Mining Club A.I.M.E. |
Societies, Education, Postsecondary Education, Education, Higher, |
The Mining Club, a branch of the American Institute of Mining Engineers, was organized in the winter of 1930, so that mining students might hear men of experience in mining work and might discuss and demonstrate modern methods. Membership is limited to the mining and geological students at present of twenty four. It meets every other week in the club house if conditions permit. During the past year a new program was put into effect. Every other meeting was a business meeting, which included a discussion by the student members of some interesting topic. At the other sessions an outside speaker discussed with the club members some engineering subject of interest to both the guest speaker and the club. A member of the Mining club need not also be a student associate member of technical magazines and papers published by the Instutute concerning mining in all its phases. Upon graduation the student association may obtain a junior membership in the A.I.M.E. [Photo shows a group shot of the 1934 Mining Club] Scanned: July 3, 2012 |

Tau Nu Tau |
Education, Postsecondary Education, Education, Higher, Education, Military Engineering |
Tau Nu tau, honorary military engineering fraternity, originated at the University of Illinois in the Spring of 1930. The aims of Tau Nu Tau are to foster a spirit of cooperation between military engineers and engineers in civil life, to foster a spirit of fraternity among its members and an esprit-de-corps within the corps; to promote interest in military engineering among engineering students of the various colleges and universities throughout the United States; and to diffuse among its members information of a military engineering nature.

The Keweenawan |
Education, Postsecondary Education, Education, Higher, , |
The Keweenawan of 1936 represents an unlimited amount of effort by a staff which worked in the face of much discouragement to put out a book which might express the spirit of Michigan Tech down through its fifty years of growth. An effort was made to provide material which would be of interest not only to present classes but to those who have graduated in the past, and provide a general panorama of the college. An extremely limited budget for the scope of the work planned was considerably relieved by the loyal assistance of the school administration and the Fiftieth Anniversary Reunion committiees, who made it possible for the students to have a yearbook far better than would have otherwise been practical. The business staff was rearranged after the departure of Business Manager Charles Locke after the Winter term. Charlie's fine work did much to pave the way for his successor, Norman Siewert. [Photo shows a group portrait of the Keweenawan student team; at this time, the Editor-in-Chief was William A. Bennett, and the Business Manager was Norman R. Siewert.] Scanned: July 5, 2012 |

The Michigan Tech Lode |
Education, Postsecondary Education, Education, Higher, , |
This year continued to show steady improvement that has marked the history of the Lode since its founding in 1921. A rating of "excellent" was awarded to the student publication in the spring of 1935 by the Associated Collegiate Press, and the Staff did its utmost to live up to this reputation during 1935-1936. The initial issue of the year established two new records when an eight-page paper was published and 3750 copies were circulated . Succeeding issues saw the publication of a majority of six-page papers, with circulation decidedly above average. For the third consecutive year the Collegiate roto-gravure section, supplemented the regular publication. The Lode also established itself on a firmer financial basis. Increased advertising revenues insured a larger and steadier income and made possible the increased size of the paper. The annual spring banquet proved a welcome wind-up of the season for the staff. Attractive keys were presented to the staff members as well as a sumptuous repast. Scanned: July 5, 2012 |

Michigan Tech R.O.T.C. Band |
Education, Postsecondary Education, Education, Higher, , |
Michigan Tech R.O.T.C. Band Officers; Director: Arthur Kitti, Capitain: William Bennett, First Lieutenants: Harold Anderson and Edgar Wallace, Second Lieutenant: Edward Moersch, First Sergent and Drum Major: Alva Johnson, Sergeant: Martin Tretheway. Since it was founded in 1928, the Michigan Tech Band has steadily advanced until it is now recognized as the finest marching band in the district. With a membership of close to forty, it has added color to many of the college functions. The prime purpose of the Band is to supply the necessary music of the formations of the R.O.T.C. Battalion. It is conducted under military regulations just as the units of the Batalion, although its membership is fifty percent non-R.O.T.C. The Band plays for all home foot-ball and hockey games, and occasionally accompanies the team to foreign ports of call. Las year it accompanied the hockey team to Minneapolis to the University of Minnesota series, and this year was on hand to encourage the football team against Jordan at Escanaba. Each year teh Band presents several programs. Last Fall at the Kerredge Theatre it scored a decided hit, and was much in demand for skating parties during the Winter. Scanned: July 5, 2012 |
