Bettering “Better relations” in three areas challenged the 116 Stu-Cong members this year. In August the first project bettered student-faculty relations as volunteers helped to orient incoming sophomores. Throughout the year Stu-Cong planned the year’s calendar, served a pancake breakfast to teachers, and sponsored the WRIA-faculty game and a Teacher Swap day. Collecting money for Jerry’s kids, competing in an aluminum can drive, and ringing bells for the Salvation Army created school spirit and cemen- relations ted community-school relations. Student Leadership Day seated several members in chairs normally occupied by community officials. To foster student-to-student communication, activities ranged from dances to NSL day, from suggestion boxes in Social Hall to trick-or-treat, candy-cane, and carnation-distribution projects. An all-school assembly allowed students to view themselves and each other favorably as they watched the film’ “Everyday Heroes.” CAMPAIGN STRATEGY—Being well-known is every candidate's desire.
