In the year 1828 the Institution of Civil Engineers was organ- ized in London. In the charter of the Institution, Civil Engineering was defined as the "art of directing the great sources of power in nature for the use and convenience of man, as the means of produc- tion and of traffic in states, both for external and internal trade, as applied in the construction of roads, bridges, aqueducts, canals, river navigation and docks for internal intercourse and exchange, and in the construction of harbors, moles, breakwaters and light houses, and in the art of navigation by artificial power for the purpose of commerce, and in the construction and adoption of machinery, and in the drainage of cities and towns." For many years this definition has been a classic, regarded as expressing a definite view of the field covered by engineering prac- tice.

    Archives: 'storehouse ,of history For a man who delights in finding ,and -saving historically important records, ' ,eh Havener could hardly ~ish. for a ~o~e , .' gental job than that of University archivISt. 'Ji4t.;f for that matter, could he want a more bou~tIful source of the stuff of which archives $1'& made. ,. ' Certainly there is an abundance of 1ihJs '''stuff'' on the four campuses. The University produces it at an alarming rate and the-n .stores it - in boxes, drawers, barrels and fJleoabinets. And, to ensure its safekeeping­ since much of it, for various reasons, must be kept - there is a University regulation prohibiting the disposal of any University reoords without authorization from the Unlversity Records and Archives Committee, of which Havener is secretary. (See z aocompanying story.) p "Traditionally," Havener says, "the university archivist goes after the administrative records - of the president, the vice presidents, the directors and dean~ and the departmental chairmen. And we also like to go out after the papers of what ,we .c~1I 'significant' faculty members. It s difficult t? define what a 'significant' faculty member IS, but if there is someone who ranks high enough in the humanities orthe sooial sciences to be in Who's Who, or, forthe physical sciences, h~lds membership in one of the national academies, then we try to get his or her papers, too." In addition, Havener says, the Curators Archives contain the minutes of administrative committees, faculty bodies and stude."t meeting organizations; annual reports a.n~ var~ous in Columbia other reports issued by the adminIstratIon, the faculty and studentgroups; official catalogues A rather short agenda and bulletins; news releases; UM Press books; , awaits action by the Board extension manuals; student pUblications; of Curators at its meeting photographs; tapes; and assorted today in Columbia, begin­ memorabilia.
