Division of Student Activities THE division of student activities is one of the four major divisions of the college and is the only official department dealing exclusively with the general business of the student body. It includes the administration of all activities of the students where continuity from year to year is a factor and especially where funds or fees are collected by the college in behalf of the student organization. It comprehends the business, but not the technical, administration of athletics, the social activities, the religious life, and the various publications of the student body. This office was formerly administered by numerous faculty chairmen, but due to the increased work the Board of Directors deemed it advisable to bring the many activities of the students together under one department. Hence the organization of the division of Student Activities co-ordinate with the other three divisions: Extension, Experiment Station and Instruction. This is the first year the Division, as such, has operated, and in time it is hoped to make it the general clearing house for the student organizations and activities of all kinds.
