  • UWG Association of Retired Faculty and Staff (ARFS) ANNUAL
    UWG Association of Retired Faculty and Staff (ARFS) ANNUAL REPORT For the dates: August 27, 2017 - August 11, 2018 Mitchell H. Clifton, Past President, ARFS Submitted on March 29, 2019 Introduction On October 7-9, 2018, two ARFS Coordinating Council members (Mitch Clifton and Anne Richards) attended the Ninth Biennial Conference of the Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education (AROHE) at Emory University in Atlanta. One session at this meeting discussed the benefits of a retiree organization producing an annual report. Later, Mitch and Anne decided that ARFS should, for the first time, consider producing such a report. At our January 19, 2019 ARFS Coordinating Council meeting, it was agreed that ARFS should produce an annual report for the time period starting on the day after the 2017 Annual Reunion (August 27, 2017), and ending on the date of the 2018 Annual Reunion (August 11, 2018). It was also agreed that Mitch Clifton should write this initial report. This report is being submitted in two forms: (1) a paper copy of three pages, and (2) a PDF file containing the three page report and ten appendices. Report Summary During the time period covered by this report: • Four Coordinating Council meetings were held; average attendance was twelve members. • Three issues of the Rejuvenator newsletter were produced and distributed to UWG retirees. • Mitch Clifton and Anne Richards attended two meetings of the USG Retiree Council and two meetings of the Georgia Association of Higher Education Retiree Organizations. • Eighty-seven persons attended the Annual Reunion, including fourteen new UWG retirees. • Fifty-five UWG retirees gave over $197,900 in contributions to the University of West Georgia.

PROVING THAT RUMORS OF THIS ‘ZINE’S DEMISE ARE GREATLY EXAGGERATED, here FINALLY is a new edition of the Cut. I won’t waste a whole lot of time and space analyzing why we haven’t put out a new issue in so long. I’ll just say that I’ve been one EXTREMELY busy person this past year, and wasn’t able to sink the time into the Cut that I wanted to. In fact, I’m just NOW starting to get caught up writing about all the stuff that happened last summer – concerts, vacations, album reviews, etc. And I still have more to do! So next issue, our “end of year recap” issue, will also feature some reviews from last summer, and other takes and B-S I need to get out of my system.
