Governing Group
The central governing body of
students on the campus is the Stu
dent Senate.
The Senate is set up to deter
mine and conduct matters of gen
eral student concern that may
arise at various times of the year.
Objectives of the Senate are to
act as the official voice of the stu

body’s general welfare and to pro
vide a’ liaison between the admin
istration of the college and the
students. The Senate also provides
opportunity to train students in
the responsibilities and mechanics
of democratic government and citi
zenship.
Officers Elected
The officers of the Senate are
elected by the student body in a
general election held at the end
of each school year.
A senior, junior and sophomore
representative is ejected from each
major school at the time that the
officers are elected.
Four freshmen representatives
will be elected immediately fol
lowing the November mid-semes
ter grade reports and they will
take office at that time.
The Senate is divided into four
standing committees.
The Student Life Committee
strives to develop healthy student
attitudes on such campus prob
lems as an honor system and the
purposes of a college education.
They also attempt to develop bet
ter staff-student relationships.
The Student Welfare Committee
recommends policies or changes
concerning the College Hospital,
Dining Halls, dormitories and
landscaping. They also regulate
all student welfare fund drives.

THE AGGIE BONFIRE

Bonfire Symbol
Of Aggies ’ Spirit
When that stack of logs above
is ignited Wednesday before the
A&M-TU game, the flame of the
Spirit in Aggies’ hearts glows as
brightly as the fire.
It is the culmination of long,
hard hours spent in the woods
surrounding the school—hours of
gang-hauling logs from the cut
ting area to the stacking area
behind Duncan Hall.
The first parties hit the woods
usually the weekend before the
bonfire and begin cutting the logs
for the stack. Then they are
hauled out and loaded on flat-bed
trucks that various companies have
given the Aggies for that use.
Usually, two or three power
cranes have also been loaned to
the school, with drivers, to stack
the gigantic logs on the stac
