THE STUDENT COUNCIL 0R two years the Student Council has been working under the School Com stitution, instituted in May of 1956. The Council eels that the Constitution is a good one; however, it has not had time to gain an influential position with the faculty. The Council passe;l several bills for the improvement of present School functions; all but one was rejected by the Faculty and the one bill that was approved took four months to get through the administra- tion. In November the Council passed a bill suggesting that Chapel Spotting be done by Senior Council members and Other reliable members of the Fifth Form. This bill was hnally approved by the Faculty in February. A bill, proposing that Student Body Cards be issued to Lawrentians t0 Tzuezzty-tulo get student rates wherever these rates are offered, was turned down by the Faculty. A bill asking that Fifth Formers be given the privilege of smoking in town during the hours that they are allowed in the Village, was also rejected. Such was the case throughout the year; because of the barriers of tradition and enable them to the administration, the Council was con fronted with a situation in which it was almost impossible to improve any of the school functions. Despite these barriers the Council proved its ability in a different field. When the students boycotted the Iigger Shop, the Council stood behind their demands and did an excellent job 01: mediating the whole affair tactfully and purposefully.
