The newly elected SGA officers
of Salem C. have been really busy
since elections in March preparing
for next year.
Sandy McGlinn has been so busy
attending meetings, and organizing
new SGA committees, its hard to
catch her long enough to hear about
them. A good deal of her time has
been spent on the reorganization of
the Handbook, getting plans for
Freshman orientation going, and
especially on plans for Salem’s
200th anniversary next year. Sandy
has also organized a meeting with
Salem’s new president. Dr. Chand
ler early in May, and she and a
small committee will meet with the
Trustees about the drinking petition
in a few days.
Academically speaking, Sandy has
been collecting faculty references,
and re-evaluating assembly attend
ance for next year, in addition to
keeping in touch with Dean Johnson
and Dr. Gramley by weekly ses
sions.
Susan Hendrick has spent her
time mainly getting organized. As
Vice President of the Student Gov
ernment, she serves as the Hand
book editor. Chairman of the Stu
dent Service Council, and Chairman
of the newly organized Inter Club
Council. ,
In addition to getting the Hand
book ready for the^ press in May,
Susan has been presiding over regu
lar meetings of the SSC and the
Inter Club Council. For the re
mainder of the year, the SSC wi
be handling teacher evaluations and
closing the Book Exchange. c
Inter Club Council will serve as a
communications council among SGA
committees Susan hopes that the
ICC will keep the campus clubs in
touch and also make them more
effective next year.

have also spent much time this
spring on official duties. Eleanie,
as Chairman of the new Honor
Council, has been diligently revis
ing the Handbook. The Honor

try has offered Salem a heretofore
unavailable service . . ■ three men
working for the Campus Ministry
on the college campuses in Win
ston-Salem have offered themselves
as a counselling team here at Salem
on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wed
nesdays 2-S pm. Mark Rose, who
will work here on Mondays, Bill
Kirshevall, who will work on Tues
days, and Jake Vibrette, who will
be available on Wednesdays are
trained in guidance counselling, and
have their headquarters at Wake
Forest where they make frequent
contacts with students in both an
official capacity and in their extra
curricular duties as Campus Minis
try staff members.
These men are cooperating with
Salem in establishing the counsell
ing service on campus in order to
compliment the administration s al
ready-willing and wise ears. They
have requested that anyone wishing
to talk with them make an informal
appointment with Miss Roberts be
fore noon of the day desired. This
is so they may plan their afternoon
schedules around transportation to
and from Salem. Anyone who does
not wish to be identified may simply
phone Miss Roberts and reserve a
time period. These appointment
times run approximately forty-five
minutes each, so students should
whether or not they require
than one time period when
they make their appointments.
Our new counsellors encourage us
to take advantage of this new con
venience. They wish to provide
objective advice, and to be willing
listeners as well as friends to the
girls on campus.

ing on the organization of hand
book study groups for Orientation
next year.
Ren, as chairman of the Inter
Dorm Council, has been busy pre.
siding over weekly meetings of this
new council. The IDC handles all
social infractions, and serves as a
coordinating council among the
dorms. The main order of business
has been reorganizing the system
of SDH, which will hopefully, be
much improved by next year. In ad
dition to these activities, Ren has
also been working closely with the
Honor Council on the Handbook.
The 1971-72 school year at Salem
should be exciting and well-organ
ized thanks to these energetic SGA
officers.
