Appointed by the President of the student body, the Cabinet chairmen head areas which are vital to the function- ing of the student government. The Cabinet areas are School Spirit. Finance. Social Activities. Student Government Treasury. Cafeteria. Buildings and Grounds. Day Student Affairs. Publicity, and Lost and Found. Their duties range from chartering buses for away football games and sponsor- ing pep rallies to posting the breakfast menu and providing records and record player for the bi-weekly dances in Carriger and Hillman Halls. One Cabinet committee studies the needs and requests of organizations requiring activity fee funds and makes the necessary allocation recommenda- tions to the legislature. Another makes arrangements for contracting the Four Preps for a November performance on campus. The Cabinet committees serve as interest areas for many members of the student body.

The program is highlighted by the Rat Dance and the crowning of Mr. and Miss Rat.” Ratting is a time-honored tradition on the Emory and Henry campus and its major unofficial task is to perpetuate the immortal soul of Jigalo Abernoski. 104

It initiates and decides upon issues and projects affecting the student body: regulates distribution of student activity fees: and approves presidential appointments. In addition to the elected legislators, class presidents of the three underclasses and vice-president of the senior class serve as legislators. Any member of this body may introduce legislation. The legislature is presided over by the Vice-President of the Student Body. He has no vote. The Clerk of the House is the Secretary-Treasurer of the Student 8ody. Legislative membership provides the recognition necessary for political parties on the campus.

The Judiciary is composed of justices elected from each hall in the men's dormitories. These justices provide residence halls with monitors: and they act as a jury should a trial be held. The Judiciary has a large responsibility in the effectiveness of the student government and has become a point of respect for Emory and Henry's student government. 103
