34--- 3. The Wheelwright Student-Faculty Loan Fund, established in 1946 by David R. Wheelwright. The contribution of $2,000 was made with the idea that it be a perpetual trust fund-to be loaned to worthy, needy students and also to faculty members. Application for these funds may be made to the College Treasurer. Placement and Follow-up Service The purpose of the Weber College Placement and Follow-up Service is two-fold: (1) to assist students in securing part-time employment while attending college, and (2) to assist graduates in obtaining permanent positions. The College works in cooperation with the local employment office of the Utah State Department of Employment Security to find suitable employment opportunities for students and to maintain current and accurate information concerning employment and occupational trends. The Community Services The community assists the College in accomplishing the aims of its curriculum and services by reason of its location, the nature of its enterprises, and its environment. The natural advantages of Ogden City and its area are shared by the College and its students in such ways as the following: 1. The businesses, shops, and industries of Ogden City provide outstanding opportunities which enable students to take part-time employment and to work while they learn. This advantage is especially helpful in making arrangements for courses where both theory and practice are essential. Ogden is particularly attractive as a technical trade-training center on account of the openings available to students who complete their training courses in the trades. 2. The natural location of the community which the College serves enables it to cooperate with the high schools and senior institutions, the homes, and the students who are graduated from Box Elder, Davis, Morgan, and Weber County Districts. These students may live at home and attend school, a social and economic advantage to parents and students, especially married veterans who are able to attend school in the city where they are employed, where they have work and training opportunities, and where they have homes in the community. 3. The Ogden locality affords abundant opportunity for field trips, observation, and study in courses in the sciences and the arts. Field trips in such subjects as botany, zoology, engineering, geography, geology, social studies, art, and photography are regularly scheduled. Situated forty miles from the Utah State Capitol, and within driving distance to mining and industrial interests of the magnitude of the Geneva Steel Mills and the Bingham Copper Mines, the College has access to these additional educational resources of the community. 4. The environmental features of the Ogden locality afford such recreational opportunities as mountain hiking, trout fishing, hunting, boating, swimming, golfing, motoring, skating, and skiing, all of which are utilized in the activity program of the College. CURRICULA AND COURSES OF INSTRUCTION Transfer and Terminal Curricula Students who enroll at Weber College should decide between two programs: (1) a program which qualifies them for upper division standing in a senior university or college, or (2) a program that ends with the junior college and usually leads into the semi-professions and industry. Curricula or courses paralleling the work of a cultural, semi-professional, trade, industrial, business, or other occupational nature that will qualify students to enter the industrial or commercial world at the end of two years or less of study are designed for those who choose the second program. Courses numbered from 1 to 49 inclusive belong to the first program and are called "transfer courses." Courses numbered 50 and above belong, in the case of most curricula, to the second program and are called "terminal courses." Credit for terminal courses is allowed by senior institutions which offer similar programs but might not be accepted by universities and colleges where these programs are not catalogued. Division of Economics and Business Guy H. Hurst, Acting Chairman The Division of Economics and Business aims to give opportunity for a liberal education with special emphasis upon the commercial, social, and economic phases of life. In order to realize this objective, to meet the growing demand for specialized refresher training, and to keep pace with recent tendencies in education, the Division offers courses designed for three specific groups of students- 1. Those preparing for upper division standing in institutions of higher learning who desire to pursue courses leading to the baccalaureate degree in such fields as accounting, business administration, economics, marketing, and secretarial science. 2. Those who desire to restrict their schooling to two years of semi-professional training in one of the several phases of commerce and industry, such as accountancy, management, or secretarial science. The curricula qualify the student to receive the Certificate of Completion. 3. Those who seek short-term, intensive training in certain specific business skills such as stenography, operation of office machines, and typewriting. The curricula are designed especially for the student who is restricted, because of circumstances, to pure essentials in his formal training. A student should study the curricula that follow in the light of his specific need for training, and choose the program that will contribute the maximum to his economic and social objectives.
