If so, what is the nature of that gapiw The Student Curriculum Committee investigated and discussed these and other questions during the past year. They made wide use of questionnaires, pro tema, members and other devices which en- abled them to voice student opinion on academic problems. Through Dr. Kenneth 0. Walker, the faculty advisor, they kept in touch with the issues under consideration by the faculty curriculum committee, so that a closer integration of the upper and lower division courses might be effected. One evening during each term, the home of President and Mrs. Kraushaar was the scene of a lively, informative, and highly constructive meet- ing of the College Council. This Group, composed of faculty members and students, met, and under the leadership of President Kraushaar, discussed many of the problems which arose in the college during the year. Proposals from the administra- tion and the student body were oHered and dis- cussed here. The new regulation permitting juniors to have cars and other similar suggestions were channeled through the College Council this year. the CoHege Coundl Council talk is enjoyed by ad- ministrative, faculty7 and stu- dent members at Dr. Kraus- haar,s house in winter term. 31
