S. G. A. To Train for Adult Life . . . P1 1 STUDENT BOARD Carol Haissig, Richard Kiphart, James Miller, Thomas Zizic IPresidentJ, Theodore Olsen, Diane Polzin, John Schmuhl This year Bay View's Student Government Association and the Honor Committee estab- lished an honor system in the senior classes. As more students understand the responsibili- ties incumbent upon such a system, it is planned to extend it to other grade levels. Its primary aim is not the prevention of cheat- ing but the building of individual character. Stop! You're going up the down stairs was the new cry in '58. We mean, of course, the one-way traffic stairway plan, which was put into eftect at the beginning of the second semester to save time by avoiding congestion. Outstanding committees which have func- tioned this year include Central Study Hall, Building Control, Ring, Public Relations, and Dance, the last of which reached an all-time high in securing the attendance of over a thousand students for the Homecoming and Noel Nocturne dances, and over six hundred for Cupid's Capers. The iunior-senior semi- formal in May, Hawaiian Moonlight, was outstanding because of its tropical atmosphere and bold dashes of color. STUDENT COU RT E2 , I :K y.

Plan His Studies and Career Each semester this Bay View graduate-to-be had the opportunity to see films in auditorium meetings planned for various grade levels- such films as Benefits of Looking Ahead, Belonging to Groups, Aptitudes and Occu- pations, How to Keep a Job. From time to time he attended career meet- ings at which representatives of various occu- pations - generally experts in their fields - discussed job qualifications, preparation, and opportunities. lf his plan was to work immedi- ately after high school, he was given guidance as to where he might go to apply for a job and how to apply. If his interest was college, he took the Merit Scholarship Examination and later the College Board Examination to de- termine his fitness for college. He conferred with representatives of various schools and, if he qualified, applied for scholarships with the assistance of counselors, and he had an oppor- tunity to visit on the campus of the college in which he was interested, to get first hand information.

All in all, the first year of the second decade of student government, which be- gins with 1958, not only furthered already established good procedures, but added two all-school innovations, the senior class honor system and the one-way stairways, and hopefully looks forward to continuing broadening horizons.
