ALBERT C. METCALF, B.S. HAROLD E. GIBSON, A3., A.M. Besides publicizing the college in excellent fashion through news of student affairs, and the View Book, Mr. Gibson advises the Greetings, Illiwoco and de- bate team. Mr. Metcalf, registrar, and sec- retary of the faculty, tends to many more tilings than his titles would infer. New bushes and sidewalks are traceable to his actions. HERBERT J. LENNOX, A.B., A.M., Ph.D. Dr. Lennoxj, director of admis- sions, sees that prospective stu- dents have such a good time that they cannot refrain from signing up as freshmen right away.

S. G. A. officers gather for a meeting. Seated: Ryniker, Breder; Standing, Wilson, Roseberry, McClelland, Allison. Student Government Institutes Changes Closed night was the major change in the college rules effected by the Student Govern- ment Association this year. By this plan, all club and society meetings are held on Monday nights, and girls are reguired to be on campus the entire evening with the exception of a forty- five minute period. This system has contributed to the more efficient allotment of time in the school week. Another progressive measure was the division of the organization into legislative, judicial and executive boards, giving each divi- sion more scope, yet uniting them, too. Three delegates were sent to the N.S.F.A. convention at Christmas time, and a convention of the east and west central districts was held on campus April 12 and 13. Continued actions were the Student Orientation Service, student opinion forums, and fun nights.
