GENERAL INFORMATION HISTORY -I 1 . An announcement of a course in mining appeared in the University catalogue first in 1300-1901. From then until the session of 1910-1911. a n arrangement of courses leading to the degree of Mining Engineer appeared annually. T h e catalogue of t h a t year contained a statement t h a t thereafter freshmen would not be enrolled in mining, and the arrangement of courses leading to a degree in t h a t subject was subsequently omitted. The Thirty-third Legislature, a t its regular session in 1913. passed a n act creating a State School of Mines a n d Metallurgy, to he located a t El Paso. By the terms of the act, the School of Mines was placed u n d e r t h e control of t h e Board of Regents of the University. Early h 1919. by a c t of t h e Thirty-sixth Legislature. t h e school was made a branch of t h e University of Texas. The location of t h e scbool at El Paso was conditioned upon the donation by the city of the former Military Institute buildings and grounds. T h e necessary funds for this donation were secured through t h e activity of t h e Chamber aC Commerce, and t h e school was opened . ~. i n September. 1314. On October 29. 1916. t h e Main Building was burned. 1 t x a s then decided to remove the institution to a more suitable site, on t h e west side of Mount Franklin, donated f o r t h a t purpose. 'The Thirty.fifth Legislature voted a n emergency appropriation 01 S1OO.OOO to erect new buildings.
