Evans Jim Schneider, President of the Tri-C Western College Union, 1969-70, and I were having one of those bull sessions such as occur periodically bet- ween a Director and a Union Board President, when the discussion led to several items. Among them were, the top administrators of the college have little or no idea what a College Union is, what a College Union Program is all about, many involved students had little idea on why we do it, or what we're trying to accomplish. The dialog at this point went something like this: Walt: "Do you know what I'd really like to do, Jim?" Jim: "What?" Walt:"I'd like to teach a course in College Union work. You know, philosophy, role, relation to academics, how to do it, and that kind of stuff. Design it for students, faculty and especially administration. Maybe it might make for some kind of a break- through to the administration, and at the same time give the students a leadership course to make next year's Union what we both want most, the best Union Progr m in any Community College in Region 7, hopefully the best in the United States, certain to surpass the programs of many four-year colleges. At this point there was a long long pause. Jim: "You know what, Walt?" Walt:"What?" Another long long pause, interspersed with raised eyebrows, a thoughtfully wrinkled forehead and a deep into the eyes two-way stare. Jim: "So would I.Can it be done?" Walt:"Of course.Anything can be done." Jim: "Yes, but can we do it?" Walt:"If you mean, 'Do we have the ability, the money, the facility,' I don't think you question it. " -1- Jim: "No, no . " Walt:"As far as being permitted to do it as a leadership training service, it would need the Dean's okay. Why don't you talk to the Dean?" Jim: "I will as soon as I can. " One thing led to another and, we were on our way. This book is a tran- scription of the complete course. Supposedly it is verbatim, however, some editing has been done to try to make it more readable, as opposed to listen- able form. There are some sent....nce fragments which have been allowed to remain.I believe they do not detract from, but rather add to the presentation. I hope you find this book of value. Walter B. Evans December, 1969 COLLEGE UNION 101 - COURSE OUTLINE July 8, 1969 Amended August 4, 1969 PURPOSES 1.

Schneider Welcome to College Union 111, I am very pleased to see that the membership of this course is made up of staff, faculty, and students from both the Western and the Metropolitan campuses.This course is the first of its kind in the coun- try, and, therefore. I am very proud to be a part of it.It has drawn a great deal of interest from everyone who has heard of it and about it. This course was originated to draw interested people to the Union, to get those interested people involved, and get those involved members more knowledgeable in Union programming and its function. Our Union Director, Walt Evans, and I have spent more time in cutting down the material covered by the course than we have in finding topics for it.There is much more that could be covered, but we will try to present the most important topics.Each class could become a course in itself.Therefore, I am sure that we will all learn immensely from each session.

    SCRUTINISED LONG MANIFESTOS - TT20 (2ND ELECTION) CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT-ELECT Amy Gregg (Ex-Treasurer, Exeter College ) - Candidate for President-Elect - Long Manifesto The Union has had significant setbacks in the last few years. I did not intend to run this term, but it is clear that the Union needs a President who has the experience and the capability to set it back on the right course. The Union can do so much better, and the Union must do so much better. As an undergraduate, I was President of the Cambridge Union. During this time I ran a record-setting membership drive, managed a £100,000 budget, and hosted over thirty speakers including Stephen Fry, Quentin Blake and Moazzam Begg. After leaving Cambridge I was a trainee solicitor at a Magic Circle Law firm, and I now hold an offer for a pupillage to be a barrister. I have real world experience which I can use to improve our Union as well. I previously served on committee for 7 terms. In this time I arranged 5 debates, including confirming 5/6 speakers for the Comedy debate. I ran Debates, Panels and Speaker events, confirmed multiple speakers and chaired the Union’s largest committee. I also spent over 50 days of vacation working for the Union and made 3 winning paper speeches. As Treasurer I secured 29 debate Floor Prizes, 12 New Treasurer’s Treats and coordinated sponsorship from a major Scholarship fund - ensuring transparency by publishing the audited accounts on the app. This demonstrates that I have the ability to run the Union, but it also made me realise: the Union needs real change - change only an experienced President can bring.

Construction of replacement facade, reinstatement and refurbishment of historic features and internal and external access and refurbishment works including enlargement of existing cafe (Use Class A3) and reopening of 'footlight's' entertainment space (sui generis). Demolition of squash courts and un-listed 3-5 Round Church Street in the conservation area. Construction of new link building for access and ancillary uses for the Union Society. Construction of adjacent new building with ground floor restaurant (Use Class A3) with 45 room post-graduate student accommodation above (Use Class C2) together with basement storage and services. Applicant Cambridge Union Society and Trinity College SUMMARY The development accords with the Development Plan for the following reasons: The principle of demolition and development has been established under the previously permitted application (16/0673/FUL). In comparison with the previously permitted plans (16/0673/FUL) the proposal is not considered to exacerbate the level of harm caused to heritage assets. The proposed changes compared to the previously approved development would not impact on the accessibility of the building.

It occupies a large site on the south-west corner of Park Street and Round Church Street.

Peterhouse was founded in 1284. It is a simple and brief statement, but our college’s life has been neither simple nor brief. It is supremely difficult to summarise almost 800 years of history. You could wax lyrical over the historical events our college has shaped and been shaped by. You could mention some of our most famous alumni, among them a Prime Minister and an Archbishop of Canterbury. Or you could think of all the remarkable things they have brought into the world: from computers to jet engines to poetry and laughter, and, most importantly, the bassline of one of the greatest songs ever (it’s Creep, by Radiohead, if you’re wondering).
