Abstract :
Vocational training in that great section west of the Rocky Mountains may be said to be at present an undertaking still in embryo. Largely its sphere of action is concerned with preparing young men for engineering training in order to aid in the great constructive era which is now under way in the Far West. The best of these institutions may be at once pointed out as being those in which sufficient interest has been aroused to establish local branches of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers — such, for instance, as the University of California, Berkeley, Cal.; Colorado State Agricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo.; University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo.; Montana State College, Bozeman, Mont.; Oregon Agricultural College, Corvallis, Ore.; University of Oregon, Eugene Ore.; Stanford University, Stanford University, Cal.; Throop Polytechnic Institute, Pasadena, Cal.; State College of Washington, Pullman, Wash.; University of Washington, Seattle, Wash.
