...program in Electric Communication Engineering is offered for the first time this year, which includes all the electrical engineering courses of the four-year engineering program and certain courses on the telephone, telegraph, hydrophone, and radio communication, previously available only to graduate students. Such opportunities for study and research in this field as are offered by the Department of Electrical Engineering and Physics and the Cruft Laboratory, are probably not to be found elsewhere...
...order that the noise of telegraph instruments which otherwise would annoy the speaker and audience may be avoided a silencer will be used at the Union. The sending key makes very little noise but the "sounder" a good deal. The latter is primarily for the receiving operators who listen to it and the sounders in New York will not disturb anyone in the Union. However, the sending operator must have a sounder in order to know what he is sending and whether all points are getting it. Accordingly, the usual sounder, which is an instrument about 5x3 inches in size...
...further Resolved: that this resolution be sent by telegraph to the President of the United States, the Secretary of State, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, and all Massachusetts congressmen; and that it be given the widest publicity in the press...
...printer's trade is full of legends of this kind. There is small seat in the border state region, quite non-existent here, unknown as Dunkards. Some years ago the faithful telegraph operator transmitted an account of the convention of that body with an "r" carefully inserted where it would do the most good. The terrified desk man on one of the standard newspapers of Boston sent up copy showing that the drunkards of the United States numbered so many thousands, that their growth during the last decade had been marked; that they were to have a convention at Harrisburg...
...Already the school has programs of study in civil, mechanical, electrical, and sanitary engineering, in mining, metallurgy, and industrial chemistry. Now students will also be given an opportunity to undertake a special course of work in electric communication so as to fit them for the wide opportunities in the telegraph, telephone, and radio-telegraphic industries, and for research and invention in the whole field of message sending. In addition, the course of study for prospective sanitary engineers will be divided so that those men who expect to specialize in public engineering in a broad sense, will be somewhat differently trained...
