University Daily Kansan Presents—
People Are Her Interest Business Is Her Major
"Business school isn't a snap, especially when you're the only girl in the class, but it does afford a liberal education."
That's the optimistic attitude Mary Hercules, 22-year-old business senior from Carbondale, takes toward her predicament of being one of the few women in the predominantly male School of Business.
Miss Mary Hercules
, "Here's" mother wanted her to major in English, but a "snap" course to fill out her program turned out to be accounting and made her decide on business as a career.
Herc's immediate ambition, almost too immediate, she laughed, is to be a personnel manager.
"I've always been interested in people and I've wanted to do something in the field of human relations," she explained. "Management is finally learning that workers aren't machines. So, a brand new field is opening up for us."
Although she will be graduated in June, Here doesn't know where she will start work. She would like a job in City, Mo., Oklahoma or New Mexico.
"When I'm graduated" she said with a sparkle in her eyes. "I'm going to do everything I've missed out on in college." Perhaps this would include these secret desires to visit Hawaii and to live in a penthouse, who knows?
Dreams aren't her only accomplishments, however. An honor student, Herc has held a Miller hall residence scholarship since her freshman year.
Short, blonde Here has found herself in many other campus positions during her stay at the University. Since she was a cheerleader in high school, she has been interested in Jay Jane and is now
secretary of that organization. She belongs to Phi Chi Theta, business women's professional sorority, the Business School association, and the senior announcements committee. Since her first year at Miller, she has been a member of the hall's social committee.
Collecting postcard-size reproductions of great works of art is her "time-consuming" hobby, and she now has three scrapbooks filled with them. She said once she began collecting dolls from foreign countries, but that hobby "went the way of all good hobbies."
Although Herc hasn't any plans for marriage yet, she thanks K.U. for contributing to preparing her for a housewife's career. She learned how to cook by planning and preparing food at Miller.
"I came equipped with a cook book and a strong stomach," she confided. Then, as an afterthough, she added, "I hope the other girls did, too!"
