An examination of what has characterized Sch's of business administration in the past, what the developments are which are taking place & affect the status of business Sch's, & how these Sch's can best cope with these changes & new developments. It is noted that the dissatisfaction of the business community with the Sch's of business administration is expressed by the fact that many business Corp's which once hired business Sch graduates now hire engineers for management training & other types of employment programs. Business Sch's have not succeeded in producing sufficient numbers of high caliber individuals with the ability to think & with admin'ive capacity. Business org's in turn are becoming more & more subject to criticism from a moral, pol'al, & philosophical standpoint. The requirements for logical reasoning by businessmen outside their field point to the need for a broader & more liberal business educ which will enable men to handle questions in the world of ideas as well as in the business world. Some attempt should be made to develop these capabilities in the students. More emphasis must be given to the analytical approach & less to the descriptive courses. A greater understanding of mathematics & its application is required & more stress should be on the study of admin. Students should be required to aquaint themselves to some depth with the soc sci's & the humanities. Such a program of study would be more rigorous & more challenging to the student. It will require upgrading the courses, curricula, & methods of instruction. M. Maxfield.
