EDITORIAL
There are at State a number of
county clubs which must necessarily
have some reason for existence. To
have their pictures in the LaVie was
a reason formerly attributed to these
organizations, but their recent activi
ties in the interest of the college give
rise to a firm belief that they are
worth somelhing more. Although
acting in a social way, they no doubt
were influential last Christmas in
turning the thoughts of many young
men State-ward. Such active work
in putting the advantages of ttiis in
stitution before Pennsylvanians is
worthy of commendation, and there
is no doubt but that their previous
reputation has been lost sight of in
the usefulness which now character
izes them.
As representatives of various
counties in this commonwealth they
are interested in promoting State’s
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
interests in those counties. What
better way is there just now than to
interest their representatives at Har
risburg in this college and in its needs?
Indeed, organized effort is far more
effective and useful than individual
effort, and there is no doubt but
that letters from such organized
clubs would have considerable influ
ence with the representatives of
their respective counties. This is
worth considering; if it is taken up,
it can result in nothing but good for
State.
Will the secretaries of the various
organizations about college, including
the county clubs, please drop in 323
Main the names of their offieers and
the college address of each?
Professor Reber has announced
plans for what will undoubtedly be
the finest engineering school in this
country. The extensive reputation
which State has acquired has
brought to her portals from Penn
sylvania and other states and even
from our island possessions so many
young men that she now finds her
self unable to give them proper in
struction on account of limited facili-
The new building, as planned, has
been contemplated for some time,
but the immediate and growing
needs of the engineering department
have made it necessary to ask for
additions at once. Although only
so much is being asked for this year
as will meet the present absolute
needs, yet the outlook for the future
indicates plainly that in a very few
years even this enlarged structure
will prove inadequate. State’s
growth has been very rapid in every
department of late, and the buiiding
up begun by our late executive must
necessarily be continued if she is to
meet the demands which are now
being made.
