MINING COURSE
GIVEN IMPETUS
ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT OF
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO GREAT
LY STRENGTHENED
Announcement Made of New Faculty
Members-In Recognition Of Idaho
Mining Activities

With view of Strengthening the
engineering department at the uni
versity, especially in the mining and
metallurgy division, several import
ant changes have been announced by
Dean C. N. Little. One of the big
problems of the state board of educa-
tion and President Brannon has been
the working out of plans for enlarg-
ing the scope of work in the mining
division, due largely to the demand
for a more comprehensive course in
mining and metallurgy, which might
be attractive to students in that pro-
fession Idaho is one of the greatest
mining states in the union and the rec
ognition of its Importance by the uni
versity was one of the strong elements
in the decision to strengthen the de-
partment
In February, 1914, Professor R. S.
McCaffery resigned the headship of
the department of mining and metal
lurgy to accept the chair of metal
lurgy at the University of Wisconsin.
For financial reasons, permanent pro-
vision for the work in metallurgy
was deferred until after the new leg
islative appropriation should become
available. AS result of diligent
search, DR.. R. R. Goodrich has been
chosen to take charge of the work
in metallurgy with the title of associ-
ate professor in charge of depart
ment.
DR.. Goodrich comes to the Universe
ty of Idaho with most unusual COM
bination of technical college training
with extended and important teaching
and practical experience. In 1885, he
graduated in mining engineering from
the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, returning for two years fur
ther training, after six years of prac-
tical work, to complete the course
in mechanical and electrical engineer
ing. The past two years he has spent
in study and research at Columbia
University, New York, receiving the
degree of Ph.D. in June, 1915. He has
had extended experience in RESPONSE
BILE positions in the collieries of West
Virginia and in the smelters and metal
mines of Montana and Mexico. For
six years, 1907-1913, he was profes
sor of metallurgy at the University of
and in charge of the bureau
of mines and assaying of that state.
He was recommended to the Uni
versity of Idaho by such successful
practical men as Charles w. Goodale,
Anaconda Copper company, |
Butte, Montana; John c. Greenway, |
manager, Calumet and Arizona Mi
ming company, Bisbee, Arizona; L. D.
