This was the first year that we instituted a yearly membership fee. Your respome to this new innovation was very encouraging. More members have con­ tributed to the Asrnciation this year than in any previous year. The acquirement of Mr. John Ferguson as our Executive Director leads us down another new path. The new year will see many new ideas being started ·under him. - R ecently I atten:ded the first reunion held at Sir George. This was between the Georgian Basketball Team and its Alumni members. It was good to see familiar faces. I hope that this idea, started by the Athletic Department of the University will continue in future years. Your executive is at the present time planning a huge reunion of all years and faculties. This should be held sometime in the fall of 1961. Your executive entertained at a dinner for the executive members of the Students' Undergraduate Society and also for the Evening Students Association. The editor and assistant editor of the Georgian also attended. This meeting was held because your executive felt that we were becoming too distant from the students of our university. From this meeting a closer liaison has been established between us and the students. With the Christmas season upon us I would like to take this opportunity to extend to all alumni the best wishes of the Board of Directors, and my own personal, sincere wish that all of you may find in 1961 a prosperous and a H appy New Year.

SINCE 1817 S0213 S 8 The Postgrod LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Sir : This letter is to inform you, and readers of this publication, about the improved relationship developed recently between the As~ociation of Alumni of Sir George and the students generally. For cOI!; e time, this relationship was anything but cordial; as a matter of fact, many students - including some holding positions in student government - claimed that they hardly knew an Alumni Association existed. This state of affairs became known to the Alumni Board of Directors, and they decided to do something about it. O n October 27 th, 1960, the Alumni Executive played host to the Evening Students As~ociation Executive, the S.U .S . Executive, the Editor of "The Geor­ gian", and his assistant. At this supper meeting, each member of the Alumni executive present outlined one particular phase of Alumni affairs; such as aims and objects of the Association ; its activities; its finances; the li aison with the University's Board of Governors through the Alumni's two representatives to that Board ; and the publicity provided by "The Postgrad" . Considerable discussion followed, ancl many que3tions were asked by the students and answered by their hosts. The main re,ul t of that meeting was that clo~er co-operation was to be sought between under­ graduate and graduate bodie3. In the fe w weeks which have elapsed since then, the liaison between Alumni and students has improved almost beyond expectation. Correspondence between the Alumni office, and the students' offi ces has increased considerably. M any req ueJts have been received by the Alumni for support- fin ancial and otherwise­ for undergraduate projects. M o t of these requests were granted ; a few which were thought by the Board of Directors to be out of Alumni juri diction, or otherwise un acceptable, had to be refused. A Georgian reporter interviewed President Gerry Miller, and this interview appeared in "The Georgian". Alumni executive members are now receiving by mail copie, of " The Georgian"; ( it is hoped to expand this group to include the Board of Directors) . The various student offices, including the " Georgian" offi ce, are receiving copies of " The Postgrad" . This welcome " Fraternization" reached a fitting climax the weekend of Dec. 9-10-11 , when the Evening Students Association of S.G.W .U.
