experiments, making a problem that commands the attention and 

 respect of our engineering students. The remaining five experi- 

 ments are also of equal importance. 

 (f) We have been authorized to give three years of physics as a minor in 

 the Applied Science course, which will necessitate the engagement of an 

 additional instructor during che year 1921-22, and possibly another in 

 the year following. 



The courses in physics taught and the number of students enrolled in each 

 subject, were as follows:

Physics 5 (for veterinary students) was eliminated, spring term, there l)eing 

 only one freshman veterinary student. 



Physics 4c has not been offered for three years on account of the lack of 

 laboratory room. 



In the summer of 1907, the Physics department moved from the north 

 half of the Chemistry Building into the Engineering Building where it had 

 two lecture rooms, an apparatus room, a shop, three large laboratories used 

 exclusively for physics— rooms that were about 40 feet by 50 feet — and three 

 recitation rooms. Since the fire which destroyed the Engineering 

 Building, March 5, 1916, we have been in very cramped and inadequate 

 quarters. This means that much of the apparatus has had to be taken down,
