CONSUL AWARDEES Consul Awards are presented to the twelve law students who are judged to have made the most outstanding contributions to the Law School community through participation in extra-curricular activities. The awards were presented this year for the first time and arc to be presented annually. Thirteen students, rather than twelve, were chosen this year because the selection committee felt that the contributions of several students were too nearly equal to permit any distinction between them. The selection was made by a committee which reflected the viewpoints of a wide cross-section of the student body and whose members arc individually familiar with most, possibly all, activities carried on at the Law School and the students participating in such activities. Committee members for 1954 were Jim O’Leary, magister of Phi Delta Phi; Luther Nelson, justice of Phi Alpha Delta; Pat Everitt, praetor urbanus of The Praetors; Argentina C ronfel, registrar of Kappa Beta Pi; Jack Sargent, representing Delta Theta Phi, and ChuckCabaniss, editor of The Peregrinus. Members of the committee are not eligible for selection, and hence no senior students were included on the committee. Committee members c o n s i d e r not merely the holding of an office or membership in an organization, but attempt to evaluate the accomplishments of the student so participating and the benefit others derive from his participation. Scholarship is considered only as it may be evidenced through participation in extra-curricular activities, such as Texas Law Review staff positions, which are determined partially by scholastic achievement.
