Also, each of the states govern their citizenry through their respective stateconstitutions3 which virtually mimic the federal constitution. Through their exercise of the policepower they enact legislation to protect the welfare of the public: "The Constitution devotes thedomain to union, to justice, to defense, to welfare, and to liberty.4"One of the ways to protect the public is officially recognize that a profession is distinct from avocation and then regulate the profession through regulatory agencies such as registrationboards.

The professional engineer is in jeopardy of being categorized as atechnologist or technician—led and managed by individuals external to the engineeringprofession. Several decades ago, almost all state DOT directors were P.E.’s. Now, only aboutone-third are P.E.’s.
