Babb Advocates Business Career

"I was shocked to find out how few Harvard students thought about business as a career," commented Jervis J. Babb MBA '24, former President of Lever Brothers Company. Babb delivered the final evening lecture of the 1959 Career Conferences last night at Leverett.

He attributed the apathy of Harvard toward business to a misunderstanding of what has taken place in business during the last generation. Concluding his remarks, Babb expressed the belief that "There is an opportunity in this world which only business can contribute: making possible for people to have a better economic way of life."
