BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION HE College of Business Administration was founded as a School in 1919 and reor- ganized as a College in 1921. Students re- ceive not only a thorough training in profes- sional business subjects but also a cultural background. In the first two years the cur- riculum consists largely of courses offered in Liberal Arts. In the last two years the stu- dent concentrates on professional subjects. The first floor of Slocum Hall, so used to the footsteps of potential secretaries and future business executives, now echoes the tread of the Army Air Corps Crewmen enroute to the Branch Post Exchange now located in Slocum Hall Auditorium.

JCURNAL HIS was the first year under the new departmentalization for the School of Journalism. The new de- partments, graphic arts, business management, advertising, editorial practice, and radio pushed the repu- tation of the school almost to the top nationally. Housed in the romantic Castle, Journalism is the most in- formal of all the colleges, students and professors become fast friends, spend hours talking over methods and new ideas within the Fourth Estate. Budding journalists study all aspects of news and story writing, obtain practical experience in advertising, printing, and photography. Juniors and seniors must maintain B aver- ages in journalism subjects to remain as students in the school. The school backs the Daily Orange and the Onondagan, two strictly stu- dent publications where theories are put to practice. Men and women be- long to two honoraries, Sigma Delta Chi for men, and Theta Sigma Phi for women. Chancellor Tolley was presented with the Orange Beret at the Journalism banquet as the out- standing faculty member of the year. Dean M. Lyle Spencer relinquished his duties to assume the title of Dean of the War Service college as Dr. Douglass Miller took over very cap- ably as acting dean. ISM if
