Show The Associated Women Students are always up to something for the betterment, entertainment, or enlightenment of Weber women. At the moment it appears to be entertainment, since you can't call stuff like that betterment or enlightenment. Activities sponsored by A. W. S. include such institutions, traditional and special affairs. Whatever the affair is, they enjoy it. Their said enjoyment is directly contradictory to the time- honored belief among the more egotistical male element that girls only come to college to be near the boys. The apparent truth is that they come to college also to be near other girls- besides the educational angle which still persists in the more old-fashioned theories. Whatever it is they come for, they get. That is the one truth we can be sure of, for they are more consistently active than anybody else in the school-except, perhaps, the men, whose possible failure to excel the women can be attributed to less intense organization.
