| Transcript | College Of Business Curriculum Takes Interdisciplinary Tone Time tests are necessary evils for secretarial students working on their typing skills. Many modern machines such as this audio secretary make learning secretarial tasks easier. Some important "firsts" were made this year in the College of Business in an effort to update the curriculum. In the past the General Business Administration curriculum covered several areas such as math, office administration and business communications. Now the college is divided into two separate departments referred to as the behavioral sciences and the quantitative management sciences. Math, statistics, research and data processing courses are taught in the quantitative department. The behavioral department offers courses concerned with the value theory of business. The management courses are designed to teach the student to be more effective in business, while the theory courses are set up to answer the question, "to what purpose?" Professors with degrees in psychology and sociology, the sciences that underlie business courses, were recruited to teach this new curriculum. Another first for the college was the creation of an advisory committee consisting of 13 businessmen, faculty and students. This committee tries to integrate the students and the college with the business community. Dean Ted R. Brannen Instructor in communications lab advises student. 269 |
