Tech President Favors State Institute Cooperation Plan
President Maclaurin told a Post reporter last night that the plan for close cooperation between the institute and the State is sound and could bring inestimable advantages. He cited possible uses for old buildings, including biology lectures, a public health program, and an industrial museum, while confirming that construction on the Cambridge projects would proceed with adjustments. A committee from Tech alumni proposed legislation to use faculty for commissions, share better labs with State institutions, and create a free technical information bureau with Governor Walsh to implement.
