Student Admissions Members of the Student Admissions Program are B.C. students who orient prospective freshman to the campus. With over 400 volunteers, a variety of opportuni- ties are available to prospective students. Campus tours are given daily and on Saturdays, as well as interviews. Prospective students also are given the opportunity to attend a class in session with a mem- ber of the committee. The program encourages an honest and friendly view of the college from B.C. students to interested high school students.

Student Management Consultants The Student Management Consultants of Boston College is a student run organization whose objective is to help small businesses while providing actual business experience to the student.

Association For Women in Management The Association for Women in Manage- ment is a pre-professional organization of female students whose purpose it is to encourage the maximum potential of its members. This association is unique be- cause it addresses the total growth of its members, not just their career path. A major concern of the group has been the future of its members in the professional world. During the 1980-81 academic year, AWM has sponsored various programs and activities which have contributed to both the knowledge and development of its members. Each activity has tried to focus on a particular theme. By presenting various speakers, AWM believes that students will gain from the day to day experience of women currently in the business world. Early in the year, AWM hosted an alumna speaker, Salli Moran, who provided great insight into the process of obtaining an entry level posi- tion in an organization. In second semes- ter, AWM held its Sixth Annual Seminar on Successful Women which presented female guest lecturers from prominent businesses. A reception following the pre- sentations allowed members to obtain in- depth information from the speakers. The AWM also worked on improving faculty relations this year. Several faculty dinners allowed students to casually in- teract and learn from their professors ' ex- periences. 1st row: M. Otto (Co-Pres.), E. DePaul (Co-Pres.) 2nd row: M. White (Treasurer), M.

Student Judicial Board The Student Judicial Board was founded two years ago by the Assistant Dean of Students, Dan Zalskis and the UGBC Students Rights Advisor. The idea behind the student judicial board is so that students have an opportunity to have their cases heard by someone other than an administrator; if they are found guilty they can see precisely how members of their peer group feel about what they ' ve done. Any matters that cannot be resolved between a student and the Dean of Students Office is sent before a board. The student has the option of choos- ing the Student Judicial Board or the Administrative Hearing Board. The SJB consists of 4 student chair- persons and 35 student members: only one chair- person and 5 board members hear each individual case. The SJB may not expell a student from the Univer- sity; such decisions are left up to the University Conduct Board; but it may impose restitution, fines, disciplinary probation, suspension of privileges, and temporary dismissal from housing. The deci- sions of the board are immune from reversal or alteration by any member of the Boston College community. 1st row: M.L. Vitelli, M. Pallone, K. Russell, P. Staiano, K. Stevens. C.

Shea Educational Policy Committee Tom Anzuoni, Tim Shea, Kevin Mulcahy, Joanne Caruso The E.P.C. has authority over all academic matters that fall within the College of Arts and Sciences. The overall concerns of the committee include the strengths and relevance of the curri- culum; interdepartemental relationships; the quality of instruc- tion. The seventeen members who make up the committee include: The Dean, the Associate Deans, the Director of the Honors Program, the Director of Gudiance, 5 faculty from each of three divisions (Humanities, Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences), and four student members. The four students are elected annually by a popular vote which is incorporated in the UGBC presidential election. Under the direction of the new Dean William Neenan, S.J., this years committee has been exceptionally productive. Its major accomplishments were the approval of two new A S majors: Computer Science and Classical Civilization, also the approval of an Irish Studies Program which constitutes Boston College ' s first own Junior year abroad program. 226
