Lehmann's opinion, wherein ne says
that where such subjects are taught
as independent courses at other places
it is in effect establishing branches
of the university. However this may
be, engineering has been recognized
by our legislature as an integral part
of our university, and the support
by the legislature of an engineering
school at Ames, if unconstitutional
could have no effect upon the constl'
tutionality of the proposed measure
if constitutional, then it could mean
merely that engineering at Ames
could not be considered branch OF
the university, for the university had
it's own engineering school. But take
away entirely from the university its
engineering and center it at Ames
and as Mr.. Lehman says, there is
established at Ames a branch OF the
university, contrary to the constitu-
ton.

"Under the grant of land to the
