Kyle lessee, President: Roy Wells. ViC2 -President: Elizabeth Colley, Secretary Student Council '55-'56 tudent Government The idea for student government originated with the pioneer class. The student body e- lected its officers October 27, 1954 who were President - Kyle lessee, Vice -President - Howard Dean, Secretary - Victor Hamilton, and Treasurer - Shirley Wilson. The officers represented the pioneer class, namely the student body. There was no constitution. The student body of 1955-'56 elected student body officers: President - Kyle lessee, Vice - President - Roy Wells, and Secretary - Treasurer - Elizabeth Colley. These student officers working with a committee of students and faculty members submitted a suggested constitution to the student body for approval. The final constitution was adopted October 30, 1955 for the student body. One of the things for which the constitution provided was a Student Council, to be the major factor of student government. The student body officers were to be Student Council officers. An election for class representatives to the Council was held January, 1956. The three Council officers who were Kyle Jessee, Roy Wells, and Elizabeth Colley and the four class representatives Dalton Graham and Elizabeth Stallard from the freshman class and Ed Gilliam and Ronald Sturgill from the sophomore class comprised the first Student Council. 24
