Endorses Local
Sigma Rho Tau
Sigma Rho Tau, engineering speech
society, has been accorded endorse-
ment by the American Engineering
Council at Washington, D.C., it was
announced yesterday by Prof. Robert
D. Brackett, head of the local chapter.
The A. E. C., supreme coordinat-
ing body of American engineers, is at
present conducting a study of en-
gineering curricula in the United
States in order to find a solution to
the reed of engineers for "organiza-
tion of' ideas and ability of expres-
sion."
Sigma Rho Tau was founded at
the University of Michigan in 1929
and is now a national society with
five active chapters. This number
will doubtless be increased, according
to Professor Brackett, national or-
ganizer of the Society, since recogni-
tion by the A. E. C. will favorably in-
fluence the many engineering col-
leges that are now considering in-
stallation of chapters.
