THE MICHIGAN 1) 'l cy wp.~ ~ 1 .. _.. ..... -_ _ m COOKE IS ELECTED1 LEAGUE1DELEGATE TO ANN VAL MEETING Will Go to Palo Alto, California, for Four Day Convention in December. COOPERATION IS MOTIVE Students From All Schools Will Attend Meeting To Hear Noted Men. Eleanor Cooke, '31, has been elected by the Board of Directors of the League to represent the Uni- versity of Michigan at the annual convention of the National Student' Federation of America, to be held in December at Palo Alto, Cali- fornia. The convention lasts for four days And has representatives from almost every college and uni- versity in the United States. The purpose of the convention is to achieve a spirit of cooperation among the students of the United States; to give consideration to questions affecting student inter- ests; to develop intelligent student opinions on questions of national and international importance; and to foster understanding among the students of the world in the fur- therance of enduring peace. Outstanding men from all over the United States attend the con- ventiony'to speak to the students. Disseussions include subjects which' are of major interest to all colleges at the present time. The honor sys- tem and student government were questions which were stressed at the convention last year, at which Helen Fellows, '30, represented the Michigan League, together with fraternity and sorority problems. The question of world peace, as1 concerned with the education of1 American students on world prob- lems, is a vital concern of the as- sociation. The representative every year brings back to the university ol1the, suggestions and new ideas which she has derived from the conven- tion, as well as carrying to the con- vention the knowledge which ex- perience in the League has given her. The position is, therefore, a; responsible one. The convention, in general, tends to unite moreI closely the colleges and universi- ties which otherwise would not have frequent contact, in the different sections of the country. There is an organization in Eu- rope which corresponds to the Na- I tional Student Federation of America and which keeps in con- tact with American schools. Last rear it was this organization which' sponsored the visit of the African jtudent to the various universities Un America, including a trip to the University of Michigan.
