Teachers B.S Jean Truckenmiller VVcstern Michigan College B S Dearborn's commercial department offers six different courses which can be of use to all students. These include bookkeeping, business English, oflice machines, retailing, shorthand, and typing. For anyone on the college course, shorthand and typing can be invaluable aids. Shorthand can be used for taking notes on class discussions or lectures, and typing reports and themes can save many hours. Commercial students are prepared through these six courses for a variety of positions. They may become stenographers, typists. bookkeepers, or sec- retaries. Girls who plan to become homemakers will find a background of com- merical subjects helpful. Everyone can use bookkeeping in filling out income tax forms or in keeping bank account records. Under the capable direction of the instructors, students learn the various business subjects in modern, efficient classrooms. After graduation they are well able to hold desirable positions in business. Mrs. Olsen 15 helping a student with a problem. Her office machines class is shown on the left.
