VTLTTY -r.,-------r-:11:e:,,-.-.., ..., , ., . Qronotocneague Ebe Stuoenfs Self Government 'Association BCUT ten years ago the students at Vlfilson College decided that they were willing to take on them- selves the responsibility of self-government. Act- 'no' in accordance with this, certain powers which 1 an hitherto the faculty had exercised were turned over by - -' t 't. them to the student body, and a charter was given o 1 These powers and this charter have never been taken away and more powers have been added until now the 3 rights of our association involve almost as many phases of college activities as those of any undergraduate associ- ation in American colleges for women. The executive powers of the association are in theory, vested in every member of the association. But the difli- culty of putting in practice such a theory has made it ad- visable to give those powers particularly to the executive ard, which is composed of the president and vice presi- dent of students, one member of the Senior class and two members of both the Junior and the Sophomore classes. This board has full executive control of all matters per- taining to the powers which have been granted to the as b o sociation. - The officers of the association are chosen by the stu- dent body in May and serve for one year unless disquali- fied by marks or conduct. The president and vice presi- dent are Seniors, the secretary and treasurer Juniors. The house presidents who have charge over the maintenance of quiet in the dormitories are also chosen by the members of the association. They, five in number, serve for one semester only. The proctors, who are under the house presidents and are to see that quiet is maintained in their Page Twenty-four own corridors, are appointed by the executive board. They serve for one term. The house presidents are held directly responsible for the order in their dormitories. They must report all violations of rules to the executive board. The legislative power is vested in the association at utive board has only such power as the association grants it. The action of the association in mak- ing or revising laws must be in accord with the charter of the association which provides for co-operation between students and faculty. These actions must be reported im- resident of the college and the faculty. 01ll'l'ECCl to the executive board. large, and the exec mediately to the p All judicial powers are gt By it all offenses are tried, and punishments decided. ln trying cases where the honor pledge has been broken, the president of the Freshman class becomes a member of the executive board. This is the bare skeleton of the system of the associa- tion. The real association consists of much this. The spirit of each girl in college is a big part of it. Nothing can be accomplished unless it is in harmony with the highest aim of the association. At present too much stress is laid on the executive board, house presidents and proctors, too little on the responsibility each girl takes on l 1 doe. But we are founders of the to develop more than herself when she signs the ionor p e g coming each year nearer to the aim of the association for self-government, which was character and individual responsibity, to strengthen the bond between students and faculty, and to to the highest interests of the college. increase loyalty
