be economical and practical in their

1T is the view of the management
that these engineering courses, while
differential from each other by the spe-
cial work of each course, must or should
all rest on a preliminary training in
the use of tools and their application,
not only to bench works, but also to
molding. casting and vice work in iron
and steel as well.
I'm the different engineering courses
the students will have almost identi-
cal work in freshman and sophomore
years. After this course is completed,
the mechanical engines will follow the
subjects technical in that department,
while the mining, civil and electrical,
will do the same in their respective de-
partments. The progress that can be
made will depend almost entirely on
the financial resources that may be at
the command of the university.
. Every part of the present building
is now i'm use and more room must soon
be provided. Through the courtesy of
Messrs. Nordquist & Jackson, their
