June 1932 15 STUDENT COURT f 'f r - $ hi Frances Bauer Suzanne Breitstein Oleta Selna Dorothy Cascioni Gina Lana Associate Justice Associate Justice Chief Justice Associate Justice Associate Justice Have you ever wondered what the Student Court accomplishes or just how the Justices function? Of course you have, for the proceedings of this mysterious and dignified body which interprets the laws of Girls High School are held in strictest secrecy, and not a soul is permitted to enter the “sacred sanctum when a case is being tried. The sacred sanctum” is Room 118, and every Tuesday morning the Justices convene to hear the cases of students who are accused of misdemeanors. The de- fendant is always given every opportunity to prove her innocence. After her state- ment she is asked to leave the room, and the Justices discuss her case. The student is summoned and informed of the decision. 'I he Student Court is cognizant of the responsibility which rests upon it and endeavors to decide each case fairly and impartially. It has worked earnestly to up- hold the standards and ideals which it represents and, if possible, to make them better standards and higher ideals. Oleta Selna, Chief Justice
