ATHLETICS
Intercollegiate and intramural athletics are under the supervision of the
Director of Athletics and his staff. The University is represented in intercollegiate
competition by both varsity and first-year football, baseball, basketball,
plant is one of the finest in the South. Memorial Gymnasium contains three
basketball courts, a swimming pool, a track, boxing and wrestling rooms, and
adequate locker facilities. Scott Stadium, which seats 22,000 people, is regarded
as one of the most beautiful in the country. Lambeth Field has excellent facilities
for track and baseball. Twenty-two tennis courts and four practice fields
for mass games have been built near the Gymnasium.
STUDENT BRANCHES OF NATIONAL PROFESSIONAL SOCIETIES
There have been established at the University of Virginia Student Branches
of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (1912), the American Society
of Civil Engineers (1921), the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(1922), and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (1934). These societies
hold regular meetings for the discussion of periodical literature and the
exposition by resident and visiting engineers of the present-day problems in
Engineering. A valuable feature of the meetings is the opportunity presented for
practice in public speaking and debate. At stated meetings the Branches hold
joint sessions for the discussion of mutually interesting questions.
ENGINEERING COUNCIL
In 1934 was established the students' Engineering Council with representatives
of the Student Branches and a Faculty advisor chosen by the Council.
This Council coördinates the activities of the student societies and plans in general
to advance the welfare of students in Engineering by every means within
the reasonable reach of the Department.
TAU BETA PI
In May, 1921, a chapter of the National Honorary Engineering Fraternity
Tau Beta Pi was granted and the Alpha of Virginia Chapter of Tau Beta Pi will
henceforth serve to further inspire high scholarship and integrity. This fraternity
is recognized as the leading honorary engineering fraternity of this country
and its chapters are found in a limited number of engineering schools of the
highest standing. The members are elected with care and the standards maintained
are rigid both in respect to scholarship and character.
THETA TAU
In June, 1923, a chapter of the National Engineering Fraternity of Theta Tau
was granted at the University of Virginia. This fraternity has chapters in a
score or more of the leading engineering schools of the country and membership
is eagerly sought and greatly appreciated by the members of the student body.
Elections are made each year based on scholarship and general record of ability
and promise of future service to the profession of engineering.
TRIGON SOCIETY
The Trigon Engineering Society was founded at the University of Virginia
early in the spring of 1923. It is a local organization which has for its object the
contact and by encouraging lectures and study on subjects aside from those
dealing primarily with engineering. The society is active in the student affairs
of the department and is always ready to help in any undertaking for the betterment
of the Engineering School. Members are selected for their personality,
sociability, and promise of high engineering attainment.
ALPHA CHI SIGMA
On May 27, 1922, a charter was granted at the University of Virginia, creating
the Alpha Kappa chapter of the National Chemical Fraternity of Alpha Chi
Sigma. This fraternity recognizes high scholarship, character, and seriousness of
purpose in students specializing in chemistry and chemical engineering. As the
leading national fraternity in this field, it has 47 active college chapters, 10 professional
chapters, and six professional groups, serving to advance chemistry and
chemical engineering both scientifically and professionally. Among the regular
activities of the local chapter are the sponsoring of the annual Alpha Chi Sigma
lecture, the award of a membership in the American Chemical Society to the
outstanding student in chemistry and chemical engineering, and general assistance
to the faculty in the conduct of official functions.
JONES AND BARKSDALE MEMORIAL FUNDS
A gift to the Department of Engineering from Messrs. Arthur P. Jones,
William Barham Jones (B.A. 1907) and Major Kenneth S. Jones (B.A., LL.B.,
C. E. 1915, Major U. S. A., Engineer Corps) in memory of their father, the late
Walter H. Jones, of Norfolk, Va., and of his deep interest in the University of
Virginia, in the form of an endowment fund has made it possible to provide a
considerable number of professional periodicals representing the various engineering
activities. A gift to the Department of Engineering from Mrs. Hamilton
Barksdale in memory of her husband, an alumnus of the Engineering Department,
specifically donated for the purpose of building up the department
library, has made possible much needed changes and additions to the library.
EXAMINATIONS AND REPORTS
Oral Examinations are held at the beginning of each lecture hour on the
topics of the preceding lecture. Written test papers are set monthly, or at such
interval as the professor may appoint. Absences from lecture except by reason
of sickness are not excused without a written leave from the Dean. Class standing
is determined on the basis of the oral examinations and the written tests.
