Here are a few ainsWiers.• First, students who belong to the councils feel ,chat they do not have important enough positions student government, and it has Veen knoWn ;that many of the councils, during the meetings, could never transact any official business be cause there were not enough members present to ,:onstitute a quorum. These students an. right, in one respect. School t:ouncils do not have an important pOsitiOn, as ;';hey now stand, in student government. But, on the other hand, 'this has been the fault of the .I;ouncil members. They attempt no reform; they no evil because their eyes are closed; they pass no helpful legislation to . improve school fa i:;ultY and student relationshiPs because they show v.o interest; and, like ducks in a mill pond, 'they lAvirl around in a never ending rut. They are willing to shift the brunt of blame upon the coun- L.;il president. What do school councils do? So far, all that einey haVe shown is an empty hand. What pur i)oses are they to fulfill? What improvement Cave they made and what obligations have they met? We would say none. We have seen none. The school council, as a representative unit in All-College Cabinet, is needed. This is one ;uedium in which all the problems of students in itheir curricula and student-faculty relations can Ibe ironed out. However, the school councils have acted as that iron; instead, they degenerated ti t i.O a medium which has no expression, no plan, ,;mrpose. call a challenge to these groups to show , v/11,1 , . they have done.
