School Develops Strategic Plan

Dr. Vincent P. DrnevichProfessor and Head

School of Civil Engineering

The past year has been full of excite-ment. With significant input from facultyand our Advisory Council, we com-pleted a draft Strategic Plan for theSchool. (Because we consider it to bea dynamic document, it always will be adraft.) Our vision is for the School tohave unrivaled impact on civil engineer-ing worldwide.

Two interactive task forces are makingprogress on the first two goals. Theirwork is especially challenging becauseEngineering Criteria 2000 (the new ac-creditation criteria from the AccreditingBoard for Engineering and Technology)is fundamentally different from previousaccreditation criteria. The old criteriawas process based whereas the newcriteria is outcomes based. This differ-ence is similar to the difference between“method specs” and “performancespecs” in engineering practice.

The third goal is important because thestature of the School is many timesbenchmarked on the accomplishmentsand leadership of people who receivegraduate degrees.

The fourth goal, recruiting and retainingquality students, is of ever increasingimportance for both the undergraduateand graduate programs. High schoolstudents today are less inclined tochoose professions like engineering fortheir careers than students of previousgenerations. You can help with this oneby visiting local high schools to helpcounselors and teachers stimulate inter-est in engineering as a career. Thedemand for engineers in the work placeis so great that many graduates, whoonce might have considered going for agraduate degree, are going directly intothe workforce. Many expect to continuetheir education on a part-time basis.Last year, the ASCE Board of Directorsapproved a motion to “support the con-cept of the master’s degree as the firstprofessional degree leading to the pro-fessional practice of engineering.” Thewhole civil engineering education com-munity is looking at this and determininghow we should respond and how thismight be implemented. I will be participat-

Priority StrategicPlan Goals1. Review of theundergraduate curriculum

2. Assessment/improvementof the undergraduate program

3. Enhanced commitment tograduate education/research

4. To recruit and retain theworld's best civil engineeringgraduate students

ing in an ASCE Committee to examinethis issue more deeply and look for waysto implement it.

Professor Julio Ramirez was recentlynamed director of Graduate Studies forthe School. He brings tremendous energyand enthusiasm to the task of recruitinggraduate students. Thanks to the lateEdgar Olson and his wife Hedy, we havesome substantive graduate fellowships toattract quality students to our School.Professor Ernest (Chip) Blatchley led aneffort to the U.S. Department of Educationto continue funding Ph.D. degree fellow-ships for Graduate Assistance in Areasof National Needs. More government andprivate support like this is needed as westay positioned at the top among peerinstitutions.

This past year, the University Board ofTrustees approved a “Differential Engi-neering Technology Fee.” This $100 feeis added to regular tuition and fees paidby students enrolled in engineering atPurdue. In July, we received more than$90,000 for use in the 1998-1999 schoolyear for undergraduate lab equipmentand support. Several labs have alreadybeen upgraded. With a continuation ofthese funds and generous gifts from ouralumni, friends, and corporate supporters,our students will continue to have excep-tional educational experiences, and wewill realize our vision of unrivaled impact.

Last summer we completed renovationsof approximately half of the environmen-tal engineering laboratories on the thirdfloor. Our appreciation goes to ProfessorChad Jafvert, who led the faculty and staffeffort to secure a grant from the NationalScience Foundation for this work. PurdueUniversity had to match the NSF funds,one for one. Let me thank all of you whoassisted us in meeting this match by yourgifts to civil engineering. We also justcompleted renovations to a portion of thehydraulics laboratory where the rainfallsimulator used to be, and now we havequality space for the undergraduatehydraulics course, CE 340 (remember it?).Other renovations included the GlobalPositioning Laboratory in the old Photo-graphic Lab area of our building.

This is an exciting place! I could go ondescribing all the neat and wonderfulthings that our faculty, staff, students,and alumni are doing. Many of them arereported in this issue of Transitions. Weare especially proud of Dr. Delon Hamp-ton, P.E., who was elected to the posi-tion of president elect of ASCE. Shortlyafter the election, he visited Purdue,spent time with the student members ofour Student Chapter, and gave the lun-cheon address at the Civil EngineeringProfessional Development Seminar thatis cosponsored by our School and theIndiana Section of ASCE. I invite you tovisit with us during Gala Week, at Home-coming, or whenever you are in the areato see firsthand these wonderful thingsand the changes that have taken place.We appreciate the interest and supportof our alumni and include their accom-plishments in our vision for unrivaled im-pact worldwide.

