REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS AND CIVIL 



ENGINEERING. 



President J. L. Snyder: 



Dear Sir: — ^To write a review of the past year's worl-c in this depart- 

 ment would be to repeat much of what was recorded in my last report. 

 Lack of suitable class rooms, storage space, laboratories and oflSces 

 have hindered more than ever before the satisfactory arrangement and 

 prosecution of our alloted share of college work. Without an able corps 

 of instructors working in perfect harmony we could not have attained 

 even a tolerable measure of eflficiency. 



It is a pleasure to note that a very recent apportionment of space in 

 the new engineering building assigns to this department several times 

 as much space as was conceded at the time of my last report. 



The department staff has included for the j'ear the following teachers : 

 associate professor, W. Babcock and instructors A. E. Jones, C. Gun- 

 derseu, A. R. Alger, S. C. Hadden, G. James, J. H. Taylor and W. B. 

 Wendt. My thanks are due these gentlemen for unvarying zeal in 

 promoting the welfare of the department and college, for efficient ser- 

 vices in the direction of class work and for helpful advice and sugges- 

 tion. 



The following is our usual tabulation showing particulars concerning 

 the classes met during the year:
