STUDENT COUNCIL A Motion in the Making With the pounding of a gavel, the first student council meeting was called to order by President Hod Barnes. Student Council, made up of student body officers, class and club presidents, standing committee chairmen, and home room representatives, promoted several new projects and ideas. A great amount of turmoil was produced during the hot discussions. A new activity schedule for better and increased participation in clubs was developed. The Bull- dog Constitution was revised several times. New changes included the amendment of co-treasurers, the abolishment of the Buzz Book committee, and the elimination of chap- lain who was replaced by sergeant-at-arms. In the begin- ning of the year, the student body officers and several other students attended the Region VI conference in Eugene. A workshop was sponsored for all AUHS students interested in learning parliamentary procedures. This year all student council meetings were held during class time every two weeks. In previous years, the meetings were held during lunch periods as well as class time; but due to the split-lunch system, this was impossible. Night meet- ings were proposed, but representatives failed to attend. Jerry Ashby rose to a point of inquiry. Student council held an evening workshop to combine ideas for student government. 19
