Ryan, advisor. SZucU tt Hathaway. A. Croaie, (77 HIS year the Student Council Members under chairmanship of Ann Cromie wrote a constitution for the S.C.S student council. The purpose of the organization is to create a closer union between the students and the faculty and to serve the student body through its representatives. The entire student body elect a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and one representative for each of the junior-senior high school classes to the student council. This election is held in June at which time the three party system used in the school names can- didates and conducts a regular campaign. The members of the party are named by taking all class registers and taking every third student. The individual parties meet in caucus and name a senior to be campaign manager and adopt a party platform. Candidates speak in assembly before election day. Through the courtesy of the board of elections the school obtains regular voting machines for use for the student council elections. Party A with Dick Corsetti as the presidential candidate and Joe Canzeri as campaign manager swept into office by a substantial majority last June. In addition to the representatives chosen by a vote of the student body, each class elects a representative, so that the student council is composed of at least two representatives from each grade--seventh through twelve. The rules and regulations governing the election state that the president must be a senior and the vice-president a junior. The secretary and the treasurer may be chosen from any class. The Student Council selects and sponsors the paid assembly programs, the yearbook and other functions on a school wide basis. The council meets the first Monday of each month with Mr. Ryan as advisor. 26
