It is com- posed of all the women of the student body. The purpose of the organization is to unite the commuting and resident girls in one group and to develop among the Geneva women a spirit of independence and self-reliance combined with a spirit of cooperation. This year in cooperation with those in charge of Freshman Week, the W. S. G. A. as their contribution entertained at a Campus Party where the new girls became ac- quainted with the girls already in the Association. In October the Gym was the scene of a Co-Ed Party at which half the girls in attendance dressed as boys and es- corted other girls. In November the first tea on this year's program was held and in December the Annual Christmas Formal Dinner was enjoyed at the Broadhead Hotel. This year, rather than the usual Formal in the Gym, the Spring Formal consisted of a dinner at the Beaver Valley Country Club. This proved to be quite a successful means of entertaining. The yearly lVIother's Day Tea in lVIay proved the usual pleasant occasion. l26I

However it has been the purpose of the organization to enlarge its scope of authority and to be- come more beneficial to the students.

This is a system of points by which the number of extra curricular activities in which a student may participate are limited, thus giving more students the opportunity to take part in extra-curricular work. A student committee was appointed and worked with a faculty committee in connection with this project, the results of their efforts only recently being made known. Looking to the future, the last administration feels that several changes should be made in the system of government at Geneva. Among these are suggestions for a board of control to govern all organizations, a calendar upon which all functions should be scheduled. and a tax for rendering the senate financially independent. l25l
