  • Abstract
    The college training should he directed to imparting to the students the fundamentals of all physical sciences. Elementary calculus and analytical geometry should form the ground work to equip the pupil with the tools for analytical study of the problems of engineering applications. Laboratory work and drawing serve to solidify the theoretical ideas. The sound study of a foreign language is of vital importance to broaden the education of an embryo engineer. Any course of study that disciplines the mind is beneficial to the student. Anything that is easy does not discipline.
