BUSINESS DEPARTMENT Beginning- with the Summer School, June 14th, the Business De- partment of the College will be reorganized and reequipped for better and more extensive work. The department will be put under the direction of a man of theoretical and practical training. The demand for an up-to-date Business School in Klkins has been made and the College will undertake to meet this demand in all es- sentials. By reason of the increased cost in the reorganization of the School, it will be necessary to raise the tution charges. However, when compared with the prices of some other schools of the State, the charges are still very moderate and are made so only by reason of this department being partly maintained by the funds received from the other departments of the College. WHEN TO ENTER In as much as the work of the Business School is largely individ- ual, students may enter at any time. The courses are divided into three, six and nine months of study. It is best, of course, to enter at the beginning of the term, if in the Summer School June 14th. 23 FEES Registration and t3 r pewriter fees are paid at entrance, likewise half of the tuition charges in one or more subjects, the remainder is paj'-able on or before the middle of the term. No scholarships can be offered in the Business School, but to applicants who are unable to pay as required above, the President may extend the special courtesy of accepting- for tution charg-es a note properly secured and bearing five per cent interest from date of entrance, the note to fall due one year after the student will have left the Colleg-e. When necessary the note may be renewed for one year. This plan will enable any boy or girl who is worthy to obtain a thoroug-h business training- and then make the training- pay for itself. COURSES OFFERED The Courses and Charges for instruction per term of three months are as follows: English, (Spelling, Composition, Grammar), no charges. Commercial Arithmetic, $10.00 Stenography, 10.00 Typewriting, 5.00 Bookkeeping (Single or Double Entry) 15.00 Penmanship,.. 10.00 Commercial Law 5.00 Registration fee per term, 3.00 Typewriter rental (if used) per term, 1.00 As usual for the summer course of six to eight weeks, special reduction will be made from the regular charges, Write for terms in the Summer School. 24 ROLL OF STUDENTS 19 10—1911 SENIORS Aronold, E}ugene Hill Raese, Cleon Wilson, JUNIORS lOrvin, Dana Robert Riddle, Jesse Hail Scott, Samuel Warren SOPHOMORES Bell, Wayne Simpson..., Bray, Charles McChesney Smith, Edgar William Wilmoth, Ray Wilmoth, Russell Woods FRESHMEN Currence, Velma Belle Cutter, Ivillie Viola Bliason, Carl Grammar Gould, Sidney Ross Hardy, Walter Scott Harper, Carl Brown Lawton , Wilbur O'Connor, Robert Kmmett Raese, John Curtis Shumway, L,ydia Marguerite Sutherland, Natalie ;. .
