The Student Court Justices are, left to right, Dick Blaine, Barbara Butcher, Barbara Lozabnick, Dick Chamberlain, Chief Justice, Trubee Campbell, and Tony Nast. Absent members are Al Ryskind, Mary Tobin, Evie Hill, Dave Kelton, and Don Crowell. Dick Chamberlain Chief Justice STUDE T CUURT Guilty or not guilty, that is the question. The Dogpatch court is in session, and chief iudge, Dick Chamberlain, looks grimly at the accused who shakingly awaits the verdict. Mr. Skonk lthe accusedl does not realize, however, that iustice reigns supreme in this student court, and he cringes as an associate iudge, Don Crowell, interrupts to explain that the purpose of the session is to lessen, if possible, penalties for offenses committed. Mr. Skonk feels better as the other iustices smile, and Barbara Butcher tells him that they usually meet once every three weeks on Thursday. He seems more at home when Bobbie Lozabnick tells him how much better it is for students to be iudged by stu- dents and not by the faculty. Because of the similarity in age between the iudges and the defendants, the problems at hand are understood more thoroughly, and less resistance is given to advice offered by students. Getting interested, Mr. Skonk asks what some of the offenses sent to Student Court are. Tony Nast tells him that the most common cases are smoking, cutting classes, and conduct unbecoming a Norman. Our central figure stops trembling and asks if any faculty members take part in decisions. Mary Tobin ex- plains that the Dean of Boys' and the Girls' Adviser sit in on cases but never offer opinions unless they are needed for a point of information. Dick Blaine adds that all iustices are appointed by the student body president. Mary Tobin explains that a person is rarely sent to court unless he is proved ot be involved in the crime in some way. After he is caught in the act of the crime, the offender is sent to the Dean of Boys' or the Girls' Adviser. He is then sent to court. lf he desires, the student may plead his own case and relate all circumstances and incidents involved in the case. Mr. Skonk, I am sorry to say, is found guilty, but he leaves the court with a great deal on his mind and a desire to be a better Norman in the future. He realizes the efficiency of the court and knows the valu- able experience being gained by its justices. 22
