‘Dedication PROFESSOR ARTHUR J. KNIGHT T HE 1956 edition of the PEDDLER is dedicated to a man who has been connected with Worcester Tech as an undergraduate and member of the faculty for over half a century. In his 50-odd years with the Institute, Professor Arthur J. Knight has distin¬ guished himself as an undergraduate student, engineer, professor, and a founder of a national fraternity on the Tech campus. Arthur Julius Knight was born in Wor¬ cester, Mass, in 1885. He attended Worces¬ ter schools from 1891 to 1903 when he graduated from South High School. In the Fall of 1903, Arthur Knight embarked on his Tech career and established a fine undergraduate record that manifested the propensity of future success. While at Tech, “Art,” as he was known to his classmates, was an excellent scholar, active in the year book publication of the Class of 1907 and President of the Student Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers. To round out his extracurricu¬ lar activities, Arthur Knight was extremely interested in fraternities. He and several other students founded Mass. B Chapter, of Sigma Phi Epsilon. Through the dili¬ gent and industrious efforts of A. J. Knight, the birth and incubation stages of Sig Ep passed successfully and grew from this infant obscurity to the largest fraternity on the Tech campus. Other honors Arthur Knight received in later years were Skull and Sigma Xi, honor¬ ary scientific fraternity. After distinguishing himself in such a manner, “A.J.” graduated in 1907 and was employed by the Northern Pacific Railroad Company as a consulting engineer. In 1910 he returned to Tech and began the second phase of his Tech career that was to be still pursued vigorously fifty years later.
