Tllll 'l'll THE Student Council consists of fourteen members: the four officers of the Council, president, vice president, secretary and treas- urer, the auditor, the four class presidents, the four commissioners of Discipline, Social Ac- tivities, Catholic Action and Extra-Curricular Activities, the parliamentarian, which is a new office this year. Each position is recognized as honorable, and each carries with it great responsibilities. Gold tassels worn on the academic cap distinguish members of the Student Council from other members of the student body, VThrough this Council the entire student body is given an opportunity to participate actively in the government of the college. The Council meets on the Tuesday preceding the monthly student body meeting. The president presides at these student body meetings where all student business is transacted according to 'l' illlll CIL strict Parliamentary law. The vice president acts as the temporary president of the fresh- man class until their official election in De- cember when leadership has been given suffi- cient time to be recognized. The secretary has the duty of keeping accurate records of all meetings, both the Council and the student body meetings. The financial status of the student body is checked by the treasurer, who makes her report at each monthly assembly. The auditor's special responsibility entails checking over the accounts of the various class and club treasuries. Commissioners attend to their own assigned duties, while the presidents of the four classes report and speak for their classes on business matters. Sister Mary Giovanni, dean, is the modera- tor who advises the council members about all college government regulations.

ff ll' COU RTIER LITERARY STAFF Changing layouts, proof-reading and marking pictures kept the literary staff busy from September until June. UPON completion of the l9-49 Courtier there is much to be said in appreciation to those who made this book possible. To you, Sister Mary Joan, the senior class and particularly the Courtier staff wish to acknowledge their debt of gratitude for your untiring efforts to make our book one of which we are proud. There was much, work to be done and you, Sister, as our moderator, in- spired us with your constant enthusiasm and interest. All forty-seven of us say Thank you , two compact words enveloping deep ad- miration and respect for you. The Courtier staff also conveys appreciation to the faculty, parents, advertisers, photogra- phers and publisher who gave their generous attention, cooperation and support to us at all times. Tllll 1949 We endeavored to create' a book which would capture and make indelible remem- brances of college life. ln our theme we omitted one entrance that could not be photo- graphed, but rather one that we can open from within. May we open this entrance and see Georgian Court not only with our eyes but also with our hearts. We must never latch the gate to memories, yet passing time tends to make those memories vague and distant. lf the Courtier can lift the veil of the past and make it clear and vivid to us again it has accom- plished the goal for which it was intended. The i949 Courtier staff and moderator take this opportunity to extend to the i948 Courtier staff and moderator sincere congratu- lations for achieving the coveted All American award from the National Scholastic Press Association.
