FINANCIAL MATHEMATICS — Extra homework session? Kay White seems to be getting the point across! Mr. Wallace teaches the Financial Mathematics. (Continued from preceding page) the graduate diploma that I now study; rather it is for the knowl edge and interest which I will derive from and in the subject studied. “To give a comparison of train ing in business at Chowan with other institutions means to give flattery. However, I will say after listening to reports from students attending the University of Dela ware, Wesley College at Dover, and VPI at Blacksburg, that I feel very confident of my next two years of college life.” BARBARA JANE MORRISON, Concord, N. C., secretarial ad ministration, will seek a job in Charlotte. "I feel that I am better quali fied to get a job and to do better work on the job now than I would have been right after high school. By spending two years in college, I have learned many things other than those I acquired from my studies. A person in any phase of life has to be able to get along with people; this is especially true in the business field, and my time here has taught me that. "I have talked to a few friends from other junior colleges who are enrolled in business; and from what they tell me, the pro gram here Is much better and more difficult. The program here is good, but I wish that another semester of typing was taught. The office machines course could be improved by having more machines that will be used in the office." CHARLES A. JONES, Bruington, Virginia, two-year accounting, plans to attend Richmond Profes sional Institute. “Chowan has afforded me an in formal stepping stone from high school, which I hope to continue. It has given me a broad look at several different aspects of life through its liberal arts courses. “As my main field of work has been in the business field, I lean more favorably toward that depart ment. I feel that it is one of the better assets of the college, with its strength lying in the individual courses and their instruction.” ENID M. HARRELL, from Nor folk, Va., plans to attend Woman’s College, University of North Cor- olina. “I feel that I have received val uable training while at Chowan. I think that I have received as good an education here in business as I could have at any other college. Let me say I hold nu admiration for the English and Math Depart ments. I sincerely feel that the De partment of Business is superior to any other department on this campus. My brother and I have dis cussed our schools and the sub jects we have taken. He has at tended Campbell and Wake Forest Colleges. I believe that I have received equal training.” New Location Both students and faculty are anxious to occupy new quarters in the academic classroom building that is now under construction. The Department of Business will have all of its classes and instructors’ offices on the third floor of this modern and air-conditioned classroom building. In addition to the regular typewriting classroom, we are planning for a dual-purpose classroom for such courses as Secretarial Practice and Introduction to Transcription. There will be four specialized classrooms, the dual-purpose classroom, plus a conference room, and three general lecture rooms on this floor. The general lecture rooms will also be used by other departments when necessary. We believe that the overall efficiency of the Depart ment of Business will be greatly improved as a result of these well-planned quarters. 1^1 n f A ^ 3 0 ^ d X. -i SKo rV C.C.OWVN'il a -D—D—1 Type C\u»s -1 1 __ JJ TrvnJC.rt^'tio-n 0«n«ro>i poceJX»"t5 Lettore Etc.
