Work Committee The work committee assumes the responsibility for managing the entire operation of our work program, including the handing out work fines and compiling work grades. The work committee had the additional problem this year of assigning one hundred more peo- ple to jobs without an increase in work facilities. Accordingly the work committee cut the amount of work time per person to thirteen hours, but it was soon determined that thirteen hours a week per stu- dent was not enough work time to perform the maxi- mum number of chores. During the second semester work hours were increased to fifteen per week, the same time allotted to each student during the 1967- 1968 academic year. This solved the biggest problem of our beleaguered and besieged work committee. Each spring candidates for the work committee are selected from student, faculty and administration nominations. A week-long work school culminates in a written exam after which each work committee member selects three students for tryout positions. Each of the three students chosen for a particular position is given a week in which to assume respon- sibility for that department. Following three try-out weeks, the retiring work committee members select the new committee. The 1968-69 men’s and women’s work managers were Chuck Flagg and Linda Stanley. They were responsible for assigning work schedules and serving on the Administrative Committee to the College. Ken Walker, as bookstore head, was responsible for both the bookstore and mailroom, Ken and the bookstore had a little trouble at the beginning of the fall semester when books needed for some classes did not arrive until well after classes started. However, after this small upset both the bookstore and mail- room ran smoothly. Assisting Ken were Paul Self and Donna Muschewsk e. Responsible for assigning desk workers and secre- taries to the faculty and administration was Pat Fried- line. Desk workers work on a rotation basis and secre- taries’ hours correspond only to the need of the faculty members. Assisting Pat in her duties were Carol Wil- liams, Kathy Soda, and Barbara Swanson. Val Lampe and her assistants Don Lampe, Bonnie Austin, Pat Hewing, Vicki Carlson, Sandy Grider, and John Cokinos coped with the problem of serving a student body much too large for the dining hall. Family style meals were done away with altogether in favor of the progressive family style. There was only one dress-up meal a week, and there were only ’
