Elected every spring, with students divided into constituencies according to degree programmes, the members of Council internally elect their membership to the position of Commissioners and Committee Chairmen. In addition to the constituency elected members, the Council has a President and Vice-President elected by a cross-campus vote. The 4 College Presidents as ex-officio members round out the 23 member Council. However, the responsibility for improving this University lies with each and every one of its members - yes, even every freshman student. The total success of student government and any other student organization lwhether it be social or academicl is dependent upon involvement and participation. Given that education is the self-realization of one's self and one's society and how an individual copes with his environment, it follows that participation in activities outside the classroom is a necessary and positive factor in one's education.

Union Council The two achievements of which the '68-'69 Union Council was perhaps most proud were the poet-in-residence program and Look-In '69. Q 95' F From January until April, Irving Layton lectured, discussed, argued, taught and learned at the University of Guelph. This was the first Canadian author-in-residence program to be initiated and sponsored by students. , i P li S I N ffl M A . , On February 12, all normal academic routine halted and the university examined its role and functions in a series of formal and informal discussions. The positive results of Look-In '69 are reflected in the decision to hold another day of self-analysis in 1970. NEWS FLASH - Chief Martens and his force of University Police were driven back by brick-throwing students as the men in blue attempted to recapture the student held administration office. A likely headline in The Ontarion? I think not. Why? The concept of University as a community of scholars is still held as an ideal by members of this campus - students, faculty and administrative staff. Significant progress has been made in recognizing student rights within the University of Guelph commu nity. There are numerous changes which must yet occur, but given the present progressive attitude of faculty and Administration land an involved student bodyl it appears that violence will not be necessary to achieve an educational revolution. Union Council, composed of students, and representing students, has as its prime objective the evolving of an optimum environment for an individual to educate himself. lt is concerned with not only the composition of the curriculum and the techniques of classroom education, but also with the social and cultural atmosphere on the campus. 148 ,

Gone are the days of the Sports section, Clubs and Societies section etc. Instead we have tried to achieve an integrated book giving an overall picture of life at the U. of G. The adoption of a completely new format required a great deal of effort and co-operation among all the members on the Libranni staff. Special mention must go to Dave Cartledge who developed the theme of the Libranni '69, All quotes used were from Hugh lVlacLennan's Two Solitudes . Lynn Thompson, our grad editor, was the person responsible for seeing that each graduating student obtained a sitting with the photographer. Eva Kwiatkowski, Bonni lVlcCulIough, and Karen Kennedy were each responsible for putting together a semester section. Arranging camera coverage of events and requisitioning prints was the task which befell Peter Tucker Ieditor-in-chief Libranni '7Ol. Ken Holyk of the Photo-Directorate spent a great deal of his free time in the darkroom attempting the impossible task of meeting all the staff's picture demands. Our very capable sports editors were Jerry Organ and Corine Elliott. Susan Friend, secretary: and Bob anderson, treasurer, worked very hard to keep everything in proper order. Other members of our staff were: SHEILA lVlcCUNE BETTY SCHOLAR GEORGE BISHOP MARTIN VERBEEK BRUCE lVlacLEAN SANDRA NETHERY GABE ANKELI TED OSTROSKI BRYAN JONES JEAN ROBERTS Admission to the staff is open to all. We would especially like to attrack Arts students as this is the group whose absence is most obvious and whose talents would greatly aid in production of a superior book.
