What an incredible journey the past six decades has been. Who could have imagined that 74 young men beginning engineering programs in a pair of tin-roofed portables on July 1, 1957 would be the foundation of what is today a world- leading university in research and experiential education. As we move into the next decade, we reflect on our remarkable past. The historical timeline in this issue highlights many of our milestones along the way. It’s fun to look back at where we started and think about where we are now.
