Leslie Zum Brunnen Harold Eisele Fraazccs Shattuck Eldon Smith 151112111112 The Volante, the student's own publication, is one of the most im- portant of the many student activities at Grand Island College. The college group is always interested in the campus news and the Volante chronicles school events in a way that meets with hearty approval. While the paper is primarily devoted to college news, a considerable amount of space is open for constructive editorials and well chosen articles of interest to col- lege people. As a result, the Volante is a factor in awakening and directing college spirit and activity. A new feature, introduced this year, is a department open to signed contributions by members of the student body. This opportunity for ex- pression has been made use of by a number of students and their letters have touched a number of subjects, all of real worth to the student thought. The Volante has always ranked high as a college paper and its standard has been well carried out this year by the staff under the leader- ship of Frances Shattuck as editor with Eldon Smith assisting her. The paper has been given a distinguished rating in the 1926-1927 College Press Publication contest, sponsored by the University of Illinois. Harold Eiselc, as business manager, has given an efficient service in this important de- partment of the publication. 'I ' F' '- . .Tr xffkf-.
