THE VIRGINIA UNION.

The Virginia Union was organized for the general purpose of directing and
coördinating various phases of student activity. It has set for itself the threefold
function of initiating, promoting, and supervising movements that merit
student attention and deserve student patronage. Iits activities include intercollegiate
debating, oratorical contests, and, through the coöperation of the
faculty Committee on Public Celebrations, the control of miscellaneous lectures,
concerts, and other entertainments. The union gives at least one public program
each term and holds informal entertainments at frequent intervals. Membership
is extended to students, faculty and alumni of the University, on payment of an
annual fee of one dollar. All business is conducted through an executive board
composed of both student and faculty members, elected annually. The present
officers are: D. C. Wilson, President; R. H. Meade, Jr., Vice-President; G. R.
Martin, Financial Manager; D. M. Faulkner, Recording Secretary; H. A.
Sparr, Corresponding Secretary; J. J. Luck, Auditor, and C. W. Paul, Treasurer.
The faculty members of the executive board are J. J. Luck, C. W. Paul, and
