It was or- ganized in the spring of 193 2, and took the place of the old Student Council. The Senate is composed of one senator from each of the fraternities and sororities, three senators from Men ' s Hall, two senators from the Independent Association, and one from each of the women ' s halls. The Senate elects the officers of the student body, the officers of the senior class, and also elects the members of the committees of the three other classes, the members of the DePauw Board of Control, the Mirage Board, and the Student Affairs Committee. All of the University dances are sponsored by the Senate. The Senate is primarily interested in student self-government and the pro- motion of student enterprises that would benefit and raise the standard of the University. During the past year the DePauw Student Senate sent Wendell Kay, the president of the student body, as a delegate to the National Conference of Student Governing Bodies, which was held at Boston during the Christmas holidays. Kay took an active part in the conference and gave a report of the proceedings at one of the Sunday evening vesper services. The Senate also sponsored the International Relations Conference, which was held Friday-Saturday, March 8-9, in Meharry Hall. The officers of the Senate for the past year have been: president, Wendell Kay; vice-president, Elizabeth Dye; secretary, Louise Slutz; treasurer, Robert Kaade. Twenty-four

The Student Affairs Committee is the medium between the student body and the faculty of the University. The committee was organized under the regime of the Student Council as a clearing-house for the complaints and recommendations of both faculty and students. With the organization of the Student Senate, the committee was reorganized, but retained the same purpose. Under the present system, the Student Affairs Committee is made up of seven student members and eight members chosen from the faculty and administration. Student members are elected by the Student Senate. The president of the Senate is automatically the chairman of the committee. Faculty members of the committee are appointed by the president of the University. Meetings of the committee are held on the second Tuesday cf each month. At that time suggestions, requests, and communications received from the student body are considered and acted upon. At present the Student Affairs Committee includes the following members: Wendell Kay, president; Jean Davidson, Virginia Andrews, Helen Williams, Richard Reynolds, John Christenson, Robert Lee, all from the student body; President 0- nam; Miss Kunter, who acts as secretary of the committee; Dean Blanchard, Dean Alvord, Dean Smith, Dean Dirks, Professor Shearer, and Professor Hixson.
