Courses are available to students to prepare them- selves to be general office clerks, file clerks, receptionists, typists, stenographers, secretaries, salesmen, and bookkeepers. A business education provides a business background for every adult-the family man, the businessman, the housewife, the social and civic-organization member-wherever finances or economics are involved. To as great a degree as possible, the different courses in business education are geared for pre-training for automation requisites. Different courses are offered as the need arises, and each course is periodically evaluated and adjusted to meet the ever changing techniques in our business world. 4 W y Sq' in ta' 1 !