Best regards,

Vince Drnevich

Professor John M. Hayes honoredby ASCE Student ChapterJohn Hayes was born May 18, 1909, and raised in Wingate,Indiana. John received his BS degree in 1931 and worked forthe Tennessee Valley Authority and the U.S. Bureau of PublicRoads. While in Tennessee he earned an MS degree in engi-neering mechanics from the University of Tennessee in 1944and later earned the professional civil engineering degree fromPurdue in 1946. He was a licensed professional engineer inTennessee and Indiana. Surviving are his wife of 63 years,Coye, and two daughters, Marian (Jernigan), of Lewisville,Texas, and Julia (Casey), of Dearborn, Michigan.

Professor Hayes joined the Purdue faculty in 1948 as an asso-ciate professor and was promoted to professor in 1958. His re-search centered on performance of highway and railwaybridges including effects of vibration. Since retiring in 1988,Professor Hayes gave much of his time to Purdue students:He was a faculty fellow at Cary Quadrangle for many years.Professor and Mrs. Hayes attended annual ROTC recogni-tion programs to present awards to recipients of the Sons ofthe American Revolution Award and Daughters of the Ameri-can Revolution Award.

John sent cards and letters to many of his students andfriends around the world and was always delighted to receivea reply, proudly showing off wedding or baby pictures to any-one to whom he talked. It has been said that Professor Hayeswas the “Grand Old Man of ‘The Grand Old Profession’.” Hewas truly a remarkable man and advocate of the civil engi-neering profession.

His energy for the ASCE student chapter has been recog-nized by the School officially renaming the chapter to the JohnM. Hayes ASCE Student Chapter. A memorial fund has beenestablished at Purdue and will be used to support the ASCEstudent chapter activities.

Students & Alumni Awarded...

Dedication services were held on June 9, 1998, for the Edgar B. and Hedwig M. Olson Laboratory inthe School of Civil Engineering. Dr. Kumares Sinha, the Edgar B. and Hedwig M. Olson DistinguishedProfessor paid tribute to the impact Mr. and Mrs. Ed Olson have had on Purdue’s School of CivilEngineering and the focus of civil engineering worldwide.

The laboratory was created in 1994 as a result of the Kresge Science Initiative Challenge. The Olsonfamily generously helped provide matching funds to support the Kresge grant, along with the OlsonDistinguished Professorship Award and the Olson Graduate Fellows Award.

The Olson Laboratory has provided many “Purdue” unique experiences for civil engineering studentsenrolled in CE 498, the capstone design course for students in their last semester before graduation.Projects such as the Lafayette Railroad Relocation, Happy Hollow Park, the Animal Science Center,Wastewater Complex for West Lafayette, and the Food Science Building at Purdue owe their begin-nings to this “signature course” in the Civil Engineering program. Over 1,000 students have benefittedfrom this state-of-the-art facility used in this course that is second-to-none in the world.— by Lois Rans

Civil Engineering courses have been offered at Purdue since the Univer-sity began teaching students in 1874. The first engineering graduate was acivil engineer (1878). The first African-American graduate at Purdue was acivil engineer (1894). And the first female engineering graduate was a civilengineer (1897). Our program has stood the test of time and our 13,000graduates have achieved many successes in their lifetimes. Someonehelped all these people get there. Our Faculty.The prestige of the School can be directly attributed to the caring teachersand innovative researchers who have graced our program throughout theyears. You now have the opportunity to give something back in honor ofthese great individuals. You knew many of them. They taught you ormaybe they taught the professors who taught you. Maybe they wrote yourtextbook. Perhaps they developed the breakthrough research that makesdoing your job easier. No matter how your life has been influenced by aCivil Engineering faculty member, I ask you to consider making a contri-bution to the School of Civil Engineering in their memory to help today'scivil engineering students.Several funds have been established over the years honoring our faculty.The list at the left indicates the names of the funds. In the last two yearsthe School has lost five of these faculty members due to death.Contributions you make will be used as specified in the funding agree-ments. Of particular interest is a challenge pledge made possible by Mr.David Leonards, son of Professor Gerald Leonards who passed away inFebruary 1997. Mr. Leonards will match your gift (dollar for dollar) madeto the Gerald Leonards Memorial Fund. His offer has a $100,000 match-ing limit.Support for our School in the form of gifts comes from a core group ofalumni who represent less that 20% of our total living alumni. Yet, nearlyall of our alumni are pleased with their education and the career opportu-nities their education opened up for them. Please consider giving a gift, inany amount, as a gesture of thanks to our faculty.Best Wishes,

Vincent P. DrnevichProfessor and Head

P.S. Send your gift in the envelope provided along with the reply form (opposite page)
