Elliott Hall was designed to fulfill the growing need of a place on campus where our social activities could be inte- grated. Under the direction of the council, we hope to build a well-balanced and varied social program which will meet the individual needs of every girl on campus, be they social or cultural. Therefore, the program is flexible, depending on the interests of the students here now and those who will come in the future. Elliott Hall Council exists to function as the governing body of Elliott Hall. The council consists of the President oi Elliott Hall, as chairman of the council, the Hall representa tives, and one representative from the Town Students ' As sociation. The faculty director, her assistant, two counselors and three faculty members act as advisers. This board o: directors and the representative group on campus are the administrative group, a deliberative body. They review all plans of the seven Committees before they are put into effect and act as the official hostesses for Elliott Hall. All activities center around seven committees. The Fine Arts Committee, which is composed of students interested in drama, dance, writing, and music, sponsors discussions and lectures on the fine arts, art exhibits, concerts, and a student glee club. The Student-Faculty Social Committee is created for the purpose of the furtherance of better faculty-student relationships on an informal basis. Their year has been com- posed of teas, open houses, and a square dance. They are in charge of any social function on campus to which the faculty is invited. The Publicity Committee publicizes all Elliott Hall functions and edits Here ' s How, a freshman brochure. The Poster Committee makes posters for all Elliott Hall functions
