Student CPC
Aids Cabinet
in Workshops
Cabinet Projects Council was
established last fall by All-Col
lege Cabinet to assist in admin
istrative duties and to lessen the
load of details carried by cabinet
members.
Many proposals brought before
cabinet are referred to CPC for
investigation. CPC committees
study the problem and make ree
-1 ommendations to cabinet. Before
CPC was established, it was neces
sary for the All-College president
I to name an investigating commit
tee, usually headed by a cabinet
member, to look into the problem.
CPC is a workshop where stu

be developed. Explanations of
