The extension of student government to cover student control of assemblies, halls, and grounds was the outstanding step in progress taken by the officers and students of Bonita this year. The new system has been remarkably suc- cessful for the short time it has been effective. It was brought about as the result of much discussion and canvassing of student opinion. Approximately ten monitors were elected in each class, who formed the Bearcat Council. This plan and the constitutional amendment, were developed by the American Problems classes. Two student forums were presented during the home room period that were of special importance. The first, held on Wednesday, Ianuary l8, discussed the question- What are you getting out of school? Reverend Dorsey of San Dimas was guest chairman for the discussion, and panel members were Crawford Brubaker, Guy Goodwin, Bette White, Howard Dodge, and Rosemary Dominguez, who presented the thought-provoking conclusions. The second, which centered about Tolerance, was led by Reverend Louis Velasco of La Verne. Ruth Werkman, Earl O'Brien, Milford Good, and Tyrus Harmsen par- ticipated, and Ioe Comacho acted as student chairman for the forum. The defi- nition of tolerance which was finally evolved was Tolerance is the recognition of rights, of private respect for the judgment of others, even though you do not believe in these ideas yourself.
