Since it represents every phase of campus life, the board is able to deal conscien- tiously with each question, and its ellec- tiveness lies in this fact. Each spring, Executive Board meets at Asilomar for a conference to discuss problems and to revise Associated Student activities. Re- moved lrom the Ilurry ol campus life, the members can consider student govern- ment objectively. Constitutional changes are presented to the students for con- sideration and action.
