It consists of nineteen separate departments, and f .l rf' , not only offers the student a good general education, but also presents the oppor- fly N S 1 tunity of preparing for the advanced study of law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, J fail theology, or social service.

On completing his undergraduate work here, he went to Harvard University, where he studied in 1910-11, returning to the University of Illinois in 1912 as an instructor in economics. He continued his graduate work here, receiving his Ph. D. the next year. Since that time he has been serv- ing continuously on the faculty, accept- ing his present position in 1919. DEAN CHARLES M. THOMPSON XACTLY twenty-tive years ago, instruction in business began at the Uni- versity of Illinois. Then the teaching faculty comprised four meng now it numbers eighty. Then the student body was a mere handfulg now it exceeds two thousand. The aim of the College of Commerce and Business Administration has been during all these years to train its students in sound, fundamental principles of j..f11 business. Educationally, therefore, its work resembles somewhat that carried A on in colleges of arts and sciences, the chief difference being that in the College 51113 of Commerce all students are required to major in economics, and in closely 15 A allied fields of study such as accounting, administration, organization and law.
