This generously illustrated volume covers the history of Carnegie Mellon University since its founding as the Carnegie Technical Schools in 1900. The book has three foci: Andrew Carnegie and the Mellon Family as founders; the administrations of the University's eight presidents, and five" snapshot" chapters of the school, particularly student life, at twenty-year intervals beginning in 1907-1909. Written by Professor Emeritus Edwin (Ted) Fenton, this rich history immerses readers in the life of the University throughout its 10 decades of growth and achievement.
