justness Sbmimstration he primary aim of collegiate education for business is to train for effective business management. Ever since its foundation in 1910, Marquette University’s College of Business Administration has striven to supply scientific training in Commerce to young men and women. Milwaukee, with its population of al-most 6fX),()00, affords splendid facilities lor business training. The city is virtually the market place of Wisconsin and northern Michigan. It is one of the industrial leaders of the country. The College makes use of this excellent business laboratory, bringing both the student and the faculty in direct contact with the organization, policies, and practices of representative firms in various lines of business. In some of the courses, organized inspection trips to the leading business concerns of the city arc conducted. The purpose of these trips is to utilize the opportunities offered by Milwaukee in such a way as to provide students with actual laboratory facilities for a scientific study of business and to supplement the classroom instruction with concrete illustrative material. Each student is expected to s] end the vacation |»criod between his junior and senior years in the type of business which he plans to enter after graduation. With this educational foundation the student cannot fail to grasp the significance of both his life’s work and American financial practices. After seventeen years as director of the college, Dean J. Freeman Pyle took up his duties in the same capacity at the University of Maryland last summer. September. 1942. found the Rev. Thomas F. Divine. S. J., as professor and head of the Department of F.con omics as well as successor to Dean Pyle.