Absence from the latter or failure to answer incurs a 0 grade. Absences from
laboratory periods, however caused, must be made up by special private arrangement
with the instructor.
Written Examinations are held at the end of each term on the entire work
of that term. The result of examination combined with the student's class-standing
gives his term-grade. The pass-mark is 75 per cent. Absence from the
written term examination incurs a 0 term-grade, which may not be removed
Such special examinations are granted only upon presentation of a written certificate
from a reputable physician that the student by reason of sickness on the
day of the regular examination was unable to attend.
Regular Reports are sent out at the end of every term to the student's
parent or guardian. These state for each course followed the term-grade. Further
comment may be added by the Dean or the professor, if it appears probable
that such comment would be helpful to the student. Parents are urged to examine
these reports carefully and to exert such parental influence as may seem needed
to establish and confirm the student in habits of industry and order.
Special Reports are sent to parents at the end of each month for students
delinquent in attendance or studiousness and for delinquents only. When a
student is making steady progress and showing due diligence in his work, only
the regular reports are sent. The receipt of a special report is evidence that, in
the judgment of the faculty, prompt and pointed parental admonition is urgently
needed.
If in any class the Department of Engineering a student fails to make satisfactory
progress, he is first admonished by the professor in charge. In default
of prompt and permanent improvement, he is next formally warned by the Dean.
If due amendment is then not immediately effected, the student's name is
dropped from the rolls of the Department, on the ground that he is not accomplishing
the purposes for which he should have entered upon a University course
of study.
DEPARTMENT REGULATIONS
The following regulations, adopted to define the policy of the faculty, are
published for the information and guidance of the students:
1. Practice-courses as well as lecture-courses must be conducted under the
Honor System. The student who submits any work to be graded is considered to
submit it under pledge.
2. When the lecture-course and the associated practice-course are given in
the same term of the same year, no student will be admitted to examination on
the lecture-course until he has completed at least three-fourths of the practice-course.
3. No student will be admitted to any practice-course unless he is at the
same time pursuing the associated lecture-course, or has already received credit
for the same.
4. No student will be admitted to the graduating examination on a lecture-course
unless he has been present at more than half the lectures in that course.
5. In the technical courses in Engineering (i. e., courses not given in the
College) term-grades shall not be averaged; except that the term-grades for
Freshmen Applied Mathematics may be averaged for the first-year men only,
Mathematics, Sophomore Mathematics, and Sophomore Physics may be averaged,
provided a grade of 75 or higher be made in the third term of the course with
no grade below 65 in the first and second terms of the course.
6. The pass-mark in every course is 75. Class standing and written examination
are combined for the term-grade in such proportions as the several professors
may determine.
7. No student who fails to make 75 on term-grade shall be granted another
examination on the course until he has again attended lectures on that course.
8. A student who fails a second time on any course will be allowed to attempt
the course for a third time only by special permission of the faculty; a
third failure in a course will prevent such student from acceptance as a degree
candidate here in engineering.
9. Special examinations are not given except by reason of sickness on the
day of examination, attested by the written certificate of a reputable physician, or
for other like providential causes. In every case they must be validated by special
vote of the faculty.
10. Any engineering student who fails to attain a passing grade of 75 on at
least 9 term-hours will be placed on probation for the following term, probation
to continue until at least 9 term-hours are passed in one term. No engineering
student shall remain on probation for more than three terms, whether consecutive
or not, in his entire engineering course. If probation is imposed a fourth
time the student shall be suspended.
11. Any engineering student on probation who fails to attain a passing
grade of 75 on at least 6 term-hours and whose average grade on all courses
taken is less than 65 will be suspended. Any engineering student who passes less
than 6 term-hours and whose average grade on all courses taken is less than 65
will be suspended. Suspension during a session continues for the remainder of
the regular session. Suspension imposed at the end of a session holds for the
whole of a subsequent session, except that such suspension may be absolved by
the successful completion of prescribed work in the Summer Quarter. No engineering
student suspended for a second time shall re-enter the department.
12. The Dean's List.—A student, who in any successive three terms, passes
on all courses taken, aggregating not less than 18 session-hours, with an average
grade on all courses of not less than 82 per cent, will be placed on the Dean's
list. A student, who, in any successive three terms, passes on all courses taken
aggregating not less than 18 session-hours, but who does not average 82 per cent,
and who, in any subsequent term, passes on all courses taken, aggregating not
less than 18 term-hours, with an average grade on all 18 term-hours of not less
than 82 per cent will be placed on the Dean's List. A student will be automatically
dropped from the Dean's List, if, in any term, he does not pass on all
courses taken, aggregating not less than 18 term-hours, with an average grade on
will be again placed on it if he meets the above mentioned standard for a term.
