Business W orld Studied in Depth For students who are not planning on a college education, business courses are offered. As usual, typing and shorthand were in great demand as they taught basic business skills. To supplement this basic knowledge, students had a choice of sev- eral additional courses such as book- keeping, transcription, sales, general busi- ness, and business law. Bookkeeping students figured credit, debt, financial liability, and income, and then balanced them to the respective budgets. Shorthand i ncluded dictation tests which had to be successfully com- pleted to pass the course. Transcription combines shorthand and typing skills, while business law and sales provide stu- dents with knowledge of commercial procedures which will benefit them in their future relations in the business world.
