first foundations Of the School
we're being placed on the great
rhyolite ridge from which it now
symbolically looks down upon
"the greatest mining camp on
Earth" Montana's governor said:
Richard Prophecy
"To no temple of learning viii
the future Montanan look with
deeper gratitude. From these
walls will echo the logic OF g
new revelation to the Mining In
dustry Of our eternal hills.
1T will contribute to the well
fare Of the commonwealth. The
School Of Mines will educate the
people in the great geological
fact that Montana offers better
inducement to the seeker after
precious metals than those lands
across the sea-"
FOresaw ActuaIity
The yellowed files OF the old
Anaconda Standard under the
date OF December 80, 1885,.
summed up the governors talk
with the statement that the
college ought to draw to itself
patrons from every quarter of
the civilized world"
Today in keeping with those
old prophecies. every state in the
Union and those distant lands
across the sea- have recognised
The Montana technical college as
one Of the research centers in the
world.
Scanning the roster Of the
1ss1-s2 enrolment OF graduate
students, who have taken the
bachelors degree in other re-'
nowned institutions and are now
studying for higher degrees at the
school OF Mines one finds such
institutions represented as the
Technische Hochsschule, charlot-
versity, Canada; Queens Uni
cersity, Canada; Massachusetts
Institute OF Technology, universi-
ties and colleges Of California,
Minnesota. Ohio, Oregon, Wash
ington, Colorado, Kansas, and
Idaho.
This recognition is due largely
to the fact that the work done
by the research departments has
attracted international recogni-
zion, although graduate work in
all colleges Of high rank has been
given stimulus by the depression.
.Graduate School

most be termed graduate
school. so great has been the

Serred in 1880. This year 20
