ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY Banking and Finance, Business English IN MIQMORIANI PROFESSOR A. H. ROSENKAMPFF In Banking and Finance opportunities are practically unlimited, because the scope of the business is so broad. Some Commerce students take courses in Banking and Finance for personal use. However, for those who desire to make a career for themselves in the financial world, the School of Commerce, Accounts and Finance offers courses in six specialized areas: corporation finance, personal finance, credit, banking, investments and insurance. The task of the Banking and Finance faculty is to keep the students abreast of the many changes in 'banking and financial practice, and to teach them how to deal with day-to- day developments. The first step in this direction was in 1903, when the first course in Practical Banking was given. Also in 1903, the Banking and Finance Department added its first feminine touch when the first woman teacher at New York University, conducted a class in Bond Buying. Three years later, anticipating the panic of 1907, the school offered a course in Panics and Depressions. In 1906, the course in the Theory and History of Banking was concerned with the reforms in the banking system that did not come until 1913. The Banking and Finance Department was organized in 1915 under the leadership of Dr. Grosenberg. In 1928, as a result of the boom years in our economy, New York University experienced its largest enrollment in the financial department. It is to the student's advantage that the School of Com- merce, Accounts and Finance is located in New York City, the business capital of America, and within minutes of almost every major commercial enterprise. This enables students to supplement book training by constant touch with the realities of theworld of finance. Many members of the faculty have been closely associated with Wall Street activities for many years. The Business English Deparfmeni' is founded on the fact that one of the saddest truths in the business world today is that so few people can say or write what they mean. Realization of this fact came to the School of Com- merce in 1905 when Dean johnson taught the first course in Business English. The principles set down by Professor Hotch- 19
