More than 190 requests from banks, manufacturing concerns, and other corporations have been received by the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration for the 160 men graduating from the School in the spring. If requests for the services of these men continue to come in at this rate, the total before the end of the college year will be about 500.
This will be an increase over the number of requests last year, when, in June, there were 319 requests for the 174 men finishing the School at that time.
The requests this year to date, and the estimate of 500 by the end of the year, do not include the requests from other universities for graduates of the Harvard Business School to serve on their own teaching staffs. Last year 59 such requests were received.
Many of these requests were from the 106 universities to which the Harvard Business School supplies copies of problems and cases used in its method of teaching business principles. This is the "Case System", which is similar to the method of instruction now almost universally used in the teaching of law.
