Simmons College Business law is a class that is not widely known at Central. It is an extremely valuable class for anyone but does not have a large enrollment. Business law offers basic understanding of how a contract is made. Other classes offered by the business education de- partment are clerical practice, typing, bookkeeping, stenography, shorthand, and office machines. Typing classes have always been the largest busi- ness classes due to the lack of space. Typing enroll- ment is large since it is offered to anyone who wants to take it. Approximately 95 per cent of the students who desire to take typing are able to. From Typing l classes approximately M of the students continue with Typing ll.
