Students Prepare for Future in Business World Second year typing students get experience on the new electric typewriters. Whiting offers secretarial and business training to students during their junior and senior year. Typing is a two-year course and enables students to learn to type properly rough drafts and manuscripts. It also teaches students speed and accuracy. Shorthand gives the girls an opportunity to take dictation at an average rate of 100 to 129 words per minute and transcribe let- ters from their notes. Besides learning the operation of the ditto, calculating, and mimeograph machines, those enrolled in office practice learn filing and other useful skills. Bookkeeping is offered to provide training for the business students in learning to keep legible records of business transactions and the basic fundamentals of accounting. Second year students prepare to take their test of 120 words for three minutes.
