Georgian Court University - Courtier Yearbook (Lakewood, NJ)

PROVISION for student activity and participation in the government of Georgian Court College is made by means of the Student Council. This organization is composed of thirteen girls, and works under the guidance of Sister Mary Concepta, Dean, who acts as Faculty Adviser. Each student participator on the council has a defi- nite duty to perform: transacting the business, directing the discipline, and planning the campus activities of the student body. The gold tassel, sym- President bol of leadership, is worn on the academic cap of each Council mem- ber to distinguish her from the whole of the student body. The President is generally respon- sible for all activities of the Council and presides at the meetings of the student body. The Vice President re- places the President when necessary and guides the Freshman class, acting as their President until they elect their own class officers at Thanks- giving.

Sister Mary Patrice, Librarian, and Miss Doryce Heath, assistant, are there as usual to give direction or counsel to all who come with problems. It is now five-fifteen and ali classes and laboratories are closed for the day. From all directions we see the girls strolling toward the oft-mentioned focal point, Raymond Hall, while others having reached the arcade, chat in groups awaiting the welcome call to supper. Some exuberant souls are laughing gaily over letters the late mail brought and the eyes of some sparkle at news from home, especially when home is far-off China. This is the one time in the day when all can relax, and care- free laughtcr is a delightful respite after the exacting demands of the day. ti ster Mary Patrice and Miss Doryre Heath. These girls spend n few leisure moments in the reading room. At six-fifteen all assemble in chapel where Father Keenan conducts tl1e novena in honor of our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. Confes- sions are heard after the novella and Benedic- tion of the Most Blessed Sacrament, and by seven o'clock all students are in their respec- tive halls and ready for the evening period of study. After a long, informative and wortl1- while day each Courtier is ready to retire at eleven o clock, thankful for the opportunity of advancing toward the two-fold goal in her college education. She has made some prog- ress in the integration of Christian thought and teaching with all her activities, and re- tires as she arose, with a prayer on her lips. F ' f ,.9t,- A. 431- f .
