...actual enrolment. The routine on board will be similar to that at Plattsburg. A portion of the day will be given up to the study of special subjects which will be largely optional, so that recruits who have aptitude for or knowledge of special subjects, such as navigation, signaling, radio work, steam or electrical engineering, etc., may have an opportunity to specialize, the object being to give everybody a general idea of what Navy routine and the problems of naval defence means. And it is our desire to get as representative a body of men as possible, who, after...
...general activity in the building is centered around the study of high-voltage and high-frequency electrical phenomena, particularly in the field of radio telegraphy and radio telephony. For these subjects the laboratory has a very valuable collection of apparatus, much of which has been developed at Harvard, and some of which is entirely unique...
...common bearing on Physics and Physiology. Several students are engaged on researches for theses for the doctor's degree. The more elementary students are given opportunity for routine laboratory work in connection with electric oscillations and electric waves, and for practice in the design, construction, and operation of radio telegraphic apparatus...
Once a month, meetings are held at the Laboratory of the Boston Section of the Radio Institute, which is an international body of Radio-Telegraphic Engineers. These meetings are well attended and have proved of much interest. The work done at the laboratory, although primarily devoted to an apparently narrow special field, in reality covers a considerable portion of the subject of electricity, and is valuable as a part of a general scientific education...
Friends of special interest activities in the University will be glad to note the recrudescence of the Wireless Club. This time the organization has struck a vein of new enthusiasm for radio telegraphy; it has the support of research students at the Cruft Laboratory, is to become a member of the American Radio Relay League, and to do some actual experimental work in the receiving and sending of messages. If successful, the Wireless Club will present a worthy example of what can be done in developing serious interests on undergraduate initiative...
