The purpose ofthe Council is to provide for students an outlet for practical Christian service. This is accomplished through various activities such as scouting, teaching Bible classes and Sunday school classes, and as- sisting at Bethel Bible School. Gospel teams too partici- pate in representing the college in near as well as in distant cities. Important too are the campus activities organized by the council- student chapel, prayer meeting, hymn sings, special music, and, more specifically, Dr. Sanderson's lec- tures on evangelism this fall. One of the main projects tackled by the council this year was the production of a denominational calendar which was circulated widely. However, behind such projects and activities Christian Service Council has a basis, a point that is stressed- Ye have not chosen me but lhave chosen you and ordained you that ye should go and bring forth fruit.

Brooks. 5 .a Covenant College has established certain standards ac- cording to its philosophy of Christianity. ln order to as- certain such standards and to offer guidance to students, the dorm counselors have become necessary figures in Covenant's system. Two elected representatives - Linda Crawford and Mary Simmons - have served as go-be- tweens, appealing and making requests to representatives of the Dean's Counsel. Seniors, Trudy Hall, Arline Wetzel, and Penny Sheraton assume greater responsibility as floor representatives who check students in and out and keep up with student whereabouts. Practical workers, June Stein, Roberta Birchler, Dorothy Ehler, and Barbara Van Wechel perform routine checking for hours and room appearance. Similarly in the men's dorm, counselors offer encourage- ment and guidance wherever they think it is needed. The purpose of both men's and women's counselors might be stated as personal and spiritual development assistance.
