SCHOOL OF BUSINESS account, in this commercial age and in the commercial city of Omaha, for the rapid growth of the Department. The world today needs art as much as it needs science. Enrollment in this Department is so airanged as to permit people of all ages, sex, and previous conditions of education to take advantage of the opportunities offered. The high school graduate may enter the De- partment and, while pursuing the commercial branches, secure University credit, leading to a degree in Commercial Science. He is also enabled by this method not only to secure his degree but, also, to prepare himself for immediate sei vice and a position in the business world. The non-high school graduate may enroll as a non-credit student and, while not being qualified to receive University credit, may prepare himself for active business under the splendid supervision and with the substan- tial backing of a strong, well-established, and well-known University. The University graduate may enroll in this Department and, by the proper selection of subjects, become equipped both for service in the busi- ness world and for the teaching of commercial subjects in the public schools of the country, and at the same time earn the proper University credits to be applied on a degree in Science. In addition to the manual commercial arts, are added courses in analy- tical salesmanship, advertising, business organization, and above all, daily information in law, including statutory, parliamentary, and common law. These subjects are taught in a practical way and widen the mental horizon and develop power of expression, self confidence, and all of those traits which militate for the success of an individual in the field of business. Social, athletic, and literary activities are handled by a student or- ganization, patterned much after the Commercial Clubs of the countiy, in which the student will find an outlet for self expression later in life. ll1lll[llTIT[lTmlflll]]lll[i]UIllIl|]lllRJM ((t3y [231

In this Department are found those vocational subjects which equip a young man or woman to enter the business world immediately upon the completion of the different courses. In this Department, ability to do is the chief objective, rather than the acquisition of theoretical systems. The shop talk of the Department is speed, rate, accuracy, etc. What is your rate in typing, in shorthand? Will you win a medal this month ? How fast are you on the Dictaphone ? Are you on the posting machine ? Have you passed the test on the multi- giaph? What set of Accounting have you completed? These questions indicate the extreme practicability of the work of the Department and
