'QfFlllfTl ElIlll1QQ School of Forestry The School of Forestry, one of the leading schools on the campus, has among its enrollment students from almost every state in the Union. In- struction along two distinct lines is provided: an undergraduate course of four years allowing specialization in the various branches of forestry, and a graduate course leading to the degree of Master of Science in For- estry. In 1913 the state legislature estab- l'sl1ed the School of Forestry in the llniversity. ln 1909 the Government Forest Service in co-operation with the University had established a Ranger School on the campus but in 1910 the University took over the management of the school. The Ran- ger School Was discontinued four years ago. The School of Forestry now ranks among the highest in the United States. Students and faculty members in the school are organized into a For- estry club which promotes scientific discussion of forestry problems and fosters social spirit among its mem- bers. The school is unique in its being located near to every forest type of the inland northwest. NVork in the forestry nursery is of advantage to the state farmers as evidenced by the fact that more trees and shrubs were sent out to them this year than ever before. 4-.

Line. The school offers a business man's training in banking, financing, trans- portation, marketing, merchandising, trading and public utilities. The School of Business Administra- tion Was first organized on the Mon- tana campus in 1914. Shirley J. Coon, the first dean, was succeeded by Dean Line, a Montana graduate who had done advanced Work at Harvard Uni- versity. Since the school 's organi- zation there has been a rapid increase in enrollment Which ranks it among the larger schools of the University today. All Women in the school are organ- ized into the Commerce club which furthers the interests of Women in business. Men in the school who have done distinctive Work are or- ganized in Alpha Kappa Psi, men's national professional fraternity. As a result of many demands from members of the school and other schools and departments on the cam- pus for courses in typewriting and shorthand, the School of Business Administration this year sponsored courses in these subjects. A large en- rollment appeared in both divisions under the instruction of Miss Emily Maclay. aid' in I -y--1.4 IJ
