  • History of the Department of Ceramic Engineering the Department Was Founded Largely Due to the Efforts of Edward Orton, Jr
    History of the Department of Ceramic Engineering The department was founded largely due to the efforts of Edward Orton, Jr. who was the son of Dr. Edward Orton and Mary Jennings Orton and was born at Chester, N.Y., October 8, 1863. He was taken to Yellow Springs, Ohio, when his father became principal of the preparatory school of Antioch College in 1865. He doubtless learned geology at his father's knee, as "Dr. Orton's geological work at Antioch received official recognition in 1869 when he became one of the two principal assistants to the State Geologist of Ohio, Dr. J.S. Newberry." As a lad of nine years of age, he saw his father become President of Antioch College and a year later inducted as the first President of the newly established Ohio State Agricultural and Mechanical College, as well as its professor of geology, mining and metallurgy. It will thus be seen that geologic science and admin- istrative art entered early into his life. Boyhood and College Days From 1873 to 1877, he attended the public schools of the city of Columbus. At fourteen years of age he entered the Preparatory Depart- ment of the Ohio State Agricultural and Mechanical College, being the 238th matriculant, and was transferred to the Collegiate Department in 1881. Living with his father in the President's residence at the Fifteenth Avenue entrance to the campus, he had exceptional oppor- tunities to see the normal life of a gentleman, an educator, a scie~tist, and an administrator, and to meet many prominent men in those wa:~s of life.
