Student government One of the most important means of teaching self-reliance, independence, democracy, and coopera- tion is self-government. The girls of Rowland Hall are given the chance to choose their own executive, judicial, and legislative bodies. A president, a vice- president, a secretary, and a treasurer are chosen by the student body to carry out the rules that the girls themselves have decided upon. A judge is elected; and with the aid of proctors she enforces the laws and decides, in case of controversy, if a girl is guilty of breaking a rule. Each class elects a representative to the Student Council which formulates these rules and makes any needed amendments to the constitu- tion. The student body as a whole can discuss prob- lems, suggest changes, and present individual views during assemblies which are held regularly. This democratic self-government has worked very well. Because they themselves have molded the framework of the organization, the students do their best to see that the statutes are carried out with fairness, good judgement, and equality to all. 25
