Business Meeting

President's Report - Richard Barnes

New Board members and guests were introduced.

Mr. Barnes reminded student members of their Student Center mail boxes and asked that Board Members check them regularly.

Mr. Barnes announced the date of the President's Convocation, September 26, and suggested that Board Members attend if possible.

Director' s Report - Fall W. Larson

Mr. Larson reported that the Student Center Building is in better condition than on opening day in .April, 1959. He attributed much of this achievement to efforts and capability of Harold Martinson, the Sr. Caretaker of the Student Center Building .

Borne of the new 26 display units have arrived and are in use. They are property of the Chort uourse Department and are assigne.4 to the Student Center for exclusive use in that building. The group of 26 units consists of 12 curved units and 14 straight. The new Student Manager for 1963--'64 is Howard Kittleson. His dutie s are to provide needed supervision of fac ilities for special events such as banquets, conventions and larger social programs. -2-

Program Consultant' s Report - Mary Ellen Faricy

The Student Center sponsored 41 activities this summer. Attendance was down about 1,000 due partly to the lighter music hour program scheduling. Ten students worked on summer programs which included two international student prograrns, one gra uate student outing and three dances. Miss Faricy stated that student involvement in programming should be re -evaluated.

Mr. Larson informed the group that the cost of subsidizing the summer program was not taken from those students' winter fees. This year $200 was alloted for summer programs from the Summer Sessions Office. Operation of the building facilities inthe summer period is subsidized from students' fees. canding Committee epo rts

Executive Committee - Richard Barnes

Mr. Barnes called the Board' s attention to the copies of the agenda and said that this tentative agenda would be in effect until the Executive Committee has had a chance to meet and discuss any needed changes.

The Association of College Unions, Region 7 Conference will be held on Nov- ember 7,8, and 9th at Coffman Memorial Union. Robert Stricker and David Miller were asked to leada topic discussion atthe conference. The title of the discussion is "Are You Fulfilling the Needs of Your Campus?"

House and Finance Committee - David Mille r

Mr. Miller reported that the bowling alley rates were lowered to 25¢ per line during the summer. A report was distributed showing the results of the change. Lineage increased 39%, bowling income increased 6.3% and total Gopher Hole (games area) increased 12.8% over the previous summer when rates were not. changed.

Personnel Committee - Robert Stricker

There are presently three vacancies on the Student Center Board, two from Veterinary Medicine and one from Home Economic s. Appropriate notices have been posted on bulletin boards as required by the By Laws.

Program Committee - Darrell Rupp

Mr. Rupp pointed out several special events from the Fall Quarter Calendar.

/lotion X-1: The Chairman of the Personnel Committee moved that the slate of new chairmen be approved. The motion was seconded and passed. -3-

,ir. Gordon L. Starr commented that the Board appeared to be off to a good tart and congratulated its members on their reports and their ability to obtain ommittee members for the various activities. vir. Miller questianed the adviseability of approving these chairrnen without the 3oard Members seeing or hearinglmore about the candidate st qualifications. iresident Barnes asked the Director to comment on these procedures. Mr. arson agreed that ideally, candidates for chairmen could be screened by a :ommittee with the Board making a final selection. In the practical situation, lowever, this hasn't worked out efficiently for most such appointments. Reasons are: 1. Need for the Boardrs activities to get off to a fast start fall quarter when other groups are just getting organized; 2. The unpredictability of students' availability until fall quarter starts; and 3. Often such screening can be better accomplished in the privacy of an interview and with opportunity to check into the candidites record. Candidates are checked for scholastic eligibility before being recornmended to the board. Purpose of Board approval is to retain Board authority over programs carried out in its name; by these chairmen; providing the chairman with irnplied financial and spiritual support for the risks involved in community programming and insuring that programs carried out by these chairman are planned in accord with policies established by the Board and the University.

Special Events - David Miller Mr. Miller reported that dates for presenting the Student Center story to Freshmen Orientation classes has not yet been set. Dr. DeBoer suggested that Dr. Goodding be consulted about setting such date s.

Public Relations - Kathy Bangsund

Miss Bangsund called attention to the pictures of the Board Members which are presently on display in the display case across from the Information Desk in the Student Center.

The Board should have a booth at the Open House on September 27. Volunteers will be needed to operate this booth. Mary Ellen Faricy suggested that the Board use photographs, booklets and brochures to help acquaint the students with Board activities. She also suggested that Board members should strive to be present for this event. -4 -

Jusiness Meeting

President's Repo rt - Richard Barnes Mr. Barnes read a letter from Dr. John A. Goodding, Assistant Director of Resident Instruction, requesting use of the Student Center's facilitie s and Board suppo rt for the Annual Student-Faculty Reception on October 10, 1963. The Executive Committee approved the request. Parliamentary Procedure booklets were passed out and emphasis was placed on the impo rtant and valuable info rmation contained in this publication. Board members were asked to return books by the clo se of Fall Quarter so that they can be used by other groups. David Miller will serve as recorder for the A.C.U. workshop assignment on November 7, 8 and 9, 1963. He will be working with Robe rt Stricker who will be leading the workshop discussion titled "A re You Fulfilling the Needs o f Your Campus ?" Rudy Hasbargen has been appointed M.S.A. representative from the Board for the remainder of the Quarter. -2-

Director's Report - Paul W. Larson Mr. Larson repo rted that the Student Center has begun the new academic year smoothly with heavy use of meeting rooms and Snack Bar fac ilities. The unusually pleasant warm weather has caused some reduced patronage of the Games facilities. Some congestion in scheduling meeting rooms has been noted, caused, in part, by organizations making long -term reservations and failing to cancel them when their schedules change. This problem is receiving appropriate attention. Program Consultant's Report - Mary Ellen Faricy The Minnesota Daily Repo rter assigned to the St. Paul campus has resigned her post. At present there is no replacement. Because of this, Board members were reminded to advise chairmen to put forth special effort to get news directly to the Daily.

Seconded. IvIotion Carried. Motion X-3: Mr. Miller moved to reserve the Student Center Lounge for the annual Student-Faculty Reception on October 10, 1963 1PM. ,n carried. -3-

Mr. Miller reported that we will be developing new procedures in issuing the Student Center's outing equipment forme rly issued by the Skeewaksur group. Use of the new I.D. cards may make it possible to improve efficiency. He pointed out that a system should be used whereby the equipment may be inspected before and after each use.

Some Photo Darkroom equipment is obsolete. Its replacement has been delayed pending dete rmination of its use by students.

The Committee reviewed vacation policies and decided to abide by existing policies for the Fall Quarter holidays.

The small rooms at the end of the Rouser Room will in the future be referred to as Rouser Room "A" and Rouser Room "B" instead of the former Little Rousers "A" and "B". Mr. Miller suggested that sorne attention to decorating in this area will be attempted.

