THE STUDENT COUNCIL With Europe convulsed by the struggle between overbearing dictatorship and popular democracy, much attention is being given to the preservation of democracy here in our own country. One way in which the principles of self-government can be instilled into the minds of young Americans is through student government in the schools.. The Student Council at the seminary is a representative group of girls elected by the entire student body. Not only does it try to support the administration of the school in every possible respect, but it also attempts to carry out the idea of the honor system, which has been instituted here within the last few years and has proved very successful. Under this policy, the necessity of faculty control and the policing of girls is eliminated because each girl is put on her honor to do only that which is right and for the best interests of the school. This year the officers of the organization have been Janet McCoy. President; Betty Ann Love. Vice- President; Bonnie Jean Chitty, Secretary -Treasurer. Through the bi-monthly meetings with Miss Fitch and Mrs. Powell, and through student forums, every girl has a voice in the student government. Teach- ing American youth in this way to cherish the blessings of self-government is the best insurance which any democracy could have against the oppression of foreign ' isms.
