Excerpt from The Technology Review, 1906, Vol. 8 The buildings erected during this time have been of a tem porary character. Early in 1902 announcement was made that work was soon to be begun on two buildings: one for the Walker Memorial, the other for the Departments of Physics and Electrical Engineering. Owing, however, to the open ing of the question of moving the Institute, the one-story building put up in the summer of 1902 was designed to serve merely temporary needs. The same is true of the building called Engineering C, which was built in the summer of 1903, and the gymnasium on Garrison Street, which has just been completed. In 1902 the Institute purchased in Brook line land adjoining that given by Mr. Cabot, the two pieces amounting to eleven or twelve acres. Part of this land is devoted to athletic purposes, and is known as Technology Field. During this period, in spite of the increase of the tuition fee from $200 to $250, the Institute has suffered from inadequate financial resources, - a condition of things that has seriously affected the purchase of new equipment and the payment of adequate salaries.
