This gift, plus the "Work Week" program by students and faculty in 1965 which netted $25,000 for the fund, gave the special cam­ paign impetus necessary for success.

YMCA IN URBAN LIFE Springfield's new YMCA in PROGRAM UNDERWAY Urban Life Program has met with favorable anticipation, according to progr.am coordinator Edward Sandow '50. In a move to strengthen its traditional relationship with the YMCA, the College added the program to its curriculum in September. The new program includes six new academic, admini­ strative, and secretarial posts. Included are a director and assistant, a YMCA professor in urban life, a visiting professor in urban life, and two secretaries. The primary field for work by students to gain experi­ ence in urban affairs will be the Greater Springfield Area. The entire program is a part of the academic division of Arts and Science. YMCA's across the nation will watch developments in this effort with more than passing interest.

MAIMONIDES, MEDIEVAL MODERNIST, Dr. Fred G. Bratton (Faculty), Beacon Press, Boston, Mass., 1967. Here is the first book-length appraisal by a Christian biographer of the great twelfth century Jewish philosopher who contributed so mightily to the rescue of Aristotle from intellectual obscurity - and the rescue of Judaism from ideo­ logical dissolution. Dr. Bratton has brought to life again the man who for many years has been sorely neglected within the mainstream of Christian scholarship and education. No religious biographer is better suited to the task of helping redress this neglect than Dr. Fred G. Bratton.

NOVEMBER, 1967 11 A Report on giving to the College for 1966-67 ...

THE PARENT'S ASSOCIATION Still relatively young in the fund raising business, the Parent's Association managed to raise from its membership $13,995.02 for the College. $6,584- .02 of this amount was in unrestricted giving. In addition to this, the Associ­ ation, from membership dues, contributed to a student-faculty enter­ tainment fund, gave books to the library, and made scholarship awards of $500.00 each to two Springfield students. Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Peek of Welles­ ley, Massachusetts were Association presidents for the 1966-67 year. MR. & MRS. H. L. PEEK

YMCA DEVELOPMENT Chairman of YMCA Development, Nelson H. Thorp of Rhode Island, announced that contributions from YMCAs in the states and areas solicited by the College amounted to $44,476.00, the greatest total ever in the history of the program. Perhaps the most encouraging develoRJllent in YMCA giv­ ing was the fact that eight Associations contributed another $78,935.00 in capital and restricted support. It is expected that the new YMCA Program in Urban Life will spur Asso­ ciation contributions to even greater heights in 1967-68. NELSON H. THORP

IMPACT '67 A dramatic program called IMP ACT '67 was introduced to the Alumni Fund by the energetic Class of '67. With Student Council President Craig . Kelly directing the effort, over forty members of the class raised $1,363 from classmates for an investment program. The money is to be administered . , .. ..-.. :~ by the College Investment Committee. When '67 meets for its 10th Reunion ~ .. in 1977, a decision will be made by those present as to whether or not the , ""~.,_\., .' money should be re-invested, given to the Alumni Fund, or ear-marked for a specific need of the College.

. ) Alumni will appreciate the spirit of the Class of '67 with the announce­ ,. ment that the class also pledged $8,015.00 to the Alumni Fund over the next three years. CRAIG KELLY '67

12 THE SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE BULLETIN THE ALUMNI FUND Alumni Fund Chairman Robert L. Reardon '51 and his committee re­ cruited 550 class representatives and agents to raise a total of $93,062.25 from 3576 Alumni in an intensive and successful campaign. 140 restricted gifts from Alumni added $13,761.38 to bring total Alumni giving over the $100,000 mark for the second succe~sive year. I ' The Century Club, composed of Alumni contributing $100.00 or more per year, saw its membership increase by 45 over the previous year. The club now has 325 members. A national telethon, 70,000 separate appeals, and a special Senior Class project all contributed to the success of the 1967 campaign. ROBERT H. REARDON '51

THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM According to Public Affairs Committee Chairman Richard Higgms, a Springfield Trustee, the Development Office, charged with raising funds to complete payments on the Art Linkletter Natatorium and the Western Massachusetts Electric property, compiled a most laudable record in 1967. In addition to raising $211,479.16 in unrestricted funds, a total of $553,223- .23 was raised in restricted giving. Included in the unrestricted total is an amount of $43,840.00 in government funding while the restricted amount includes government money totaling $217,277.00. Arthur Christ '44 and his Bequest Committee raised $21,300.00 during the y~ar. Abreakdown on all giving can be found on page 11 of this BULLETIN. RICHARD R. HIGGINS

THE CENTURY CLUB The Class of '41, under the leadership of Fred Watson of Brockton, Massachusetts, led the way for all Springfield classes in century club mem­ berships with sixteen members contributing $100.00 or more to the 1967 Alumni Fund. Total membership in the Century Club reached the 325 mark for a newall-time high. The leading class ih amount contributed was, once again, the Class of '50 with $4,700.34 raised. Not far behind with $4,132.00 was the Class of '51. All ten members of the Class of '06 were givers in 1967 to give the class a 100% record along with 1893, 1898, and 1900.
