Q 7 9 0 7 ' HE College of Business Administration is Q 5 ' The high school record of each applicant for admission has been more carefully examined than in the past years. This means a better prepared first-year student. The fifth year of the college has been notable for the fact that the work of the students has been more uniformly excellent than in the past years. It has also been notable for the good - spirit which the students have had among themselves and toward the faculty and admini- stration. It is the expectation that the college will have few changes in the immediate future. The college as a whole expects in the immediate future to have the same courses, the same organization, the same working force and the same sympathetic spirit among students and faculty.
