President Johnson talking with three Indiana Tech students about the undeclared war between their countries. The President was on an afternoon stroll when he met the students. After talking with them, he invited them into the \Vhite House for a personal tour. While on the tour the President men­tioned that he was glad that the Indian and Pakis­tanis students were still friends even though their countries were fighting.

Dr. Edward C. Thoma

Our yearbook, the Kekiongan, provides the memorabilia for each of us, students and faculty alike. It especially salutes our senior students , and we all join i11 wishing them , those great successes which they h ave envisioned and planned. For the rest of us, the yearbook serves as a challenge and a guidepost on what we can do the next year to improve upon this present year. Only as \iVe accept the challenge to not only strive to accomplish 111ore, but actually achieve this , do we m ake lasting and important contributions. May the Kekiongan serve both as a sounding-board and as a record of the challenges that we have accepted and accomplished and provide for us insights to do even more.

Today's aerodynamic courses are quite different from those of a few years ago since supersonic flow causes significant heat­ing and thermodynamics has to be carefully taken into account. Earthbound navigation courses have been supplanted by special navigation. Structural analysis courses have shifted the emphasis from triangulated, de­terminant frames to the indeterminate, stressed-skin structures. Mathematics con­tinues ( in its radically advanced forms ) to be an important tool in this field.

This department continues as one using the most advanced scientific information to help develop and produce modern means of transportation through space beyond.

Civil En gineering is the oldest of all the en gineerin g fields. It has always been con­cer11ed with projects of both public and private n ature that affect the social and economic life of the people.

Origin ally, Civil Engineering was con­cerned with the construction of bridges, roads, buildings which are still major areas in the civil engineering field. In the last half­century, additional areas have been added to the field , such as , wa ter supply, waste dis­posal, city planning, and traffic engineering. These are of importance for the public health welfare.

1,he 1965-66 basketball season with the Warriors sporting a fine 17-8 record. In spite of a loss to Anderson in the N .A.I.A. District 21 playoffs, it was a good year for the team. The winning of the lVI.C.C. with a 7-1 record and impressive victories of Hoosier College Confer­ence foes m ade the season successful.

A quick look into the future sees the return of the entire squad barring grade problems etc. However , before we get too hopeful , it should be pointed out that n ext year's schedule will be the toughest in the history of the school. It must be the pains of progress.

Sl Kappa Alpha Psi, a college fraternity now

comprised of more than 200 undergraduate and alumni chapters on major campuses and in cities throughout the country, boasts a membership of over 20,000. It was founded in the school year of 1910-11 on the campus of Indiana University at Bloomington, In­diana. Its constitution is the law of an or­ganization predicated upon and dedicated to, the principles of achievement through a democratic fraternity.

Preparation for the coat of arms was com­pleted during the summer of 1911 by three of the founders who solicited the aid of a professor of Greek art at the Indiana Uni­versity together with that of a professor at Concordia University. The second chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi was chartered in 1913.

The Alumni Office is directed by an executive secretary, who is responsible to the board of directors of the Indiana Tech Alumni Association and to the administration of the college.

All graduates of the college become members of the National Association when they graduate. Alumni do not pay membership dues but, instead, are asked to give to the Alumni Support Fund which provides the funds to underwrite operational costs and salaries.

The Association looks on each student as a potential alumnus who will some day become a vital part of the foundation on which the college is built.
