DUCATIONALLY, the College of Agriculture oFiers a broad program of study in which every student is subiected to training in the Humanities, and in the Biological, 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 I2 maior departments with an enrollment of degree curricula to about 300 students. Available to degree students for specialization are more than 20 programs of study, each with its own technical and professional obiective. An increasingly larger proportion of the graduates are continuing their education in the graduate schools through- out the country. Only a relatively small number turn imme- diately to production. Others find satisfying employment in teaching, extension, research, civil service, industry, and commerce. 'l7 Agriculture

Technology LAUREN E. SEELEY Ph.B., M.E., LL.B., Yale, Dean of College of Technology. HE College of Technology serves the University in the fields of science and engineering. lt offers instruction in Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, and the four maior 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 Tech- nology 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 three hundred and ninety. 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 obiect of the College of Technology is to produce competent engineers and scientists, and at the same time to impart teachings required for democratic life. T6
