Students numbered nearly fifty more than the preceding year.

The largest class, the sophomores, numbered over 2853 the juniors added about 226 members to the student body. Nearly 258 seniors assured the 1962 class of almost forty more graduates than last year. The group which best represented the student body was the Student Council, Elections are held in the spring of each year for president and repre- sentatives.
