DRDINATOR AND EXECUTIVE COUNCIL The Executive Council is composed of the Studentbody President and four Vice Presidents, elected to serve in the areas of culture, student relations, social activities, and finance. This Executive Branch of the Studentbody meets weekly to consider studentbody policy and make decisions concerning all studentbody activities. With the theme Friendships Unlimited, the Council has sought to improve inter-school relations, and has been host to schools from throughout the west, besides visiting many schools. Their main goal has been to provide an atmosphere favorable to aca- demic, cultural, social and spiritual growth for each student through participation in various activities, and to promote good relationships and better understanding between the University Ad- ministration and Associated Students of Brigham Young Univer- sity.
