In reality it is composed of a group of kindly girls, who believe that justice must be carried out. They do not enjoy their task of meting out penalties. But it is upon them that the serious and all-important responsibility of considering and punishing cases involving a breach of the honor code falls. None of us can fail to appreciate that this group of girls makes one of the greatest of all Contributions to the maintenance of one of the finest of Goueher traditions, a tradition which we shall always remember and be proud of, an honor system that really works.

Armstrong fudmfs ' Organization - pvfifivus, affirm. he Students' Organization of Goucher pro- vides the students with their opportunity to con- trol to some extent rules and regulations and to provide for their own discipline and activities. Each student of Goucher is a member of this 'organization and participates in the elections of its officers. Here the Goucher student is given a chance to practice leadership and demonstrate her ability to follow. The enforcement of Coucher's Honor System lies under the jurisdiction of this organization. The freedom each student has in conjunction with examinations and all work is made possible by the constant efforts of Students' Organization to keep alive scrupulous adherence to the rules and regulations. Thus responsibility for the maintenance of high academic and social stand- ards has been entrusted to the students in co- operation vvith the faculty. Through mass meetings and elections, each student is allowed a voice in .this democratic 26 Kcsalufinus and kegulafivus aspect of our college world. Students' Organiza- tion is the means by which student opinion and reaction reaches the faculty and administration. Student Organization also handles many of the year's activities such as the NV inter Cotillion, May Ball and Thanksgiving Dinner. lt is the guiding force behind the major activities in the social life of the college. Students' Organization meets regularly three times a year. It functions through the Executive Board which meets weekly and the judicial Board which considers all cases involving a breach of honor. This instrument of contact between the faculty and the student body is a force very much alive at Coucher, conciliating administrative demands and student wishes and maintaining appropriate conduct in the Student Body both through the llonor System and the Tone Committee.
