THE DAY OF DAYS
The Engineering Day Executive Committee, heading and coordinating
the various and many exhibits and shows of the departments of engineering,
has announced that the plans for the first annual engineering day are com
plete. The entire student body looks with anticipation towards the day set
aside for the displays by those men who have learned striking physical phe
nomena and much about specialized fields. The first of its kind to be held
at A. and M., it bids well to mark the beginning of an entirely new era in
this, an already ranking engineering school of the United States. The furth
erance of literally the base upon which is built a great part of this our civ
ilized world is indeed a noblepurpose.
The cooperation, conscientious efforts and diligent planning on the part
of student engineers, professors, authorities and others, deserves the thanks
of all; although it is for their cause that they work, they are pushing A.
and M. into a prominent position in engineering fields today. For this we
owe them a debt of gratitude. Frankly, these words are not empty; there has,
if one will look around, been an enthusiasm and interest aparent to the
most casual observer. The success of the day is assured already.
And to the staff of the Technoscope, the heralders of the events of the
day, should go a share of the praise. An entirely new publication of its type
on the campus, it is already certain of success.
Those of the student body who miss the exhibits upon which many of
the college have worked so hard in preparing will do not only themselves but
the school an injustice. Educational value, entertainment, striking phenom
ena, lectures, amusement, diversion and thrills all are contrived to make
this day a memorable one in the history of the college. Congratulations to
the man to whom this idea was original, and to all those who have worked
to make its materialization a success.
A VOTE OF THANKS
No man can hope to please everybody, but there is a group of men on
the campus who deserve much of the praise, approval, and applause of the
student body. This group is the 1930 Longhorn staff. The production of this
book has been a large undertaking and the result of their labors has been
the presentation of a great piece of work in this particular field,
field.
When one looks at this book, one cannot help but be taken with awe;
for this publication is the result of many tedious and laborous hours
on the part of a hard-working and willing staff, truly a work of genius. It
is indeed a credit to those men who have so faithfully worked to make it a
success and means a great deal not only to them but to the student body in
general.
Like all publication jobs it is more or less a thankless job; credit being
given only in a very few cases. It is well night impossible to please as large
a group of men as there are here, at least all of them, but we wish to voice
the opinion of those who have found the book favorable, that it is a
work of art. Let praise fall where it is due; congratulations to those who
really deserve such.
