A tully mature college student must develop interests in other areas of lite than sports or academics. The Cultural Committee seeks to promote and develop an aware- ness of and interest in the contemporary world ot the student. The Committee's Chair- man is appointed by the Student Senate and its members are elected from each class. The QUISLEN, a daily news bulletin which is placed on all the dining hall tables at the evening meal, was instituted by this Committee. Last tall, an art show was held by this very active Committee. During the annual Crum Lectureship, the refreshments which provided a backdrop tor an informal period ot discussion with the speaker, were the work of the Cultural Committee. In addition to sponsoring the Annual College Bowl, the Committee has instituted the first Inter-collegiate College Bowl here at Barr- ington which was held last winter. 96

One needs such diversions lest he become deficient in such a vital part of his personality-the art of relaxation and occasional detachment from the responsibilities of academic studies. The Chairman of this Committee is appointed by the Student Senate. The Committee consists of two representatives elected from each of the four classes. Two of the ma- ior achievements of the Social Committee this year were the Student Association Ban- quet and the fourth annual Valentine Coronation. 95

The Barringtonian is a student newspaper ot opinion and information. Except for their faculty advisor, complete control ot the paper is in the hands of students, the maiority ot whom volunteer their time and their services to this task. Within its pages are contained complete coverage of every aspect ot student lite. There is a section for student's comments. The Barringtonian's purpose is to deepen the insights and broad- en the perspectives ot its readers through opinion as well as to increase knowledge through reliable news coverage. A healthy interest in all events of the school is maintained by the good work of a student paper. It is imperative that those responsible be dedicated to the positions which they hold because of the impact that they potentially have on the student body. This year's staff should be commended for the work which they have done. 97
