HE Cabinet is comprised of the headmistress, the executive officers of the Student Govern- ment, the class presidents, the heads of all student organizations, and the faculty advisors of the classes and organizations. As the advisory group, the Cabinet discusses problems which are of con- cern to the school as a whole. The prime issue discussed in Cabinet concerned the reviving of the school newspaperg should it replace the present magazine publication? After much deliberation, it was decided to solicit the opinions of the students. A survey of the student body's preference was conducted, and suggestions for improvements were obtained. A majority of the students indicated they wished to keep the magazine form. This settled the question, All sug- gestions were submitted to the Calliope staff. A new method for electing the Smilax Chain and the Sophomore Marshals was proposed. It was decided that the classes directly involved would determine the election method to be used. No change from the traditional methods was de- cided upon.

These two groups, working with the student body, maintain the honor system upon which Dwight's Student Government is based. This year the Student Government was led by Sully Specht, President, Alison Chase, Vice-Presidentg and Anne Cassebuum, Secretary-Treasurer. To stress the responsibilities and privileges ot' each girl in Dwight, democracy was chosen as the key word for Dwight's Hundredth Year.

HE president, the vice-president, the secre- tary-treasurer, two senators from each class, and the headmistress comprise the Senate, which is the legislative branch of the Student Govern- ment. In the early fall, the Senate made arrangements to speed and facilitate the orientation of the new girls. The program consisted of the Annual Name Contest and the Field Day Picnic, sponsored by the Athletic Association and the Senate. The Senate had co-operation from the student body throughout the year. The suggestion box was used freely, and everyone was invited to an Open Senate Meeting. The posting of the minutes on the Student Government bulletin board enabled the students to keep abreast of all the Senate meetings. As always, the Senate worked hard this year to maintain quiet study halls. Some of the smaller study halls were placed on the honor system, elimi- nating proctors. While carrying on the work of the past, this year's Senate has tried to make improve- ments and adjustments in the rules Wherever possible. Senate OFFICERS Sealed-Sally Specht. President.
