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.

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

GRADUATE SCHUUL The graduate school, ideally considered, is a group of qualilied teachers and students applying themselves in freedom and with the necessary library and labora- tory resources to the problems that interest them. It has a province peculiar to itself in the investigation, discovery, and application of truth. According to tra- dition, this search for truth has been incessant and should be continuous, In this work the school enter- tains the ideal of excellence as a rule of practice. This sort of activity has been and is a part of civilization. It is perhaps the verifiable way of progress. It occurs PAGE 28 outside as well as in graduate schoolsg but the schools are formally organized educational agencies for this purpose. As an educational agency, the school is func- tionally interested in the materials of knowledgeg it is concerned with that verification of that knowledge on evidence and with the expansion of it by discovery. In the conscientious performance of this duty is to be found the surest justification of the university as dis- tinguished from the college.
