Excerpt from Unit Operations of Sanitary Engineering
As long as treatment processes remained simple and efficiencies of low order were tolerable, the sanitary engineer educated in the traditional manner functioned with reasonable effectiveness. Today, however, processes are becoming more complex and there is an increased emphasis on higher efficiencies. Empiricism can no longer be trusted. In short, the profession faces a dilemma. Sanitary engineering has out-distanced the practitioner! Obviously, if this serious and very embarrassing situa tion is to be resolved, drastic changes in the educational process are in order.
