Both Junior and Senior VVeeks, the high- lights of the University social year, are under the direc- tion of the Council, as are all other activities and func- tions which come under the heading all-University. The Council meets with the President at his office some half-dozen times during the college year. Although many topics of a diversified nature are discussed at these meetings, the most important is how to integrate and unite the diilerent Departments of the University into a feeling of oneness. Despite the efforts of the students and faculty to eradicate it, departrnentalism is rather stronger at Bos- ton University than it should be. The Boston University News has done much and has potentialities of doing much more to foster the all-University spirit that Presi- dent Marsh would like to see. It is hoped that when all the Departments are located on the new Charles River campus, all narrow provincialisms will disappear. OFFICERS P-resident . .

Pre- cedent breaking experiments on format and news treat- ment were fea.tured, in harmony with tl1e modern trend for greater efliciency. Newsgist was the word coined to describe the new dress which the News adopted for five successive issues. In the three wide columns of 10 point type the news of the week was segregated under the headings of All- University, Departmental, and Sports. With this new composition, the News attempted to print the interesting and essential items in a sprightly and inter- esting manner. Along with the trenchant paragraphs were placed newsworthy pictures of the week to supple- ment the original, digested writing style. However, in the limited editorial space offered by an eight page tabloid-size newspaper, the News found it difficult to cover all events of the University. As the big news stories broke week after week, the eight pages were taxed more than ever. To regain the space lost in pre- senting Newsgist it was necessary to return to tl1e original 24-year-old format. More editorial space will be needed in the future to offer complete coverage of the University. Boston University could use a semi- weekly college newspaper to greater advantage, for even much smaller institutions support such publications. For the first time in its history, the News initiated a 187 policy of staff selection which aims to serve the Univer- sity more efiiciently. By opening all editorial positions to students from the eleven Departments, the News covers all activities witl1 a greater degree of accuracy and thoroughness. Reporters and editors of the 1939--L0 News worked for the first time in metropolitan city-room atmosphere. New quarters were taken when the Charles Hayden Nfemorial was opened for occupancy. Not only does the News act as a medium for the dis- tribution of news, but also as a laboratory for practical newspaper experience. The majority of student editors hope to enter professional journalism on being grad- uated from the University. YVriting, editing, and as- sembling the paper each week gives them first hand knowledge of the problems of a newspaper. Every week more than 10,000 copies of the News are distributed to every University student and to all parts of the globe. For students it serves as a mirror of present- day collegiate life, and for many alumni in foreign lands the News serves as the only college tie after graduation. Recognized as one of the best college newspapers in the world, the News offers a progressive record of achievement and service. For almost a quarter of a cen- tury it has been faithfully serving the interests of the student body, faculty and administration, building good will in the University and creating greater integra- tion among the Departments of the University. l
