H Concerning the Council H LTHOUTII the Council began its existence only a little more than a year ago, it has matle itself strongly felt in the life of the Institute. All students of Bradley know what the Council is. '- - lint for the information of any others u ho may be privileged to 8 8 read these pages, we may say that the Council is a botly in 8 Q which representatives of the faculty antl of the students meet on a common and equal footing to consider matters of mutual in- terest. livery part of the school has a representation here, and any question which interests the student botly may be introduced by any member for discussion. Expression of opinion on the part of stutlent antl faculty members is absolutely free. The Council is a Bradley institution. W'e tlo not know of one in any other school, though many efforts are being made elsewhere to meet the same entls. The itleas upon which it is based and its formal constitution were developed by a committee of the faculty appointed almost exactly one year ago. There has always been at Bradley the most hearty relations of friendli- ness between the faculty and students. XVe have never seen a school where this spirit was so pleasantly conspicuous. The Council is both an evidence of this state of things antl a help toward its continuance. Some of the best results of the Council's work are difficult to set down effectively in words. They lie along the line of a better understanding of their respective points of view between both faculty antl students. Many dis- cussions which have not resulted in formal action have been most helpful along this line. Many questions have been referred to the Council by the faculty for advice in final decision. Perhaps the work for which the Council is best known is the establishment of THE TEeH and the Annual upon the present basis. The plans upon which they are now being managed were formed by the Council, and the editor-in-chief and business manager in each case were appointed by it. lt was at the request of the Council that the Trustees changed the form of the tleclamation prize to a scholarship. The Council is also to be thanked for the organization of the Literary Society, and for the general arrangement of social events throughout the year. The Council for the year 1900-1901 has been constituted as follows: For the faculty, Director Sisson, Deans Bartlett, Burgess, antl Wyckoff, for the college, XValter Fuller, Adelia Swanson, for the higher academy, Victor VVest, XV. Koch, Julia Bourland, Miriam Szoldg for the lower academy, F. Neef, XV. S. Hough, Grace Kellogg, Hazel Sholl.
