4,000 Expected
KU Engineering Day Draws Instructors. Future Students
By Jerry Kern
The fourteenth annual Science, Mathematics and Engineering Day will provide an opportunity for senior high school teachers and students of science and engineering to become acquainted with the activities and facilities of the University of Kansas in these fields.
Nearly 4,000 teachers and students from Kansas and border areas of Missouri are expected to participate in the day-long event. Registration will begin at 8 a.m. this Saturday in Hoch Auditorium.
THE EDUCATIONAL EVENT is sponsored by 23 departments and schools of the University, including the University Extension Office.
The purpose of Engineering Day, as stressed by Edward Shaw, chairman of the event, is to introduce interested teachers and students to the types of available jobs in their particular field, the training necessary for them, current research problems in the field, and other questions.
The visitors will have an opportunity to see a vast collection of
exhibits, research experiments, and other scientific displays. Several exhibits and experiments of interest will be displayed by each sponsoring department.
WHEN REGISTRATION is completed, the guests will be greeted in Hoch Auditorium. A speech entitled "Prairie Schooner — 1965" will be given at 9:30 a.m. by James B. Tiedemann. Tiedemann is an associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at KU.
Departmental discussions in the various fields will begin at 10:30 and last for one hour. Each department will provide a staff member at a designated place for these discussions.
After lunch, the visitors will return to Hoch Auditorium to hear Dr. Theodore T. Puck speak on "Radiation and the Human Cell."
PUCK IS PROFESSOR and chairman of the Department of Biophysics at the University of Colorado Medical Center in Denver.
The program will conclude with
an open house from 2 to 4:30 p.m. which will be open to all visitors
Among the nearly 60 exhibits and displays, many exemplify the quality of this event such as the new wind tunnel in the new Engineering Building; the University of Kansas Observatory at Lindley Hall; a new 3-million volt Van de Graaff generator and associated equipment in the nuclear physics laboratory, and the IBM 7040-1401 Computer System at Summerfield Hall.
BROCHURES COMPLETE with schedule and directory are available for visitors.
