This year was hardly the first time it rained on
our parade. In 1962, however, Homecomers were able
to tough it out (the 1997 parade was held in the
Armory). Here, a float from the College of
Industrial Technology passes the CAS building on
Commonwealth Avenue. A private aeronautical trade
school located at Logan Airport, CIT was acquired
by BU in 1950 and was a forerunner of the present
College of Engineering. A year after this photo was
taken, ENG opened its doors on Cummington Street.
