- Letter from B. H. Sage to LP, cc: W.N. Lacey, LP, and Ch.E.(2), RE: Explains that he and Dr. Lacey do not think that it would
be in the best interest of the students or the Institute for the admission of all undergraduate students who have completed
the applied chemistry option and who have received a B.S. in Science to be admitted to fifth-year work. Explains that the
facilities are limited, therefore they would only be able to accommodate 12 students in the 5th year course each year. [Letter from LP to Sage January 25, 1950] [Filed under LP Biographical: Academia: (CIT: Materials re: Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 1946-1964.),
