Ngriculture HARCJLD GlllNNliLL B.S., M.S., Ph.D., Cornell Univer- sity, Dean of College of Agriculture - , A , ' J j i 1 Q i DUCATIONALLY, the College of Agriculture offers a broad program of study in which every student is subjected to training in the Humanities, and in the Bio- logical, Physical and Social Sciences, as well as to the more specific technical knowledge relating to the various phases of agriculture, forestry or home economics. The college is organized into 12 major departments with an enrollment of degree curricula to about 125 students. Available to degree students for specialization are more than 20 programs of study, each with its own technical and professional objective. An increasingly larger proportion of the graduates are continuing their education in the graduate schools throughout the country. Only a relatively small number turn im- mediately to production. Others find satisfying employment in teaching, extension, re- search, civil service, industry, and commerce. 17

Technology LAUREN E. SHELBY College of Technology. 'Y miie I lx' 5 eefnuz.. s M- c li K , 1 . all HE College of Technology serves the University in the Helds of science and en- gineering. It offers instruction in Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, and the four major branches of engineering: Chemical, Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical. Some of the departments offer graduate work leading to the Master's Degree. Also in the College of Technology is the Engineering Experiment Station, a research agency set up to aid New Hampshire industry. The enrollment in the College of Technology is relatively small, about five hundred and six. The space required is relatively large due to the many laboratories needed for instructional purposes. The cost of conducting an engineering program is considerable, as is the student effort to acquire an engineering education. The object of the College of Technology is to produce competent engineers and scientists, and at the same time to impart teachings required for democratic life. 16 Ph.B., M.E., LL.B., Yale, Dean of
