When electrical engineering first started at Purdue in 1888, There were no televisions. When Roscoe George, created the first all electronic television receiver at Purdue and started the first TV station in Indiana in the1930's computers were still in the distant future. Today, Purdue's School of Electrical and Computer Engineering is participating in groundbreaking work that will shrink computers to molecular dimensions. Class of 1952 to dedicate Transformation sculptureAs part of their 50th anniversary, members of the class of 1952 will begin the installation of a new sculpture next year to add to the aesthetic quality of the campus. "Its going to be different for Purdue University. Some of our competitors in Bloomington always thought that Purdue was sterile. I think this is going to show that this is not the case and we rank with the best ones," said Bob Book, co-chair of the class of 1952 campaign. The bronze sculpture titled "Transformation" will stand 40 feet tall and will be positioned in a reflecting pool in front of the planned Visual and Performing Arts Center located near the intersection of Marstellar and Wood streets.
