In it the State alumni requested that trustees place "the same emphasis upon the ex pansion of the Engineering School at North Carolina State College that they place upon the expansion of the med ical School at Chapel Hill." This has been interpreted as indicating that ap proval of the Medical School expan sion by those trustees who are alumni of State College is conditional upon enlarging facilities of the Engineering School at Raleigh. ty school as a part of government measures against highway accidents throughout the nation.
