Primarily an after-hours extension of the Dean's office, the Resident Hall Council, com- prised of the Resident Assistants and Repre- sentatives, continued to administer a pre- tense of law and order on campus. Maintain- ing the peace on the docile Covenant campus usually consisted of inspecting rooms, man- ning the Student Affairs desk, or in the case of the women, making the evening room check. Besides standing as the symbol of authority on campus, the Resident Hall Coun- cil also served as the bridge between the Dean of Students and the individuals in the resident halls. In addition to the more mundane tasks assigned to it, the Council performed a so- cial function as well. By abolishing the tra- ditional Kilter Day activities, they relieved the womens' dorm of much consternation. On the Saturday before the start of classes, the Council sponsored the traditional all- school outing at one Camp Cherokee. For some new students it was a time made ward by a lack of acquaintances. For others it was an afternoon spent in the pany of one or two close companions, dering corporately what to do, and then awk- most com- won- final- ly doing it. At any rate, the off-campus ac- tivity was a welcome change of pace for those students already suffering from castle- itis.

For many students the rigors of selecting courses, fill ing out cards in triplicate, and finally purchas- ing books took the greater part of the day. Freshmen, never quite sure of the next step, or at all certain of the last one, were especial- ly bewildered by the proceedings. Registra- tion yvas at least significant in that it served as a tangible starting point, a focal point, for the academic year that followed. I8 if 4? 14, 3+'fJs,

The dramatic gains in student government had been won previously, and the 1969-70 Council became primarily a consummation of the previous year's productivity. Although some plans were squelched by a lack of resources, cooperation and interest, there were important contributions through- out the year. The John W. Sanderson, Jr., Hon- or Scholarship Fund was established in rec- ognition of Dr. Sanderson's services as Pro- fessor in Philosophy and former Dean of the 1-Q-0 .Fa- Faculty. Worth Sl,OO0, the scholarship was financed through the solicitation efforts of Council and awarded primarily on the basis of academic achievement. In addition, and in an effort to better rela- tions with the community, Council sponsored a series of dinners for student leaders from area high schools. In a relaxed atmosphere, Council members and administration and fac- ulty representatives sought to acquaint the prospective collegians with the distinctive educational purpose of the foreboding castle on whitey mountain.
