| Show U. U OF U a COMPARES FAVORABLY WITH OTHER COLLEGES The following is an abstract from froma a letter of recent date from Ben who is at Stanford to one of our boys We had no trouble in getting our standing here We Vve did not have to take any examinations examinations contrary contrary to the predictions of some wiseacres at home The U. U of U. U credits are areas areas areas as good as gold here I am rather disappointed in the work here So far as appearance goes I do not think it can be beaten but we want something else besides appearance I believe that outside of the engineering department the courses are pretty good although George Gibbs told me the other day clay that in spots Utah had Stanford skinned even in other depart depart- ments You see nearly all of the engineering especially electrical is given by assistant professors or rather instructors Of course coarse th th- thre re are exceptions to this but on oil the whole it is not nearly so good as the U. U of U. U A man taking a course in mining or electrical engineering should not come here neither should he in my opinion go to Berkeley The U. U of U. U is better than either Dr Merrill is one of the best professors professors professors pro pro- I have seen and there are some others at home who are far ahead of anything we have here The college life is the only thing that makes up for what we lack in instruction Take my advice advice advice ad ad- vice J- J if you intend completing ing a course continue at the University Uni Uni- f y of Utah |
