Sjielley Howard Young Robert Niedner Council men-at-Large 1 THE liurpose of the S. G. A. is to inculcate and foster campus tradition and regulations which will aid the Iniversit - of Missouri not only to retain the hold upon the memories of its alumni, hut to further increase its far-reaching influence; to correlate and suj ervise the student efforts of the various schools, colleges, and organizations; to impress upon the State of Missouri the worthiness of support of this institution, and to instill, demand, and maintain lo alty to the ni ■ersity of Missouri standards. The student council, legislative department of the Student Govern- ment Association, is composed of the president, vice-jiresident, and secre- tary-treasurer of the University at large, a representative from each of the schools of the University, and three representatives elected at large from the student body. General campus activities, dances, and assessments are given under the direct management of this body. The council appro- priates, provides for and authorizes disbursements of all the Student Asso- ciation funds. The Student Government Association owns and is financially responsible for the Missouri Student; the Student Council sponsors the Savitar, and selects the Editor-in-Chief, Business Manager, and two asso- ciate editors from the nominees submitted to the Council by the Savitar Board.

Shadoivs and Reflections £ ' ' . DEAN OF WOMEN OFFICERS W. S. G. A. Ruth Hawkixs President Marie iMatassarin Vice-President Mary ' irc;inia Edmistox Secretary Selma Osterman Treasurer npHE campus acti ity program is a very important part of college life. It is that inval uable part of education that teaches b} ' learning to do. It is of value too l)ecause campus activities are a great deal like life in the big outside world toward which all student eyes turn hopefulh ' and almost im- patiently. Campus activities give unusually good training in the art of managing people. No more useful skill than this can be ac- quired. It is one of the most valuable assets of personality. Campus activities develop initiative, resourcefulness, and judg- ment. They enrich personal contacts and increase friendships. Of all the kinds of activities existing on the modern campus the field of publications has perhaps the most highly valued opportunities. Mrs. Bessie Leach Priddy Dean of Women Publications have the value of perma- nence in their products. In the second place they cultivate both literary and artistic abilit -. In the third place the ' demand a high order of executive ability and in the fourth place they offer the worker a possi- bility of building up a strong loyalty to the institution. Without doubt the Inixersit)- yearbook is a sort of climax of efTort in the alucd publication field. To its staff come many returns. The most valuable of its returns is the permanent value of its contribution. The Savitar of 1933-4 will last while the institution lasts. Its jMcture of campus life is therefore ver - important, its contribution most significant. Pate 21
