I. T. Thereupon the departments of Engineering and Mining, with a new department of Industrial Chemistry, were...
...very modern and complete equipment. In the department of Mechanical Engineering are heat engine laboratories, an applied mechanics laboratory, hydraulic laboratory, laboratory for testing materials, cement and concrete laboratories, the power room at Pierce Hall, and the Refrigeration plant at the Medical School. The electrical equipment includes dynamo, research, high tension, photometric, and standardizing laboratories. In addition are several chemical and physics workshops, as well as a laboratory of sanitary engineering, the Cruft Laboratory for radio-telegraphic engineering, the Simpkins ore-dressing laboratory, the Simpkins assay laboratory, and the laboratory of metallurgy...
...laboratory, and the popularity of the place is shown by the large number of business students who use it. At Randall Hall, an elaborate system of meters, connected by machinery, has been arranged for the further study of business problems. As an example of the extent to which the research is being carried, a detailed investigation into the best lighting plans for individual plants, and experiments in the deadening of sound on office floors are now being conducted under Mr. Stone. As there is no other institution in the country offering similar opportunities for intensive office training, the government...
