Mimi W 7' The Student Council is the representative governing body ' for the students of the University. As an intermediary 1 between the administration and the student body, the main ..-..... .,;. ,. .-.--... .- -...... function of the Council is to define and interpret the interests of the student body and to coordinate these interests with the objectives of the University. To achieve this end suc- cessfully, the officers and representatives are elected by the student body. Representation in the Student Council tries to cover all facets of campus life so that each group will have a voice in the student government. During the past year, the Student Council has witnessed such events as a change in Presidents during the second semester, the redecorotion of the Council office, a listing of all day students published in a Student Directory, and the long-needed revision of the constitution. Also, the services of a tuberculosis bus were successfully received by 1026 students, faculty, and staff members. The Arts and Letters Series has sponsored a varied and active cultural program. lts lecture program, comprised of many speakers, was highlighted by Ambassador William Atwood; Conrad Lynn, chairman of the Freedom Now Com- mittee; and Madelyn Murray, editor of the American Atheist Magazine. The Bennington Modern Dance group and Cl Jazz Festival Featuring Joe Gaines and his fourteen-piece band were also presented as a part of this diversified program. On November 9th, the social committee of the Council presented the Fall Folk Festival, which can be termed nothing but a success. Mike Settle, Addis and Crofut, and the Gaslight Singers provided superior entertainment. The Mordi Gras Ball and the coronation of the Campus Queen on May 1 completed the social committee's program. The Student Council attempts to improve the welfare of the entire student body and is constantly striving for greater emciency in this task. During the year, it made progress in this direction.
