Redskins earn and learn from business courses Business students were offered a wide variety of classes from Business Law to Shorthand and Merchandis- ing. Mrs. Charlotte Camfield, depart- ment head, said, Traditionally Manual has always had a high en- rollment in business courses. Other than basic business educa- tion, the Business Department offer- ed two federally reimbursed work programs, Cooperative Office Edu- cation and Distributive Education. In these programs, students attended classes in the morning and had on- the-job training at a local organiza- tion in the afternoon. COE student Bobbie Lloyd com- mented, I think COE is an excellent chance for students to combine what they learn in school with actual experience. Distributive Education (DE) was a program for seniors who did not plan to attend college. The only courses necessary to become eligi- ble were Sales and Merchandising. When entering this program the student would earn two credits per semester, one for the class and one for the job. Most of the jobs had starting salaries of $2.10 per hour. Miss Sue Workman, DE teacher, commented, DE is a really terrific program. I have many students working at warehouses, and places such as Blocks, Ayres, Lane Bryant and ad agencies. The students also get jobs as credit office workers, cashiers, or an inventory operator. 1 — Accounting I students Valerie Crenshaw, Shirley Burt, and Bonnie Loyd work hard dur- ing class time. 2 — Mr. Roy Caulder hands back classwork to Robin Castle in Accounting I class. 3 — Using class time to their advantage, sen- iors Dorothy Dana and Denise Boat study shorthand. 4 — The dictaphone gives seniors Patty Buckle and Angie Mc Hugh office training in an advanced shorthand class. 5 — Pursuing knowledge, Carolyn Willis asks Mr. Hugh Hughes a question in Data Process- ing while Tom Davis looks around. 6 — Mrs. Phyllis Sullivan explains the work- ings of a business machine to seniors Shari Davis, Terri Curtis, and Linda Domangue. 18 Business
