Student Government Shows
Rapid Growth Since 40’s
By JIM HAMILTON
Battalion Staff Writer
Student government at A&M
has grown from a relatively basic
organization prior to World War
II to seven groups working in all
areas of student life.
Included in its present scope are
the corps, civilian students, the de
gree-granting schools, housing and
curriculum.
Prior to World War II, student
government consisted of Corps
Staff and the senior class. At
that time A&M was approximately
95 per cent Corps. After the war,
with veterans entering school un
der the GI Bill, civilian enrollment
grew appreciably.
At the request of veterans, a
student council was formed, com
posed of three corps members and
three civilian students. A chair
man was elected at large. Usu
ally the three corps members voted
together, the civilians voted in a
block, and the chairman made the
decision. Something else was
needed.
Next came the Student Senate,
similar to the current organiza
tion. It has undergone many re
visions since its beginning, and
today is the man student govern
ing body on the campus.
The senate discusses problems
and activities and makes recom
mendations to the administration.
Some have required action by the
Board of Directors to accomplish
the desired goal.
Soon after the creation of the
senate, civilian students on the
campus formed a governing body
similar to Corps Staff. The Ci
vilian Student Council, formed in
1953, is the representative of all
civilian students.
At about the same time the Ci
vilian Dormitory Councils were
also created with their purpose to
make recommendations to the Ci
vilian Student Council on matters
of civilian life and dormitories.
A main achievement of these
two civilian groups has been the
reduction of property damage and
noise in the dormitories, accord
ing to Bennie A. Zinn, director of
the Department of Student Af
fairs.
Also brought about by the two
groups are a strong intramural
program for civilians, open house
in the dorms, parties and socials.
In addition to these student gov-

ernment bodies, four groups work
with the degree-granting schools.
They are the Arts and Sciences
Council, the Engineering Council,
the Junior Chapter of the AVMA,
and the Agriculture Council.
Another group, the Intercoun
cil, is concerned with academic
matters pertaining to all schools
of the college. This group spon
sors the annual High School Day
on campus.
Another governing body in a
limited area is the Student Apart
ment Council, concerned primarily
with the problems of the married
student. This organization holds
Christmas and Easter parties each
year for children in the college-
operated apartments, in addition
to its regular activities.
