Employ- ing a semi-honor system whereby each girl is encour- aged to report her own offenses, Student Board has the responsibility of issuing demerits and other ap- propriate penalties for reported breaches of conduct. A pre-school picnic for all members of the Day Students' Organization began the year's activities. On October 8, the D.S.O. collaborated with Dorm Council in conducting a symposium to improve rela- tions between day students and residents. The follow- ing month D.S,O. sponsored a ticket-selling cam- paign for the Drama Department's production of The Wisteria Trees, Proceeds added to those made through similar projects over the past three years enabled D.S.O. to furnish McAuley Hall lobby. A mixer held in October and the sixth annual Open House held on Jan- uary 28 for prospective day students concluded the groups major activities. Dorm Council endeavors to insure the smooth functioning of resident life. Besides its many routine duties, such as taking dinner count and setting up a system of study-hour monitors, Dorm Council also decorated the Christmas tree in front of McAuley Hall, a practice it hopes to include among the Christ- mas traditions of the college.

Serving as the voice of the student body, Student Council works, both as an organization in itself, and through its branches, Student Board of Discipline, Day Students' Organization, and Dorm Council, to promote a harmonious atmosphere within the college. To initiate the 1961-1962 social season, Council sponsored a College Day in October, inviting the men from Gannon College to be guests for a Saturday afternoon of twisting,', and a buffet dinner climaxed by a dance in the evening. Another mixer, held in January, was also welcomed as a last opportunity for relaxation before semester exams. Direct contact between Student Council and the entire student body was promoted by an assembly in February. The Council conducted a mock meeting to explain the operations and procedures of the or- ganization more fully. Student Carlow, M. A. Kern, C. Emanuele, E. Motsay, P. O'Gorman, S. Konkoly, J. Layer.
