UMD CAMPUS CLUB--NEW MEMBERSHIPS-----Please submit your applications for membership in the UMD Campus Club by Friday, October 3. A master membership list will be prepared at that time and should be as complete as possible to minimize amendments. However, new members are welcome at any time. Application blanks may be picked up from Mrs. Audrey Larsen, 101 Kirby Student Center, or in the Campus Club. Membership is open to all members of the official staff, academic (lecturers, instructors and above) and civil service, of the University of Minne- sota, Duluth as well as to staff members of other campus-based and University affiliated activities.

COORDINATOR FOR CONFERENCES AND INSTITUTES AT UMD-----Neale Roth, coordinator of student activities, has now been given the added responsibility of coordinating UMD sponsored conferences and institutes. The new buildings completed on our campus during the past few years provide excellent facilities for large group use, i.e., new cafeteria and meeting rooms, Stadium Apartments, Marshall Performing Arts Center, recreational areas, etc. There are times during the year (especially June 15 to September 15) that our facilities would be available for use by off-campus groups. It is felt that one person and one office should coordinate th is effort, with the goals of expanding the use of our campus and making UMD better known regionally and nationally. Neale's responsibility in this area will be: (1) to develop and expand the level of activity of conferences and institutes that relate to the educational mission of UMD and fall within the Regents' policy concerning use of space by outside groups and (2) to coordinate logistics of the resources needed for the meetings. Your cooperation is needed to assist with this endeavor. Each of you belong to professional and other types of organizations looking for sites to have conferences. Your effort in passing this information to Neale would be of help in getting detailed information regarding the resources and facilities of UMD to those people making the decisions for your group. Another way you can help is to contact Neale's office first regarding any conference and/or outside group that you are bringing to campus requiring space and other services. The coordination of the logistics is an important element in providing satisfactory service. Academic classes and other student needs take priority over conferences and institutes, but when it is assured that those priorities are not violated, the coordinator of conferences and institutes has been given the authority to work with individuals responsible for scheduling campus physical space in working out arrangements. The major question in scheduling outside groups into our resources would be the avail ab ii ity of the space as it relates to the above priorities. UMD has always been available for off-campus groups, but there has been no one person or office responsible for coordinating the effort. It is hoped this change will be the first step in a systematic effort of making our campus, which is located in one of the most picturesque settings in the United States, available to many more people.
