MECHANICAL ENGINEERING It is the object of this course to give the student a thorough training in the theoretical principles underlying the science of machines and 'mechanics, and at the same time to enable him to become practically familiar with some of the numerous applications of these principles. EQUIPMENT The equipment of this department is arranged for work under three heads—class and drawing-room work, mechanical engineering laboratory work, and shop practice. The drawing rooms are equipped with modern desks, boards, filing cabinets, card indexes, reference books, catalogues, odontographs, gear charts, tables, etc. In the cabinet rooms are kinematic models and sectioned steam specialties, many of which were donated by the manufacturers. The mechanical engineering laboratory is in the Engineering Laboratory. It contains engines, boilers, pumps, a surface condenser, and a large assortment of indicators,
