i'm sorry my friend the whole purpose of purdue's growth was because the sheff school at yale started their own society in fact sheff's were originallt not even part of yale but then became very important because of the rise of the industrial revolution in fact that is what all of the big ten schools rose in importance because many of those schols were the one's who focused on engineering a subject thought of as less intellectual than the humanities moreover the liberal arts engineering moniker was not something that was used in some official classification but rather something that was to differentiate the two groups moreover i thought that i was very clear in saying that there was no conspiracy but s b as well as american forefathers was masonic culturally that is a fact there was more to the original society than just an initiation ritual i'm sorry to say
