PAL, the Peer Adviso- , ;;.- was composed of involved, respectable Woodward students chosen by a special committee of Woodward students and teachers. Their most important project of the year was helping new students adjust to their new role as part of the Wood- ward community. At registration, the PAL members helped new students regis- ter and showed them around the campus. At Christmas time, the PAL and SGA members decorated the Student Lounge and took part in the annual Christmas party in honor of Woodward faculty, staff, and their families. Also during Christmas, members sung Christmas car- ols and presented gifts to the residents of the College Park Convalescent Home. Other activities for the year included visit- ing the nursing home again, helping the service clubs raise money for various or- ganizations, and assisting the wrestling team raise money for a hospitalized wres- tler.

S.G.A. The purpose of the Student Govern- ment Association is to represent the stu- dent body and to present their ideas to the Woodward administration. The SGA, by submitting bills to the administration, is a way through which students voice their opinions. The legislation of the student government association this year includ- ed bills working toward greater Senior privileges, the suggesting of possible uni- form changes, attempting to make Gold and Silver Eagle awards cumulative and trying to boost school spirit. Members of the S.G.A. also worked with the Parents Club as part of the standing committees. Together, the two groups reviewed var- ious aspects of Woodward life in order to suggest needed improvements. The Student Government Association also participated in numerous activities during the 1980-81 school year. Besides enacting legislation, members also partici- pated in collecting money during Yellow Ribbon Day, helping PAL with its Christ- mas activities, and holding an exchange program with members of SGA at Arling- ton School.

Because they are students themselves, the Honor Council understands the pressures and problems of students and is able to deal fairly yet firmly with cases brought before the council. The Honor Council deals with cases of cheating, lying, stealing, and vandalism and may impose punishments of demerits and detentions or reccoment dismissal to the administration. The 12th grade representatives were Marya Nuss, Paul Raines, Mike Scarboro, and Howard Delashmit. Grade eleven re- presentatives were. Tommy Holt and Diane Dickman.
