The next highest executives are Father Sylvester Schmitz, O.S.B., dean of college, and Father Richard Burns, O.S.B., dean of residence. The dean of college, in conference with the faculty, determines scholastic policies, and the latter, together with tl1e board of discipline, determines student placement and conduct upon the campus. The students through the Student Council have some part in college administration. With the active and capable leadership of President Jerry P. O'Don- nell, the present Student Council has completed one of its most successful years. The administrative duties of the Council rest in the hands of the Diet, which is composed of the elected representatives of the students as a Whole, the chairman of the hall committees, and the dean of residence, and is a truly representative body having charge of all student activities. The greatest single achievement of the present Stu- dent Council has been the fostering of regular student- faculty assemblies. Besides being a source of enter- tainment and education, this activity sponsors a better relationship between faculty and students. The members of the Diet compose the standing committee of the Student Council and as such appoint all minor committees and have charge of all Student Council activities. The present Diet members are jerry O'Donnell, William Dolan, james Ilelmert, john Thimes, and Father Richard Burns. The main activities sponsored by the Diet and Stu- dent Council are The Ranzblcr, The Rczecn Jwtzgacine, the annual Amateur Night, Athletic Day, and various other activities of the same nature. The principal standing committees of the Student Council are the Hall Committee and the Social Committee. 7
