ULD EW Yfllilf UNIVER ITY HE faculty of the School of Commerce in its first years of existence, tooo-oz. consisted of twelve men-five professors and seven lecturers-who taught basic courses in political economy, accounting, and finance to a student body of eighty-nine. Today, forty years after, the Commerce faculty consists of two hundred and sixty-nine members-thirty-four professors, thirty-two associate professors, twenty-five assistant professors, nine lecturers. one hundred and twenty-six in- structors, a medical doctor, an employment secretary, and a secretary of student activities-who teach sixteen major courses. including hundreds of individual subjects, to a student body of 12.805, Charles Waldo Haskins, C.P.A. professor of auditing and of the history of acountancy, was the first dean of the School of Commerce. After his death in 1903. joseph French johnson, A.B. professor of political economy and finance. was appointed dean. Dean Johnson's idea was to secure the service of practical busi- ness men and public accountants as instructors and lecturers along lines in which they have arrived at.eminence. Among the most eminent men Dean johnson obtained were Joseph Hardcastle, Elijah A. Sells, and Frank .-X. Vanderlip. How- ever, the faculty was not a permanent body, and with the growth of the Day Division, Dean johnson saw the necessity of obtaining a group of professors and instructors who couldfdevote most of their time to teaching. Another of Dean johnson's views was that teachers of business subjects should keep in touch with practical affairs of the business world. This policy of appointing men closely associated with the Held which they lectured on is still prevalent. At the start the faculty had to find texts which covered the new subjects that were being taught at Commerce, and so some of the earlier faculty members began writing texts in such subjects as commercial law and accounting. Texts were particularly needed in commercial law, for in 1902 and 1903 Professor Bacon established the first commercial law courses, which were the hrst successful courses of their kind in the country. In 1926 o11r present dean, john T. Hadden, was appointed Dean of the School of Commerce, Accounts, and Finance. Dean Madden had been a student, instruc- tor in accounting, professor and head of the Accounting Department, a11d assistant dean under ex-Dean johnson, Dean Madden has followed the basic ideas 0f Dean johnson in the selection of the faculty of Commerce. That the School of Commerce faculty enjoys the reputation of being one of the best in the country and that thousands of alumni hold good positions in the business world, are indications of the success of the faculty.
