. -v....-...-.4.. xxxxxxxxxuuuxuxxu qu DEAN OF STUDENTS H. H. KUMNICK TRADITIONALLY, the Dean of Students is a member of the admin- istrative staff, Who has charge of student activities, social matters, and matters of conduct and diseiplinef, In reality he is the u:uirriinistrative odd- job man,, of the campus. His duties are multitudinous and multifarious. The files of our office represent a Wide range of campus activities. The University has charged our oflice especially with responsibility for the moral and religious development of the student. As a consequence our efforts extend to almost every center of human relationship on the campus, includ- ing residence supervision, dormitory welfare, Classroom work in religion, chapel services, Walther League activities, employment aid, pastoral calls, contact with the home, supervision of social activities, counselling of stu- dents in difficulty. , . The average person thinks of a college dean as a disciplinarian and an en- forcer of college regulations pertaining to student conduct. But few college administrators today exercise the disciplinarian functions of their office in terms of punishment. Discipline becomes more and more a matter of under- standing the maladjusted student and helping him to discover himself. The better one knows the individual student the easier it is to be of service to him. The policy of our office has always been to deal With all our students in the spirit of Christian love.

uiuiunuuuxnnuxxut THE RECORD AHLBRAND, KASE, CHRISTOPHER, MILLER, SAEGER, GEORGE NUECHTERLEIN, LICHTSINN, NIERMAN, STRUTZ, NATH, CIECIERSKI THE power of student government is vested in two bodies, the Executive Board and the Student Council itself. The Executive Board comprises the i four officers of the Council and the presidents of the college tribunals. The president of the university, the business manager, the dean of administration, D and the dean of students are non-Voting eX-ofhcio members. The Council is ' composed of the four officers elected by popular vote, and representatives i from the four colleges chosen by their respective colleges. I The Student Council since its organization in 1930 has made definite ad- vancement in student government. This year the Council was especially inter- ested in revising and clarifying the constitution. A new by-law was adopted t which provides for the establishment of a Dramatic Guild whose function it is to control all dramatic productions given at the university. r. The problem of centralizing the treasury of the Student Council has also been very seriously discussed. A by-law was constructed and read to the Council, but sent back to the constitution committee for revision. HIIHIIH Since the Student Council was established to represent student opinion, a ' dehnite attempt was made this year to flnd out what the opinions of the students were. This attempt was made through the monthly open forums. The opinions expressed by the students were referred back to the Council for consideration. This year the entertainment fee was in Control of the Student Council. During the first semester, the entertainment committee was able to sponsor a very successful lecture by Lowell Thomas, Valparaiso alumnus. Plans for the second semester were hindered because of financial situations. However, the Council felt that at least attempts had been made to give the student body ,gIVHHIHI'lIIIIlHIll'llH!HHHHHIH'IHIHIUHIHHIHIHHHHHHH Mi some worthwhile entertainment for their lecture fee. An Office has been acquired in the Administration building. It is the plan of the Council to establish regular oiflce hours so that all negotiations With them can be made directly from a central ofhce. f' 27
