saw a chance for an enterprise that
was feasible and educationally
sound. The plan was for the University to Inspect the courses given,
translate them Into conventional
educational currency, that Is, credits, and to plan for further training to complete the requirements
for the nward of graduate degrees.
For the company It Involved an understanding of a graduate educa
tional program. It involved, also,
an ncccntancc of the need for a
thesis, with consequent publication,
even though this thesis might be
based upon rather important nnd
confidential engineering researches.
Since both parties to the transaction were eager to translate this
program Into action, a common un
derstanding was soon reached. The
engineers of the company engaged
In conducting the classes were made
members of the staff of the university. SUicionts taking these courses
were offered the privilege of registering at the university in the regular way. It Is significant, however,
that nearly all these students have
exercised their privilege of registering for graduate" work. The ex
amination of the courses already
offered made It clear that they fell
into two groups; the first one, cov
a
ered by all the student-engineer- s,
general course in advanced clectri
cal engineering carrying five semes
ter credits; and the second one,
open to a smaller selected group,
carrying ten credits.
The additional courses needed for
rounding out the work for the master's degree are supplied from the
departments
of mathematics and
physics of the university. These
latter courses are offered in the ev
enings to accommodate those stu
dents who, in their second year, are
engaged during the day in their
regular employment.
At the nd
of a thesis, passed upon both at its
Inception, and finally by the head
of the proper 'department in the
university, is submitted. If a sue
cessful final oral examination is
passed the candidate is then given
his degree of M. S. In the cases
of a few students, the university
faculty has permitted them to supplement engineering
work with
graduate study in economics. These
students are, in the opinion of the
faculty, equally deserving of a master's degree. Their work embodies
the engineering work of sales, distribution, etc., rather than design
and production.
About a year ago circumstances
made It necessary for the university to shatter a customary academic tradition.
Some students,
upon completing their 15 credits
were transferred to company work
outside Pittsburgh. A student thus
affected at once would ask, "What
can I do to complete my work?"
The answer comes at once. "Register for certain courses which we
shall specify in a nearby university, which must be approved by us
before you enroll. When the authorities of this university certify
that you have completed the work
in a satisfactory manner, we shall
enter these credits upon our books.
Surely a course in advanced differential equations can be as well
taught, and as well learned at one
of cur sister graduate schools as at
our own."
This Is the story in brief. Up to
the present time approximately

Removing mental barriers
In the Bell Telephone System men are
constantly studying new ways to make the
customer's dealings with the company
easy and pleasant. The new "counter-less- "
idea, now being introduced in the
telephone company's business offices, is a
case in point.
Here the customer is placed at once on
a friendly personal basis with the company

representative. He is invited to sit down
comfortably and discuss his business. Certainly more satisfactory than standing at a

counter.
This single instance represents a point
of view which telephone men think is important. Telephone service calls for engineering skill and more

it needs human
