The reception preceding the banquet gave the honored guests a few minutes to continue the reminiscing. There were comments about President Donovan's "yard- stick rule" which made it necessary for all men and women to sit a yard apart while on campus.

8 EASTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSIT w[hen the eleven graduates of the 1909 class met in old Memorial Hall on July 14 of that year to or- ganize the first Alumni Association, it was their in- tent that the Association "establish a closer and more intimate connection between the graduates of the Normal School." Much has changed since 1909. Old Memorial Hall is gone. Of those eleven charter members of the Alumni Association, only one Leslie Anderson-re- mains. And Eastern is no longer a "normal" school. The changes have been inevitable. The alumni rolls now number more than 45,000. A new dormi- tory stands where old Memorial Hall once stood. And Eastern became Eastern Kentucky State Teach- ers College, then Eastern Kentucky State College, and in 1966, Eastern Kentucky University. ore This year, another significant change has come to the Alumni Association, a change that those hearty pioneers in the 1909 class would probably champion. On July 1, the Alumni Association of Eastern Kentucky University became a self-supporting entity within the University. What this means in an simple economic terms is that the Alumni Association, now 45,000 strong, has ta-

ken upon itself to pay its own way as it continues to "establish a closer and more intimate connection" between alumni and their Alma Mater. Until this year, the Alumni Association and the University had been inseparable, financially as well Ever. as philosophically.

Now, more funds that might, in part, have been allocated to the Alumni Association. Moreover, all involved felt that hanever, your assistance the Association had reached a point where it could assume responsibility for its finances. s needed. Over the years, financing wavered between annual dues to annual gifts and back to annual dues today. Whatever the status-dues or gifts-alumni have always been supportive of the services offered. One example

is the Alumni Scholarship Program which, under the watchful eye of J.W. Thurman, Director of Alumni Affairs, has now accrued an endowment large enough to maintain 24 students on scholarships for four years. Each scholarship amounts to $2400 for each recipient. And although there are other criteria used in determining these recipients, priority will now be given to children of active alumni, or to those recommended by active, dues-paying graduates. In the past, as gifts or dues were received, those earmarked for specific purposes like alumni scholarships were channeled to those specified areas. The remainder helped build an endowment which will now be used to finance some of the services and programs in the new budget. This endowment however, will not begin to cover all the expenses incurred by

The distinction between active (dues paying) and inactive (non dues-paying) alumni will be more evident as programs and services will be directed to those who help finance the new status.

u'niversity officials and the Alumni Executive Council members who took this bold step toward self-sufficiency realized that the recent budget cuts from Frankfort made some kind of action necessary The move toward this financial independence was nc made with reckless abandon however. There was the realization that Eastern alumni have always responded to challenges, and that now, their ranks had grown to a point where such a move was possible, indeed, warranted given the existing economic conditions. Our goal for this 1982-83 year is 20 per cent of the Alumni Rolls or 8,000 active, dues-paying alumr Whether we reach that goal or not depends upon the commitment from alumni who understand the new relationship between the Association and the Univer

sity, and who know that it is possible to be supportive and self-sufficient at the same time. The annual dues have been raised beginning this year from $10 to $15 for single memberships and from $15 to $25 for joint husband/wife memberships. Life memberships are now $200 for single an( $300 for joint life memberships. Both of these changes were made after careful consideration and a in line with other institutions like Eastern around th United States. This new role for the Alumni Association raises questions which need to be addressed. The most common one is simply, how will the relationship wit the University be affected?

Ever T..he answer is that, financially, the University will bear little responsibility for the Association except to provide an executive secretary and a house Some of the memorable moments in the history of Eastern's its Alumni Association are recalled in these photographs.

What sources of revenue are available to the Alumni Association?

10 EASTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSIT The chief source of revenue will be annual dues from alumni and friends. This is. of course, the key to the success of this bold venture. The existing endowment will insure that some of the basic expenses are paid, although it will not begin to cover all the services provided. The Alumni Scholarship Fund is sound and will continue to maintain 24 scholars. The scholarships will be unaffected by the new status, except that they may be n increased as the endowment is 9 increased.

o'ther sources of revenue include merchandising of various items to alumni. The new EKU Pewter Collection is ^ included in this magazine as is the Bos- ton Rocker which features the University seal. Travel Ever, programs, insurance programs, and the new Member- loan program generate some revenue, although all are conducted as services for alumni and their financial returns are minimal. What will this new status mean for alumni involvement?

Realistically, it means that alumni who remain inactive will receive fewer alumni mailings, not because we want it that way, but because the financial

realities make it impossible to pay postage and printing costs unless the income permits.

What does it all mean? It means that we need you, "Now, More Than ." Ever. . as our 1982-83 theme says. It means that we need your financial support to continue to oper- ate as we have in the past.

It means that the Alumni Executive Council-your elected representatives-will perhaps assume a more strategic role in the operation of the Association as time passes.

IIt does not mean that we will forget about those who do not financially support the Alumni Associa- tion. They will still be offered some of the services and programs that are available to all; at least they will be offered as many as possible. But the future belongs to the active alumni who realize that the change was one in a long line of tran- sitions for Eastern Kentucky University and its Alumni Association.

It will not be an easy transition for us. We've

counted on you before. . .to finance the Chapel of

Meditation. . .to recruit for the University. . .and in many other ways. As yet, you've never failed to put EKU among your priorities for support. And as we take stock of the year and our new status, we're confident that we can count on you again. eslie Anderson, '09, (top photo), can fittingly be called "the 'ither of Eastern's Alumni Association."

Colonel Connection Meets Success for Third Year

By providing a service to teaching candidates and school system recruiters throughout the southeast. Eastern's "Col- onel Connection" has the ideal setting for any job seeker in the education field.

The Colonel Connection Is not your typical recruiting service. By planning as many as 250 interviews on a one-day basis, the computer-based program enables representatives from school districts to meet with graduates from some 20 universities and colleges In Kentucky and surrounding states. The program, now three years old is organized and coordinated by Eastern's Division of Career Development and Placement. The programs success can be attributed to the convenience of giving graduates the chance to meet with recruiters from as far away as Florida and Louisiana. According to the director of the program. Art Harvey, there has been as many as 50 job offers during each year of the program. The program Is organized by accept- ing applications from graduates and recruiters and matching these applications through a computer. Interviews are scheduled, based on the computer matches.

15 Political Science Students Honored

Fifteen students have been initiated into the University's chapter of Pi Sigma Alpha, the national political science hon- or society. The EKU chapter also honored an Eastern alumnus, Marion Campbell, who is Kentucky's State Police Commissioner. While serving as a State Police trooper, Campbell continued to do part-time study at Eastern and eventually earned both undergraduate law enforcement and graduate public administration degrees. It is for the excellence of that study as well as for his subsequent distinguished contribution to Kentucky government that he was honored. The 15 students honored are mostly seniors and graduate students. They are: KUi4LUMNI William Boner, Richmond; Karen Cassidy, Mt.
