Book excerpt: Excerpt from Business Education and Accountancy This volume has been prepared not alone as a memorial to Mr. Haskins. Better warrant is found in the fact that it represents the most advanced thought of those not actively engaged in the teach ing profession on the subject of business training and on the possibility of raising high professional standards in what may be called business special ties. And if we are to draw conclusions from his published expressions, we find, clearly recognized, at least three branches of professional serviee in business which have no adequate educational sup port. The first of these is Accountancy - already recognized by the laws of five American States. The second business profession indicated is Finance - including banking, insurance, and other well established and clearly defined financial specialties. The third is Business Administration. As pointed out by Mr. Haskins, education has not kept pace with the demands of the time. In many instances scientific inquiry is wholly wanting and professional education has no literary basis of which to avail itself.
