Student Council

The Black and Gold 1977



Student Council exec concerns range from awareness to apathy

 The McKinley High School Student Council Executive Board of 1977 was made up of seven former class officers and senators. Working as individuals as well as a team, they discussed student body problems.


 The board was represented by two elected officers (at large), President Jon Obara and Vice President Vince Yokoyama. Appointed to the board were Secretary Chris Okuda, Treasurer Eddie Young, Student Services Board Chairperson Catherine Uyehara and Social Board Chairperson Kathleen Campbell. Bart Asato was elected by the senate to serve as their president.


 During weekly meetings, they discussed problems arising in each of the different subject areas such as Coordinating Committee student activities and functions. Everything from student apathy to student awareness was covered.


 Individually, each exec conducted his own section of business with the president and vice president overseeing the entire student council.


 Getting things done for McKinleyites was the main goal of this year's senate.


 A new program started was the "involvement resolutions" which brought to attention many good things students do. The achievements were commended by the student council.


 Other things the senate got involved in were attending class council meetings to report what was going on in school, work on State Student Council resolutions, acting on problems facing the school and just getting involved in activities to promote spirit and participation.


 The senate played an important part in decision making as they allocated money to each of the 20 student council meetings. In October, the senate drew up resolutions for the 1977 State Student Conference.


 With the grievance board reorganizing, the senate helped out by bringing up important business to discuss with the board.


 The senate also finalized a committee to select outstanding student council members.


 Mr. Alvin Nip, an alumnus of the Class of 1967, took over as student activities coordinator. Guiding the seven execs throughout the year and advising them on problems that they encountered was his main job. He also assisted with the carnival, was involved in activities such as Homecoming, Crazy Week, Black and Gold Day and Leadership Camp.


 According to him, "Every teacher should have the opportunity to advise in student activities. It could be a rewarding experience or it could be very trying"

The Black and Gold 1977


ORGANIZATIONS

October's Club Open House gave many newcomers an opportunity to pursue interests and hobbies, give service to the school and community and to socialize. Clubs ranged from studying God's word by the McKinley Christian Fellowship to participating in sports for the Girls' Athletic Association; from being involved in choral groups for the McKinley Choir to figuring out math problems for the Math Club.


 This year has brought many determined students to form clubs such as Graphic Arts, Young Peoples Club, and Samoan Club.


 All clubs were chartered, registered and under the jurisdiction of Uni Club, composed of representatives from each group. It oversaw the progress and activities of the various organizations.