Personnel Committee - Robert Stricker

Mra Stricter introduced the following candidates for the openings on the Board: Kathy Haven - Home Ec., Sue Donsker - Home Ec., Mary Jacobs - Home Ec., Nancy Nietz - Home Ec., Gail Williams - Veterinary Medicine. Kathy Haven and Nancy Nietz were selected as the Home Economics repre.Feet.33,4§78.8 and Gail Williams was appointed to a Veterinary Medicine opening on the Board. Mr. Larson info rmed the Board that the remaining Veterinary Medicine vacancy on the Board is now open to any student.

Program Committee - Darrel Rupp

Mr. Ibipp reported that there will be a meeting of the Program Committee today at 3:00. At this time the Committee will discuss Fall Quarter Programming with Mr. Dahle of the St. Paul Campus Chorus.

Mr. Rupp reminded the Board that there are still several chairmanship openings and suggested that posters be made to be placed in Bailey Ha],1 and elsewhere announc ing these vacancies. The matter was referred to the Personnel Committee. -4 -

Twylla Reese said that the Homecoming Dance Plans are going well.

She also reminded the Board that there is still no chairman for the Dance Instruction program. The first dance instruction was held on Wednesday, October 2. The total attendance was 33 with the men holding a very definite majority.

Mr. Larson reported that weare:particularly fortunate this year in having one of the best dance instructors available anywhe re.

Fine Arts and Crafts - Mary Ellen Faricy

Miss Faricy reported that the 35 paintings currently on display in the Student Center are from the Michigan Water Color Society.

Graduate Students - Jeanne Muyskens

The first Grad Bag of Fall Quarter was held yesterday. The relatively small attendanc e (12) wa s attributed to the fact that very few students apparently read the posters. Miss Muyskens said that some publicity letters would be sent before the next meeting of the group.

Ho spitality

From 700 to 800 persons attended the Fall Open House. About $150.00 was spent on this event.

Mr. Kanatz announced that there are four openings on the Board of Publications. He urged that someone from the St. Paul Campus apply for one of these openings.

Minutes of October 3, 1963, meeting were approved as published.

Business Meeting

President's R.eport - Richard Barnes Mr. Barnes introduced Mr. Fred McCormick to the Board and announced that he was attending today' s meeting in place of Mr. Gordon Starr. Board membership cards and keys were presented to new Board members; Kathy Haven, Nancy Nietz, Gail Williams, Keith Loken and Rudy Hasbargen. A Board key was also given to David Miller. Twylla Reese was called upon to give the Board some pointers on Parliamentary Procedure. Some of the items included were: 1. A motion should not be discussed until it has been formally presented. 2. Discussion must be pertinent to the motion. 3. Only one motion may be considered at one time. 4. A motion should begin with the words "I move."

Mr. Barnes announced that new Board members could pick up their Board folders after the meeting or later at the Information Desk.

He reminded the Board of the Student-Faculty Rec eption tonight in the Student Center. -2-

Director's Report - Paul W. Larson Mr. Larson circulated a post card which he received recently from Mr. Richard Lyman, former Board President. Mr. Lyman is currently serving with the Peace Corp Project in Africa. We have been notified by University Food Services of a revision in catering policy and banquet prices. Because of the difficulties experienced in obtaining student employees to serve dinners during vacation periods, banquet and luncheon service will not be available during Christmas, Spring and Summer vacation periods. Formerly there was a distinction in banquet and luncheon prices for campus and non-University groups with the latter paying somewhat higher prices. This distinction has now been eliminated. Prices of meals have been revised as follows:

Old Price New Price

Breakfast $1.10 $1.10 min.

Lunch 1.25 1.40 min.

Dinner 1.95 2.25 min. Roast beef, Swiss Steak " 2.20 2.40 min. Chicken, Roast turkey, Ham, 11 2.65 2.75 min. Broiled or roast beef tenderloin

Mr. Larson reported that a study of Banquet use of the Ballroom for last year showed a reduction of 44% in the number of banquets from 1960-61. Since use of the Ballroom for banquets is one source of revenue to main- tain it for conferences and other educational purposes (without rental or use charges) this loss and further losses that might result will be a matte r of serious financ ial concern to the Board. He suggested that the matter be referred to the House and Finance committee for study of the implications and a repo rt.

Executive Committee Report - Ric hard Barnes Mr. Barnes announced the following sponsorship and committee appointments for new Board members:

Sponsorships: Fine Arts & Crafts - Kathy Haven Married Students - Gail Williams Ho spitality - Nancy Nietz

Linda Peery has reque sted use of a desk in the Corral for her work with the Campus Chest Drive from October 4 through November 15, 1963.

Motion X -4: Mr. Miller moved that a desk be assigned to the Campus Che st Drive representative, Linda Peery, fo r the period of October 4 through November 15, 1963. Seconded. Motion carried.

Personnel Committee - Robert Stricker

Mre Stricker.reminded the Board that there is still one Veterinary Medicine position available on the Board. It was sugge sted that a po ste r announcing this opening be placed in the lobby of the Student Center and applications be accepted for an additional week. It is now open to any student on campus.

Program - Darrel Rupp

Mr. Rupp announced that plans to offer bridge instruction have been postponed until winter .

Some social education will be attempted with "table tents" in the Rouser Room suggesting desired improvements in table manners.

It has been decided to delay Board sponsorship of Co-Rec nights in the gymnasium until colder weather.

Dance Area - Twylla Reese

The attendance at last night's Dance Instruction was 41 including 11 girls and 30 nlen.

Motion X-5: Miss Reese moved that Mary Dundas be appointed Dance Instruction Chairman and Mary Jacobs be appointed the chairmanship for the Presidents' Ball. Seconded. Motion carried. -4 -

Discussion Area - Darrel Rupp

Motion X-6: Mr. Rupp moved that Jean Sear be appointed Chairman for the "Now Hear This" committee. Seconded. Motion carried.

Mr. Rupp reported that he attended the last meeting of the Toasters. He said that this group is beginning the year very well.

Games and Outings - John Butler

Mr. Butler told the Board that the appearance of Miss San Lynn Merrick at the Gopher Hole yesterday was a very successful event with about 175 students attending the exhibitions. Miss Merrick is the National Collegiate Billiards Champion. Mr. Robert Whitman served as chairman for the program.

Graduate Students - Jeanne Muyskens

Miss Muyskens said that some traditional resistance is being experienced in getting graduate students to come to the Grad Bag sessions. At yesterday's meeting, there were 10 students present. She said that for the next three meetings, films would be part of the program.

She reported that a previously scheduled hike has been cancelled and a chili supper has been planned instead. Later in November the group will have a party at Pinewood Club.

Music and Shows - Rudy Hasbargen

Plans for the Homecoming Style Show, under the chairmanship of Helen Gatheridge, are coming along nicely.

