the staffs of Blackburn College and
Harvard University and the facul

four years when the senior class of
1957 chose as its gift to the college
a fund for faculty research. They
named it the “Harriet D. Hudson

This student respect for her is
shared by the nation’s top educa

ing facts: She was the only woman
on the executive committee of the
Association for Higher Education
from 1958 to 1961. She was that
group’s representative to the 1958
Belgian conference of the Inter
national Association of University
Professors and Lecturers. She is a
member of the Selection of Region
V of the Woodrow Wilson National
Fellowships Foundation; the Com
mittee on College Teaching of the
American Council of Education;
and at the Special Joint Screening
Committee of the Committee on
Standards and Reports of the Com
mission on Colleges and Universi
ties of the Southern Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools.
She has served on Visiting Com
mittees of the Southern Association.
She is also a member of the Ameri
can Economic Association, the In
dustrial Relations Research Associ
ation, and the National Education
Association.
Vitally concerned with scholar
ship programs. Dr. Hudson is a
regional director of the Tuition Ex
change Program, which is made up
of more than 200 colleges and uni
versities; the only woman on the
Advisory Committee on National
Student Financial Aid Programs of
the College Scholarship Service;
and chairman of the Scholarship
' and Aids Committee at R-MWC.
A specialist in labor economics,
she is the author of Progressive
Mine Workers of America: A Study
in Rival Unions and of several arti
cles and book reviews.
In the spring of 1961, she was one
of three nominees for the office of
president of the Association for
Higher Education for 1961-1962.
The Association is composed of
more than 15,000 faculty members
and administrators from 1,500 col

COUNSELORS FOR
62-63
CHOSEN
One of the highest honors a ris
ing senior can receive is that of be
ing asked to be a Hall Counselor.
The counselors perform such an im
portant work that their selection is
carefully screened. From the Junior
Class the counselor committee se
lects thirty-eight girls with at least
a C- average or who exemplify the
St. Mary’s spirit of friendliness,
helpfulness and cooperation. These
girls must then be approved by
Miss R. and Dr. Stone.
The thirty-eight girls who have
been selected are: Gee Canada, Ann
Farmer, Cydne Wright, Weldon
Cabell, Verna Gillam, Reide Wat
son, Frances McLanahan, Susan
Goode, Mary Parham, Alice Grib-
bin, Nannie Hussey, Ann Smith,
Cornelia Johnson, Mickey Single
tary, Haynes Walker, Barbara
Martin, Nelson Pemberton, Sarah
Rand, Caroline Walker, Phyllis
Cannon, Lynette Smith, Sally Stev
ens, Nancy Baum, Parks Freeze,
Becky Brown, Nell Bailey, Karen
Herndon, Lib Rawlings, Shirley
Keedwell, Mary Roper, Pat VIc-
Nulty, Kathi Ligon, Stewart Howie,
Lea Lea Hall, Jen Barber, Mar
garet Allen, Matilda Gholson, and
Alary Stella Leak.
Attending weekly Hall Council
meetings is the least of the hall
counselors’ duties. These girls set
an example for their hall members
to follow, create an impression of
the school for new girls, and main
tain discipline on the halls. Per
haps more important, the counselors
must be willing to advise any girls
who need help. The job entails
work and time; hoWever, the girls
who have been chosen are well
qualified to serve as hall counselors.
