Blbllli AND QQLID The BLUE AND GOLD may be classified as one of the campus activities sim- ilar to Press Club. It is composed of a staff elected from the two upper classes and chosen by the student body. This staff assumes the active work of the bi- annual publication of the NVomen's College. The editing of the book involves extensive Work in photography, art, business management, Writing, and advertis- ing. The entire student body cooperates in the financial support, and each stu- dent receives a copy of the book-in which she has recorded 'lor her a short his- tory of her classmates and a picture of her college days.

SlllLllDli1Nll SELIFZGQVERNMENT Student Self-Government Association is a cooperative association of which every student automatically becomes a member upon entrance to college. It is perhaps the one campus organization which holds the interest of every student, for although we place the immediate executive control in the hands of a small body, it is we ourselves who automatically run it. Through this association, the honor system can be successfully operated and by the COOpC1'atlVC support of each member, the various campus organi- zations are flnanced. It is the officers who assume the active responsibility of the organization. 'They sponsor Founders' Day exercises, the Thanksgiving Banquet, and Parent-Student Day. It is this same student council, composed of members from each class and elected by the student body, who hold the judicial power and assume responsibility for maintaining the associationis standards. A faculty advisory committee approves any changes made in the consti- tution and gives counsel in the activities of the association.

Ql,llfllNQ CLUB One of the most remarkable institutions of our college is the Outing Club. Remarkable, for after 11 years of its existence, ambitious young ladies still will arise at 5:30 to go hiking over the country side. It is a select group, for unfortunately there are not a great many who can manage to arrive on the steps of Science early enough to go tramping down to White Clay Creek, or WVelsh Tract Church, before breakfast. Blistered feet, and 10 mile hikes also reduce the number of aspirants, but those who find they can endure such hardships, assure us that cocoa and hot-dogs are never so delectable as when cooked in the great out-of-doors. So this year we are celebrating the 11th birthday of the Outing Club. The acquaintance of some knowledge of scouting and Woodcraft are part of the program of this club, are words found in the 1925 edition of the BLUE AND Gow. VVe fear the more modern members have not been aspiring to such heights, but burned cocoa and charred hot-dogs are the same delicacies today as in 1925. PRESIDENT- JEAN Staten One lzu1zd1'ed ten
