Abstract :
AIEE Student Branch recognition of the approaching 75th birthday of Doctor C. F. Scott (A´92, F´25. HM´29) began with a dinner and meeting given in Doctor Scott´s honor by the Yale University Branch, New Haven, Conn., March 17, 1939. Doctor Scott, who inaugurated Student Branches during his presidency of the AIEE 1902–03, was head of the department of electrical engineering at Yale for 22 years, and himself founded the Yale Branch. Yale therefore arranged to be the first of the Student Branches to commemorate the “diamond jubilee” of their founder, acting upon the suggestion made last year by R. W. Sorensen, chairman, committee on Student Branches.
