Title
English: Seattle Business College group portrait, circa 1925
Description
English:

The Metropolitan Business College began in 1889 as a small private business school called the Seattle Business College. The school was started by Josephine Hall and her husband in Seattle's Boston building, where it remained until 1891. Initially, the Seattle Business College taught only shorthand and typing, expanding its curriculum to include Bookkeeping, Accounting, Business Law, English, and Mathematics after it was bought out by Acme Business College in 1894. Mrs. Hall sold her shares in the college to W. W. DeLong, who became the college president. The newly combined school was known as Seattle and Puget Sound College. In 1915, the College became the property of the Metropolitan Building Company, moved into the White-Henry-Stuart building, and changed its name to the Metropolitan Business College. This image shows a Seattle Business College group posing outdoors.
