The evolution of MIT, as seen in a series of crucial decisions over the years.How did MIT become MIT? The Massachusetts Institute of Technology marks the 150th anniversary of its founding in 2011. Over the years, MIT has lived by its motto, Mens et Manus (Mind and Hand), dedicating itself to the pursuit of knowledge and its application to real-world problems. MIT has produced leading scholars in fields ranging from aeronautics to economics, invented entire academic disciplines, and transformed ideas into market-ready devices. This book examines a series of turning points, crucial decisions that helped define MIT. Many of these issues have relevance today: the moral implications of defense contracts, the optimal balance between government funding and private investment, and the right combination of basic science, engineering, and humanistic scholarship in the curriculum.Chapters describe the educational vison and fund-raising acumen of founder William Barton Rogers (MIT was among the earliest recipients of land grant funding) MIT\'s relationship with Harvard--its rival, doppelg?nger, and, for a brief moment, degree-conferring partner the battle between pure science and industrial sponsorship in the early twentieth century MIT\'s rapid expansion during World War II because of defense work and military training courses the conflict between Cold War gadgetry and the humanities protests over defense contracts at the height of the Vietnam War the uproar in the local community over the perceived riskiness of recombinant DNA research and the measures taken to reverse years of institutionalized discrimination against women scientists.
