This shows that very few stu dents realize exactly what -can happen when a poor, urtf iter ested, sluggish admi-ration trying to handle things..

The reason that student gov ernment is under fire so often is that its elected officials for the -most part don't understand their jobs. And they have never trained themselves to understand the functions of student govern ment simply because the campus attitude passively condones ig norance on the part of the men Anthnsiasticallv elected ...in the spring. - - ' Following a direct charge by your columnist that the "Stu dent Council was grossly unin formed" in a case last year, one very prominent member of the Student Council bitterly inform ed us that he "didn't have time to find out such things as what thP duties of the P. U Board or what power the coun cil had in such a case." It wasn't that he didn't have time. We know that. It was simply a ques tion of not taking time to under stand the duties of his office, partly because the campus didn't demand it and partly because he himself saw no reason to in form himself on the organiza tional intricacies. It may sound foolish to you when we say that we must train men for student government here, but it's not.