A student on the Dean's List is not subject to the regulations limiting the issuance
of leaves of absence from the University, nor does absence from any class
entail on such student any penalty, affecting class standing, imposed for absence
alone. Students on the Dean's List must attend all laboratory classes and must
perform all written problem work and take all written quizzes under the same
conditions as all other students.
DRAFTING ROOMS
The Drafting Rooms are abundantly lighted and are provided with solidly
constructed tables with locked drawers for instruments and materials. Each
student is assigned to a table and has a drawer for his exclusive use. The regular
Drawing Classes execute each one plate a week under the supervision of the
Instructors in Drawing. The more advanced students have such additional drawings
assigned by their respective professors as are needed for the full development
of the courses of study.
Careful attention is given to the training of the students in free-hand lettering,
in the conventional signs of mechanical drawing, in the proper layout of
drawings, and in neat and accurate execution. Exercises are required also in
tracing and in blue-printing, the rooms for which are conveniently arranged and
in close contiguity to the drafting rooms. A vertical blue-printing machine with
arc lamp, complete with trays, has recently been procured and installed. While,
however, technical dexterity is demanded, the graphical method is taught and
used primarily as an indispensable instrument of research, the thoughtful mastery
of which is essential for the instructed Engineer.
The construction and theory of the Polar Planimeter, the Slide Rule, and
the Pantograph are carefully taught, and the student is trained in the practical
use of these appliances for the rapid and accurate production of estimates and
copies from finished drawings.

maps and from the original notes. Polar planimeters are provided for facilitating
such estimates, and a pantograph for making reduced copies of finished drawings.
A set of Beggs' Deformeter apparatus is available for use in the work of
Bridge Design.
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY
The Scott Laboratory of Electrical Engineering.—This laboratory was
initially equipped and endowed by Mrs. Frances Branch Scott, of Richmond,
Va., as a memorial to her late son, an alumnus of this University. During the
year 1910 the equipment was substantially increased through the generosity of
years a large number of new machines, measuring instruments and pieces of
auxiliary apparatus have been purchased. Improvements are constantly being
made and items of equipment added. As a result the laboratory is now well supplied
with the best modern equipment.
Power is supplied to the laboratory from the University distribution system
through a transformer vault located in the building. There is also installed a
motor generator set consisting of a synchronous motor driving an alternator and
a three-wire direct-current generator. A complete three-panel switchboard for
the control of this set is equipped with the necessary instruments and includes
an automatic voltage regulator for the alternator. Power is carried from the
switchboard to distribution panels located at convenient points. Universal plug-and
receptacle-connections facilitate the setting up of all experimental combinations.
For the machine testing there are available several direct-current motor

are complete with the necessary accessories for both visual observation and
photographic recording.
CHEMICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY
For convenience in the supply of chemicals and accessories, facilities for
chemical engineering laboratory work are provided principally in the Chemical
Building. In addition to individual research rooms, approximately 2,000 square
feet of floor area exists in the chemical engineering laboratory located in the
recently completed addition to the Chemical Building. This room is provided
with water, air, and electrical outlets of suitable capacity, floor drainage, and
a pit giving extra headroom for special apparatus. Plans are in preparation for
equipping this laboratory. Additional facilities exist at the University Power
House, where semi-plant scale absorption equipment has been installed for the
experimental treatment of flue gas.
BUILDINGS
The buildings at present devoted wholly or in part to the work of the Department
of Engineering are the following:
The Mechanical Laboratory is the main seat of the instruction in technical
studies. It is 180 by 70 feet and contains on the main floor the Dean's office
and the offices of three other professors; and three lecture-rooms.
Above are two offices, a reading room for students, and blue-print and photographic
rooms. Below on the ground floor are an office and classroom, the
electrical laboratories, the testing laboratories, apparatus and storerooms, and
the student's lavatory. In order to more adequately care for increased numbers
this building has undergone a considerable rearrangement during recent years.
Wood and machine shop equipment has been entirely removed from the building.
