During this year the Student Council has been working on a set of traffic rules and parking regula- tions for students who have cars on campus.

The council recommended for student considera- tion the sponsoring of a refugee Hungarian student at Penn for the year 1957-58. 30 The Student Council, the organ for student government at William Penn College, is compos- ed of an elected representative from each of the four classes and the president of each class of the college.
