YL Lett Julius Speaks President Tells SGA Purposes During the past week, a good many of you have heard me speak about the mechanics of Student Government and how it operates. Now, I should like to explain why it operates. In other words. I'd like to con sider the role that student govern ment plays in the hotel education al process. The purpose of the Student Government Association, as stated by its constitution is as follows: "The purposes of SGA shall be to provide representative self government for the student body and protect the students interests, education, culture and general welfare." However, I am of the opinion that student government serves an even more important purpose. It tends to instill a sense of re sponsibility in those who par ticipate in it. Whether a student be associated with the Executive, Legislative, or Judicial branch, he soon learns that his is a job that must be taken seriously. This in culcation of a sense of responsi bility is an important part of the transition from student to adult citizen. Student government also fills a! gap which exists in our college education. It is similar to a prac tical course in political science. We do have, or course, excellent courses in political science here at Penn Stale. However, they merely teach the subject matter without giving students an oppor tunity to practice it for them selves, This is not the fault of the course or the professor. It is mere ly a deficiency which is inherent in any class of this nature. It is generally agreed, I think, that one learns belter by doing rather than just hearing. Since student government allows stu dents to practice what they learn, it is valuable in an educational A famous Greek named Dio genes once said, "The founda tion of every state is the educa tion of its youth" Student gov ernment adds just one more stone lo this important foundation. When considering the role of student government, we cannot overlook its more obvious func representa- f" —ji Jj[ * n I K# Ihe six trained operators are % & trained hair ?s■ colorists at the ; i Uoffue hj.

The Student Government Associa tion acts as a liaison between ihe students and the administration. It provides a voice for the many mouths of the student body. The accomplishments of student government are many. In the past | five years student government has: ~ • Instituted ihe Artist Series • Instituted the- University Lee- lure Series • Brought Student Insurance to the University • Suggested ideas for ihe origi nal construction of ihe Heizel Union Building • Sponsored ihe Week program Applications for positions in Student Government are now available at ihe Heizel Union Building desk. Interviews will be held in approximately two weeks. 22 Students to Serve On Jr. Advisory Board Students who will serve on the Junior Class Advisory Board this semester are Arthur Schneider, James Nelligan, Sara Phillips, Judy Moore, Eugene Raiford, Richard Haber, Stephen Brown, Abraham Isenberg, Beverly Cas ella, David Stang, Mary Lou Hill, Jacqueline Leavitt, Jane Taylor, Donald Clagett, James Ettleson, Janet Callaway, Catherine Craig, Doris Gustafson, Rhoberta Engle bnnk, David Kiser, Ruth Noble and Robeit Umstead.
