Business surrounds Bishop Dwenger country A bove: Students can ' t elude Sr. Marcia ' s checking oj lardies, even if they do have a good reason. This year, if you walked past a shorthand class you would have seen young secretaries feverishly taking dictation. Upon entering the typing room, students would be proofreading or finding Office Practice more dif- ficult than it looked. Perturbed ac- countants would amble by still trying to figure why the numbers didn ' t add right. Notehand, a course which will be offered for the 1969-70 school year is very similar to shorthand. It consists of both letters and symbols. This is a tremendous aid for taking notes in class. This course and personal typing, also helpful in classwork, are recom- mended by the business department for college-bound students. Sister Carmen and the business teachers gave encouragement, when- ever needed, to disheartened students after a dav at the office. Below: Salesmen Mr. K rouse displays a B.D. jacket to D. Voors, T.
