THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1952 N0.2
New School of Business Will
Open Here In September .,53
The University of Louisville's eleventh college will be established in the fall of next year. It
will be known as the U of L School of Business. Dr. John R. Craf, currently head of the depart­ment
of economics and commerce, has been selected dean of the new school.
One of the science buildings,
probably Chemistry, which will
be vacated upon completion of
the new Natural Science Build­ing,
will be used to house the
School of Business.
The school will offer a two year
program leading to a baccalaure­ate
degree of science and a gradu­ate
degree of Master of Business
Administration. An undergradu­ate
may enroll in the school in his
junior year. The graduate degree
will be offered by the school
through the present facilities of
the U of L graduate school.
Night classes in economics and
commerce will be continued, as
now, through the Division of
Adult Education.
Specialized Fields
While the department of eco­nomics
and commerce, as a sub­division
of the College of Arts and
Sciences, will be disolved, the sec­retarial
science classes will re­main
under A & S and will not
be offered through the School of
Business.
Specialized fields of study un­der
the new school will include
economics (theory, history, geo­graphy),
accounting, banking and
finance, marketing, and manage­ment;
all are subject to change
as further plans are made for the
school.
Students may take pre-business
in the junior college of A & S,
and at the completion of general
education and business require­ments,
may be admitted to the
senior college of the School of
Business.
Specific Objectives
It is hoped that the internship
programs, such as are now offer­ed
in accounting, will be broad­ened.
At present there are no
plans for setting up co-operatives
in business, however.
The specific objectives of the
School of Business include these
three:
1 The preparation of students
for roles of leadership in economic
enterprise, whether it be small or
large, public, private or associa­tional.
2 The development of scholars,
teachers, ana researchers whose
special interest and competence
will be in the area of problems re­lating
to the individual firm and
business policy and to the organi­zation
and administration of men
and property for productive pur-poses.
3 The conduct of research that
advances the arts and sciences of
business management.
The School of Business will also
have the responsibility for teach­ing
students "how to live, as well
Deferment Tests Offered
For University Students
Selective Service Qualification Tests will be given to Univer­sity
of Louisville students December 4, 1952, and April 23, 1953.
These tests will be administered on Belknap Campus.
Students whose academic year 4 test so they will have a test
will end in January, 1953, have score in their cover sheets before
been urged te> take the December the end of their academic year.
SDA Unit Started;
Kesselman Will Be
Faculty Sponsor
Attempts are being made to
form a U of L chapter of Students
for Democratic Action, which is
an affiliate of Americans for
Democratic Action.
Dr. Louis C. Kesselman, chair­man
of the Department of Politi­cal
Science, is serving as faculty
advisor to the group.
ADA was founded nationally in
1947, and since that time it has
acquired chapters in every part
of the country. Wilson Wyatt,
chairman of the U of L Board of
Trustees, was the first National
Chairman of ADA. Francis Bid­dle,
former Postmaster-General of
the U.S., is the current National
Chairman.
There will be an organizational
meeting for those interested in
joining SDA tomorrow at noon, in
Gardiner 105. Dr. Kesselman re­ported
Monday that no invitations
have been issued for the meeting
this Friday, and that it is open to
all wl\'o might be interested.
At that time their boards will
re-open and reconsider their cases
to determine whether they should
be defered as students.
Eligibility for these tests is
limited to those men who intend
to request deferment as students,
are satisfactorily pursuing a full­time
course of instruGtion, and
have not previously taken the
Selective S e r v i c e Qualification
Test.
The present criterion for defer­ment
as an undergraduate stu­dent
is either a score of 70 on
the Selective Service Qualifica-.
tion Test or specified rank in his
class (upper half of the male
freshmen class, upper twG- irds
of the male sophomore class, or
upper three-fourths of the male
junior class.) ,
Graduate Status
Students accepted for admission
or attending graduate school prior
to July 1, 1952 satisfy the criteria
if their work is satisfactory.
Graduate students admitted or at­tending
after July 1, 1951, must
have been in the upper half of
their classes during their senior
year or have made a score of 75
or better on the test. It is not
mandatory, however, for the local
boards to follow these qualifica­tions.
as how to earn a living. As it will
be the obligation of every gradu­ate
to participate intelligent)y in
civic, professional, political ano
social activities of life, every stu­dent
of the School of Business,
in order to widen his scope of
· knowledge and interest, will be
required to take courses offered
by one or more of the other col­leges
of the University." The
School o~ Business will offer no
courses that . are now being offer­ed
by any other school of the
University.
"The establishment of t h e
School of Business will add t~e
element of professionalism to
training for the commercial and
industrial world, the area which
the majority of university stu­dents
will enter," said Woodrow
M. Strickler, Vice-President of
the University .
More Complete Program
Under the School of Business,
administrative authorities will
have had training in business
practices and will think in terms
of business education. This will
lead to closer relationships with
the business community, says
Strickler.
With a School of Business, stu­dents
will have the more complete
program of study and the degree
from a r ecognized school of busi­ness
that have become so mean­ingful
in the industrial and busi­ness
world. The University will
no longer have to explain, "We
have no Schoo] of Business, but
a student can get substantially
the same kind of training in +he
College of Arts and Sciences."
That phrase was not a satisfactory
answer.
Establishment of the School of
Business should attract students
to U of L, since students desiring
an education in business want to
go to a university where there is
such a school.
Craf Cl1osen Head
Of Business School
Dr. John R Craf, present head
of the economics department at
U of L, has lbeen selected to serve
as dean of the new School oi
Business. Although already busy­with

duties until September, 1953
