Harvard Engineering Society.

About sixty men interested in the new engineering society met last night in L. S. S. 1. Professor Hollis presided. A constitution was read and adopted. The organization received the name of the Harvard Engineering Society. It is not intended to displace the Electric Club, but hopes to encourage it and to be the cause of the growth of other clubs in different departments of engineering. The new society is to be more general and is intended.

1. To promote general knowledge and discussion of engineering subjects, and

2. To promote intercourse and acquaintance between members of the society and professional men.

Its membership is determined as follows:

(a). Active membership shall be confined to members of Harvard University who study engineering subjects with the purpose and intention of becoming practising engineers, also the instructors of Harvard University who teach subjects connected with engineering. Active members alone may vote or hold office.

(b). Any member of Harvard University, or any practising engineer may become an associate member. Associate members cannot vote or hold office.

(c). Honorary membership shall be confined to those whose experience and ability have given them distinction in engineering work.

The following officers were elected: President, Professor I. N. Hollis; secretary, A. N. Johnson, L. S. S. '94; treasurer, J. D. Vaughan, L. S. S. '95; librarian, W. E. Clarke, L. S. S. '95: the executive committee to consist of the above and a representative of each of the three engineering departments, i. e., G. L. Swendsen, L. S. S., 94, civil engineering; J. C. D. Hitch '95, electrical engineering; and C. J. Morrison '95, mechanical engineering. These last three are to serve as an election committee, and are to be the chairmen of any meetings of their divisions.
