It is composed of five Seniors, two Juniors, with Miss Alexander as Faculty Adviser, President of Student Government Woody Hewitt presiding, and Secretary of Student Government Vici DeVoe acting as Secretary. The Judy Board is designed as a corrective, not a punitive body; and its aim is to render impartial justice to offenders. Under the Judy Board ' s supervision are the hall boards which handle minor cases. On each of these boards are the house president, four members elected from the hall, and one Judicial Board member. Judy Board records and reviews all hall board cases and can act as a court of appeals for hall board sentences. Judy Board considers all cases individually, and always tries to make the student understand why and how its de- cision was reached.
