Education Courses Give Experience, Background The student studying education is preparing himself for that moment when he will take his position as a molder of the minds of tomorrow. His preparation grows as he becomes in- volved in the educational courses offered to him and buds forth OS he actually steps into the classroom as a student- teacher and observes and works with eager young students. Realizing the great responsibility which lies before him, the student prepares himself to meet his challenge with the desire to help others learn and become the tomorrow of our nation. It is a reality in the fast-moving and competitive world of today that there is an eminent need for qualified teachers and personnel - yesterday, today and tomorrow. The Depart- ment of Education at Millsops is striving to attain this goal by providing vast opportunity for the development of skill, self- reliance, and those inner resources which lead to self-mastery and happiness. Under the direction of Dr. Robert E. Moore, this department has continued to progress toward a goal of excellent service.

Economics Aids Students With Business Interests The social science which might seem to be least involved with social conditions is economics and business administration, but one of the aims of the department is to equip students with a more adequate understanding of modern economic so- ciety in order to assist its members in becoming intelligent citi- zens of the communities in which they live. The department al- so seeks to provide a thorough, basic foundation for special- ized graduate or professional study and to give students who expect to enter the business world a brood background and some of the fundamental information which will contribute to their success in their later lives. The curriculum of the Millsaps economics department follows the pattern recommended by the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business. For those interested in account- ing, the Millsaps curriculum offers the opportunity to take courses in all the subjects covered in the Certified Public Ac- countant examination. Graduates of this study ore permitted to take the CPA examination without the usual requirement of two years of apprenticeship experience.
