SCHOOL of BUSINESS The School of Business Administration, composed of the major fields of marketing, finance, accounting, industrial manage- ment, and economics, offers the Bachelor of Science degree in business administra- tion and the BA in business and economics. The aim of the school is not to provide de- tailed training in specific tasks, but to develop in the student the skills and state of mind necessary to adapt to the ever changing business world. Since becoming a school four years ago, Business Admini- stration has grown and improved in ac- cordance with the demands of the con- temporary business world. Henry C. Hawley 24
