Excerpt from Proceedings, 1896, Vol. 3
The Society for the Promotion op Engineering Education is an outgrowth of the Engineering Congress held at Chicago in 1893. The success of the section of Engineering Education was such as to suggest the value of a permanent organization, which was there effected. Meetings are held annually. In 1894 the Society met in Brooklyn, with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and in 1895 at Springfield, Mass., with the same Association. The meetings have been well attended, the papers interesting, and the discussions animated and instructive. The opportunities for engineering educators and others having community of interests, to meet both socially and for informal comparison of views, is not the least of the benefits to be derived from the Society. The present membership of one hundred and eighty-eight includes very many of the ablest and best known of the engineering teachers of this country, as well as several eminent foreign professors of engineering. Eighty-six institutions are represented, including nearly all colleges giving instruction in engineering. Geographically, there are members from thirty-seven States, as well as Canada and five European countries.
