Professor D. C. Jackson, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will lecture to members of the Union on "Engineering as a Profession" in the Trophy Room of the Union tomorrow evening at 8.15 o'clock.
Professor Jackson was long active in connection with Edison interests as assistant chief engineer of the Sprague Electric Railway and Motor Company and later as chief engineer of the central district of the Edison General Electric Company. During this period he designed, built and operated many of the largest electric railway and lighting plants in this country. He is now advising engineer and expert for several large corporations.
In 1891 Professor Jackson was made professor of electrical engineering at the University of Wisconsin, and, in 1907, became professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
