THE STUDENT-FACULTY FEDERATION The Student-Faculty Federation, successor to Student Government at Evansville Col¬ lege, is regarded by the faculty and students alike as one of the most helpful develop¬ ments in the recent life and work of the college. In dealing with matters of mutual interest to students and to faculty relative to the life, work, and government of the col¬ lege, the Federation has shown continued success in the second year of its organization. An Administrative Board and eight committees compose the organization of the Fed¬ eration. The Administrative Board serves as a board of review and a court of appeal. It consists of seven members: the president of the college, the dean of the college, the deans of men and women respectively, and three elected officers of the student body. The Committees are: Athletics, Fine Arts, Promotion and Public Occasions Public Speech, Publications, Religious Life, Social Life, and Welfare. Faculty and student members have equal voice and vote in the meetings of each of the committees. During the year 1933-34 it was realized that there should be some possibility of appeal from decisions of the Administrative Board. After thoughtful consideration and thor¬ ough discussion a plan was adopted and incorporated in the constitution which makes it possible for either the faculty or the student body to bring about a referendum on any matter which has been acted upon by the Administrative Board. Such referendum will bring the question back for consideration by the entire student body and faculty assem¬ bled in mass meeting, with the voting so arranged as to give each group equal voice in the final decision. It is generally felt that the functioning of the Student-Faculty Federation thus far has more than measured up to every expectation and desire of its promoters. The student participation has been frank, free, and effective. Representative students sitting on committees, formerly made up for the most part of faculty members, have imparted fresh ideas, new points of view, and knowledge of conditions and facts pertaining to student life and thought which have been invaluable in promoting effective government and in bringing about a spirit of cooperation and friendly relationship. This is manifest even to those who make brief visits to Evansville College.
