President Hawkins crowns June Amoss, Reigning May during May Weekend Festivities. New Busin Planned F by DONALD M. EMBINDER While one out of every five undergraduate men in college to day is majoring in business administration, independent re-ports by the Ford Foundation and the Carnegie Foundation, agree in their basic conclusions that the undergraduate business programs have been typified by: low academic standards, a pro-liferation of specialized voca-tional courses, and goals and ob-jectives not well conceived to develop the managerial capabili-ties of the students. The Baltimore metropoli-tan area has a strong and rapidly growing industrial community.

It seems reasonable to as-sume, then, that a well founded program of business adminis-tration at Towson would satisfy a critical need of the local busi-ness community, and attract signigicant numbers of highly qualified high school graduates, who must now leave the Balti-more area in order to satisfy their academic objectives. Commensurate with the Governor's mandate to de-velop the arts and sciences program at the State Col-leges, this program has been designed to emphasize the students intellectual involve-ment with the liberal arts curriculum. The ""guts"" of this program in business ad-ministration is, as you will see in the organization of curriculum statement, foun-ded in an interdisciplinary emphasis on the behavioral and social sciences, and sup-plemented by twenty-four (Continued on Page 9) Successful May Weekend Closes With Highwaymen The social calendar at Tow-son State College was completed with May Weekend.

After the Queen's luncheon held in the College Centre, Brooks welcomed the aud-ience and introduced the May Court. The Queen, Jane Amoss, is from Fallston, Maryland (Har-ford County) and is now major-ing in elementary education. Her Maid of Honor, Pam Duncan, comes from Washington, D.C., and is a mathematics major. Other members of the court are Kathi Austin, from Timo-nium, a mathematics major; Carol Eichler, from Reisters-twon, a kindergarten-primary major; Jackie Ellis, from Balti-more, an elementary education major.

Em-binder, Assistant to the Presi-dent of Towson and Kenneth J. Hallam, Director of Instruction-al Research and Evaluation at Towson State. The three-fold purpose of the conference, which is one of a series being sponsored by the Office of Education, is to first, identify and explore innovations in curriculum and instruction which will lead to meaningful and more effective programs for un-dergraduates in evolving colleges; second, to investi-gate ways in which partici-pating colleges can enploy such innovations; and third, to identify and develop in-novations which would be developed into meritorious research proposals. During the course of the con-ference five papers will be de-livered, each of which will serve as a stimulant and source ma-terial for ensuing workshops: ""Organizing General Education at Stanford University; ""Utiliz-ing Modern Instructional Mi-dia"" by Fred F.
