The Women ' s Self Government Association Is the stu- dent governing body for all women students in the Uni- versity. With the Men ' s Council, it makes up the Stu- dents Association. Although joined for matters relating to both men and women students, the two groups are entirely independent of each other in matters relating only to their own constituencies. The membership of the group includes the Executive Board made up of the four officers, who are selected in an open election, Representatives from a number of girls ' organizations, five Members-at-Large selected by the Ex- ecutive Board and the Representatives, and a Judicial Board selected by the Executive Board, the Representa- tives and the Members-at-Large. The members of the W. S. G. A. annually become acquainted with more than four hundred new girls on the campus through teas, informal parties, and co-ed balls given during the year. They reach all Freshmen and upperclassmen who are on our campus for the first time. Each semester the Association gives a scholarship ban- quet for non-sorority women, at which time two loving cups are awarded, one to the organized house with the highest average, and one to the dormitory with the highest average.

Before coming to the University of Oklahoma, he served as Dean of Men at Grlnnell College. DEAN JAMES F. FINDLAY THE OFFICE OF THE DEAN OF MEN Professor M. L. Wardell occupied the first po- sition as Dean of Men at the University of Okla- homa. The office was first created in 1928 and since then has assumed importance and responsi- bility and has certainly proved its worth as a de- partment of contact, guidance, and help to the men of the University. This office is responsible for the housing of men students, is the point of clearance for Uni- versity social affairs, and offers its services to parents, faculty, and students In the Interpreta- tion of regulations as they affect men on the campus. The latest duty to be assumed by this office Is the supervision of fraternity rush. The Dean of Men has charge of the filing and keep- ing of all date cards and supervises the assem- blies of men going through rush and Is the inter- mediary In all problems arising between frater- nities and rushees. The assumption of the many new functions and activities of the office of the Dean of Men is typical of the increasing importance and popu- larity of this now indispensable department of the University. In its present capacity this department has done much to stabilize work In scholarship and social activities of all students and Is surely a credit to the University. During past years this organization has devolved the development of a personnel record for all Freshmen Including a summary of the scholastic achievement of each Individual, his outside activities, a fairly large sampling of personal ratings on him, and certain personal and vocational Information. During the past year Dean FIndlay has fostered an Independent Men ' s Association for non-fra- ternity men. Dean FIndlay realizes the necessity of such an organization for men of high character who are not affiliated with any Greek-letter or- der. This is only one of the many beneficial organizations he has been able to create for men students on the campus. Pdq 14
