Back Row: CorLEY, WALKER 3ecause the center of Newberry’s system is the student and because a college is a democracy where the function of government is the business of all, an important step toward cooperative government at Newberry is the existence of the Student Council elected: by the student body. The officers, whose duties are to work for the best interest of all students, are President, Vice-President, Secretary, and ‘Treasurer. The President must be a rising senior boy, the Vice-President a rising senior girl. The Secretary and the Treasurer may be rising juniors or seniors, boys or girls. The selection is made by secret ballot. The faculty acts as an arbiter in all matters pertaining to the students of the college. Harris McConnELL .. . . President Curtis GatTuin. . . .

The Women’s Council is composed of a group of young ladies, elected by the girls of Carnegie Hall and approved by the faculty. The duties of this group are to enforce college rules and to provide for the safety and happiness of all the girls. Dur- ing this term, the council has par- ticularly stressed the necessity for more studying in the dormitory with the goal of decreasing the number of deficiencies. Although the council has been smaller in number this year, the council members have carried on conscientious work. The group is composed of three seniors, one of whom is chairman, a junior, a sopho- more, and a freshman. Front Row: LaKr, HALLMAN. Rack Row: CouNTs, OELLERICH, SAXTON, STEWART, KNEECE, CUMALANDER.
