Show THOMAS A. BEAL Dean of the School of BusinessSchool of BusinessBECAUSE the term "School of Commerce and Finance" seemed to be rather ill-chosen on account of many problems of business having only a slight relation to Commerce and Finance as such, in the fall of 1927, the name was changed to the School of Business. This title complies more fittingly with the courses offered in the Departments of Business and Economics, and in addition it is simpler and more appropriate. Also, it is in keeping with the titles used by many other institutions.The real object of the School of Business is to deal primarily with the principles underlying business practice, as well asthe best methods of putting these principles into operation. In brief, the purpose of the School is to offer an opportunity to study business in its varied forms.In the School of Business one has the advantage of a college training that makes one better fitted for his work, better disciplined, better trained, and with a more generous spirit and determination to do something worth while. Business is constantly in need of new men to replace those passing out of business and to supply the increasing demand created by the growth of population and the expansion of business activities, Schools of Business are supplying this new blood.T.
