Business New major expands business t's been difficult, but excellent. When you leave the classes, you have a good handle of what it's all about, said Garry Clark, senior, evaluating the quality of :he business classes. The business and econ- omics department has grown into the largest department on campus with over 300 students enrolled. Two new faculty members, David Danford, a full-time instructor, and Tod Tiehard, who taught part-time, were added to the staff. The program was expand- ed by the addition of an office administration major. The other fields of study in the department included account- Ill faculty. Research was being done by Mrs. Curtis to help the department plan long range goals that would accomodate its continued growth. Concerning the other classes in the curriculum, Clark said, The classes are pretty good. I think the program is one of the best in the country. I left another school because , the program was poor. More- over, the teachers here really care about how well the students are doing. Lynnette Moreland, sen- ior, suggested some possible improvements. The implica- tions of the Christian as a business person should be emphasized more. Accounting and management principles are stressed to the students, how- ever, what is ethical and what ing, business education, econ- omics, and management.
