The political rallies of the Integrity and All-College parties stressed the importance of democratic student govern- ment. Election results gave the Integrity Party control of 17 of 22 positions. The Integrity candidates captured 13 of 18 places on the Student Council and all three in Board of Student Publications. Gerry Day, Integrity candidate, was elected president of the Student Governing Association, and as student body president he is an ex officio member of the Stu- dent Council. The Student Council is composed of rep- resentatives elected by the student body. Membership is based on the enrollment and then a|)portioned to each school. Chairman of the Student Council was Mark Drake. Other officers were Bill Johnson, vice-chairman; Don Hunt, treasurer, and Beverly Sargent, correspond- ing secretary.
