Typewritting, shorthand, computers-The Business Depart- ment allows the opportunity to become acquainted with and develop skill in subjects which are practical. Such skills are very necessary in a society where the small business is very common. The business department lets students become self-sufficient in these necessary skills. In a society such as ours, the private business, be it large or small, is the most practical means of making it . Because of the business department, Drury students are able to realize this goal.
