The Student Council was but recently begun in this school by a group of interested students who felt that there was a definite need for student government. Now in its second year of operation, the council has proved its worth. Its purpose is to bring together the various organizations at work in school so that a unified group will have the power and authority to take a stand on school problems. Adrian La Brot is president of the council which meets regularly on the first Monday of each month. Special meetings are called when the need arises. C.S.T.C. has long been proud of its health center, reputed to be one of the largest and most complete of its kind in any of the state teachers colleges. Dr. Fred A. Marrs, who has regular office hours at the college each day, is also city health officer. Miss Mary Neuberger who shares the work of the center with the doctor has been at C.S.T.C. since 1935. A lifelong resident of Stevens Point she took her training at St. Joseph's Hospital in Milwaukee, and was the fourth registered nurse in Portage County. Nurse Mary Neuberger 10 Dr. Fred A. Marrs

0{l ce Stall MISS ROLFSON In a small private office behind the main college office sits an energetic little woman who for several years has been an important behind-the-scenes figure at C.S.T.C. She is Miss Carolyn G. Rolfson, financial secretary of the college. All the business of the college training school, dormitory. and heating plant passes through her hands. Every order, whether it be for a box of paper clips or a new boiler for the heating plant, must be investigated and okayed by her before it goes to Madison. She gets out the payrolls each month for nearly a hundred people. Friends, both students and faculty, like to drop into her office for advice or just a talk. Outside of school hours she finds time to be Executive Secretary of the local Red Cross and to do a great deal of other volunteer war work. MISS SWALLOW Miss Marie Swallow who serves as training school secretary and assistant to Mr. Herrick in the placement division. is one of the most interesting members of the college staff. A former teacher herself, she finds the knowledge gleaned from her years in the classroom useful in her job of helping to keep things running smoothly in the Training school. Her busiest season is toward spring and during the summer when placement becomes the all-important task of the Training school. In spite of the demands of her job. she is an ardent war worker and is active in the Business and Professional Women's club of which she is state president. MRS. BENDER One of the persons to join the college staff quite recently is Mrs. Aria Bender who came to C.S.T.C. from Mondovi where she taught commercial work in the high school. Mrs. Bender holds forth in the record office where, among other things, she has the tremendous task of keeping active files on all students who have ever attended this college. She is a graduate of Gregg College in Chicago and has attended Whitewater and the University of Wisconsin. Mrs. Bender says that she likes the friendly feeling which exists on the campus between students and faculty. MISS FRIDAY For the first time in several years the post of assistant in the main office is held by a Stevens Point girl. Miss Antoinette Friday, a cousin of Frank Friday, a former student here, came last spring to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Miss Arline Mayville. Miss Friday who has always lived in Stevens Point is a graduate of St. Joseph's Academy here, where she majored in commercial work. Outside of school. Miss Friday's free time is absorbed by reading, work in dramatics, in which she is very much interested, and in volunteer war work. 9

Mesnhe U the College rf-GcuUy The men and women of the Central State Teachers College faculty are known far and wide for their friendliness, both to their associates and to students. They cooperate willingly in all matters pertaining to their various departments and to the entire school. This year, with the advent of the Army Air Corps Trainees, their job has become more difficult and more complex. Each faculty member, however, has met this challenge well and is carrying on in spite of the added load of teaching hours and responsibility. During the school year 1942-43, several familiar faces have been missing at faculty gatherings. Miss Syble Mason was granted a leave of absence from the library staff and is continuing her studies at Urbana. Illinois. Two other members of the college faculty, Edgar F. Pierson and Robert D. Morrison, are now serving in the United States Armed Forces. Although the familiar faces of old faculty friends have been missed this year, several new ones have won a place in our hearts. Miss Bess Gloyer, Carl O. Paulson, and George W. Berg have now become members of the CSTC faculty, and they have already become part of the life at Central State.
