Gave Most of Report on Facing Mt Kenya - Monday, April 6, 1964

We had a WJC meeting this evening about another library case. Dean Gibson seems to be overstepping judicial council jurisdiction since she already has her mind made up that there will be a penalty in all five cases of having to work 12 hours at the library. An election of junior class officers was being held today. I shouldn't be like this, but I felt rather slighted not being a candidate for anything. I gave most of my oral report on Facing Mt Kenya today in geography class. I'll have to give my conclusion on Wednesday. I went to an algebra review session. We have another test tomorrow.

Voted in New Members of Stephens Tonight - Sunday, April 5, 1964

It's awful that I should be acting in ways more immature about the Stephens move than I did about the Hawley move. We voted in new members tonight but I haven't heard the results yet. I think a combination of factors have been acting to make me jumpy. My pent-up steam needs an escape valve. I went to the choir concert this afternoon. After all our efforts, Mr. Larson forgot to have them stay for yearbook pictures. (Just got back from Karen's phone call about the matter.) I went to Sunday evening forum - a man from India on a march for peace spoke. We had a student council meeting with the new goon squad. Stephens served Woodward the breakfast they bought at the WUS auction - pancakes in the Meetin' House.

Fred Was at a Herr House Party - Saturday, April 4, 1964

I went with Judy and Bonnie to the play "Picnic" tonight. It was okay, but I've seen better plays at Park College. I've seen the movie so was familiar with the story. Then I went to the party at Herr House and had a good time with some of the freshman boys. Fred was there having a good time with Kathy Olson. He's still been smoking a lot. This was a cold rainy day. I made several attempts at homework but didn't accomplish much. Nancy and I took a walk through Parkville in the rain this afternoon. The Parkville librarian let me have the copy of the paper with the student council picture in it.

Saw the President About Staying in Stephens - Friday, April 3, 1964

Diane, Karen, Barb, Liz, Terry, Rosemary, Evelyn and I went in to talk to the president this afternoon. He's almost sure we'll have to move out of Stephens next year. It's all because this college has been taking in all these male students from eastern college admissions centers. Some of us have been through having to leave a dorm once before. We've now decided that since our number will be reduced next year anyway, we'd like to live in "His House." John Garrett was dismissed from the health center while I was working. No one came to see the doctor.

Stephens May Have Male Students Next Year - Thursday, April 2, 1964

I'm afraid I'm going to have to go through yet another dorm fight during my stay at Park College. It seems that the administration thinks Stephens may have to be occupied by male students next year. "Rise up ye women with arms, the fight has just begun!" I thought I would die this afternoon, yet was thrilled with the composure Babs maintained when she pretended to be Diane after I had taken a call from the president's secretary when they tried to get us to cancel our appointment with him until after we had seen Dean Gibson. Everyone likes my book. Ellen showed it to George and said he just loved it. The algebra test was murder, but at least quite a few thought that. Babs and I made cupcakes for the LLC meeting tonight. I sold 11 chocolate bars to students here for the U. N. Model Assembly during lunch.

Phyllis and Virginia Were in a Car Accident - Wednesday, April 1, 1964

Mom called me about 7:00 this morning from Shenandoah where they went Monday to the hospital after Phyllis and Virginia were hurt in a one-car accident Sunday evening. One of the college guys was driving them to Red Oak so Virginia could take the train home after visiting Phyl over the weekend. They have cuts and bruises but are going to be okay. They took Phyl back to Tarkio today and returned home with Virginia. I guess the college car was totally demolished. I called Phyllis this evening. I have an algebra assignment and test tomorrow. I really don't feel much like studying.

Was Student Council Secretary Tonight - Tuesday, March 31, 1964

Diane had me take her place as student council secretary tonight. I'm glad I don't have that job all the time - it's wearing. We has a long meeting - till 10:00 - selecting the goon squad for next year's "Hell Week." I went down to Parkville this afternoon to get some books at the library. The weather finally got nice and warm again. Terry Seelye is the new ICC chairman. I'm going in circles trying to keep up with things. As an advisory member of the student council, I'm going to have to speak up more. I still like the way you can say what you think at Park College - people may disagree with your idea, but they don't hold it against you personally.
