Excerpt from Announcement of the Stevens Institute of Technology: A School of Mechanical Engineering
The executors, in the first place, decided upon making the appropriation to this object of the maximum amount as named in the bequest, and then, in view of the existing needs of the country at large, and of the personal interest always manifested by Mr. Stevens in the development of the mechanic arts, they also determined that the Institution of Learning should be a School of Mechanical Engineering.
