Alpha Theta Mu Alpha Theta Mu, the women's senior honor- ary society, was formed in the spring of l944. At a special tapping ceremony, a part of the May Pageant, the honorary members, having been selected from the graduating class, were presented to the school. They in turn intro- duced the charter members, who had been chosen from the Junior Class. The purpose of this honorary society is to stimulate cooperation between campus organ- izations, to promote a feeling of service and comradeship among the women of the cam- pus, to establish high scholarship, to recog- nize and encourage leadership, and to initiate and develop a finer type of college woman. The object of this organization is service, scholarship, and leadership. Its members are selected from the incoming senior class on the basis of service, a scholarship with an aver- age of at least C-l-, and the minimum of fifty points for leadership. As its project for the year Alpha Theta Mu sponsored teas in the Mary Anderson Pew Dormitory for the purpose of fostering closer relationship among the girls of the dormitory and town and the faculty. Alpha Theta Mu is the first step toward Mortar Board on the Grove City College cam- pus. OFFICERS President ............ Lois Shaffer Secretary ....... Marjorie McDowell Treasurer .....

Colonial House Council l OFFICERS President ....., ,.,. L ouise Buchanan Treasurer . . . . . .Miriam Spoehr Vice President . . . .... Avonell Kinder Fire Warden ,......... .... L ois Landon Secretary .... . . .Blanche Kurtz Freshman Representative . . .... Joan Young The Colonial House Council is the Govern- ing body of Colonial Dormitory. The election of the present House Council members was held shortly after school began last year, Its chief duty is to make the dormitory life more comfortable and pleasant for the girls living there. Through the House Council arrangements are made for the delivery of magazines and newspapers, and the sponsoring of social ac- tivities. A less pleasant duty is that of enforc- ing the rules regarding quiet hours. p The Council held the annual Halloween Party, which included a ghost walk, and was attended by girls unrecognized in their orig- inal and weird costumes. Christmas time brought with it a Sunday morning breakfast and carol singing for both town and Colonial girls. The waiters trimmed our Christmas tree, gave us gifts, and sponsored a program after our Christmas dinner. We entertained Presi- dent and Mrs. Ketler, and Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Bridges at Christmas dinner. We had our usual feeds, musical programs, and open houses. The cooperation shown by all the girls of the house has been very much appreciated by the Council members. We only hope that our successors have another such pleasant year as we had. Page Forty-aight

judicial Board OFFICERS: President, Nancy Sipe Secreta ry, Avonell Kinder MEMBERS: Peg Marshall Louise Brown Louise Buchanan Jane Daryman Martha Vogan The Judicial Board, created by the Women's Govern- ing Board, is growing in importance on the campus. lt is completing more efficiently the job for which it was established, to serve as a mediation board on all judicial matters between the faculty and women of the college. The members of the board are as follows: President and Vice President of the Mary Anderson Pew House Council, President and Vice President of the Colonial House Council, a representative-at-large elected by all the women of the College, and as a new addition this year, the President and Vice President of the Ketler Dormitory. This year the Judicial Board has put some new rulings under a trial period. lt has set a definite amount of time which the girls may be late before they are to appear be- fore the board. Although these rules are being used, each case is given individual consideration. Every detail is carefully considered before granting an extra permis- sion requested. The Judicial Board has a great responsibility to both the women of the college and to the faculty. Through cooperation and the sharing of responsibility, it has shown that it can function successfully. Page Furry-.rz 1,
