 • The Student Senate has enacted many measures to establish definite policies in many areas of student activity. Probably one of its main accomplishments has been the reorganization of the new Memorial Union into the governing scope of Associated Students. Another major project of the Senate is the formulation of the Associated Students financial budget. The Senate is composed of 30 students representing chiefly the classes and major student councils. • Arizona State had a big year activities wise with the best homecoming ever, the success of Parent's Day and of course, the grand opening of the Memorial Union Building. The Christmas Sing, a traditional event on campus, was well attended with Tommy Pyle leading the students in singing. Ralph Materie and his Orchestra played for the opening of the Memorial Union in February. In the Spring ihe All-School picnic is sponsored by A.M.S. and is a traditional event. Along with the calendar of Spring activities comes the climax of the year with the Coronation Ball and the crowning of the Campus King and Queen.

This committee, composed of students who have been appointed to it because of their service and in- terest in ASC, is entirely in charge of social events which take place for the student body here on campus. Although active in providing a well rounded social calendar for stu- dents with after game dances, num- erous teas and receptions, and free movies, they are also in charge of big extravaganzas like the Corona- tion Ball n the Spring where the campus king and queen are crowned. This year, with the opening of the new student union, the committee had its hands full planning the activi- ties for the opening week plus the weeks oftor. • The Executive Council is an eleven mem- ber group composed of the ASASC officers, AMS and AWS presidents, and five board chairman.
