MS. ANNICIA GAYLE is the fifth woman to be elected president of the Guild of Students at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus.
She joins Angela King (1960-61), Gloria Lannaman (1962-63), Daphne Rousseau (1964-65) and Althea Glenn-Wright (1986-87). She is the first female elected in 16 years, and not "in more than 20 years", as stated in your editorial of Saturday, March 30, 2002.
Incidentally, the Guild of Students, as it is now called, comprises both undergraduate and graduate students. That change occurred in the 1996/97 academic year, when the name of the student association was formally amended to reflect the change in the composition of its membership.
