The Student Council The Student Council is the principal channel for interchange of constructive ideas for im- provement of the school. It furnishes a fine opportunity for each class to become aware of the activities and problems of its brother classes. The Council often has members of four vear tenure who are con ersanl with school affairs of se en consecutive classes. A readilv available first-hand source of information is thus afforded. Perhaps of even greater importance, this con- linuitv provides a perspecti e which acts as a steadying force upon individual class policies. The membership consists of twelve students, nanielv. the Class President and two representa- tives from each of the respecti e school vears. All are chosen by the separate classes in annual elections. The President of the Council is a member of the Junior Class who has been elected by his class for that position. The Secretary is a member of the Freshman Class. A concrete manifestation of the close coopera- tion between students and faculty is the annual Student Council-Faculty Dinner held in the Spring. The Dean. Department Heads. Division Heads, and the Council members attend this function. Each class is invited to express class opinions as gathered in a survey of its individual students. They may take the form of praise or of constructive criticism. The facult in turn may reply to the specific suggestions if it so chooses. It is a source of pride to all present to see personal feelings submerged in a sincere effort to promote school welfare. It is felt that progressive and cooperative ventures such as these work best to achieve more efficient and harmonious medical education. Osteen, ! ataro. Leighton.
