These comments followed Driskell's induction of Campus Life Committee Co-Chair Stephen N. Smith '02 and former Council Vice President Samuel C. Cohen '00 into the Council's Hall of Fame.
The council also recognized Cohen and four other seniors--former Presidents Noah Z. Seton and Beth A. Stewart, former and current Student Affairs Committee (SAC) Chairs John Paul Rollert and Michael D. Shumsky.
Driskell also presented Shumsky with an award given annually to a senior council member never elected to council-wide office.
Shumsky--who has frequently aroused Driskell's ire this semester, most notably when he bashed the council's proposed Spirit Week--strolled down the aisle to receive his award and wrapped Driskell in a bear-hug.
Between awards, the council managed to allocate money to buy folding tables, equipment for the council's sound system and extra Springfest T-shirts.
And it debated a constitutional amendment dealing with the sticky problem of how to assign members to each of the council's three standing committees.
Given that next year's smaller council will only have three members per House and that the council's constitution requires a member from each House to be on each committee, members might not be able to serve on their first-choice committees.
