In 1925, during Tech’s first semester of registration, the College of Engineering had 313 students enrolled in its two-member faculty
department. Three additional professors were quickly added to meet the needs of the enrollees, and in 1927 the faculty ranks numbered ten.
By the 1954-1955 academic year there were thirty-nine faculty members. The Textile Engineering building was home to all Engineering
classes in 1925 and was one of the few buildings open on the first day of school. Additional buildings were added in 1928, 1950, and 1951.
The first female Engineering graduate was Edna Nawanna Houghton in 1930, who returned two years later to teach in the Architecture
department.

This collection contains information and names of graduates from approximately 1928 through approximately 1975. It also contains
questionnaires and reviews of the engineering curricula and faculty from the 1970’s to the 1990’s. In addition, this collection has
biographical sketches, publicity photographs and a scrapbook. One point of interest might include engineering articles between 1980 through
the early 1990’s.
