THE BOAHD Seated: Warden, Heffernan, Lewis, Waters, Watson, Wiltsey. Standing: Brody, Wctzell, Corbett, Gertz, Poole. Since the turn of the century, the Hobart Board of Control has been the foremost legislative body on the campus. Its members consist of elected representatives from each class, plus a rep- resentative from the Interfraternity Council and Independent Body. Under the leadership of its President, Harvey Wiltsey; Vice-President, Albert Watson; and Secretary-Treasurer, Joseph Waters; the Board has concentrated upon the betterment of student organizations and close coordination within the student organizations themselves. One of the significant steps which the Board has taken is the close supervision of the finances of these campus organizations which receive money from the student tax. This previously dormant committee has been reactivated and is at present doing an excellent job. Perhaps the most important and difficult undertaking of this years Board was the revision and review of the New Student Union Government in an attempt to improve the social life of the inde- pendent body and the student body as a whole. More important than anything, however, the Board has backed both with finances and publicity, many lectures and concerts which are of great- est importance in a liberal arts education.
