BUSINESS MARY DULEMBA, M.ED. Rutgers University Department Chairman The Business Education curriculum meets the needs of not only the vocationally-oriented student but the college bound as well. There is significant evidence of this fact in that almost every student who gradu- ates takes at least one business course, even if it is only typewriting. Today’s business is very sophisticated and demanding. The student ho was skilled in typewriting, shorthand and bookkeeping satisfied the business of yesteryear. Today, in addition to basic skills, he needs a knowledge of data processing, economics, consumer education, etc. He must have good communication skills, be inquisitive, resourceful, and have a knowledge of the world around him. The Business Education Department prepares the student voca- tionally; the remaining gap in the student’s education is met by the other areas in the school curriculum. In Alfred North Whitehead’s words: “The antithesis between technical and liberal education is fallacious. There can be no adequate education which is not liberal, and no liberal education which is not technical; that is, no education which does not impart both technique and intellec- tual vision. In simpler language, education should turn out the pupil with something he knows well and can do well.” GEORGE BOHONYI, B.A. Montclair State College ROBERT BORAK, B.A. Rutgers University SHIRLEY CHAPINSKI, B.A. Trenton State College STEPHENS CYRUS, M.A. Montclair State College PATRICIA HALTLI, B.S.

CATHERINE LUDLOW, M.A. Seton Hall University Department Chairman LANGUAGE QUINTIN HERNANDEZ, Dr. of Ed. University of Havana and University of South Florida DOROTHY PARKS, M.A. New York University JANET CULL, A.B. Randolph-Macon Women’s College The primary aim of the Foreign Language Department is to develop the ability of the student to understand, speak, read, and write the language being studied. The offerings are in French, German, Latin, Russian, and Spanish. The student is required to take a minimum of two years of one language to cover the basic groundwork. For those who excel in the language field and are interested in continuing the language on into college, later to pur- sue a language career, advanced courses in the third and fourth year are offered. There are presently two French teachers, two German teachers, one Latin teacher, one Russian teacher, and three Spanish teachers in the De- partment, involved with approximately one quarter of the school population. The Foreign Language Department has rapidly expanded in recent years and gives no evidence of slowing down at the present time. LORRAINE POTOCKI, A.B.