Motion X-7: Mr. Hasbargen moved that Twylla Rothi be appointed chairman of the Homecoming Varsity Show. Seconded. Motion carried.

Old Business

Miss Faricy announc ed that the Skeewaksur Hayride will be held tomorrow night at the Wagon Wheel. The cost will be approximately $1.00. Cars will be leaving the Student Center at 7:00 PM. -5-

New Bus ine s s

Dean MeFarland stated that, in his opinion, cornmittee appointments could be made without specific approval of the Board. He said that he felt the individual sponsors were capable of making the necessary decisions. He said that the Board meetings ran very smoothly and the machine ry seemed to be performing effic iently, but he felt that time should be made available for discussion in depth of campus programming matters.

Mr. Miller pointed out that much of the Board's programming work and policy formulation is hammered out in committee meetings when more time is available for consideration of matters 'tin depth" and when more free and open discussion can take place without the public ity which might result from Board meetings which are open meetings.

Mr. Barnes suggested that routine matters could be eliminated from the Board meetings as long as they are included in the minutes.

Mr. Kanatz reminded the Board that there is not always adequate time for full Board discussion, but said that Board members should strive to acquaint themselves with every active area under the Board.

Mr. Barnes informed the Board that at the next meeting sponsors should be prepared to discuss at least one activity of their respective areas.

Mr. Larson suggested that the compatability which does seem to characterize the Board's operation most of the time is not necessarily symbolic of sterility. He did, however, state that livelier discussions could stimulate the Board meetings and make them mo re effective. He said that everyone present may beguilty, to some degree, of not raising questions adequately about that which is not perfectly clear. He encouraged members to que stion, oppose and present different opinions whenever the oppo rtunity presents itself.He felt that existing machinery served well the variety of functions required of the Board but implementation is needed.

Business Meeting

President' s Report - Richard Barnes

Mr. Barnes introduced Mr. Richard Ambrose to the Board.

The Board was reminded of the Homecoming date, October 26, 1963.

Director's Repo rt - Paul W. Larson

Mr. Larson notified the Board that three newly-arrived rosters at the Information Desk in the Student Center are available for use by committee personnel. They are the Directory of St. Paul Campus Department Staff and Faculty, t he Directory of Student Organizations and a listing of the new P.O. assignments. -2-

Executive Committee Repo rt - Richard Barnes

Mr. Barnes called attention to the fact that the Board schedules one evening meeting per quarter for purposes of more lengthly discussion of matters which cannot be adequately covered during the noon meetings. This quarter a dinner meeting is planned to be held at Hamline University. I may be a joint meeting with the Student.Council of the St. Paul Campus. Tentatively the date for this meeting is Thursday evening, October 31.

The Executive Committee has a responsibility at the beginning of each academic year to acquaint members of the Board with the Conduct Control policy. Twylla Reese directed a question to Mr. Larson asking what was considered to be the chain of command in case of a disturbance at a Student Center activity. Mr. Larson explained that the responsibility for minor infraction in such a situation would first be in the hands of the student committee responsible for the event. If of more serious nature, the problem would be referred to a Board member closely connected with the event, to the Executive Committee or to the Board itself, depending on the seriousness of the problem. Student Center employees and the University Police may always be called in to provide moral and physical assistance if needed. (Copy of Conduct Control Policy attached to this copy of Minutes.)

Standing Committee Repo rts

House & Finance - David Mille r

Mr. Miller reported that the House & Finance Committee discussed the problem of use of the ballroom for banquet service during vacation periods at their last meeting on October 14, 1963.

He. announced that the Committee decided against subscribing to the New York Times and the Christian Science Monitor magazines. He said that the Student Center will not be subscribing to the Show magazine at present because of apparent limited appeal in the opinion of committee members. No student interest in the magazine has been demonstrated to the committee. Mr. Kanatz commented that we should not strive to appeal to the mode of thought that we find today. He said that more emphasis must be placed on what is to come in the future.

Kathy Haven and Paul Larson will look into the possibility of decorating Rouser Rooms A&B and will report their findings at a later date. -3-

Mr. Miller reviewed the Summary of Income & Expense Reports which were distributed to all Board members. He asked that these reports be kept as they will be of impo rtance at a later date. Additional copies of this report may be obtained at the Information Desk.

Personnel Committee - Robert Stricker

Mr. Stricker announced that applications for the Board opening will be closed after tomorrow when the current applicants are inte rviewed. He said that recommendations for the opening should be ready by the time of the next meeting.

Program - Darrel Rupp

Mr. Rupp said that the Board recently received a letter from St. Catherine' s College asking if we would like to revive a program of "information and idea exchanging" with their Student Union. This possibility will be discussed at the next meeting of the Program Committee on Tuesday.

Public Relations - Gail Williams

Mr. Williams info rmed the Board that, as a part of the A.C.U. Conference, a tour of the Twin City College Unions will be con- ducted on November 8. This tour will visit the Student Center from 4:45 PM to 5:10 PM on that day. There will be between 60 and 80 people in this group. The planning committee requests student guides, preferably Board members.

Motion X-8: Mr. Williams moved that the Board authorize refreshments and a welcoming sign for the tour of the Region 7 Conference

group. Seconded. .Motion carried.

Dance - Twylla Reese

Attendance at last evening's Dance Instruction was 33. Seven oftheseweregirls. -4 -

The publicity for the Homecoming Dance is moving somewhat slowly. It is impo rtant that step s be taken to mo re adequately publicize this event. Decorations for the Dance have been decided upon and other arrangements seem to be under control.

An emergency meeting of the Dance Committee was held last Monday to decide whether or not to permit a dance at the Student Center after the Varsity Show on Friday night. It was decided to ask Student Council if they would co-sponsor an event of this nature. If the dance is held, it will not be publicized until Friday evening so as to not interfere with the ticket sales for the Homecoming Dance the following night.

There is a need for additional and improved talent for the Varsity Show. It has been apparent that talent programs on the St. Paul Campus have not reached desireable standards.

Game s & Outing s - John Butle r

Mr. Butler announced that the election of Skeewaksur officers has been completed but the results are not available at this time.

Graduate Students - Jeanne Muyskens

Miss Muyskens said that the attendance at yesterday' s Grad Bag meeting showed little improvement over the previous meeting. She has sent letters to the Graduate students announc ing the Grad Bag Lunches.

. The Graduate Students are planning a chile supper to be held after the Homecoming Game on October 26, 1963.

Hospitality - Nancy Nietz

Penny Spong will b the chairman of the Coffee Hours this year. Billie Price is unable to accept the responsibility of Chairman of Sanka Seminar. Currently the office personnel are handling the arrangements for Sanka Seminars. Mr. Larson suggested that we find a method whereby we can make known that the Board is providing the refreshments for these gatherings. -5-

Married Students -

A chairman is still needed for the Married Student Area.

Music and Shows - Rudy Hasbargen

Mr. Hasbargen told the Board that the Style Show held yesterday, October 17, was a huge success.

