only men who have had graduate
study at some university leading
to the Doctor of Philosophy de-
gree. The entrance requirements
of the College have been steadily
raised so that the completion of a

practical insight into business and
industrial conditions today.

these commercial subjects in the
University of Michigan and comes.
