THEODORE H. CARTER Business Administration Head It is the function of this department to be geared with industry and kept vocationally strong to meet the needs of business. Occupational competency, coupled with an intelli- gent understanding of, and an ardent belief in, the American free-enterprise business system, is a cornerstone of economic well-being in our business administration department. Busi- ness education cannot exist for its iob preparation courses alonep it must contribute its share to the citizenship of all. It not only must teach specialized young people to earn a livingp it must also teach the large mass of young people how to live in an economic community.
