2:2 I GL, . ' .'a1'4sv,s:'BA 4 - '41, xx 1 A a Phi Alpha Kappa is unique among the fraternities at Michigan, It is the only graduate social fraternity on campus, numbering among its members men representing various schools, The fields include dentistry, engineering, architecture, social work, law, and with the heaviest concentration in medicine. Located at l0l0 E. Ann, the house is centrally located near hospitals, libraries and classrooms. With many professions represented, interests and accom- plishments cover a wide area. To bolster the understanding of medicine, the meds have initiated a program of informal sessions, attempting to explain what medicine is and demonstrate some of the procedures used in medical practice. Social life is an important part of our fraternity. Parties are not infrequent, and bull sessions are featured every night. Athletics are not forgotten as the fraternity competes in a complete schedule of events. Its softball team is the scourge of the professional league. With its fine accomodations and stimulating environment, Phi Alpha Kappa is a wonderful place to live and work. Carl Van Appledorn '65 Medical Members o Plii Alpha Kappa First Row: H. DeIVIaagd, J.

Student Council Student Council, being an organization in its infancy, has had many growing pains to overcome in its four year history, The Council, an organization of class officers and mentors, has monthly meetings. Some of the problems discussed have been student parking, library loans, tape recording of lectures, free prescription drugs for medical students and correlating class opinions with administrative changes and problems. As well as being presidents of their classes, Council vice-president Dick Erbe, secretary Art Fleming, and treasurer Bill Stawski have contributed much to Student Council success in communication between classes, faculty and administration. Doctor Wolfman, the Dean's representative and general overseer of Student Council, also deserves a word of thanks. The Student Council is already looking forward to next year's problems, Philip Kuebbeler, '63, President 157
