STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council brings the voice of the student body to an organized focal point. It has its roots in the class meetings. The president and vice president of each Form are representatives on the Council. They bring their class’s ideas before the representatives of all the other Forms. Many times the procedure is just the opposite. The Council will submit one of its concerns to the student body via the Form meetings. The Prefects, also Council members, arc representatives of the Administration. Some of the matters which the Student Council dealt with this past year were candy sales. Homecoming button sales, the Homecoming Dance, the Mid-Winter Formal, the United Fund Drive, and a St. Barnabas Hospital Volunteer program. The officers elected were: as president, Peter Johnson; as secretary, Michael Mishou; as treasurer, Fred Junger; and as parliamentarian, Randy Schapiro. The Rev. Ernest Campbell was the faculty advisor. The Student Council met every Monday, its meetings following “Robert’s Rules of Order.” After the meetings the minutes were posted on the bulletin board for the student body to read. Ultimately then, the Student Council consists of the main elements of the student body, assembled in a small group which is a more organized seat for discussion. 9
