Concerning the latter, we refuse to be quoted. A former Pennsylvanian, professor Faust has rapidly adopted Missouri as a home. 1 l I JOHN G.

.and P. . l-larry Gunnison Brown, Dean The School of Business and Public Administra- tion was established by the Board of Curators in January, 1914. It is the aim of this school to equip students with a general knowledge of business and public administration and to provide training in special fields of business and public service. The greatest difficulty under which this school labored in its early days was a lack of material for study. It was not until after 1914 that business research was established, and many fields of business management were still unexplored for the purposes of study. As there were no textbooks and no satis- factory sources of material in many subjects, one of the achievements of this schoolwas to make the teaching of business and public administration possi- ble. The offering of such courses as sales manage- ment, retailing, industrial management, auditing, accounting, business statistics, municipal administra- tion, investments, labor problems, and others, is the evidence of growth, but of a growth that is far from being complete. Harry Gunnison Brown, of General Economics fame, is now serving as Dean of the B. and P. A. School. Page Z4

At this time Professor Sterling Price, J r., was appointed Normal Professor and Instructor of Greek. This first venture in teacher-training was short lived. The department was suspended in 1859 and was not re-opened until two years after the close of the Civil War. At this time the Board of Curators appointed Professor E. L. Ripley of Michigan as principal of the College of Normal Instructionf' The department went through several other reorganizations before it took the form of the School of Education in 1909, at which time Dr. W. W. Charters was elected Dean. The present dean of the school, Theo. W. H. Irion, was elected in 1930. All student teachers graduating from the School of Education receive practical experience teaching in the University laboratory school which consists of all grades from kindergarten through high school.