This change made available much needed classroom space and allowed the
electrical laboratories to be expanded. Incident to the changes new cement floors
were constructed for the Road Materials Testing Laboratory, the main testing
Laboratory and the main hall. A new high-pressure steam line from the Power
House was also installed.
The New Power House is a single story building 130 by 60 feet, in which
is housed the University heating plant. The equipment includes two 310 horsepower
Heine water tube boilers, equipped with single retort stokers of the underfeed
type, supplied by the Combustion Engineering Corporation, two Babcock
and Wilcox boilers (Stirling type) fitted with underfeed twin-retort Detroit
stokers, two steam and two electrically driven circulating pumps, low pressure
heaters, etc. Provision has been made for the future installation of two steam
turbine generator sets for the supply of electric current to the University buildings.
The entire plant is available for instructional purposes.
Plants available for inspection both locally and elsewhere throughout the
State include the Bremo Bluff and other generating stations of the Virginia
Public Service Company, numerous chemical plants, the Langley Memorial
Aeronautical Laboratory, Hampton, the Newport News Shipyard, the Norfolk
and Waynesboro, the Norfolk and Western Railway shops and the works of
the Virginia Bridge and Iron Company at Roanoke, the Charlottesville Woolen
Mills, etc. Visits of several days' duration are organized to distant points and
are made to coincide, if possible, with some event of more than usual interest,
such as the launching of a cruiser at the Newport News Shipyard, the visit of an
airplane carrier to Hampton Roads or the sea trials of a passenger liner.
The Geological Museum is 120 by 50 feet. It is a three-story building.
The main floor is devoted to the very extensive geological collection of specimens,
charts, relief maps, and so on. The gallery above contains an equally good
collection of minerals and numerous models of typical crystallographic forms.
The upper floor contains the lecture-rooms and the laboratories of Economic
Geology. In the basement are stored subsidiary collections and new material
accumulated in more recent geological surveys.
The Physical Laboratory faces the Mechanical Laboratory on the opposite
side of the quadrangle, and has almost the same proportions. The main floor
contains the lecture-room, the professors' offices, the laboratory of experimental
physics, and the storeroom for the very large collection of apparatus used in the
lectures. On the ground floor is the laboratory of theoretical electricity, the
storage battery room, a well-equipped shop for the repair and manufacture of
apparatus, and smaller rooms for the work of graduate students.
The new Chemical Laboratory was opened for use in September, 1917.
In this fire-proof structure all the work in Chemistry is assembled. The floor
area provided is about 45,000 square feet. The lecture-rooms seat classes of
300, 75 and 25 students. The laboratories assigned to General Chemistry, Organic
Chemistry, Qualitative Analysis, Quantitative Analysis, and Physical Chemistry
contain 110, 60, 40, 30, and 20 desks. Altogether by dividing classes into
sections, 600 students may be accommodated. Smaller private laboratories are
provided for research workers. Large stock rooms communicating by elevators
with the several floors contain ample stores of chemical supplies. The 5,000
volumes of books and bound sets of journals constituting the Departmental
Library of Chemistry are so housed as to be accessible to both teachers and
students.
NEW FACILITIES FOR ENGINEERING INSTRUCTION
Construction is now under way for a new center of engineering instruction
at the University of Virginia. Upon completion of the building program, at the
opening of the session of 1935-1936, the present center for engineering instruction
will leave the Mechanical Laboratory and be wholly cared for in the new engineering
group.
In general this new group will consist of three interconnected buildings
forming a U-structure approximately 300 feet on each side, and enclosing a grass
court about 150 feet square. The buildings are designated as Buildings A, B and
C, and they are to conform in architectural characteristics with the University
group as a whole with the emphasis in this group placed upon the arcade rather
than the colonnade motive.
The site selected affords ample ground and provides a most attractive setting
and outlook. The buildings are being erected on Observatory Road to the west
of Clark Hall, the Law Building, and not far from the Scott Stadium, giving a
fine outlook in all directions.
Building A, the main unit, will be of three stories. The basement will house
the laboratories of Hydraulics, Cement, and Fuel and Oil Testing, each in a separate
laboratory; general locker space for 300 and lavatories with several storage
rooms complete the basement. The first floor will provide the office suite for
teaching staff, with eleven offices, small lavatories, faculty conference room, two
class-rooms seating 75, four seating 40, and three seating 25. The second, or top,
floor is to be occupied by two large drawing rooms with two smaller ones for
advanced work; a fine library and reading room with librarian's office, two other
offices for instructors and a blue-printing room.
