A wide choice of courses is offered. Included are stenography, typewriting, and office machine practice. There arc others. Although there arc no A.P. courses in which advanced credit is given, there are advanced courses offered, which are undertaken by many able students. Newly instituted is a course in alphabet shorthand. This course is primarily for college-bound seniors. It is of great use in note-taking, and can also be of advantage in part-time or summer employment. The department's only complaint is that more college-bound students arc not taking advantage of the business courses offered. Typewriting, for example, is a skill that one can use throughout life, while other courses in the department arc extremely helpful to those students who will major in business administration in college.