A Music Hour, featuring the Johnson Boys, will be held in the Student Center Rouser Room on Friday, October 18 at 3:00 PM.

Special Events - David Mille r

A chairman is still needed to assume the responsibility for the Christmas Party. It is as yet undec ided whether or not the party will be open to the entire campus or be restricted to Board members and their guests.

Old Business

There was no old business.

New Business

Motion X-9: David Miller moved that area sponsors be allowed to appoint chairman without Board app roval. Seconded. Discussion: Twylla Reese said that this matter was discussed at the last Executive Committee meeting. She said that there are advantages to the motion, but that the individual area sponsors are not always aware of all the qualifications (or their absence) that must be considered before an appointment is accomplished. She felt that the candidates for chairmanships should be invited to a Board meeting so that the entire Board could get acquainted with the individual. Mr. Larson commented that the Board already had available the mechanic D; of the motion on the floor and there would be no change in actual procedure if the motion was passed. He reminded the Board members that they are responsible for whatever decisions are -6 -

made on their behalf by these activity chairmen. They act in the name of the Board and therefore the entire Board needs some involvement in whatever action is taking place. These comrnittee chairmen must also have the authority and resources of the Board available. Mr. Kanatz added that appointments by the area sponsor could also involve some problems when there are a number of candidatgs for .one chairmanship. Motion defeated.

The meeting was adjourned.

The next meeting of the Board will be held Thursday, October 24, 1963, at 12 noon. Lunch will beavailable at 11:55 AM in Room 206.

3JECT: Conduct Control Policy

: St. Paul Campus Student Center Board of Governors is mindful of the significant e we play in the organization of the Student Center program and of our responsi- ties for its success. Because of the nature and function of this program, and with relationship to the whole University, we realize our responsibilities for insuring cially acceptable" conduct by a large number of students, through their member- p in a variety of groups varying from small groups of several students to activities luding a large proportion of the campus population. feel that through experience and time we have developed a very satisfactory policy ough which deviations from the code of " socially accepted" conduct may be resolved. :onsideration of the complexity of the Student Cent er Organization, it has been found st desirable to handle minor infractions of Student Center rules through policies horized by the Student Center Board and administered through members of the dent Center staff .

)blems of a more serious nature are brought to th.e attention of the Executive com- tee for its consideration a.nd for action. Often the S.A.B. representative is con- ted and one or more alternatives of action decided upon. Immediate action is taken en deemed necessary; but if this is not imperative, the matter may be presented to the ird at their formal weekly meeting. It is noteworthy that a representative of the Stu - :t Activities Bureau is a sta.nding member in regular attendance at our weekly meetings . re consideration should be given to problems of serious nature that can easily arise Eunctions involving a large number of the campus' population. While everything hin reason is done before hand to discourage and prevent such situations from sing 9 the Student Center Board does have a prescribed course of procedure in the mt that they do arise . Civil Law would be called in if the situation requires such ion. There-after, it is brought to the attention of the Executive Committee of the dent Center Board, the S.A.B. representative, and others involved, and a course of ion is decided upon similar to that described in paragraph 3. respect to the Conduct Control Policy and as a result of analyzing the complexity of situation as it applies to this Organization D it seems apparent that the Control Licy culminate s into formal written form a policy which has been adopted and iered to in the past by the Student Center Board. At this point, it is necessary to nt out that the Executive Committee has been named responsible for the annual bal presentation of the policy to the Board members.

want to affirm the desirable and necessary close cooperation and communication ween the Student Center Organization, the University Administration, the Student ti.vities Bureau, and the Senate Committee on Student Affairs. We believe this is :essary and desirable not only for the interpreta,tion of University policy, but for improvement of the total student activity program, and for the welfare of all.

Student Center events is a decision of the sponsors working with the chairman of the particular event. He pointed out that it is possible for the chairman to hire custodial assistance for the clean-up duties but this procedure will deplete activity budgets more rapidly than the alternative.

Personnel - Robert Stricker

Mr. Stricker delivered the following message on behalf of the Personnel Committee:

"It is the opinion of the Personnel Committee that both the sponsors and the Board members in general do not have an adequate knowledge as to what the various sponsorships involve because of our yearly turnover in personnel and because of changing aseignments. Because of this fact members of the Board are sometimes at a loss when asked about some phase of the Board' s activities. Also, the sponsors are caught without an adequate knowledge of a program when talking to prospeotive chairman. The common crutch is to tell them to see a staff member. This doesn't show organization or leadership on our part. For these reasons we would like to suggest that each sponsor write up. sid present a resume on his area of specialization. (This doe s not include the standing committee s.) The Personnel Committee has made up a sho rt outline which you may or inay not follow. But we believe, when answered, that these que stions will give you a better understanding of your area. This would also be of great assistance to future members of the Board."

Mr. Stricker called on Darrel Rupp to give an example of the resume desired. Mr. Rupp spoke on the Discussion Area, emphasizing how closely this area is related to education. He said that it is important to consider -3-

the needs of the campus and be sure that discussion areas are available to all students.

He then reviewed tha various groups on campus which deal with the discussion program, telling when they meet and giving a brief outline of the groups' activities.

At the close of his report, Mr. Stricker asked Board members to complete their resumes and submit to him (Student Center P,O.) by Monday, Dec - ennber 2, 1963.

Business Meeting

President' s Report - Ric hard L. Barnes

Mr. Barnes welcomed the guests at today' s meeting, Messrs. Standly and Tufte. They are members of a Peace Corps Rec ruiting 06am which will be at the University of Minnesota next week from Washington, D. C. toparticipate in Peace Corps Week activities.

P rogram Consultant' s Report - Mary Ellen Faricy

Miss Faricy called attention to the Program Summary, Program Budget report and activity committee rosters which were distributed prior to the meeting. She commented that the Program Budget looked very good at the end of the Fall Quarter period. She a sked that any corrections or additions to the Board Sponsors and Corn- mittee Chairmen roster be brought to the attention of Mr. Stricker of the Personnel Committee. -2-

Miss Faricy's comments on the Quarterly Report were: "The number of students who respond to our activities is one means of evaluating our programming work. Noting the decrease in program attendance for the Summer and Fall Quarter periods this academic year from the same periods for last year, it appears on first glance that we may have failed somewhere along the line. I must report, however, that the reduction of the number of musical noon hour programs, the cancellation of programs due to the death of President Kennedy and the discontinuance of the SCBOG program for the orientation of Freshmen account for nearly 2/3 of the attendance decrease. I am confident that the Program Committee will evaluate last quarter' s activities and make plans for improving our programming efforts."

