FOOT HILL iTUDRNT OVERNMEHT at RUTHERFORD CORRRGR R) UTHERFORD College has many organizations, but the one that is by all means serving Rutherford in the most useful manner is Student Government. This is the first year that Rutherford has had a form of government which is eon- trolled exclusively by the students. With the beginning of the school year 1929, a number of the students expressed a desire to have the conduct of the school entrusted to their care. To this the faculty was willing to consent, and immediately following a week of campaigning and selecting of candidates for the several offices was held. A number of efficient officers were elected. These men began at once to make plans in order to put the government to work. A trustworthy council of twelve men was appointed, these men were representatives from the various organizations of the school. Since or- ganizing student government the officers and councilmen have controlled the affairs and problems of the school in a most commendable way. Student government is exactly what Rutherford College has needed for these many years, and we trust that the students will never let it pass out of existence in Rutherford College. tf