Building B will be a one-story structure devoted to the Strength of Materials,
Steam and Gas Power, and Road Materials Testing, each in its separate
quarters; an instrument room for surveying equipment with office for the instructors
is included as well as office and storage rooms for the testing laboratories;
a student lounge room will be provided on a mezzanine gallery level.
Building C will be of two stories. The ground floor houses the electrical
laboratory equipment, in a large main machinery laboratory with separate laboratories
for communication, illumination, and standardization work; transformer
room, battery room, and dark room completing the set-up with an instrument
room and office for the instructing staff. The upper floor will provide a metallurgical
laboratory, a demonstration machine shop, and wood shop, tool room,
repair shop, and a large laboratory for aeronautical apparatus, with office and
lavatory. The repair shop will be connected by elevator with the lower floor to
facilitate handling machinery needing repairs.
The opening of this group for service in September, 1935, will supply facilities
of a modern character long needed here to make possible the best training in
engineering, so far as physical plant is concerned, that the University has ever
been able to offer. The well-known rigid disciplines of the formal instruction
will hereafter be adequately supplemented by physical equipment conveniently
and substantially installed without crowding.
It is expected that the experimental equipment and fixtures will be very considerably
increased over the existing ones by the time the group is ready for
opening. Great care has been taken to supply the best lighting facilities for all
rooms and intercommunicating telephones will offer rapid communication between
all offices in the group. More complete details with regard to the buildings
and the new equipment will appear in the catalogue for next year.
A fair idea of the finished appearance of the new group is given by the
architects' drawing depicted near the front of this catalogue.

Associate Professor Hitchcock.
374-375-376: Chemical Engineering Laboratory:
The student demonstrates to himself essential features of the unit operations
of chemical engineering, by constructing and testing with his own hands
suitable apparatus for the illustration of principles in the parallel classroom
work. Under minimum supervision, he plans, builds, and tests such equipment as
orifices and other measuring apparatus, fluid flow devices verifying Fanning's
common cases, model vacuum pan sufficient to demonstrate the ordinary relationships
of evaporation, and packed columns for the absorption of gases in liquids.
The primary object of this course is to teach the students how to obtain
the data necessary for the interpretation of the unit operations in chemical
engineering. It is inevitable that at the same time, he gains a clearer understanding
of these operations, as well as facility in shop work and the use of his
hands, the preparation of working drawings, and the reduction of his results
to writing in the form of an acceptable report. Whether the apparatus is particularly
efficient, or even practicable from a production standpoint, is not regarded
as important at this stage.
The students work in small groups in order to make better use of the time,
and the results obtained by each group are made available to all through dependent
problem work in the classroom. 6 hours per week. (Fall, Winter,
Spring.) (This course will be required beginning 1936.)

senior subjects, and who have had or are taking Chemical Engineering 324-325-326.
A minimum of nine hours per week for one term is required in the laboratory,
and it is expected that normally the students will continue the work through
the entire session. (An elective course for those having the time to apply to it.)
Associate Professor Hitchcock.
386-387-388: Chemical Engineering Research:
This course is designed for candidates for the Ch. E. degree and affords an
introduction to research methods. Fundamental problems are selected, whenever
possible, from the field of greatest interest to the student. The method of attack
is in general to reduce the selected problem to laboratory scale leading to the
collection of basic data susceptible of definite interpretation, rather than to attempt
investigations on commercial equipment which usually yield empirical results.
The use of the chemical literature as an aid in conducting investigations
prefaces and accompanies the laboratory work, as well as practice in the mathematical
and graphical treatment of the data obtained.
The preparation and submission of a satisfactory thesis marks the completion
of this course, and is a partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Ch. E.
degree. Two copies of the thesis, typewritten on paper of prescribed quality and
size, and substantially bound, must be deposited in the office of the Dean of the
Department of Engineering not later than May 15 of the year in which it is expected
that the degree will be conferred. The back of the cover must bear the
title of the thesis and the writer's name, and the title page must bear the words:
A thesis presented to the Engineering Faculty of the University of Virginia in
candidacy for the degree of Chemical Engineer. (Fall, Winter, Spring.)
Associate Professor Hitchcock.
Advanced Courses: A number of advanced courses in Chemistry, not
listed above, are described in the catalogue of the College. When time permits,
of these courses as are approved by the Faculty of Engineering.
