i 45355 NSE Of 8USiN Absorbed in her work this student in business lawfefonomics class busily fn ishes an assignment, SQMETI-HNG WE LIKE 60 Academics Fingers flew as the clicking of type- writers sounded unharmoniously throughout the room. Soft buzzing noises were produced by computers as students attempted to master the key- board. Eraser smudges marked the pages of an accounting notebook in yet another class in the business depart- ment. Equations, computer programs, punching the return key, strange curv- ing lines that translated into words . . . a wide range of courses were offered this year. The purchase of additional computers proved beneficial to stu- dents in data processing and typing. Secretarial skills were also gained in everything from accounting to word processing classes. Students were en- couraged to develop typing, account- ing, or even computer skills. The re- laxed, yet industrious atmosphere es- tablished by these classes gave many of us a welcomed change of pace from hectic schedules. This is not to say that business classes were not work but all fun. Trying to find an error in a pro- gram that just wouldn't run could be mind boggling, and everyone's exper- ienced the frustration of repeatedly hit- ting the wrong key on a typewriter. But the majority of us were doing some- thing we enjoyed and had chosen as an elective. Many students continued their education in a business curriculum at colleges and technical schools. Others found employment immediately after high school in area businesses. The skills gained in class helped all of these students to be very successful. It doesn't balance, Bruce Rayner asks accounting teacher Laura Gibbs for some help with his practice set.
