STUDENT COUNCIL President: Herbert B. Cousins Vice-President: Robert H. Dean Secretary: Adair Dyer, lr. The Student Council's major achieve- ment of the year was the establishment of a new form of student representation. To replace the old system of open meetings, the council set up a group of students, numbering about twenty, to represent equally the various houses and dormitories in the school. Meetings of this group with the Student Council were held at intervals of a month, and the plan proved effective in bringing out student opinion on topics of current discussion. The most important subject for discus- sion at these meetings was the problem of formal dances at Exeter. The loss suffered by the Fall Dance brought to prominence the question of whether students wished to maintain the regular dances in the gym and, if they did, how the dances could be made to draw the necessary attendance. i Increased numbers of Southern and West- ern students have failed to attend the dances so the council decided to try holding a few informal dances with neighboring girls' schools in order that the boys from outside of New England might have a chance to meet girls. ln the spring term on Alumni Day, a dance was planned with Abbot Academy and fifty girls were invited. The council planned to pick seventy boys by lot, fifty of whom would escort girls. The council also started an investigation of extra-curricular activities. A question had arisen as to whether there were too many activities and whether too much of the student's time was spread over a wide variety of activities instead of concentrating on one or two. The strong support of the Exonian helped in making known the activities of the coun- cil. By its new dormitory representation and by close cooperation with the school paper, the council was able to determine more clearly the needs and desires of the student body. STUDENT COUNCIL First Row: Goddard, R. H. Dean, Cousins, A. Dyer, R. C. Robbins. Second Row: Angell, Thoenen, Fish, Canning, Madden, Rossmassler. fiooi
