Edmund A. Engler, A. M., Ph. D., LL. D. President OR TEN years Doctor Engler has held the official position of President of the Faculty at the Insti¬ tute. These ten years have been a fitting climax to his career as an educator. After graduation from Washington University in 1876, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, he received the later degrees of Bachelor of Philosophy in 1877, Master of Arts in 1879, Doctor of Philosophy in 1902, and Doctor of Laws in 1901 from the same institution. For twenty-seven years he served as Professor of Mathematics at Washington University, and two of these as Dean of the Engineering School of that institution. It is with regret that the Class of 1911 realizes that it is the last to have a full course at the Institute under the guidance of Doctor Engler, and we shall look backward in after years with pride upon our relations, during our course, with the man who has directed our careers. Those rela¬ tions, which began in awe and reverence for the dignity of his position, have gradually ripened into those of genuine affection. Those of us who at times have fallen by the wayside have had the sting of their reverses mitigated by the pleasure of a more intimate contact with Doctor Engler. The personal interest which he displayed and the mature judgment which he brought to bear in the solution of the problems of these embarrassing situations, and in the unraveling of our other diffi¬ culties, will always remain a firm bond linking him more closely to our hearts in after years. As yet the man to occupy the position he leaves vacant is not decided upon, and while we earnestly hope for a worthy successor to fill the chair which Doctor Engler has so eminently honored, we shall always be conscious of the fact that however worthy his successor may be and whatever his attainments, in the affections of the Class of 1911 Doctor Engler occupies a position second to none. 15
