Procedures and Computers Business Stresses the Essentials Needed For a Fulfilling Career More emphasis on the use of computers in all busi- ness classes and increased emphasis on basic sklls such as English and math were goals the business department strived for this year. There were many courses offered to help give students an idea as to what to expect in the real business world. Such courses were: accounting, busi- ness communications, combined office procedures, general business, marketing, and shorthand. The business department offered two cooperat- ive education programs, which were Distributive Edu- cation ancfdooperative Office Education. They also offered three clubs which business student's could join. The ckjbs were as follows: COE, DECA, and FBLA. The department as a whole felt the biggest obsta- cle was the crowded conditions in all the classes. They felt their greatest strength was the very cur- rent nature of their course offerings as it is related to the business world. The dedication of their faculty to the individual needs of the students was an excellent strength of its own! Design by Tamera Wagner. Photos by Steve Wilbur.
