became Professor of Sanitary and Hydraulic Engineering at the University of Pittsburg. His next position, which he held until his acceptance of his present position, established him with the American City Engineering Company as Chief Engineer and Executive Head. It is through the influence of Dean Case that such an extensive building program at the University can be carried on. It has included during his stay at the university, the new heating and power plant, and the new chemistry building which is at this time under construction. 1261 ,

, 451 'I il 71' C ll'lll7l.fC' ol I 'Y 5 U The Extension Senviee etndl Experiment Station IRECTOR JOHN Cl'l1iS'l'l2R KENDALL, of the class of 1902, has super- vision over both the Agricultural Experiment Station and the Coopera- tive Extension Service in Agriculture and Home Economics. He served on the agricultural staffs of North Carolina State College and Kansas State College. He attended the first summer graduate schools in agriculture at Ohio, Iowa, Cornell and Massachusetts, and was 1 State Dairy Commissioner of Kansas. He ' was called back to New Hampshire in 1910 to become director of the State Agricultural Experiment Station and in 1911 when ex- tension work was first started he took charge of that work. He is a member of Kappa Sigma, Alpha Zeta, Phi Kappa Phi and Ep- silon Sigma Phi. The New Hampshire Experiment Station, made possible by the Act of Congress of May 2, 1887 and authorized by the state on August 4 of that year, is now conduct- ing eighty-four active projects on behalf of the agricultural industry of the state and nation. Approximately all members of the Dl ect0 John C' Kendall Agricultural College faculty are also on the Station staff and eighteen others are engaged in research work. The Extension Service, which Director Kendall started single-,handed in 1911, has now grown to a point where there are fifty-two members of the staff, thirty-live of -whom are located in the different counties. Their work is supple- mented by 1800 voluntary local leaders, and the demonstrations of improved practices have already had an important effect upon the agricultural life of the state. New Hampshire has the distinction of being the first state in the Union to have an agricultural agent, a home demonstration agent and a boys' and girls' club agent in each county. -QA: ,....,. .gtg 4 ,li ....
