FROM A BRIDGE

Of 20 feet from a bridge and alighting

AT GRINNELI

Grinnell, Dec. 12.-An innovation in
student self-government, unparalleled in
the history of western colleges, has
been inaugurated at Grinnell college.
BY the new plan, a council Of twelve
students, selected by vote of the
students and faculty, will determine
the policies Of student government at
Grinnell.
The students at Grinnell have had
self-government for number OF years,
but the former council did not have
nearly the power that has been bestow-
ed upon the new council. Three fac
ulty members held seats in the old
council and they were able to have a
great influence upon the actions OF
the student members.
The new plan as unanimously adopt
ed by both the faculty and students.
Under this plan the members of the
council will be elected from the stu
dent body, at general election, IN
which both students and faculty vote.
The seniors will have six members;
the juniors three; the sophomores, two
and the freshmen one. Two-thirds of
the members will be elected for more
than one year and in this manner con-
tinuity will be given to the council.
The coucil will meet every two
weeks and all policies of student gov
eminent will originate in this council.
Should the council propose measures
of too radical nature the faculty will
have the right to veto them.
The women of the college have had
a woman's self-government league for
+la 1act throo voara A1fholph tho
league has met with some perplexing
questions it has ably proven it's eff
cheney in self.government.
