Show AMANDA CHAMBERLIN R. STANLEY RHEES CLEONE LINDSAY Vice-President President Secretary-Treasurer WEBER STUDENT BODY WEBER is speedily passing from a small high school to a great college. The school year 1919-20 marks the period of transi- tion. This year the student body has grown from 550 members to over 930. Next year high school Freshmen will not be registered. Emphasis will then be placed upon the development of the college. To meet the present conditions and prepare for the success of the student-body in the future, several important revisions and amend- ments to our Constitution have been enacted by the Board of Control. They are as follows: ARTICLE III. SECTION 11. The Hoard of Control. THE PRESIDENT, VICE-PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY AND TREASURER OF THE STUDENT BODY, THE PRESIDENT OF EACH CLASS, THE PRESIDENT OF THE SCHOOL, ONE STUDENT AND ONE FACULTY MEMBER CHOSEN BY THESE OFFICERS, SHALL CONSTITUTE THE BOARD OF CONTROL, WHICH SHALL HAVE GENERAL SUPERVISION OVER ALL STUDENT BODY AFFAIRS. SECTION III. ALL QUESTIONS OF FINANCE OF THE STUDENT BODY RELATING BOTH TO REVENUES AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING ALL CLASSES, ORGANIZATIONS AND ALL STUDENT BODY PERIODICALS, SHALL BE UNDER THE CONTROL AND DIRECTION OF A CENTRAL TREASURY COMMISSION. These changes proved very successful the last two months of school. The student body has thus been able to give $700 to the gymnasium fund. The new standardized award system provided a different award for each year of service in the specified student-body activities. Our awards this year were the most elaborate ever given and have proved very popular. We have fostered more student-body activities this year than ever before in the history of our school. Their successes proved true enjoyment and substantial development to the entire student-body. We extend to the incoming officers a hearty wish for success and hope that they will stand by our present Constitution. VERA MALAN Vice-President OA JACOBS President LEROI BLAYLOCK Secretary-Treasurer THE PUBLIC SERVICE BUREAU THE most important movement in school life today is to inter- pret true education in terms of service and to establish a more vital relationship between the interests of the school and the practical life. The student seems to be absolutely separated from practical affairs during his period of training, therefore he is not properly fitted for duties of a citizen from the standpoint of every-day life. We break through the routine of school life and give the students opportunities to serve the public and thus apply their school training. These are the principles of the Public Service Bureau which has now completed its fifth successful year. Fully fifty students have co-operated with the Public Service Bureau in giving programs in most of the wards of the three stakes centering in Ogden. Not only have the students of the School of Music and representatives of the Dramatic Art Department helped, but the lead- ing students of the school have spoken in the campaigns for social betterment. The Public Service Bureau wishes to especially thank the Girls' Chorus, the Glee Club, and the Boys' Quartette for their work. While the organization has been very successful during the past year, yet it has not accomplished the things it might have done if the students had given it more of their attention. Many more of our students could give their services and receive good training by sup- porting the Public Service Bureau. Furthermore, the Bureau could be made one of the greatest forces for good in Ogden if given the united support of Weber students. |
