People in other parts of the Church ask about it. So do other college presidents I meet from PRESIDENT time to time. They wonder what makes the Guild function so successfully year after year. HUEGLI I su ppose there are many reasons why some organiza­ tions succeed and others do not. Certainly the Guild owes much to its leadership all these years. The elected officers on local and national levels would probably have been outstanding in any group. The executive sec­ retaries have always been essential to the continuity and progress of the Gu ild. One might say that the Gu ild has been especially blessed in the kind of leaders it has decades of its service I think there is something else. had. The Apostle Paul speaks of it in 1 Cor. 15,58.

COOK BOOK PROJECT At the Guild Convention, by majority vote, a National Cookbook Project was undertaken, an editor, Mrs. Clarence Rivers, was appointed and recipe forms were distributed. Now we would like to share some further planning with you. We want to make this a very special "Valpo" cookbook, one to be desired because it has excellent recipes, because it is beautifully done in the manner of cookbooks, and because it is more than "just" a cookbook, one uniquely of Valpo. We want your favorite "easy" recipe, or your "most requested recipe" or your own family's special food that has become a tradition at your house (the food that "it wouldn't be Easter.... or Christmas . .. .without. ...) - please tell us about this if you send a recipe in this category - or just send the one special rec ipe you'd most like to share with the rest of us. Perhaps you have a certain dish that you especially like to prepare to share with neighbors moving in or with a family whose mother is ill. If you'd like to, please comment on your recipes or customs. We hope this cookbook will sell itself; that it will be the perfect shower gift, or thank-you or "bread-and-butter" gift after a visit or house-warming gift (perhaps with a chosen recipe marked and an accompanying box of groceries containing the ingredients to make it!) (Can you think of a more delightful way to welcome a new Pastor's wife?). We hope that cooks wi ll see it and order one for themselves. Yes, tru ly we want this to be our cookbook - YOUR cookbook. Please send your special recipe on the enclosed form; pre-publication books are priced at $3.00 postpaid. After July 1, 1972, 40 cents postage and wrapping will be added. If 2, 3, or 4 Guild members who like to work together would contact the editor and volunteer to help with a section of the cookbook, it would be most appreciated. This would involve organizing recipes within a category, typing accord­ ing to a form provided and sorting of recipes to be used. This work will of necessity have to be done during January, 1972. To order books, for information, or to otter to help, please contact the editor: Mrs. Clarence (Midge) Rivers RR # 1, Box 109 Valparaiso, Ind. 46383 3 REPORT of the NATIONAL PRESIDENT Mrs. Gene C. Bahia Our second purpose involves our financial support to the current fund of the University. Ou r dues are a direct contribution to the everyday running expenses of 40th Anniversary Convention - September 24, 1971 Valpo. Every member pays at least $2 per year to this fund. Beside this money, many, many ladies are Patrons. Madam President: Our yearly Patron contributions of $10 or more support "I thank Thee and praise Thee, 0 Thou God of my the current fund as well. Th is 40th Anniversary year has fathers" Daniel 2:23.

  • Progress with Diversity 1971-1993
    Chapter Six Progress with Diversity 1971-1993 Seventy-six years after its founding, Concordia College was searching for only its fourth president. Procedures for selecting a president in synodical institutions had changed significantly since Concordia last elected a president. A faculty-selected presidential election com­ mittee of one person from each academic division is charged with gathering biographical information and professional evaluations on all candidates nominated for the presidency. The committee makes a comparative analysis of the nominees and chooses the final slate of candidates to submit to the electors for their vote. Although pro­ cedural variations are possible, this was the technique used to choose Concordia's fourth through eighth presidents. Presidential elections are determined by representatives from the four jurisdictions of the institution. They are the president of the Missouri Synod, the President of the synodical district in which the institution is located, the chairman of the Board for Higher Education, and the members of the Board of Control (the name was changed to the Board of Regents in 1981) as a group with one vote. If necessary, any one of the first three electors may have his official representative vote in his place in the election. The individuals then serving in these positions comprised the electors who assembled at Concordia College on January 25, 1971. The electors considered a final slate of candidates recommended from the 93 initial nominees. Chosen as president-elect was the Reverend Harvey A Stegemoeller, a 41-year old associate professor of history and political science at Concordia Senior College in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
