College of Business
Administration
F
one may judge the future by past events and present
tendencies, it is safe to say that the College of
Business Administration will always have a place in
the University of Nebraska.
The University is a little world
of its own, reflecting the great outer world of people
and things, preparing the younger generation to take
its place and to play its part in its various fields
of thought and action, of which the field of business
is by no means the least.
The College is likely to have an
increasing number of students. To give them proper
instruction and training, there must be a larger
faculty--more teachers such as we now have, men of
broad culture, scientific spirit, and intimate
knowledge of business conditions and problems.
The curriculum will be improved
and strengthened, standards will be raised, as it
comes to be understood that the college is a
professional school, with definite objects in view,
where the students are obtaining knowledge and
training for their life work as business men and
citizens.
Graduates, already more than five
hundred in number, will be occupying important
positions in the business world, and will be able to
contribute in many ways to the success of our work,
within and without the college walls.
The college will continue to
develop its work of business research, the value of
which can hardly be over-estimated. The chief purpose
of this is to ascertain the best practice in every
kind of business and to make it widely known and
generally followed.
This will make for the greatest
efficiency in both private and public business, and
benefit not only business men as such, but the general
public as consumers and taxpayers.
The College of Business
Administration, like the other colleges of the
University, will have a suit, able building, as a
center for its various activities and a place where
our graduates and other business men and women of the
state may feel at home.
