here's the Formula lt;or Student Action q We had the UN Institute now what ? We sat for a week digesting leas about the need for recognizing the moral law. Here is the method f using this newly acquired energy for student action. Each student has a special interest which is developed in a club lt;if which she may belong. Her conception of student action is colored y her special field. The members of the Laetare club will want to use soap and elbow rease in the drama, and those of Writers, Inc. will want to work on a, romoting decent literature. Each student will bring her suggestion to her club. There are 112 students, so there should be 1112 suggestions. 2 The club president will present these ideas to the Club Coordina- on Board. The practicality of college-wide participation in these oi rojects will be discussed by the Board and brought before the Faculty nd the SAC, who will vote on them. The Speaker's Bureau is an example of an all-college function, nder the jurisdiction of the Executive Board but conducted by the il udents. One student has an idea; it is polished by her own club and by the oordination Board, approved by the Executive committee, and carried rough by all the students. This is the framework. The building depends on you and you and de other 1110. This Is It: STUDENT IDEAS CLUBS CLUB COORDINATION BOARD EXECUTIVE BOARD FACULTY AND SAC I. F. C. C. S. SPEAKERS BOARD STUDENT ACTION Students Suggest Temporary Committee To Contact NFCCS Follow-Up Plans Await Approval of Student Body To implement with positive action the principles and resolutions which evolved during October's Institute for Study of the United Nations Charter, the Student Activities Council and in terested students suggest a temporary committee to apply for admission of the College to the National Federation of Catholic College Students. Members of the committee, who are to be selected by the student body, ac cording to the suggestion, will work until May election-time with the intra- college executive board and the new Club Coordination Board, headed by senior Regina Bess. First nominations for committee members were made on Nov. 7 at an in formal meeting which was a follow-up to the S.A.C.-student assembly for peace action two days before. Offices open for nomination are a senior delegate, to be chosen from the senior class; a senior alternate, from the junior class; a junior delegate, from the sophomore class; a junior alternate, from the freshman class. A student speakers' bureau, also dis cussed at the meeting, would send trained speakers on a city-wide club and school circuit. All resolutions and nominations made at the Nov. 7 meeting were placed before the student body for changes, additions, and approval. Enjoy Thanksgiving But Don't Forget Triple-Cut Days Classes close for the Thanksgiving holiday at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 27. They will reopen at 9 a.m. on Mon day, Dec. 2. With sincere wishes for a Happy Thanksgiving goes a reminder that stu dents must not let the prospect of four days of fun, feasting, and, most im portant of all, giving thanks, erase from their memories the fact that Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 26 and 27, and Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 2 and 3, as boundaries of an extended school vacation, arc triple-cut days.
