Two hundred and two members of the graduating class intend to take positions in the ranks of business, while the legal profession, next in line, will claim 116. Medicine and teaching with 89 and 75 respectively rank third and fourth. A large part of the class, numbering 171, has not as yet decided on a definite occupation.
