Abstract :
We, as a nation, have emerged. The education to maintain and expand our society is available to all. The new challenge to the unique, the intelligent, the eager, and the ambitious is to explore the frontiers of knowledge, discover the magnificence of the order of nature, and then to apply this accrued wisdom to the creation of a new and better life for our whole society. The engineering school must stimulate and challenge its select students to explore and solve our great sociotechnological problems. It must not merely train its young men to maintain the present; it must do what others cannot in using the strength of its unique students and our pioneering heritage to provide this nation with that elite body of men who have always sought the way to a better life. It must supply society with sociotechnological explorer-leaders.