Director' s Report - Paul W. Larson

Mr. Larson reminded the Board that last quarter the St. Paul Campus Food Service department reported inability to provide banquet service during vacation periods because of lack of student help. This resulted in a problem with a 4-H banquet scheduled for Januar·.·. 3 , 1964. After some negotiation between the sponsors of the banquet and the University Foud Service department, the banquet was served as scheduled in the North Star Ballroom by importing four student employees from Coffman Union. There is a problem in serving banquets and luncheons during the vacation periods since student employees constitute an impo rtant part of the Food Service Staffs of both the St. Paul and Minneapolis Cam- puses. However, these vacation periods are also the times when the facilities are most available for use by conference groups without interfering seriously with student use. Vacation use also offers oppo rtunity to help finance college union operation during periods when it might othe rwise be necessary to shut down the physical plants for economic reasons.

Mr. Larson reported that Mr. Starr was able to leave Abbott Hospital after a confinement of nearly two months.

Executive Committee Report - Richard L. Barnes

Mr. Barnes asked all Board members to fill out schedule cards for Winter Quarter and turn them in at the Info rmation Desk. He also asked that the chairmen of standing committees make arrange - ments for scheduling their Winter Quarter meetings as soon as po s s ible . -3-

Fine Arts & Crafts - Mary Ellen Faricy

Miss Faricy called attention to the two fine exhibits now on display in the Student Center. The Second Floor Ga]lery is hosting a collection of oils done by three women artists from White Bear. Tb.e First Floor Gallery has an exc ellent collec - tion by Mr. Phillip Thompson.

Executive Committee-Report - Richard L. Barnes at their last meeting the Executive Committee discussed the possibilities for holding evening Board meetings. The committee decided against weekly evening meetings for the following reasons: 1) Transportationproblem forsome members. 2) Itwould be difficult to schedule a night which would be available to eve ryone. 3) It would be an additional burden for faculty and staff members to attend evening meetings. Mr. Barnes reminded the Board that they can petition for an evening meeting or an extra meeting and that the Board President can call such a meeting if the need arises. Mr. Barnes circulated a suggestion sheet in an attempt to get ideas for discussion at our regularly scheduled evening meeting which is held once per quarter. The date for this meeting has not yet been decided. Next week Mr. Barnes, Mr. Larson, Miss Faricy and Miss Reese will be meeting with the newly arrived foreign exchange students on campus. The purpose of this meeting will be to acquaint these foreign students with the activities of the Student Center and the Student Center Board of Governors.

Mr. Miller repo rted that the decorating plans for Rouser A&B will be resumed as soon as a new committee member is assigned. An attempt will be made to complete the decorating by the end of Winte r Qua rte r. Mr. Miller called attention to the Student Center press camera and tape recorder saying that these were being used by student organizations but that we had no recorded policy for such use. Motion X-38: Mr. Miller moved that the Board accept the following policies regarding the tape recorder and camera: "The Student Center Press Camera is to be used only by members of the Student Center organization, to include staff members, Board members, and committee members; such users must demonstrate that they are qualified in its operation. The Student Center Tape Recorder is generally to be used for activities related to the Student Center with exceptions being inade at the discretion of the Director. Seconded. Motion carried. Motion X-39: Mr. Miller moved that the Board adopt the following House Rule regarding the display of signs on the exterior of the Student Cente r building. l'Signs are to be displayed on the Student Center building only with the approval of the Student Center Board or the Director when the Board is not in session." Seconded. Motion carried. Mr. Miller reported that the committee.is .studying the use of the Photo Dark Room and its equipment. At present the committee is waiting for an expression of needs from campus photographers. With spring not far off, the Board will need face the necessity for strengthening policies for issuing outing equipment. This matte r wa s referred to the Games and Outings chairman, John Butler for study. The House and Finance Committee will meet on the second and fourth Mondays of each month this quarter at 3:00 PM. -4

Mr. Stricker called on Miss Muyskens and Mr. Hasbargen to present their area reports. Their reports follow: SPONSORSHIP EVALUATION

Graduate Student A rea

The purposes of the graduate student activity area include the following:

A. To aid graduate students in becoming acquainted with other grad students in varied areas of study.

B. To introduce new graduate students into a social group and to help them to meet others on a similar level of study.

C. To provide some organized form of social activity for graduate students.

D. To aid foreign grad students in becoming a part of the graduate group. This area is directed towards all the graduate students on the St. Paul campus of the University of Minnesota, and functions mainly as a social group with the Graduate Representative on the Student Center Board of Governors acting as the area sponsor abd organizing the group. Ap- pointed chairman and committees plan the noon "Grad Bag Lunches" and other larger events which are scheduled throughout the year. In the past two years the activities that have come under this area have varied greatly -- and it seems the group itself must decide what will best suit the purposes of the area. During the 1961-62 year, Grad Bag lunches were held every other week and one large event was planned for the year. This event was a formal dance which was quite un-successful as far as attendance was concerned. During the 1962-63 year, many events on a smaller scale (not of smaller attendance, how - ever) and of less cost were planned, being much more successful since the group has such diverse interests and backgrounds; and an activity that appeals to one portion of the group never seems to appeal to the group as a whole.

The activities coming under this area include: 1. Grad Bag Lunches, held once a week or once every two weeks. These are held in a reserved room in the Student Center and vary in nature. The lunch may be i.n the form of a business meeting but it seems more successful to have a guest speaker, slides or a movie and to discuss business at the beginning or end of the lunch hour. -2-

2. Fall Party, held near the beginning of fall quarter with the purpose of acquainting new graduate students with the group when they first begin graduate study.

3. Other events scheduled throughout the year which vary in type from Easual to semi-formal. The dates for these events are set after the school activity calendar is out.

Previous events of this type include: Symphony concerts, supper at a pancake house, informal parties, an ice skating party, bowling, canoe trip (Saturday), beach party at Perch Lake in Wis- consin, and smelt fishing on the North Shore.

Changes made to improve the program this year include:

A. No time or money has been spent on decorations this year since the grad students don't have such time and the decorations aren't needed for many events or for the places we have chosen for our events. The money instead is spent on publicity and food.

B. We are working harder to include foreign students since this group has probably the best oppo rtunity to make them a part of a SCBOG sponso red activity . Although niany foreign students don't feel included by simply receiving a lea£Let or seeing a poster, they do feel included and are inclined to attend if personally invited by someone they have previouslyrnet.

C. The days for holding Grad Bag Lunches have been rearranged. They are not being held the first or last week of classes in each quarter and are held on alternate Tuesdays and Wednesdays during the quarter so fewer sta:lents have cenflicts during the lunches.

The most significant problem in programming for this area is the problem of attendance. In an area such as the Twin Cities the grad students have no trouble finding worthwhile events to attend.

Also, graduate students do not seem to see posters and NEVER WILL DEFINITELY COMMIT THEMSELVES beforehand as to whether or not they will attend an event. To overcome this problem this year (1963-64), we are delivering notices to all graduate students through their departments and are relying on personal contact (rather than solely on sign-up sheets which we still use) to know ahead app roximate].y how many persons to plan fo r .

