3 2 The Tax Committee meets to apportion the money and bewail the cuts. Um .Siucfenl 7am- a camfmllfifee appaapaiala if One of the smallest, yet one of the most important of cam-pus organizations is the 'Stu- dent Tax Committee. This group, established in 19.34, has complete control over the dis- posal of funds for student activities. The committee has only four members: two seniors, a junior and the President of the Student Council, ex oficio. The Student Tax Committee is a permanent subc-ommittee of the Student Council. The members during the spring term were James Hogeboom, '49, Chairman, Alfred Lewis, '48, Secretary, Donald Blake, '48, and Albert Hill, '48, Presi- dent of the Student Council. Prof. Wilford Ketz is adviser of the committee, and has no vote. The Trustees of the college have fixed S16 a year as the maximum student tax that may be charged. This gives about 824,000 in annual revenue. In addition to this sum money is available from sale of the Gridiron, proceeds of dances, and a few other sources. Revenue from advertising in the various pub- lications is usually set aside for the use of the activity from which it is derived. Money for each school year is apportioned Page Fourteen at budget hearings held about April of the preceding school year. A representative of each activity approved Iby the Student Coun- cil comes to the hearing with a budget for his activity. The budgets are examined by the committee, and, on the basis of the hearings, and with the expected revenue for the coming year in mind, the group distributes the funds to the various activities. The money is chiefly put in two categories: operating ac- counts, for the normal working of the organi- zation, and reserve accounts, set aside for specific purposes. A 'few men are given an opportunity to be present at the hearings by the committee. On the basis of their participation at the hearings recommendations are made to the President of the Student Council, who appoints the new members of the committee. The junior mem- ber automatically becomes ehairman in his senior year. During the past school year the committee disposed of approximately fB24,000, of which 312,500 went to publications, 356,600 to other activities, and the remainder to reserve ae- counts and miscellaneous items.
