HOW
IT
FIGURES:
Interesting statistics, right?
Look at them one way, and
you get 96. Look at them
another way . . . long enough
...and what you’re likely to
get is married. From that point
on, you multiply. So do your
responsibilities.
It pays to plan for responsi
bilities. You can do this now
by investing in a life insurance
program that can provide the
foundation for a sound finan
cial structure. The earlier you
start, the less it costs, and the
more security you’ll have a
chance to build.
Stop by our office today. Or
give us a call, and let’s talk
about subtracting something
from your life: financial worry.

Business Administration Still
Nursing Baby Ph. D. Program
Administrators in the College
of Business Administration are
still nursing their infant doctor
of philosophy degree program—
and they want it that way.
Not quite a year old, the Ph.D.
in business will receive tender
care so its graduates will have
a head start when they earn the
name “doctor.”
Dr. John E. Pearson, dean of
the college, said many universities
make the mistake of rushing stu
dents into the first two years of
a doctoral program only to find
out later they don’t have a staff
large enough or qualified to guide
the student when it becomes time
to do research.
“We have been selective, not
because of particular backgrounds
of students, but because we have
the firm belief the most impor
tant part of training is teaching
him to do research which will
truly advance the art of this pro
fession,” Dr. Pearson explains.
He described A&M’s degree
program as one of the most flex
ible in the nation. The first stu
dent accepted, Douglas Sarbach,
received a bachelor’s degree in
architecture from Ohio State and
a master’s in architecture from
Columbia, he noted.
The college currently has 12
doctoral students—four full-time,
six part-time and two are teach
ing at Sam Houston State and
taking courses in the summer
only.
The six part-time students are
A&M faculty-staff members.
Plans call for the admittance
of five students per year to the
three-year program, for a total
enrollment of 15.
The College of Business was
set up in 1967 and the Ph.D. pro
gram was approved in October,
1968. Five students were enrolled
in the spring semester.
Despite no publicity on the de
gree program, Dr. Pearson re
ported it has spread from mouth-
to-mouth and inquiries have come
from throughout the nation.
It will soon be published in
Peterson’s Guide, a reference
book on university degree pro
grams.
Currently enrolled are A&M
assistant professors Billy J.
Adams, Teddy L. Coe and Carlton
D. Stolle, and instructors William
C. Atkinson, James W. Camprise,
Wayne Cook Hansen and Harry
E. Zenner.
Sam Houston instructors in
clude George A. Elliott and Thom
as W. Lawler. Graduate assist
ants and fellowship students in
clude Honnudike V. B. Rao, Ken
neth B. Reinhardt and Sarbach.
