ZOO INSTRUMENT MAKER-Laboratoriesand
Delicate Mechanisms.
Zoology Instrument Man
Makes Special Equipment

By MARILYN WOOD
"Unusual" and "different" de-
scribe Paul A. Spradlin's job at
the University.
As instrument man of the zoolo-
gy department, he works with deli-
cate instruments as well as con-
struction of laboratories.
"And just about anything else
that turns up," Spradlin added.
Jack of All Trades
The tall, slender jack-of-all-
trades often makes special equip-
ment for students. If glassware
of a.particular size or shape is
needed, he is the man who makes
it.
Spradlin is in charge of all lab-
oratory construction in the zoolo-
gy department. He does all the
designing and drawing from which
architects make the final blue-
prints.
"Some beautiful labs have been
set up," he says modestly,
Within the last two years, three'
new student and research labs have
been built within the department.
Controls Dispensary
Another of Spradlin's responsi-
bilities is the dispensary. He has
complete control over it.
He is also in charge of all equip-
ment and keeping it repaired and
does much of the repair work him-
self. "There is a tremendous
amount of equipment in this de-
partment," he says.
All non-academic help in the
zoology department, except office
workers, is responsible to Sprad-

lin. "You have to be able to un-
derstand a lot of problems to be
able to cope with everything," he
remarked.
Offices of this conscientious
worker are currently located in
the back of the dispensary room.
A single desk and chair are al-
most hidden by numerous cabi-
nets.
'Misplaced Worker'
He is, at the present time, with-
out an office. The "misplaced"
worker has just moved from one
room and hasn't found another one
yet.X
When he is permanently situat-
ed, his office will resemble that of
any ordinary man in an' ordinary
position.
A desk, tools for minor repair-
ing and files of all departmental
records of equipment purchased
and used will not give the entire
scope of this unusual occupation.
Zoo 1 Assistant
Spradlin's first job at the Uni-
versity was as a Zoology 1 assist-
ant. While doing that for - two
years he "learned the ropes of the
department."
Because equipment was his ma-
jor interest he liked the job of
instrument man. He has been in
this capacity for two years.'
- Admittedly equipment is part of
his job but only one part. His
experience as a carpenter's ap-
prentice after finishing high school
prepared him for the construction
part of the job.

at~~~~ A"t h~y ircraft


R. P. I. Dedicates

Graduate Study Center
Near Main Plant

Engineers participating in graduate study program comple-
ment their classroom training with laboratory experience
gained through their daily employment.

r
;'

The dedication last month of a full-fledged graduate
center near the Pratt & Whitney Aircraft plant.
in East Hartford, Connecticut, set a precedent in
relationships between industry and education. At
a cost of $600,000, P & W A's parent company
purchased and equipped the building that was pre-
sented outright to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
for its Hartford Graduate Center. Moreover, an
additional grant by this industry leader to R.P.I.
was used to establish a liberal fellowship fund. Since
last fall, when classes first began, this tuition-assis-
tance plan has functioned to assure advanced educa-
tion for Pratt and Whitney Aircraft's applied sci-
entists and engineers.
The new graduate study center, 115 miles away
from its home campus in upper New York State,
is staffed by a resident, full-time faculty. Engineers
at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft and other companies
in the vicinity are able now to continuetheir educa-
tion without interrupting their normal employment.
Designed to raise the level of knowledge and to
broaden the base from which research can be ap-
proached, this unique new concept of education
will lead enrolled engineers to greater achievement
in their careers through pursuit of advanced degrees
in specialized fields from the nation's oldest engi-
neering college.
