In these war times every technically trained man is a national
asset. The Colleges as well as other agencies, have a real contribution
to make towards the winning of the war. The special
interests of institutions must be subordinated to the one purpose
now before the nation.
President Wilson has declared that it is the patriotic duty of
young men under twenty-one years of age to seek a technical
education, and if already in College, to continue and complete
their education.
A sufficient number of technically trained men is so essential
chat the War Department has made the follwoing provisions to
encourage college students arriving at draft age before graduation
to continue and complete their courses. Immediately upon
graduation, such students enter the service in their special lines.
1 Qualified engineering students may enlist in the Engineering
Enlisted Reserve Corps and be placed on the inactive list
until graduation. At graduation they will have an opportunity
to enter an Engineer Officers' Training Camp to try for a Commission,
or they enter the Engineers' Corps as a private.
2. Qualifeid engineering students may enlist in the Naval
Reserve, and on graduation may enter the U. S. Navy Steam
Engineering School and train for Ensign's Commissions. (Students
in the Naval Reserve will likely not be eligible for membership
in the R. O. T. C.)
3. Qualified agricultural students in the Senior Class may
enlist in the Quartermaster's Reserve Corps to be called to active

The Secretary of War has distinctly stated that young men
under draft age who have entered upon a technical college education
can render the nation the greatest service by being educated
first and serving afterwards. Young men sixteen or seventeen
years of age can graduate by the time they reach the draft
age and be prepared for maximum usefulness in the military
establishment.
Engineers and technicians cannot be made over night, and our
Government will be seriously embarrassed if young men refuse
to begin now the training necessary to *keep up the supply of
fuch men both for the needs of the army and for carrying out
the war program at home.
After the war the greater* opportunity in history will be presented
to men trained in j- ^riculture, Engineering and other
technical lines. If the L'. S. is to be a leader in the reconstruction
of the world, she iv\st 1\ ve men trained for the task.
