SANTA LUCIA 0 ATASCADERO STUDENT BODY GOVERNMENT Beginning the school year of 'thirty-five and 'thirty-six, there were two distinct changes made in the student body government. In other years the student body dues were seventy-five cents, and with them the students got free admission to all the games and were entitled to all student body privileges. This year, however, the student body dues were raised to two dollars, which include all games, privileges, school paper, and an annual. This change has proved very beneficial to the students and saved them quite a sum of money through- out the year. Until the opening of the first semester this year, all the excuses for absences and tardinesses were handled and checked by the faculty, but following the change made in the government, the citizenship committee has complete charge of all the excusesg they check each student's excuses and act accordingly. The citizenship committee also has the power to give merits and demerits. This change, along with the others that have been made in recent years, carries out more strongly the idea of STUDENT GOVERNMENT. The executive council still has control of the merit and demerit system, and no changes have been made in that regard, except that there was a custodian appointed to check up on the merits and demerits passed by the council.
