Each year the S.G.A. gets a limited
budged from University Park which they
in tern use to apportion to clubs on
campus. This is time constming, and
demands that each organization shall
submit a budget. Then some research
is done to see of the budgets are fair,
and that expenses are not padded. They
each budget must be approved by the
total S.G.A.
S.G.A. recently ruled that each
organization must sponsor some activ
ity once each term, or risk suspen
sion of its charter. Suspension
makes the club ineligible for S.G.A.
money. This ruling was an attempt
to keep clubs active, - and to hope that
there would be more activities on cam
pus as a result. The activity can be
merely a speaker, or a jemmy, or any
thing. This is no hardship, because
even a small organization like Radio
Club could sponsor an hour in which
they would have open house to explain
their activity to other students.
It is usually S.G.A. members work
ing at the ticket desk before the
foreign films.
There is a committee now in S.G.A
which is investigating future uses of
Erie Hall. Next year all the recrea
tional things will be in the new study
and learning center. Erie Hall will
then be revamied for some sort of
student use.
S.G.A. has investigated the work
ings of the ski tow in back of the OB
Building, and the tow is now in use.
Anyone desiring to use it can see
Mr. Yartz about it.
S.G.A. sees that someone is there
to exchange used books at the beginnings
of each new term. This year the boat
exchange was handled by the Keystone
Honor Society.
A committee now is working on
scholarships and their possible
sources of funds. Athletic scho
larships in particular are the
object of research, and the money
will probably come from parking
ticket money, under the regulation
of S.G.A. S.G.A. has put in many
hours in conference and discussion
trying to see that the sbholarship
program is well set up.
In addition to these things,
each S.G.A. member must work in
Erie Ball for two or three periods
a week, and attend the weekly S.G.A.
meeting. Two secretaries and a
Treasurer are kept very busy, and .
the President, Vice-presidett and an
insurance representative from S.G.A.
are spending a lot of hours doing
their best.
Any suggestions? Came to an S.G.A.
meeting and tell it.
KEYSTONE HONOR SOCIETY
The Keystone Society, consisting of
Jeff Ddsend, Jan Puzar, and Carol
De Arment, have worked many hours
processing student records fo see who
is eligible for the Society. These
three must go through every student's
record to see who hos a 2.5 grade point
average or better. Then those
who are most active in student
activities will be selected.
Keystone is not obligated to induct
anyone, even though it has recently
been under attack by those who would
like to get in.
The paper work is now being done
in a long tedious process, that ironic
ally falls on those who were selected
because they are busy in other clubs.
Inductions will take place soon.
