RESIDENT STUDENT COUNCIL Part of a student's growth depends upon the social environs and regulations to which she submits. Resident Student Council, composed of the officers and the six dormitory presidents, is, traditionally, a coordinating link between the resident stu- dents and the administration. In order that the overall Queens outlook might be happily conducive to maturity and self-control, this year’s Council constantly evaluated, revised, and formulated the social regulations under which the resident students lived. I he Council functioned in all areas concerned with dormitory life. Their duties might have been as grave as a merit system offense or handbook test for incoming freshmen, or as unjudicial as sponsoring exam breaks, dormitory Halloween and Christmas parties, and a day to honor Bob Rowe and Saga Food Service.

Here, day students find just time to eat a quick lunch and riffle through a forgotten assignment. DAY STUDENT COUNCIT In many tangible ways, Day Student Council serves to relate non-resident students to campus life and campus events. I his year there were such acti ities as a party at the river to welcome new non resident stu dents to Queens. As every year. Day Student Council scored a success with the “Black Friday uction, which is held to raise money for a scholarship for the next academic year. For this occasion, both resident and non-resident students scrimped and saved their money weeks in advance of the auction, so that they could hid high for Dr. 1 lermann’s chess pic or a dinner .it the Luau with Miss Atkins. Other activities included sponsoring a Sunday after- dinner coffee, a faculty tea, and making provision lor a Charlotte family at Christmas. I his years Council took special pride in helping to refurbish and decorate Blair Union, a central place where non residents may go to relax, study, eat lunch, knit, or play cards. In this manner, the Day Student Council endeavors to promote in the day students a sense of responsibility and loyalty to the Queens College community. I ■
