چکیده
Purdue has not only led the way in spreading the gospel of better highway construction methods through its academic program and through regular meetings such as this one, but also set the pattern for service to the state highway department through its Joint Highway Research Project that is now being followed in many other states.

It is likely that no other single institution has had as much impact on highway development and highway transportation as this University.
