All Howard Payne students
are looking forward to a suc-
cessful year, but success won't
just happen. It will have to be
planned and worked for by
each student
Doug Underbill, President of
the Howard Payne Student As-
sociation, is promoting the idea
of active student participation
in their college government
"We anticipate this to be a suc-
cessful year, and we ask stu-
dents to take more interest in
their own affairs and the affairs
of the school. We are mature
young adults who are capable of
handling our own problems
without bothering the Adminis-
tration," says President Under-
bill,
According to President Under-
bill, the major project of the
Student Association this year
will be the installation of the
new Student Supreme Court
The court, which has been tp-
proved by both the administra-
tion and the students, will have
full authority in all cases of stu-
dent misconduct except those
involving serious moral prob-
lems.
The Supreme Court will con-
sist of a Chief Justice, appoint-
ed by the president, for four As-
sociate Justices, appointed! by
the Chief Justice. "The court
will accept appeals from the
Men's and Women's Dormitory
Councils, «nd it will give the
students the opportunity to
govern themselves like adults,"
states President Underbill.
This year the Student Senate,
the representative body of the
Student Association, is inviting
all students to come and sit in
the gallery. There will be a
special time after the senate
meeting for students to express
their viewsi Students are always
invited to talk to their officers
and! remember the government
is following an "open door."
policy this year, says President
Underbill.
Another new facility which is
under the authority of the stu-
dent government is the "Bee-
Hive," the new student recrea-
tion center. Tenative rules for
the use of the center have been
drawn up and will be approved
at the first senate meeting, Sept.
22.
Because upkeep of the recrea-
tion center is the responsibility
of the senate, a way will have
to be found to finance it The
senate may be able to avoid
charging the students If every-
one who uses the center will
treat the equipment carefully
and! keep replacement costs
down.
President Underbill states
that he has already been im-
pressed! with the attitude and
spirit of all students on the
campus and he hopes all stu-
dents will support f^esehpol
and continue the friendly at-
titude that Howard Payne is
noted for.
