Student Union Cabinet A great country cannot exist without an efficient and well-rounded govern- ment. Neither can a college community function well without an efficient and well-rounded Student government. The theme of the 1955 Elms is the Student Union government. Walter Herrscher, Student Union President, overlooks all ac- tivities. Caroline Sturm, Social Life Chairman, looks into the social life of the student body in the yearbook ' s first section. Dick Ellerbrake, the Publications Chairman, sees that the publications toe the mark in section number two. Ralph Meyer, Religious Life Chairman, co-ordinates religious activities in the third part, and Dan Schmiechen covers sports in section four. Administration, faculty, and student pictures follow, and the advertisement section completes the 1955 Elms. The ten cabinet members hold the most important positions in the Student Union government. Hence they are most responsible to the students. Whether discussing the budget, or considering some other college activity involving the students and their relationships to each other, to the faculty, or to the administra- tion, the Cabinet seeks to fully represent the students as a whole. The student Senator represents particular groups, such as the Senior Dorm Students or the Freshman Town Students. Able to bring back to the entire Senate the wishes of his or her group, the Senator initiates legislation and also votes on recommendations made by the Cabinet. The Senate is thereby the direct means through which students can make themselves heard in the affairs of the Student government.
