Experts Wanted Factories are growing larger (top left), and placing more emphasis on scientific management. The increasing reliance on technology results in a raft of new technical (top right) and medical schools. More children than ever are graduating from urban high schools. Meanwhile, colleges now offer classes in technical subjects, medicine, and the arts (lower right).

	Learning to Calculate Civil engineering has been taught for years, but new classes in mechanical, electrical and even sanitary engineering are suddenly being offered (center top). This reflects the need for a greater understanding of mechanics, mathematics, and the properties of materials. There are well over 100 schools with engineering programs, most with laboratories. Professors are expected to engage in advanced research, while graduates are eagerly snapped up by manufacturers intent on improving efficiency.
	Too Big to Care All states prohibit companies from owning stock in other companies, in an effort to limit their size. John D. Rockefeller, and others, begin evading this limitation using a legal construct called a 'trust.' Trusts are normally only used temporarily, to manage assets owned by a person who has recently died. Rockefeller creates something called the Standard Oil Trust to gobble up all competitors. In theory, it's just a similar grouping of disparate assets under one management. It turns into an unregulated monster.
