As graduate students in the School of Engineering, they developed the first precision audio oscillator, a low-cost method of measuring audio frequencies. The device became the foundation for their company, known around the world today as HP. Hewlett and Packard had been motivated to create the Model 200A during a lecture byTer- man, who read from a 1934 paper by Bell Lab- oratories’ H.S. Black on distortion reduction techniques. Hewlett was so inspired that he committed his master’s thesis to the concept. That same year, at Terman’s urging, the young engineers pitched the Model 200A to the Walt Disney Company, which was pro- ducing the animated film Fantasia with a soundtrack of beloved classical music. The Model 200A provided the technological foundation for Disney’s “Fantasound” high- fidelity audio reproduction system, and the Hewlett-Packard Company, named for its founders, was off and running. In subsequent decades, its technological strides would make the company a household name.",

In the decade or so between the advent of human flight and World War I, then known simply as “The Great War,” Stanford faculty worked in the vanguard of aviation and aeronautical engineering. By the late 1930s, aviation was at the cusp of a great transition as World War II loomed. As Germany invaded Poland in September 1939, the Department of Mechanical Engineering took in the Guggenheim Lab. Research relationships with the federal government were bur- geoning; the Civil Aeronautics Authority, precur- sor to the Federal Aviation Administration, selected Stanford as one of several centers nationwide to train civilians in aviation.",

In 1941, preceding the attack on Pearl Harbor, Washington frequently called on Stanford to support defense activities, asking for help not only from the School of Engineering but also from the departments of physics and chem- istry and the School of Medicine, seeking any experts who might give the coun- try an edge in the coming conflict.",

Thirteen hundred were taking basic engineering courses that included mathematics, chemistry, drawing, English, history, and geography. Four hundred fifty were advanced engineering students who, after completing the basics, went on to coursework in civil, mechanical, chemical, or electrical engineering. By comparison, at that time the school had only about one hundred graduate and upper-division civilian students specializing in engineering.",

Terman, on leave from Stanford at the time, had been serving since 1942 in a wartime appointment as head of the top-secret Radio Research Laboratory at Harvard University. Yet throughout the war, Terman was anticipating a period after the war he believed would be defined by unprecedented techno- logical advancement led by engineers. Despite Terman’s absence, in December 1944 Stan- ford President Donald Tresidder named Terman the third dean of the Stanford School of Engineering, with a strong endorsement from the engineering faculty. “Dr. Terman’s scholarly contributions in the field of electrical engineer- ing and his administration of one of America’s largest war research projects place him among the outstanding engi- neers in the country,” Tresidder said, announcing Ter- man’s appointment. Terman would lead the School of Engineering through a now-legendary era of academic and technological innovation. Over the next ten years, the School of Engineering would reach the pinnacle of engineering education and lay the founda- tions of Silicon Valley.",
