BUSINESS 11-- 12 DEPARTMENT -- The study mentioned that we do not have classes in Data Processing, Marketing, and Office Practice; this is false beacuse we have classes in Computer Science and Data Processing, plus an Office Practice Class with Marketing being covered in our Distributive Education Program. Additional classes we teach which are not offered at Box Elder are: Accounting n, Filing, and a very successful Intermediate Type class. It is also indicated that all of our Vocational Classes are on a full year basis. This is not true. Business Education is surely vocational and we teach twelve business offerings on a semester basis. The total is 15 -variety. The study also states that there would be sixteen conflicts that would develop through the transfer of students. We fail to recognize any.

The isn't an easy statement to make, weekly newspaper breaks this considering I know where I get down to a more personal basis. my beans from. All the killings It functions as a local oracle. Does the news down? Sometimes that happen each daytend to disturb me. The traffic accidents, and the dock strikes become redundant. But every now and then a story of human compassion comes to the top of the brine of human suffering. It is there only for a brief moment then it is gone. It is for this brief span of time and for this bit of enlightenment that we trudge through the vast amounts of reading and viewing and listening to keep informed. You see it is our right and perhaps even our duty to stay informed. This is a responsibility we all face. Basically we study the news so that when we go to work the boys won't think us ignorant when we gab. The average American is literally drowned in a sea of information each day. He tries to interrupt what his eyes see and his ears hear but it often gets difficult This is where your newspaper comes to your aid. The It provides all the inform? tion on a personal basis. It informs you of what is happening right in your backyard. What jnany people don't realize is that it is through weekly newspapers that the people's wants and needs of a small area are heard. If we don't protect the rights of the newsmen to report the news, to keep their sources confidential, to question the government, to seek reform, and to be the conscience of the community, then our country and the right of free speech will go to the dogs.
