Block programs enhance business education “How do you expect me to type without looking at the keys?” As fu- ture secretaries soon find out, there is more to business than typing. The Block program, involving a two period class block, enables the stu- dent to concentrate one hour of study in shorthand, typing, or bookkeeping. The remaining time is spent dealing with practical application of business law, economics, accounting, and other related skills. Senior business students have the option of entering the Cooperative Of- fice Education program, where they are able to apply their skills in offices of local employers. Benefits exceed personal satisfaction of a job well done, as many C.O.E. students sec- ure jobs with these employers after graduation. 1. Graves, Brenda J. Longwood College, B.S.
