Established in 1937, the College of Business Admin- istration is the fourth college to be established within Butler University. Headed by Dean Maurice O. Ross, president of Butler University and Assistant Dean Mer- wyn G. Bridenstine the college is entering the period of its greatest activity with the return of the many veterans of World War II who are interested in the field of busi- ness. The courses offered in the College of Business Ad- ministration are designed to provide training in the methods, techniques, and principles underlying modern business and journalism, as a foundation for careers in these fields. A further and equally important objective is to equip students with a knowledge and understanding of the changing and developing character of economic society and the responsibilities that are laid upon edu- cated men and women engaged in economic and jour- nalistic activity.
