I I , Educational Policy Directly concerned with the most essential side of Oberlin life-studies, the nine-student Educational Policy Committee brings student complaints and suggestions on educational practices before a compar- able board composed of six faculty members, headed by Dean Blair Stewart. Meeting in three sections to study the Oberlin educational scene in the fields of the humanities, the physical sciences, and the social sciences, the committee reported this year on the in- dependent studies program, seminars, and a counsel- ling system to aid sophomores in choosing their majors. Women s Board On a trial basis for this year, the Won1en's Board. made up of six students and six faculty members, assumed the legislative and judicial duties of the de- funct Won1en's Senate. First on the Board's agenda was the reorganization of the womenis government, which entailed revising both the constitution and the Women's rulebook. Foremost among the Boardis judicial duties was the enforcement of all college rules, especially those concerning the use of cars and liquor. A referendum of the Women students will de- cide the permanent role of the Womex1's Board. FIRST ROW: Mrs. Marlys Fixx, Frances Craig, Rosemary Parkins, Elizabeth Greensmith.
