Sigma Rho Tau Is Speech Society Sigma Rho Tau, engineering stump speakers' society, carries on the de- velopment of an active interest in speech work in the College of Engi- neering. A branch of an intercollegiate speaking society originally founded here and now spreading to other campuses, the organization promotes public discussion and debate, and at- tempts to bring about a closer bond between the, applied scientistand the general public. Among the activities of the society are conferences, inter-chapter de- bates, intra-chapter debates and speech contests on problems of na- tional and engineering interest. Membership at the present time is divided into four different classes- neophyte, novice, associate and full. Engineering college students inter- ested in the organization are urged to visit any one of the regular Tues- day meetings held at 7:30 p.m. in the Union. Vulcans Is Senior Honorary Society Coupling honor membership with an attempt to better the work in the College of Engineering, Vulcans, se- nior engineering honor society, draws its members from the senior engi- neering classes in all departments of the college. Like its younger brother, Triangles, the society tips prospective seniors late in the spring, and completes its selection of membership early the following fall. Intended to bind the leaders of each senior class into an active group for the advancement of the Univer- sity and the College of Engineering, Vulcans also serves to acquaint the honor students from any one depart- ment with the leading students in the other fields. Membership is determined on the basis of participation in campus ac- tivities and satisfactory scholarship at the same time. Tau Beta Pi Is Highest Honor Society Highest of the College of Engi- neering honor aspirations is member- ship in Tau Beta Pi, national engi- neering honor society corresponding to the literary college's Phi Beta Kappa. Representing the highest honor which can be accorded an engineer, membership in the society is deter- mined on the basis of scholarship and campus activities. Like other engineering honor so- cieties, Tau Beta Pi elects members Air-Minded Group Sponsors Activity Four years ago air-minded engi- neers founded the campus branch of the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences which promotes the application of science in the development of air- craft.. The group sponsors speakers who have technicalhbackgrounds in avia- tion and give the members an insight into various phases of the field. Mem- bership includes a subscription to the institute's monthly magazine "The Journal of the Aeronautical Sci- ences." Henry Fielding, '42E, is president of the organization and can supply additional information to anyone in- terested in membership who phones 2-3101. Freshmen Invited To ASCE Meetings The Student Chapter of the Amer- ican Society of Civil Engineers is af- filiated with the National and State organizations and its members are admitted, upon graduation, to these senior groups without examination or entrance fees. Only sophomores, juniors and se- niors may be admitted to full mem- bership in the group but freshmen are invited to attend the bi-annual meetings, which are announced in The Daily. Both the monthly publication "Civil Engineering," and the yearly "Proceedings" of the senior society are offered to members of the student group at reduced subscription rates. Transportation Club Open To Civil Engineers Field trips to important transpor- tation centers throughout the middle west, regular meetings featuring well- known speakers and summer jobs in traffic engineering or related fields are only a few of the advantages of-j fered members of the Transportation Club. "Although the club has no national affiliation its membership is large and the opportunities for contact with senior engineers and faculty members are infinite," Robert Radke, '42E, president of the club explained. The membership is open to all members of the civil engineering de- partment who are interested in Traf- fic engineering problems. Meetingsj are announced regularly in The Daily and freshmen are urged to attend, Radke said. AIMEAssists Mining Students Aid to students is one of the aims of the national American Institute! of Mining and Metallurgical Engi- neers, and is carried out in the pro- gram of the student branch at Michi- gan. Lecptuires.-discussions and1 movies Iota Alpha is a society whose aim is to stamp approval on meritorious work of engineering students, to stim- ulate young practical alumni, and like objectives. The local chapter, authorized in 1925, was the second in the new na- tional organization that was formed at New York University in 1919. At its inception the organization was called The Engineering Honor So- iety of Iota Alpha. Quarterdeck Is Honor Society An honorary organization for stu- dents in the Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering is Quarterdeck Society. Activities of the society are con- finedmostly to discussions amongthe members and the reading of student- written papers on subjects dealing with ships and shipping. It is one of the oldest engineering groups on campus, being founded in 1909. Membership in Quarterdeck is in- vitational and all meetings are con- ducted by the members. Eta Kappa Nu Helps Electrical Students Eta Kappa Nu is a national elec- trical engineering fraternity founded for the purpose of closer cooperation and mutual benefit of students and others in the profession. The campus chapter sponsors elec- trical engineering colloquia and aids in all activities of the Department of Electrical Engineering. Meitbers are elected from the junior and senior classes of electrical engineers. Can- didates must have maintained a high scholarship average. Sigma Xi Is Research Body honor Group Organized For Science Workers Serving as an organization for workers in the field of scientific re- search is the local chapter of Sigma Xi, national honorary society. The fraternity was established for the purpose of encouraging original in- vestigations into the fields of pure and applied science and of promot- ing friendship among those people engaged in research. Members are selected by nomina- tions from the staff in the depart- ment of specialization; officers are chosen from the faculties of the sci- entific departments in the Univer- sity. Staff members and graduate students who have shown ability in research may receive memberships. Associate memberships may also be conferred upon seniors and gradu- ates who have demonstrated high scholarship as well as aptitude in re- search. The Michigan Chapter of Sigma Xi was founded in 1903. It is one of over 100 such societies in various colleges and universities all over the nation.
