  • Abstract
    Two types of students, one fundamentaly interested only in engineering, and the other more deeply interested in and capable of leadership, are considered in this paper. For both, a broader training in the humanities is urged. Among the numerous points which it is stated should be brought to the attention of the student engineer is the necessity of realizing that human relatoniships, which cannot be reduced to a science, are among the most important considerations in later life.
