Business law has shown me what flaws we have in our judicial system and how as a citizen I can change these flaws. Amy Jones (12) Senior Krisca Pace displays her impres- sion of a secretary hard at work. Executives emerge Students develop necessary business skills If Ivan Boesky had the chance to take business coufses when he was in high school he would still be a powet figute on Wall Street today. Could there possibly be a future For- tune 500 member here at Marshall? You bet! The business depart- ment offers courses such as accounting, business law and computer program- ming. These courses are helping students learn about the fast paced num- ber crunching world of high finance and big busi- ness. Some students not seeking the Wall Street way of life chose courses such as typing, note taking, and shorthand. When someone men- tions big business do you think of a fat, cigar smok- ing Jackie Gleason type ex- ecutive sitting behind a huge desk in a cushy pent- house office counting prof- its? Well, think again! Se- nior Mark Webster said, Business is not just sitting behind a desk and inter- viewing people. You have to be well rounded in sev- eral fields if you hope to do good and be successful. I wasn ' t sure what I was going to major in once entering college, said Se- nior Angle Kraus, But af- ter taking accounting I have a feeling it will be my career goal. These courses are preparing a number of students for a career in one of the most challenging fields in the world job mar- ket. Junior Matthew Mu- noz admits, I will make it big in the business world! Don t be too surprised if you are leafing through your copy of the Wall Street Journal a few years down the road and read an article about one of your past classmates. Just re- member the business de- partment of your high school is where it all began. Article; Glenn Grossman, Jeanneiic Gonzales Photos: Eric MiUer Business 43
