m The Qollege 'Board of Qontrol A step, noi least in imi’ori ance, toward the realization of college ideals in Weber has been rhc establishment and operation during the year 1922-23 of an exclusively college Board of Control. At the opening of the fall term, high school and college student officers met together as members of a single Board of Control, and attempted to effect an efficient working unit for the regulation of finance and other items of interest to both high school and college students’ activities. I lowever, it soon be- came desirable to separate the two factions, high school and college, and allow each to regulate the affairs pertaining to itself. Consequently, there came into existence a body known as the Board of Control of the Associated Students of Weber College. This Board did not acquire a constitution for some time after its establishment be- cause it was felt that rapidly changing conditions within the institution would be more than apt to nullify any set of laws or regulations that might be drawn up. Toward the end of the school year, however, when the future began to shape itself more definitely and when a policy might be pursued with equanimity, a constitu- tion was made and approved for the use of this and future boards. Although the matters .discussed on Board of Control this year have not been very weighty nor the effect very consequential, it has always been customary to give each project a thorough consideration before voting to accept it. It cannot lie said of this year’s Board that it failed in anything it undertook to accomplish. Although the college student body of this year has been small in numbers, as compared with other student associations, the Board has successful!) planned and carried our activities pertaining, it would seem, only to larger institutions than that of Weber College. The members of the Board of Control have the satisfaction of knowing that they have established a precedent which is likely to remain in the halls of Weber for many vears. The High School Board of Qontrol The Board ok Control, a representative hotly to which much legislative and ex- ecutive work is entrusted, has this year accomplished many things worthy of men- tion. I or the first time in our history the Student Association has taken control of punishing those who have broken its rules. As a consequence of this policy, offenders have been few. In addition, the Board has had charge of all student affairs, such as public speak- ing, dramatics, school opera, dances and athletic contests. Because of the economical way in which these matters have been handled, the Board was able to purchase pins for all our former student body presidents. But while the Board has been primarily a business organization, it has not en- tirely neglected the social side of its existence. The members, consisting of President Aaron Tracy, Harvey Taylor, Lawrence Budge, Nan Emmett, David Kennedy, Sherman Couch, Edwin Wood and Mark Bailiff, have enjoyed two delightful ban- quets this season. The wish of the last 1 ligh School Board is that the future College Board will work with the same unity and earnestness as has the 1922-23 High School Board. 24
