Dean of the School of Commerce, Ezra T. Towne received his B.L. at the University of Wisconsin, and re- ceived a Ph.D. at Halle University in Germany. Dean Towne believes in strict exactitude, and his gradu- ates find this rule much to their ad- vantage upon graduation. SCHOOL OF With the increasing complexity of modern industry, today's demand in the business and professional world is for trained men and women. The School of Commerce prepares the student for general business, accounting, banking and finance, in- surance, merchandising, public ad- ministration, consular service, foreign trade and the teaching of commer- cial subjects. The ultimate hope of every com- merce graduate is to join the big money alumni group. In the spring, seniors get their test when represen- tatives of big business firms come to the school for interviews with pros- pective business men and women.

PRESIDENT WEST Epitomizing the capable, dignified university president, John C. West has won the trust and admiration of UND students. They recognize and appreciate his interest in their school. They are confident that his ef- forts in their behalf will be carried through to the best of his ability. President West this year traveled to the state capitol with the students petition for the Mem- orial Student Union so long needed at this Uni- versity. May that be just one more of the milestones in this man's efforts to give the stu- dents better facilities in which to gain the knowledge he holds so near to his heart.