This group is not an easy group to work with, but is a group which makes any event, small or large, a great deal of fun. I haven't decided -3-

if graduate school attracts students with a great sense of humor or not -- but the sense of humor is certainly held by the group.

JM/saj OUTLINE OF MUSIC AND SIIOWS

Rudy Hasbargen

The Music and Shows area is perhaps the most challenging sponsorship area available on the Board. The diversity of shows presented under this area provides the sponsor with an exc ellent opportunity to exercise his imagination. The rise or fall of this area will depend on the sponsoris ability to perceive the students' wishes and needs (which may not be the same) and apply this perception in selecting programs which will be valuable to all student s.

The programs in this area are designed to enlighten the student body through both entertainment and education. Some programs are presented merely for entertainment while others are designed to be educational as well as entertaining. Still other productions are presented to give the students an oppo rtunity to participate in the show.

The main three types of programs which come under the area of music and shows are music hours, style shows and talent shows. Let us discuss each in that order.

Music hours are usually not scheduled on the quarter calendar but rather are given on short notice whenever performers can be found. The performances are given in the Rouser Room, and usually last about an hour. The program could conceivably consist of anything from tap dancing to comedy to folk singing; although the latter is the type usually presented. These shows are to give the student a brief period of entertainment and relaxation at no cost to hima There are not a great deal ofprogramming details involved inthese shows. Risers, mic rophones, and pelhaps a spot light are all that isnecessary inthe way of stage set-ups. Someone, of course, if needed to introduce the act and thank them when they have finished. One diffic ulty with these shows is in the area of publicity. Because these shows are often given on sho rt notice, it may be difficult to info rm the campus as to the date and time of the perforn:lance. For this reason, the shows are usually scheduled at a time when the most people are likely to be in the Rouser Room, such as at noon. A good source for obtaining the performers are the "entertainment house S" down town who usually have different groups appearing every month or two. A true extrovert is needed for the job of contacting these graups, for he must enjoy approaching and talking to strange people. A little sales quality is also needed for we try to get these groups to appear in the Student Center at no expense to the Board.

Style shows are usually presented only a couple times each year. The first one is presented in the fall about one week before homecoming, with a second possibly spring quarter. The purpose of the style show is not only -2- to display the latest in college wear, but also to inform the students of proper attire for various occasions. The clothes are worn bythe student models and are borrowed from some cooperating down town clothing store who may also provide a narrator for the show. Since this is usually the first presentation from the music and shows area which is scheduled on the fall quarter calendar, it is helpful to have a chairrnan for this event befo re summer vacation. Like the music hours, style shows are also presented in the Rouser Room, so similar staging chores are required. The style show, however, requires a larger group of personnel. Approximately five men and five women must be found to do the modeling plus an organiat and na r rato rs.

The third type of program which comes under the music and shows area are the talent shows. These,too, are usually presented twice a year. The first one being fall quarter the night before homecoming, while the second is in spring qua rter in conjunction with Minno Royal. These shows are designed both to entertain the audience and also to provide talented students an oppo rtunity to show their talents and be recognized for them. These programs are presented either in the North Star Ballroom or Coffey Hall auditorium. The fall talent show is held in Coffey Hall because the ballroom is being decorated for the homecoming dance. Various light - ing, deco ration and publicity problems must again be taken care of. How- ever, the major concern will probably be over securing a suitable array of talent for the show by stimulating an interest in participation in the show by the students. Then, too, a watchful eye must be kept to insure that all acts performed are in good taste.

Another type of programming which is receiving more and more attention under the area of music and shows is that of evening programs by semi-professional groups. These may range from semi-classical productions of Gershwin-Hern or Rogers and Hammerstein to concerts and symphonies performed by large orchestras. The purpose of this type of programming is to give the student an opportunity to expose himself to all types of musi c. Long-range planning may be necessary here to schedule these performances at a desirable time. With this type of program less student personnel is required in the production, but more emphasis should be placed on publicity. These programs are gaining acceptance among the students and should have a good future for further expansion.

This outline, of course, can only skim the surface of the many possible programs and means of presenting them that the area of music and shows opens up to its sponsor. This sponsorship area is far from being dull and unchanging. But it can only move as fast and change as much as the person in charge of it.

Program Committee Report - Darrel Rupp

At the January 15 meeting of the Program Committee the idea of carnpus needs versus campus desires was discussed in an attempt to decide whether the Student Center should emphasize t'crowds or quality" when planning it' s programs.

At the January 22 meeting several ideas were discussed as possible future progranis. These ideas included the suggesting of possible speakers, a fashion clinic and a general ttgo -ahead attitude" in order to further student participation. The Program Committee also suggested that the activity chairmen be given an opportunity to attend the Board meetings so that they can become better acquainted with the Board functions and Board personnel.

HOSPITALITY

Submitted by

Nancy Nietz Dec. 2, 1963 SPONSORSHIP EVALUATION

1. What isthepurpose ofour area? The Hospitality area of the Student Center is one of the most important. As one of the Student Center brochures states, "Hospitality is the Keystone of the Student Center." It is our responsibility to make sure that all students, faculty and guests are welcome at all n-- --4.--- 1-«42- _4-3=fr«-p-Inin--a-_nu -inifj times. These people are given a chance to meet on an informal basis. Special programs are offe red to enrich campus life. Hospitality means welcoming the entire campus and making sure that eve ryone who wishes

can take part in Student Center functions. 2. What activities come under this area and what do they entail ? A. Coffee Hours --where students and staff may meet info rmally B.Qpen Houses--at which new students and gue sts meet the campus

and the Student Center C.Receptions--which bring recognized talents into the social sit-

uat io n

D. Sanka Seminars--in which instructors are invited to conduct their regularly-scheduled classes in the more info rmal at

mosphere of the Student Center facilities

3. Long-range planning Rec eptions and especially Open Houses have oppo rtunities and prob-

lems that need be taken into consideration.

4. What changes are being made-- A. More Sanka Seminars are being scheduled -- it seems that students and the staff have found them to be very successful. Page 2

B. We are trying to make our Coffee Hours something more than just a "get together" for coffee and cookies. By serving different and various kinds of coffee and scheduling Coffee Hours at other times beside the regular coffee hour time, wemaypro-

duce a different result from our gatherings.

5. Impo rtant Problems: How do we get more people to participate

in our Receptions ?

A. Perhaps we need more advertisements - in different places.

B. The more personal touch--each person on Board needs an idea

of what is going on in all the other areas - adve rtise by word of

nnouth.

If we are enthusiastic about Student Center activities, our chair-

men may pick up this enthusiasm, and in turn it will spread to

the committees, and on into the student body.

