HE
Big Sister Advisory Board is a group of fourteen girls
organized to act as sponsors and directors of the Big
Sister Movement. It is the aim of the organization "to
establish a basis of real individual friendship
between the women of the freshman class and the
upperclassmen by giving thought to their college life
and making plans to meet their needs; calling on them
in their homes, taking them to college meetings and to
church, and attempting to give the little sisters some
true ideas of their relations to the University, the
Y. W. C. A., the A. W. S., the W. A. A., and other
student activities.
The Board supervises
the work of about 350 active big sisters and 600
little sisters. The big sisters are divided into
groups of about twenty-five with a board member acting
as advisor. Group meetings are held to plan and
discuss the work of the Big Sisters, During the year a
special Vespers was held on the theme "Friendship." A
party was given during registration week, a dinner in
October, and a Valentine party in February for all big
and little sisters.
The Board is
composed of two sophomore members, four juniors, and
eight senior members. Eight new members are elected to
the Board each year. The president automatically
becomes a member of A. W. S. Board because of
associated support, and is a non-voting member of the
Y. W. C. A. Cabinet. An advisory council consisting of
one faculty member, one member, one alumnae, one
church and one Y. W. C. A. advisory representative
assists the Board in their activities.
