Student Council The present Student Council has been constantly endeavoring to improve the system of student government. One of the first forward steps was the method of holding the weekly meetings without faculty supervision. The theory behind this plan is that quite often the Council, in the presence of several masters, is hesi- tant about expressing ideas or opinions out of the regular line of thought. Also in the publishing of the notes of each meet- ing in the LEDGER, the student body is informed of what takes place during the discussions of the Council. The Prefects have established a new system of keeping demerit records. The name of each boy is placed on file, when- ever one receives a demerit, his slip and a comment on the nature of the offense, written on an index card, is placed under his name, Each boy also has a chart that lists the number of demerits received dur- ing any one week throughout the school year. The procedure of having an of- fender sign his own slip when he acknowl- edges his misdemeanor saves both the Prefects and the boy considerable time. Another innovation of this Council is the attempt to uphold the standards of Country Day both within and without the school. Since the school stresses the mold- ing of character, the members also have strived to improve this essential. Throughout the year the Prefects have met with representatives of the faculty. Complete cooperation between masters and Prefects, Prefects and Council, Coun- cil and student body has been continu- ally emphasized. There has been some feeling among the student body that election to the Council has been based on popularity rather than merit. To elimi- nate this as much as possible the Prefects have been meeting with the entire faculty to clarify the status of individual candi- dates for the Council. Much has been accomplished in this manner and the Stu- dent Council has advanced further toward the perfection of this program at Country Day.
