TN ¥ First Row: Church, Corson, Schwartz. Second Row: Cooley, McVey. The Student Librasy Committee, formed in 1958, entertains suggestions from the student body concerning the affairs 4nd operation of the Law School Library. Upon due consjderation, these suggestions may be forwarded to the Faculty Library Committee as recommendations for alteration or modification of the present Library rules or regu- lations. In such a manner and with the cooperation of the Librarian and the financial assistance of the Delta Theta Phi Book Exchange, the Committee successfully moved the magazines and newspapers from the Library to the Student Lounge in 1959. The Student Library Committee attempts to familiarize the students with the Library's rules and regulations; it also strives to seek adherence to and enforcement of such rules and regulations. Abuses of Library privileges are either handled by the Committee or recommendations are made to the Faculty Library Committee, the Honor Committee, or the Dean of the Law School for appropriate action.

SHEMET CSP RA ER WE TEED TT) PORTE SOE STUDENT CURRICULUM COMMITTEE . Left: McCamic, Linehan, J. Walker, Crosskey, Sander, Grattan, Hiden, Glascock, M. Purcell, Izlar. Absent: Havens, Thagard. Under the leadership of Bill Izlar, the Student Curriculum Committee has worked closely with the faculty in ascertaining the desires of the student body in regard to the law school curriculum. For the second successive year, examinations for third year students were moved up during the Spring Term so that all bar review obligations could be met. New York Procedure, an annual demand of the student body, provided both the committee and the faculty with many “headaches.” Again, it was impossible to secure a competent instructor so that the planned addition to the curriculum had to be dropped for at least another year. Probably the most important aspect of the committee’s job was to help Assistant Dean Lindsey Cowen work out term schedules with the least possible amount of con- flict. The work of the committee in this area was in large part instrumental for the few number of major course or examination conflicts during the two most recent semesters.
