University of North Carolim Noppen, Jr., Thomas Sully, Jr., Horace Stacy, Larry Botto, Ted Leone greater university counci Three years ago students from State, Carolina, and Woman ' s College, recognizing the need for greater unity among the three parts of the University, established the Greater Uni- versity Student Council. Their aim was to make the academic and social functions on each campus available to the students from the other two schools and thus strengthen the bond among the students of the three divisions. This year the council elected Henry Odum of State Col- lege as President. Other officers were Nancy Holder of W. C, Vice-President; Charles LeGrande of State, Secretary; an I Tom Sully of Carolina, Treasurer. Jaylee Montague of W. C. was chairman of the projects committee. Their first project of the year was Greater Universit) I )ay in Chapel Hill. Council members gave a reception for Presi- dent Gordon Gray and represented the student bodies as hosts and hostesses at the inauguration. They adopted a plan by which exchange lectures from the three faculties could be called to speak on either of the three campuses. An active and widespread publicity campaign was planned so that students of the University would be made aware of plays, glee club concerts, and social functions occurring at all the schools. They planned for the exchange of programs among groups of similar interests. These activities are important steps forward toward the goal of greater unity. We are proud of the interest taken by the students in this attempt to work out the conflicting needs and common problems of the three schools that form the Greater University.

judicial board Each Monday night that the members of Judicial Board gather around the horseshoe table in the Alumnae House is an additional proof that great responsibility has been wisely placed in the hands on the students on the Woman ' s College campus. This organization demonstrates that we are capable of handling our own problems with open minds and firm understanding. Members of Judy Board deal with each case as an individual one and use their combined judgment in an effort to be fair and just. Theirs is a responsibility not to be taken lightly, and the knowledge of this fact is an integral part of their code. To the ones who must face the horseshoe table, Judy Board meeting may be a time of dread. But even these few come away with a new respect for a system under which a student ' s mistakes are judged and punished by the group most likely to understand and sympathize, a group of her fellow students. The organization has gained respect by adhering strictly to their rule that all information revealed is to be kept in strictest confidence. Final jurisdiction in all cases, except those involving suspension and expulsion, rests with Judy Board. This responsibility is upheld, and all matters are dealt with in a manner befitting an organization whose byword is de- mocracy.
