FT] I A NTF ' Finance Board is that audacious body that all business managers of publica- r li .i L JL tions, treasurers of student organizations have to face with budgets in their trembling D n A n Tl hands at the first of the school year. To their surprise they find this group of people Jj U AliiJ intuitive and generous (as the funds permit). Of course, for the B. M. ' s it ' s neces- sary to be on the up and up where and when the money is going. BUT it ' s the duty of the Finance Board to see to that and make allocations accordingly HDNDH BOARD MaJb2ii » t» A vi As a result of the proposal of the establishment of the honor system at the college, the Honor Board has an increased importance in our campus life. W. C. has never had the complete honor code although there has always been a great amount of our con- duct left to our integrity. At present the Honor Board considers cases of academic dis- honesty The Board is made up of three people from the Judy Board appointed by the Student Government President and three faculty members appointed by Dr. Jackson.

U fwc Uwifci . STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION The one unit of organization in which every girl at W. C. plays on important part is the Student Govern- ment Association. The S. G. touches every phase of college life; but most important of all, the Student Government stands for democracy which is an inte- gral part of Women ' s College. The officers for 1940-41 of this association were chosen by Australian ballot in May of 1940. A mass meeting (attendarce required!) was held at which time the new officers and house presidents were sworn in, and the entire student body renewed its oath to uphold the principles of the Student Govern- ment. For the remainder of the school year, the new officers under the experienced guidance of the old began to take over the controls of the complicated machinery of S. G. In a coordinated system the Judy Board handles coses and reviews Hall Board decisions; the Legisla- ture considers and works out rule changes to be made; the social chairman, elected by the Legisla- ture lays plans for the new program. In order to gain ideas and contribute to other schools, delegates were sent to the State Conference at Chapel Hill and to the Southern Conference at New Orleans. Before September brought a fresh crop of new students, a conference was held of the Student Gov- ernment officers and the campus leaders to dis- cuss problems of the last school year and necessary changes for the coming year. Orientation week which follows isn ' t as bad as it sounds. During this period the Freshmen become acquainted with their port in Student Government through Blue Book tests and other means. Football season brings all three parts of the Uni- versity — Carolina, State, and W. C. — together on Greater University Day. Carolina and State root in the mud (it always rains) for a pig-skin victory while W. C. overflows the grandstand. We might have a blue or a red ribbon on our chrysanthemum, but in either case we ARE proud. As this goes to press, the campus is rift with PROS and CONS of The proposed honor system by the Stu- dent Government.
