THE COLLEcGE OF COMMEKCE Morion Arnold At drich, A.B., Pii.D. Dean The purpose of this college has been, since its establishment in 191+, to offer substantial profes- sional training pr eparatory to a business career. The instruction offered is planned for students suf- ficiently able and mature to do work of univer- sity grade, and no student is received unless prepared to do work of this character. It is es- sential, also, to the permanent succe:s of the college that its students approach their work in an earnest professional spirit. In order to make the course available for business men and women, classes are also held at night from 8 to 9:45 o ' clock. These classes meet in Gibion Hall, Tulane University, each course being held one night a week. By thus devoting only one night a week to attending a course, a student may take any of the night courses offered. 27