C. Daily - it helps to have activities covered in the newspaper FINE ARTS AND CRAFTS SPONSORSHIP

Kathy Haven & Sue Donsker SPONSO RSHIP EVALUATION OF FINE ARTS AND CRAFTS AREA

1. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF OUR AREA ?

The foremost objective of the Fine Arts and Crafts Area is to create

new experiences for the public ; not only students, but the faculty and

visitors who visit the St. Paul Student Center. This area should

emphasize the fact that one never finishes learning about art and

culture. There are always new things to discover, thus there are

always nume rous ways in which to create new expe riences for campus

folk. The re should be a constant search for relationships between

Fine Arts and Crafts and the environments of students. Their voca-

tions, hobbies, interests and curiosities should be stimulated. The

purpose of this area is to provide oppo rtunities to become acquainted with a variety of Fine Arts, to relate experiences to one's environment,

to promote questioning attitudes, and to teach.

2. WHAT ACTIVITIES COME UNDER YOUR AREA ?

The Fine Arts and Crafts area offers exhibits of art, photography,

historic inventions, new processes, guided missile development and

info rmation on various fields such as forestry and agricultural econ-

omics. Also inthis area, members plan the showing of movies and

arrange demonstrations of craftwork or hobbies of interest to campus

personnel.

For a smooth running area, one has to find people with a definite

interest in the Fine Arts area. A person with an interest in the Fine Page 2

Arts field will do a more complete job than one who is concerned only with the glo ry o f being a chairman.

Long-range planning is absolutely necessary in order to obtain a variety of Fine Arts and Crafts projects. Arrangements must be made to obtain exhibits to display at a given period on the calendar.

Films for movies must be ordered ahead of scheduled showings and demonstrations must be planned long in advance so the people invol - ved will have had sufficient time to prepare.

3. WHAT CHANGES ARE BEING MADE IN YOUR AREA ?

We are striving to promote a greater student participation in the

Coffee Hours with the artists, the crafts demonstrations, and noon movies. This is being done by more publicity and a small, but potentially successful, "talk-it-up" campaign. Because of our relative isolation on the St. Paul Campus, the Fine Arts people should be constantly on the outlook for something new and interesting. "Some- thing new" is the key phrase under this topic.

4. HAVE YOU CONSIDEREDOR TRIED ANY NEW IDEAS ?

In display and demonstration, we have tried to emphasize the

impo rtance to the student o r amateur of acquiring the ability to see

and taste. Our campus personnel has become increasingly aware of

our exhibits and enjoy discussing them.

Fine Arts should not assume that art has little to do with normal

humdrum daily existence or that one must go to a museum or "gallery" Page 3 to see art, nor that one must have some superior insight or talent in order to appreciate, enjoy or understand art. Something eye-catching is the key phrase under this topic.

5. IDENTIFY WHAT YOUR MOST IMPO RTANT PROBLEM IS.

The majo r problem has been finding reliable people with a definite interest in the Fine Arts area and enough time to do a complete job. There is an ever-increasing constant pressure from studies on today's student. The race is getting faster, thus the time available for extra- curricular activities is getting more limited.

As H. L. Gombrich says, (and the Fine Arts area wishes more people would) we need, "To look at a picture with fresh eyes and to

venture on a voyage of discovery into it is difficult, but it can be a

rewarding task. There is no telling what one might bring home from

such a journey." -3-

Thus, the total cost of such a concert was over $700.00. The LeGault Chorale, held in Winter Quarter, recorded a total income of $138.00 of which the Board cleared $58.40. The total expenses to the Board for both of these fine musical presentations was about $60.00 for app rox- imately $850.00 worth of musical performance.

AREA: SPECIAL EVENTS

I. This area provides necessary the sensitivity to meet rapidly developing needs of stude nts . It is somewhat of a l'catch all" for activities not covered by the othe r a rea s .

Its function is to provide events for which the established program or calender may not be adequate.

II. Activities include: Decorating the Student Center for Christmas and special events, Leadership Recognition Banquet, Spring Camp for Student

Council and SCBOG, and Freshman Orientation sessions.

The Leadership Recognition Banquet requires a considerable amount of long range planning as does the Spring Camp Evaluation event.

III. There are no major changes taking place in this area at the present time. The joint Board and Council meeting this Fall could be a Special

Event function.

IV. I think it would be a good idea to include a Christmas party for SCBOG and possibly Student Council (joint party) in this area.

V. I have not run into any major problems so far.

VI. This area could also conduct surveys to sample student opinion.

GAMES AND OUTINGS

The Games and Outings A rea includes the Skeewaksurs Club, the campus bowling team and other special events having to do with indoo r and outdoor recreation. We try to provide a way for all students to engage in some type of activity "to get away from their books" for awhile and to fill in leisure time desireably. It is important for these people to have opportunity to get some type of exercise. It helps relieve tension and provides a good way to get acquainted with other people. Studies are also benefited because the students feel more relaxed after a good workout on the ski slopes or

in some other activity. The Skeewaksurs Club is currently the largest single activity under the Games and Outings Area. This very active group schedules some sort of activity for practically every weekend. The group does most of its

own planning. Because the size of the organization has increased so tremendously in the past few years we have had to stress more vividly to the members their responsibilities to the club and tothe Student Center. This is very important because an accident could affect the whole organization. Other activities in this area include co-rec nights at the gym and bridge instruction. Co-rec nights are often co-sponsored with other

campus organizations.

Program Committee Report - Rudy Hasbargen At the Monday meeting of the F rogram Committee, some of the events scheduled for Spring Quarter were discussed. It was decided that the "Computer Dance" will be held in Spring Quarter. The exhibit calendar for Spring Quarter has been filled and the committee is currently looking for program ideas for the Student Center's Fifth Birthday Party on April 16. It is the intent of the Committee to combine the birthday theme with the Campus Elections which will be taking place at the same time.

£1*ME.Relations - Gail Williams Mr. Williams brought to the Board's attention some of the problems being encountered by the quality of tobacco being sold in the Student Center as the result of a recent change of vendors by the University Purchasing department. The change came about as the result of a lower bid. Effo rts are being made to correct the situation. fictivity Area Sponsors' Reports

Dance Area - Twylla Reese Miss Reese reported that she hopes to have a chairman for the Computer Dance by the next Board meeting. A general discussion followed dealing with some of the problems to be expected with a dance of this kind and various suggestions for dealing with these problems were offered. It was decided that the matters in question would be discussed further by the Committee and brought before the Board at a later date. Miss Reese reminded the Board of the Valentine Dance, Trumpin' Hearts, which will be held in the Student Center North Star Ballroom on Friday, February 14 from 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM and encouraged all Board members to attend.

2222.-2-nd Outings - John Butler The question whether Skeewaksur officers should be restricted to St. Paul Students was discussed at length.

