wur During its fourth year of operation, the personnel of WITR has made many changes. WITR now consists of Master Control, from which the engineer operates the technical end of a program; Studio A, from which the announcing personalities work; Studio Br which is a combination office, library and recording studio, WITR operates from 12 noon to 12 midnight in three hour programs, the format of which is the choice of the announcer in charge of the show. There are many colorful positions open in addition to those of announcing and engineering. Writing copy for local ads, photography and art work for WITR promotion, and meeting and training new staff members are only a few. WITR is a fast growing organization open to all students.

William Wing Chairman Angel Pilato Secretary 140 Decem jam Decem Jani, formed in 1962, functions as a liaison between stu- dents, administration, and faculty. The Board consists of ten stu- dents and two administrative advisors. Our purpose is to discover and investigate present and potential problem areas; advise the proper Institute segment ot any ideas or projects that would aid in the development and progress of the Institute. The Board shall have no authority, but shall recommend to the responsibility center(s) concerned their solution to a given problem. The Board shall not restrict itself to any particular group, but shall serve the entire Institute—students, faculty, and adminis- tration. The work of the Board shall be in the interests of the stu- dents. Only the Chairman and Secretary are known. The other members remain anonymous so that their investigations may be more ef- fective. This year's graduating members will be named next year. The 1963 graduation members were: Larry Downs, Chairman; Sheila Mason, Secretary; Terry Sholley, Gretchen Olin, and Dan McGillicuddy.

STUDerrr counciL The primary means of communication between the stu- dent body and the administration is Student Council. Student Council is the legislative body of the Student Association, of which every student is a member. The Council, operating under a new constitution this year, brings the needs and the desires of the students to its floor, to be discussed and evaluated, and carries out measures with these needs in mind. Student Council's duties include dispersal of its yearly budget of over fifty thousand dollars, and coor- dination of all campus activities. Its responsibility is to the student and the proper formulation and expression of his opinion. This year's Student Council, headed capably by Ron Sherman, has brought many innovations to the Con- crete Campus. Among them have been: a freshman ini- tiation program; the establishment of Freshman Coun- cil: a loan for the purchase of an RIT mascot, our Bengal Tiger; a new system of government with an approved constitution; and an overall increase of school unity and spirit. Student Council's weekly meetings are always open to any interested student wishing to observe his govern- ment in action. Not only are resolutions passed on affairs of the campus, but the President’s Report often con- tains matters of national and international significance. Due to the increased interest and vigor of this year's Student Council, the answer to the previously often heard question What does Student Council do for me? is common knowledge.
