The committee iscomposed of eleven members headed by chairman Dean Lawrence W. Lange, who with Dean Irma Voigt end a representative group of faculty members and students, meet weekly to discuss and decide on all matters of importance to the Uni- versity and the student body.

The Committee ' s student membership consists of the president of the Men ' s Union, the president of the Women ' s League, one elected member from each of these organizations, and a fifth student chosen by the Student Council after consideration of applications for the position 17
