New and exciting developments took place during 1951-52 in the Student Program. New dormitories for both men and women were completed, and plans are underway for more. A thoroughgoing Orientation Pro- gram brought together new students of both Tulane and Newcomb in a series of meetings, parties, and dances. Dr. John H. Stibbs was named Dean of Students by President Harris, with responsibility for supervision of personnel matters throughout the several colleges of the University. With the help and experience of Miss Anna Many, the Counselor to Women at Newcomb Col- lege, Dr. Stibbs is developing a staff of assistants who not only carry their share of the administrative load but also serve as approachable, personal friends to the stu- dents. This year special attention was given to the Foreign Student Program. The Division of Student Life has been very much concerned about the increase in knowledge, understanding, and good will which can come from close division of DR. JOHN H.

J ■ m FADELL GOLDMIER HART HIDALGO MclNTYRE t u I a n e university JOHN G. WEINMANN Student Council President Composed of the presidents of each college and three officers elected by the student body, the Student Council is the voice of the 5,000 Tu- lane students in university matters. The respon- sibilities and duties this past year ranged from conducting the endov ment fund drive to causing an investigation of the cafeteria by higher school authorities. The Student Council of the 1951- 1952 session handled their business so efficiently as to make many students comment this is the best student council we ' ve ever had. The endowment fund drive backed by the council had as its aim 100% participation by the student body. Many of the colleges did re- ceive a donation from each of its students and none fell below the 90% mark, due to the per- sistent effort of the members of the council. In all routine affairs, handling of contracts, budgetary problems, university elections, settling minor issues, the student council of 1952 proved itself very outstanding. 20
