The Bell System andthe Co/leges The success of theBell Systems collegeemployment programwill depend in the long run upon cor-dial and mutually constructive rela-tions with the colleges and universitiesand their faculty members. Since theestablishment of coordinated collegerecruiting, early in the 1920s, a num-ber of activities have been undertakento promote such a relationship. In order to assist the larger engi-neering schools in their teaching ofproblems most usually encountered incommunications, a substantial amountof communications laboratory equip-ment has been made available to anumber of such schools. During the. Bell System buildings—such as this of the Ohio BellTelephone Company in Dayton—are architecturally ap-propriate to their surroundings, and in their substantialcharacter and careful planning reflect the stability of thebusiness and its regard for customers and employees engineering, mechanical engineering,and business administration and eco-nomics, to acquaint them with prob-lems encountered in the telephonebusiness, and the types of opportu-nities it offered to their graduates. During more recent years, one BellSystem company has held similar con-ferences with college faculty repre-sentatives, primarily to give them abetter understanding of the telephonebusiness; and other Companies areplanning similar conferences. Suchmeetings improve college relations in 1920s, the Bell System companies general, and strengthen the opinionheld three conferences with faculty that the Bell System is a good placemembers in the fields of electrical to work. ii8 Bell Teleph
