Treasurer John Cummings.Vice President Father Ro bbins.Moderator A link between the college administration and the student body, the Student Council is made up of the presidents of the classes and of the various campus organizations. Under the advisory supervision of the Director of Student Wel¬ fare, the Council considers in open session the suggestions and petitions of the students, acts upon them, and then submits its recommendations to the College Administrative Board for final action. The 1950-51 Council sponsored and supervised, through various committees, the most colorful Homecoming Festival in St. Joseph ' s history—replete with pep rally, bonfire, parade, barn dance and Homecoming prom. Through the efforts of the Council student-life at Collegeville has been fuller socially. Bi-monthly dances, held in the Rec Hall, to which young ladies of nearby colleges have been invited, have proved very enjoyable. Following a custom of several years standing, keys were awarded the mem¬ bers of the Council at the final Student Convocation of the school year.