Executive Committee Report - Richard L. Barnes Mr. Barnes reported that as a result of Motion X -54, the filing fees have been eliminated for Spring Quarter elections effective this year. House and Finance Committee Report - David Mille r Mr. Miller reported that the House and Finance Committee decided against the idea of putting a juke box in the Rouser Room as had been suggested by dormitory counselors. The reasons put forth for this decision are: (1) Experience of othe r student unions has shown that juke boxes actually get very little use. (2) There are impossible problems regarding volume control. (3) The first $40 taken in each month would go to the company that put it in. (4) Other hi fi music and the TV would have to go. Upon careful consideration of these points, it was decided that it would be be st not to install the juke box. The display channels will not be installed in Rouser Rooms A&B because of the $400 expense. The committee decided to wait and see how the campus population increases and if increase is rapid then the possibility will be discussed again. Motion X-62: Mr. Miller moved that the Board appropriate $100 for the completion of the display 'equipment in the Rouser Room. Seconded. Motion carried. Nothing further has been decided on the riew Rouser Room speakers. There is still no available estimate on the cost of repairing the broken equipment from the Photo Dark Room. The directional parking sign and lights have been installed in the parking area in back of Coffey Hall as requested by the Board. The desired cigars and tobaccos are now being received and sold at the Informa - tion De sk.

Personnel Committee Report - Robert Stricker Mr. Stricker distributed a roster of persons being considered for the Recognition Banquet next spring. He explained the recognition code and asked that members consider the names listed and make any corrections or additions they felt necessary. These changes should be mentioned either to Mr. Stricker, Miss Faricy, or a member of the Committee. Jeanne Muyskens will take over the chairnianship of the Personnel Corninittee next quarter in the absence of Mr. Stricker. Miss Reese read her report on the Dance Area Evaluation: EVALUATION ON DANCE AREA

PURPOSE The general function and purpose of this area is to provide entertainment and the oppo rtunity to develop soc ial skills for St. Paul Campus Students.

ACTIVITIES Activities include several informal Rouser Rumpus, Friday night dances each quarter. One Homecoming Dance, a semi formal each quarter, and two or three other large dances each year. The Rouser Rumpus dances are "record hope". These need a committee to plan, organize and supervise the evening. This includes finding entertainment for the evening, if there is to be any. The area sponsor must find a general chairman for this series of dances. The other dances each need a general chairman who in turn has a committee working under him on decorations, program, entertainment, tickets, publicity, and refresh-

ments. Thi s area also includes a dance instruction program for which there is also needed a general chairman who can attend the classes and expedite arrange-

rnents. All of these activites require long range planning so that adequate publicity can be obtained. Probably dance instruction could get by with the lea st publicity, however it is also the activity for which it is most difficult to find a good chair-

man.

k -2-

CHANGES The only real changes being made in the area come in the kind of dances scheduled. The types change from year to year. This year we are having a leap year dance, a computer dance, and are repeating a country-modern which was tried last year with great success.

NEW IDEAS We have tried several things in the dance instruction area including posters and announcements at Rouser Rumpus parties. However we have found that personal contact is most important and the chairman chosen should be an outgoing person who knows many students and one who has a real interest in the area. V/e have also found that having organizations co-sponsor the Rouser Rumpus dances is most successful. They are able to get their name before the campus and it eliminates our needing staff to set up and clean up there by conserving

funds.

MOST IMPORTANT PROBLEM Finding chairman who have the ability, the interest and the time to devote to their area. Many are interested but do not have the ability in that particular area and the job done is then lacking. Time required is mo st often the greatest problem. -3-

Program Committee - Rudy Hasbargen There was no meeting of the Program Committee last week. Public Relations Committee Report - Gail Williams Mr. Williams read a news report from another university union as an example of the complications which can result when there is a lack of adequate student- Faculty administration communication. He commented that the Board provides a good communications link for student-faculty relationships on our compus. "Gritch Weeks' will be featured on the back of the Spring Quarter calendar. Mr. Williams reported on a proposed Department of Student Unions Newsletter . It is currently stymied by publication costs.

Area Sponsors' Reports

Dance Area - Twylla Reese The Dance Instruction class had a party last week along with their regular lessons. The questionnaires have been distributed for the Computer Dance. Miss Reese expressed some problems she is encountering .with the committee in charge of this event. The publicity so far has not been as good as it should be. She asked for the assistance of the living group organizations in publicizing this dance. Mary Ellen Faricy extended special thanks to Kathy Baxter, Syndi MacLaughlin, Rudy Hasbargen, David Miller, Mike Mortensson and the German Students for their assistance in preparing the que stionnaires and handlin g their distribution. Mr. Starr expressed his appreciation for the extra work done by the Student Center staff during his absence.

Fine Arts and Crafts Area - Sue Donsker There was no Ukrainian Egg Decoration's Demonstration last Monday as announced because of the inability to obtain a demonstrater.

The Student Center Board and the Coffman Union Board had a picnic supper at the home of Mr. Stanley J. genberg, University Vice-President. Mr. Wenberg spoke to both boards about the responsibilities such groups have towards the student body and to the University. He noted that such organizations egrn a reputation based on the kind of activities they develop and/or support. Although it is tempting to promote or co-sponsor activities which have their appeal in sensationalism because the news media will give generous coverage to such events, student leaders in an institution of higher learning have an opportunity to apply to their programs (and to the participants in such programs) standards of quality which are commensurate with the intellectual level of the University. While the re needs to be oppo rtunity in this community for expression of all forms of opinion, the University is not Ringling arothers Circus and occasionally we have forgotten this in the past year. Dr . Hill raised a que stion about the responsibilities a Board has to the University and to other student organizations in its frequent role of "co-sponsor". A discussion followed regarding campus opinions and programs. Mr. Wenberg said that there is no fear of controversy as such in programming. Controversy in ideas is the life of a University. He said that the union does have two possible roles in pregramming. One£ is to house a program and the other is tc be actively involved in a program. This latter co-sponsorship role has two aspects -. -2-

(1) a cooperative planned partnership as part of a balanced calendar for the Union and (2) a "rescue-type" or "crisist' co-sponsorship role. It was pointed out that if a union board assumes the latter type role on campus, that may come to be its only role, because it both denies to itself a leadership planning role and because students will come to regard it as a sterile organization useful only in picking up what someone else initiates. At this point in the discussion members of the Student Center Beard of Governors left this meeting fo r the purpose of conducting the Board' s " annual meeting" . The 1964-65 meeting of the Student Center Board of Gove rnors was called to order by President, Rudy Hasbargen, at approximately 9:00 PM. Mro Hasbargen reviewed the election procedures and called for a motion to determine the method to be used.

Motion Y-1: Mr. Miller moved that nominations for officers be made from the floor followed by a written ballot to select the officer. Seconded. Motion carried© Nominations for President were opened.

Mr. Stricker was elected as the 1964-65 President of the Student Center Board of Governorse Nominations were opened for Vice-F resident. Paul Stegmeir and David Miller were nominated for vice-president.
