SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1948 TIE MICHIGAN- DAILY PAGE CAMPUS ALIVE FOR LEADERS: Petitioning Opens for League Posts C ' Editor's Note:-This article intro- duces a series of informative sketches of positions on the League Under- graduate Council which will appear daily on the Women's Page. By MARY ANN HARRIS Michigan is made vital, more than a school, through active par- ticipation in the women's self- governing body, the Michigan League, according to League Pres- ident, Pat McKenna. In urging junior women to file petitions for senior league posi- tions, which will be due at 5 p.m. Monday, Nov. 29, Miss McKenna amphasizes four outstanding ad- vantages in being an integral part of the Michigan League: knowl- edge of campus affairs, personal relationships, training for the fu- ture and study habits. Chairmanship of one of the League standing committees means membership on the League Undergraduate Council, sounding board for opinions of Michigan women. * * * WHAT DOES this official body do? Essentially they represent the women on campus. Through co- ordinating the activities of all theI standing committees and keeping abreast of student events they gain a birds-eye view of campus affairs. The Board of Governors, the Electoral Board, the Student Affairs Committee -these are the University Governing bodies who are in constant contact with League Council executives. Through these associations and through their own vast organiza- tion League Council views from the "inside" the broad Scope, 'of University and campus affairs. "The campus becomes personal with you," states Miss McKenna. *, * * AS A COMMITTEE head and a member of League Council per- sonal relationship experience will be invaluable, agree this year's Council members. Not only do League officers and chairman come to know University officials as "real" people, but they gain a wealth of knowledge from working with the "little people," the students who are the real force behind their committees. Handling a committee to run a social event or perhaps a tutoring system requires tact and under- standing, say those who hold the reins this year. - FACED WITH a group whose talents and temperaments vary greatly, a chairman must given and take. As a committee func- tions, there is a flow of ideas in both directions-up to the direc- tor and down to the committee members. The experience of adequately combining efficiency and per- sonality opens the way to one of the most important aspects of League positions, job training. Women who expect to hold down executive positions will value their previous leadership responsi- bilities and group contacts. Per- sonal problems of committee work may also lead directly to person- nel work in post-college days. * * * STUDIES, contrary to most popular thought, may also bene- fit from activity work. "Good marks and League activities seem to coincide," says President Mc- Kenna. By keeping busy, students learn how to budget their time effectively and avoid the com- mon lethargy that keeps them in the "C" category. Those who want to take a place in this vital organization have a wealth of reference and advice at their hands. I"HEY MAY consult the Presi- dents' Reports found in the League Library and in the Undergraduate Office in the afternoon, the League Lowdown, The League Constitu- tion and present members. "Come in and see me," says President McKenna, who would like to talk with prospective Council members concerning their ambitions and possibilities. Following this article the Wo- men's page will run a series of informal "portraits of positions," which will give a picture of the job of each council member. Executive positions on League Council which are open for peti- tioning are president, vice-presi- dent, secretary, treasurer, chair- man of judiciary committee and chairman of interviewing commit- tee. Standing committee chairman- ships will be benefit drives, dance class, merit-tutorial, orientation, personnel, publicity, social and representative on the student book exchange. r i \ 4 r -~ '4- -4-- The WONDERLAND that i S OON we will be caught in its magic spell . . . that most wondrous season of all the year ...
