The answer to this need came in the form of the Student Dance Board. The constitution bears the influ- ence of all the factions interested in the movement. It is probably for that reason that it has been as well pro- pagated as it has. Patience and cooperation on the part of all concerned have made it a prominent success and a solution to an obvious problem. There were, at the outset, many infractions of the rules and by-laws of the Constitution. These were in! vestigated by a committee from the board and if reported C293 serious were referred back ro the hoard and the organiza- tion charged with breaking the rules was given a formal trial. This method was not as satisfactory as it was hoped and the formal trial of an organization was done away with, being replaced by a committee from the board and the faculty who decided to what extent the rules were broken and what should be clone about it. This method is now in use, however there have been no calls made upon it in the past year. The Dance Board this year has been successful in giving all-school dances. These functions have been only an ideal in the minds of several of the members for some time but not until this year have they been successfully arranged.

THE APPORTIONING BOARD an--'-' Divis, Gragg. Hefley, Kline, Boone, Marsh Student Apportioning . oard ORYlI,I.I: Kristi W'n,i .neo Booxii ilihe Student Alwpoi'tioi1i1i5g Board of Uklahoma City Universitv represents as its objective a most democratic purpose, the greatest good to the greatest number. Certain departments and institutions are recognized as necessary to a complete college life. These are nanielyg the Student Council, a periodical campus paper, a vear book and an active Y. VV. C. A. and Y. Nl. C. A. These departments are maintained through the student funds. These funds are handled and apportioned in yearly budf gets from the activity fee which the students pay at the bcginning of each semester. The formation of the Apportioning lloard was the result ot the efforts of Horace Robinson and Victor YVillf ianis, former students. It was originally formed to insure the publication of a year book. As the success of the board became apparent the budgeting of other campus activities was entrusted to the hoard. All of the student fees were put into one activity fee which led to a great ....Cbr11rmf111 .....Serre1m'y simplification of matters. All of the above named activities are now financed tlirough the Student Apportioning board by means of the t t student activity fees. This board was started as an experiment under the close watch of the Board ot Trustees and thc faculty. The books are checked every mouth by a faculty representaf tive. It is the general opinion that more good is given to the greatest number of students by means of this Board. The agencies served by this hoard all Work toward serving the students in their respective capacities. The trust vest- ed in this body is justified and deserved. lVlenibership on this board is held by four students, a president and a secretary, who may or may not be a voting member. lflection by the Student Council gives the members their positions. 4281 '

It business and foundation is service to the university. The instigation and perpetuation of worthwhile movements is its function. The hearty acclaim of faculty and students is the result of its existence. The membership of Blue Kev is chosen from those on the campus who have shown themselves to be construcf tive leaders in their scope of activities. A unanimous ac- ceptance of the members of the fraternity is necessary bef fore any man can be pledged to the organization. The grade average of the candidate must be above the all mens average. New members are usually selected from the juniors or seniors who have already proved themselves leaders. The basic ideals of the fraternity are, a belief in God, a reverence for intellectual attainment, and a dedication to service to the university. Blue Key works in cooperation and harmony with the faculty and administration of the school. Meetirigs with the president of the university and the faculty committees are held when situations of common interests are to be discussed. lvlenibers of this organization are 1110l'C or less char- acterized by the fulfillment rather than the haphazard acceptance of responsibilities. A dinner and business meeting is held every month at which time reports of project committees are received and new business is discussed. Five faculty members are allowed. President Willizinison, Dean Replogle, Dean Brooks, and Dr. Nfaxwell are now faculty members. y C305
