To represent the resident college men of Green Mountain Junior College in an official capacity incident to resident student life at the college. 2. To formulate, direct, and provide, with power to enforce. rules and regulations for the welfare of resident college men. Activities By creating the spirit of good fellowship through the sponsoring of such activities as steak roasts, by lending a guiding hand to fellow students through personal conferences, and by helping to build a mutual understanding between college men and the faculty, the 1936-37 council climbed to higher peaks in its attempt to make the life of resident men more meaningful and worthwhile. During the month of February the Council was re-organized after a brief conflict with the Faculty Committee over a matter of authority of the student government. The Council was not recognized as having the power to intervene in the suspension of two students and consequently its members resigned. A student protest, in the form of a one-day strike, followed, but conciliation was quickly reached between the students and the Faculty Committee when a new Council, the one pictured above, was elected by a popular vote.
