Prospect Union's Committee System

The plan of conducting the Prospect Union has recently been changed by the creation of seven committees to supervise the various departments, each committee being composed partly of members and partly of teachers. This plan is expected to stimulate the growth of the Union, as it gives the members the desired opportunity of sharing the work of supervision, which has previously been done by the teachers only.

The enrollment in classes is considerably greater this year than for some time, the total being about 450, as against 215 last year.

The members of the University who have been appointed to the various committees are as follows: house committee--O. L. M. H. Lyding '09, G. H. Howard 2L., J. C. Bills '09; membership committee--S. F. Peavey 3L., H. C. Chapin; athletic committee--E. A. Thompson 3L., H. T. Viets '09; lecture committee--L. W. Churchill '07, W. F. Hall '09; library committee--H. B. Platt 1G., W. O. Hubbard 1L.; publicity committee--J. S. Miller '10; committee on classes--P. N. Crusius '09, A. H. Elder 2L.

The following new teachers have been added: I. F. Carpenter '10, H. W. O'Connor '10, I. W. Gross '11, A. C. Roberts '10, F. G. White 3L. A. H. Elder 2L., who has served as educational director, has recently been elected president of the Prospect Union.
