It was at this conference that Bo­ runda was elected one of 10 members who will serve this coming year on the Advisory Board for this group. Miss Tica Doyle of the College for Women served in this position last year. Bo- runda's selection represents the first time in SBPC history that members of the same University have been elected in succeeding years. By ERNEST BORUNDA It is Aug. 21 and in a couple of hours I will be boarding an airplane for San Diego.

Student Services Though the agenda was a- mended somewhat by the presi­ dents themselves, the basic pro­ gram offered by the NSA has been substantially useful and in line with preparing us for the coming year. Student services are among the most important topics we have discussed. In addition, ju­ LEADERS—The three top officials of the University for Men president; the Most Rev. Francis J.
