DEAN D. D. CARROLL . .V T ii! lil BINGHAM HALL 'lFlHllE SCHUUL OF CUMMERCE The School of Commerce is the expression of the University's desire to serve the large percentage of young people who will go into some phase of busi- ness activity, but who cannot spend more than four years in preparation for such a career. Recognizing the need of a general understanding of our complex modern civilization as a basis of a happy and effective life, the first two years of the course of study given PAGE 26 in the General College emphasize the broad cultural aspects of education. The last two years given in the School of Commerce are devoted primarily to the de- velopment of an understanding of the principles and procedures of modern business. The teaching policy of the School assumes that training for business should consist not only of a knowledge of the organization and methods of the most important fields of business

lege and professional schools. With these purposes in view the University Administration tries systematically and vigorously to discover, encourage, and advance good teach- ing. Undismayed by the difficulty of defining this process, the Administration intends to carry on the deliberate ef- fort to multiply in Chapel Hill the teachers who quicken the intelligence, elevate the imagination, and fill the mem- ories of undergraduates. Of the effects of this undertak- ing seniors will be the best judges now and in the years to come. The active administration of the General College is the responsibility of a staff of ten faculty advisers. Each ad- viser serves as the dean of his group of students. From the time of admission until his junior year, each student is associated with one adviser who attempts to make avail- able and to consider with the student all relevant informa- tion in helping him to make academic and personal de- cisions. Through this association, the adviser helps to in- dividualize and humanize the student's participation in the life of the university.

activity, but in addition should develop an understand- ing of the problems and larger relationships of the economic system as a whole. In the attempt to give the student a practical basis for his life, care is taken that he shall not lose sight of his social obligations or his cultural needs. The Credo of the School is stated as follows: We believe that eliminating waste, releasing new energies, and organizing more effectively in our eco- nomic life, will reduce the burden of humanity, raise the standards of well-being, lay the basis for finer and more abounding cultural agencies, and bring the race within reach of enlarged andienriched opportunity. Business then takes its place as one of the great ave- nues of consecration to the common wealg and states- manlike leadership and achievement in this held are rich in human benefaction.
