Union Board Completes Active Year ln its three years of operation the Student Union Board has reached a position of importance among stu- dent organizations and has been labeled the most active organiza- tion on campus by students, facul- ty, and administration. Organized to govern the affairs of the Trojan Center and to provide educational, recreational, and cultural activities for students, the Board meets each week to plan such events as week- end movies, receptions, art dis- plays, educational lecture series, movie festivals, concerts, socials and numerous other events. Under the very capable direction of lVlr. Dave Edwards, the Board, com- posed of 3 executive officers and 5 committee chairmen, is advised by 3 faculty members and the Dean of Students. In the 1967-68 year the members of the newly created hospitality committee assumed their duties which ended only after more than 90 receptions had been given. At the last meeting of the year a recreation committee was added to the Board for scheduling activities in the IAQ Board's recently completed game room. l-lighlights of the Union activi- ties for the year were the Naval Combat and the community art ex- hibits, a lecture series on drugs which received wide publicity, the annual Christmas decorating party, the completion of the game room and the addition to the snack bar facilities, and the co-sponsorship of the College Scholarship Night at lnterlakes Speedway which raised over S5500 for scholarships. During the inauguration of Dr. Bowes, the Board opened the Trojan Center as headquarters and offered a variety of services to visitors. wt' SERVING ON THE 1967-68 UNION BOARD were: lstandingj Deda Rae Schultz, Vicki Woo- dard, Linda Hotvet, Connie Prouty, Georgia Versteeg, Mr. Bulfer, Dean Davidson, Mr. Arnold, Mr. Hackett, and Mr. Edwards: Cseatedj Elmer Lovrien, Marlys Quinn, and Joel Jorgensen.

Committees Plan Year's Highlights I The committees of General Beadle State College have several diversi- fied and important duties. Whenever an event is scheduled, a committee is created to carry out the plans. Duties may involve being on the tel- ephone for hours, stamping enve- lopes until your lips are sore, lining up judges, speakers, sites, and supplies, seeing that the event is adequately advertised, printing and selling tickets, making several last minute arrangements, etc .... The duties are almost endless and be- 170 fore the members of the various committees are through they svvear they will never do it again. But after the event is over, they remember only the satisfaction of a job well done, and if they are coming back to school the next year, vvant to make sure they are on the committee again. Active committees which have sponsored events this past year included the I-lomecoming Commit- tee, Miss GBSC Committee, Madri- gal Committee, and the Social Com- mittee. The General Homecoming Committee is selected in the spring of the year and works throughout the summer months in outlining de- tailed plans for each Tutor Day event. The Miss GESSC Committee is solely responsible for the annual Miss General Beadle Pageant. Months of planning precede the now annual two-day event. The Social Committee is comprised of tvvo FGD- resentatives from each class. The committee holds monthly meetingS and sponsors a number of eventS
