The purpose of the club is to further the well being of the college and its graduates by increas- ing the interest of its graduates in the college and in each other. There are various ways to achieve your aims, One is to decide on the number of meetings, and dedicate most of them to the service of the college, that is to programs deal- ing in some way with college affairs. You cannot always have faculty members from the college on your program, but there arc students and former students who can talk to you, and parent, of students, who can give you very interesting information as to their views of the college. The report of the Alumnae Council is with us one of the most interesting of our programs. It is surprising the interest which they stimulate, as the alumnae who give their reports are not always experienced speakers. Rather they are average alumnae who have returned to the campus, and are delighted with what thcy have seen and heard. It is a mistake to try to have an additional attraction on the program when the Council is reported. According to our dub handbook we are all supposed as clubs to have by-laws and to abide by them.

The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the Foreign Policy Association, the Woodrow Wil- son Foundation, and the World Peace Foundation are or- .ganizational sponsors.
The Institute 'held its first session at Mount Holyoke last year, and the enthusiastic r~sponse to its inauguration made it apparent that an important effort in international affairs had been established. Opportunities an.' offered for discussion with United Nations leaders, government offi- cials from many countries, specialists in international rela- tions, and leaders in movements toward world order. Weekly trips to Lake Success to observe the United Nations at Work are an important program feature.
The Institute is open to all men and women interested in world affairs. A special invitation is issued to alumnae of Connecticut College.
