Our Student Government Student Council at S.M.V.A. consists of the four student body officers, the two inter-school council representatives, the presidents and vice presidents of the classes and the sodality prefect. These girls under the guidance of our principal lan and di- : P rect the major activities of the year. Before the social calendar of the academy can be formulated, members of the inter-school coun- cil must submit dates for approval. The inter- school council has representatives from the Cath- olic schools in the vicinity of Portland. Such sched- uling prevents conflicts-particularly in the social .events of the year. It is the duty of the student council to see that student government functions smoothly and that any infractions of regulations that might occur be eliminated. Through the student council and student gov- ernment the principle of subsidiarity is practiced at the Academy. We have the opportunity to de- velop qualities of leadership and on other oc- casions we must be followers. Christian principles, at all times, underlie the basic activities of our Gallery.
