STUDENT COUNCIL OVERSEE WORK The job of student council is one of those many jobs that is overlooked until something goes wrong. The student council is responsible for closing that generation gap between faculty, administration, and the school board. This isn't an easy task. The 1986-87 student council was manned by President Dan Lusk. Vice-President Jackie Neuharth. Se- cetary Treasurer Darrel Hinkle. Re- presenting the freshman were Deb- bie Dittman and Jeff Peterson; soph- omores. Marla Lusk and Gene Luze: juniors. Jodi McDonnell and Lori Newton: seniors Tom Durfee and Darin Larson. The student council is responsible for the planning and carrying out of Homecoming. Some of the activities included a slave sale of freshman, a dance Friday night, and different ac- tivities for each day. Other responsibilities included su- pervising the nomination and elec- tion of the class offficers and the cheerleaders and taking any propos- als made by the student body to the school board for consideration. Be- cause of hot weather the student council proposed a new dress code, so shorts would be allowed. The board said no to shorts but yes to mini skirts. The members of the student council were chosen by their classmates, with the officers chosen by the entire student body. They are elected in the spring and announced at Awards Night. Freshman representatives are elected in the fall. ABOVE RIGHI The three brave leaders who lower over the student body are Secretary Treasurer Darrel Hinkle. Vice-president Jack ie Neuharth. and President Dan Lusk. BELOW: Member of the 1986 87 Student Council are SITTING: Darrel Hinkle and Gene Luze. FIRST ROW: Tom Durfee. Jackie Neu- harlh.
