| } - September 10, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 37 Illinois Journalism Courses to Stress Business Management Courses in the business administra- tion of newspapers will be stressed during the opening session of the new School of Journalism recently estab- lished at the University of Illinois, according to Lawrence W. Murphy, acting director of the school, Tuesday. This decision was reached following a meeting of the University authorities with a committee of the Illinois Press association. The new School of Journalism, au- thorized by the fifty-fifth General assembly, sponsored by the newspaper men of the state, and with the full approval of the University authorities, will offer, in addition to business ad- ministration courses, a complete cur- riculdim of courses covering every phase'of the newspaper profession be- ginning with the opening of school this fall. Heretofore, the courses offered by the university have been given by the College of Arts and Sciences. The increasing number of students and the advances being made in thé profession created a demand for the separate school which has been created. So rapid has been the growth of interest in journalism since 1903 when the first course in journalism was offered by the university that the work now being offered has taken on a pro- fessional character. The school has been established to provide facilities and instruction for students who wish to prepare to make newspaper work their life work. Op- portunities for graduates include not only newspaper work proper, but criti- cal writing and reviewing, publicity and public relations, magazine writing of all kinds and other types of writing for the general public. According to the requirements now in force for students entering the new school sixty hours credit in the uni- versity in subjects of general import- ance are necessary. The Daily Illini and the other uni- versity student publications offer the School of Journalism ample opportuni- ty to put into actual practice the work covered in the courses offered. In addition to this practical work, a H- brary of more than 800,000 books and phamphlets are available as well as many files of current and past news- papers and magazines. Registration in the School of Jour- agliem will be held from Sept. 16 to Mrs. Cuthbert C. Adams returned to her home at 199 Linden avenue last week-end after a week's visit with Mrs. Frank Blatchford at Desbarets, Ontario, Canada.
