The Commission was instrumental in obtaining contributions from other campus organizations for this purpose. The most successful dance spon- sored by the Commission was the Thanksgiving dance held in the Field House. Faculty members were especially invited to attend the Turkey Trot and mingle with the students. The Commission sponsored several dances throughout the year for the general student body, admission being by registration card only.

EARL JENNINGS, President of the Student Commission The Siudeni Commission With its chief purpose one of serving the student body as a whole and of offering a definite incentive for self-expression among the stu- dents, the Student Commission has gradually gained prestige and power until it now ranks as the most influential group on the campus. The members of the Commission are elected from among the student body at a general election. This year the Commission set out in the beginning to strengthen the power of the campus court. No drastic rules were enforced, but the group did put teeth in the rules which were already on the statute books. Gerald Stevens was appointed judge of the court with Orville Goplen and Maine Shafer as his clerks. Not only were many student violators of campus traffic laws brought before the bar of campus justice, but several faculty members as well. Formerly first offenders were not fined, but the Commission felt that there had been sufficient publicity accorded the rulings to enable all to know the rules. Therefore the judge at the second term decided to fine all first offenders accordingly. Homecoming was again under the jurisdiction of the student govern- ing body. A custom begun last year of inviting the University of North Dakota Student Commission president and Homecoming queen to the festivities at this institution was again followed and later our represen- tatives, Earl Jennings and Virginia Landbloom, journeyed to Grand Forks on a return visit. ,ggi 1936 BISON gag., 124.-.
