Alumnae Issue

Volume XXXI No. 4 December, 1945 To the Alumnae

arch 9, 1946, will be observed

M as the sixty-second anniversary

of the founding of State Teachers Col-

lege. Owing to travel restrictions, we

were unable to have a full-fledged cel-

ebration in 1945. With the coming of

peace, however, I am hoping that a

number of the alumnae will be with

those of us us. Founders Day is not an anniversary to be observed only by co-opera- who live in Farmville. To be successful the day must be observed tively. Those in Farmville, certainly, will observe the day, but Farmville alumnae everywhere also have a part in the day, and I am looking forward to seeing a large number of you here on March 9.

Your Alma Mater has survived another—and I hope the last—war. The

it has College is prepared to render even a greater service to Virginia than rendered in the past. With the co-operative effort of all of us—Administra- tion, Faculty, Friends, and Alumnae—we shall go forward to greater and greater service.

Your friend,

J. L. Jarman Richmond, Virginia, September 19th, 1945.

Dear Alumnae:

It is a privilege to send greetings again to all of you who received your training at Farm- ville State Teachers College.

Today, we proudly share the same common interest in the rapid development of a great Teachers College in Virginia.

In this memorable year, with the restoration of peace, our thoughts and efforts can be turned once again to usual pursuits and accomplishments, which make a richer, fuller life. We shall have time for our friends; we shall be able to see them more frequently. As members of the Alumnae Association, we can meet more often, and enlarge the scope of work for the benefit of our college. You have been a great support, but more than ever Farmville will need a strong Alumnae Association, ready to meet new demands of a post- war era.

Perhaps you have heard something of our plans for a greater General Alumnae Fund which we are presenting to you for consideration in this issue of the Bulletin.

The Executive Board decided, after studying the trends in other Colleges and Uni- versities of substantial large-scale fund-raising campaigns, that it is an appropriate time for Farmville Alumnae to have a more definite goal and a plan whereby we may reach that goal. This is a business-like way of meeting needs of our College, which cannot be supplied by anyone else but the Alumnae.

This year, in addition to taking care of the general running expenses of the Associa- tion, we are starting a special fund for an organ. It will be a memorial to our beloved Dr. Jarman. He has been approached, and the idea seems pleasing to him. Very soon a new auditorium will be built. In it we hope to have the organ, a gift from all Alumnae.

It will be a pleasant, happy experience to meet many of you in Farmville on Founders

Day. I am confident that in the coming year you will inspire your College with the same loyal spirit you have always shown.

Sincerely your,

Louise Ford Waller, President, Alumnae Association.

The Alumnae Fund

student body and our OUR alumnae aie accustomed to raising money for gifts to the college on Founders Day in March each year. Questions are repeatedly asked about the use of this Founders Day Fund, as we have called it in the past, so we wish to recall to your mind some of the investments you have made in your Alma Mater.

First of all, the Student Building was erected largely through your effort and coop- eration. The state appropriated $59,000 and you and other friends gave $110,000. All sorority and honor society rooms were paid for and furnished by students in residence and by the alumnae and friends of the college. You have been investing in scholarship funds as loans and as gifts, and one of our alumnae has made it possible for a number of girls to remain in college until graduation, when they could not have done it without her help. Certain ones of our alumnae have made personal gifts to the college in memory of some one who lived and worked with us in the past. You have put into the Library many portraits of men and women who have helped in the building of our Alma Mater, and you have added to the shelves in the Library many books in memory of one who gave books a new meaning for you. It is not possible to cover the scope of your giving, but your gifts have proved your loyalty to Farmville and your continued interest in edu- cation.

At a meeting of the Executive Board last May a committee was appointed to study methods of financing Alumnae associations of other colleges, and ways of raising money for special objectives. That committee is ready to make the following recommendations for your consideration

1. Make all gifts payable to The Alumnae Fund.

2. Let one dollar and a half be deducted from each gift for current expenses.

3. Designate the objective for which you wish the remainder of your gift spent.

We have a wonderfully well organized alumnae, with a central office here that we mention with pride. Dr. Jarman managed to get two thirds of our part-time secretary's salary on the state pay-roll, but it takes money to run that office, as you will see from Mrs.

Coyner's report. If your gifts to the college can be only a dollar and a half, we feel it should be used for keeping our office going.

The committee wishes to suggest a long-range objective, which we believe we can at- tain, since the Student Building was so well supported and so admirably sustained. Some day we shall have a bigger and a better auditorium, and when that time comes we should have a pipe organ for it. Dr. Jarman has wanted to start an organ fund for years, but each year .there are more immediate demands on the Founders Day Fund, and we think

December, 1945 3 the fund should be launched on our next Founders Day. Because of Dr. Jarman's love

for music and the service he has rendered here through music we feel confident this ob- jective will make a popular appeal. Several Farmville friends have already offered to buy bonds for that fund—provided it be known as the Jarman Organ Fund.

Please read Mrs. Coyner's report carefully, and use your ballot to advise us about

the running expenses and the long-range objective proposals. These matters, will be voted on at the March meeting on Founders Day. Committee: Louise Ford Waller Mary Clay Hiner Mary E. Peck Ruth H. Coyner

Some Facts About the Cost of Running an Alumnae Association

Do you realize that it costs us about

(1) $ 300.00 for mailing a letter to our Alumnae?

(2) 110.00 for record cards, stationery and postage a year?

(3) 25.00 for extra clerical work a year?

(4) 20.00 for membership in American Alumni Council?

(5) 15.00 for supplies and servicing typewriters and the addressograph?

(6) 360.00 for our part of the Alumnae Secretary's salary?

(7) 30.00 for traveling expenses of the Executive Board?

Note: Last year we could not have met these expenses except for a balance from the year 1943, and the profits for three years from the sale of our College China.

Do you realize that the College pays for

(1) Two thirds of the Alumnae Secretary's salary?

(2) One student for approximately two hours of office work a day?

(3) Printing and mailing the Alumnae Bulletin to 7000 Alumnae?

(4) Expenses of the Alumnae car?

Note: We may have to take over some of the above expense at any time!

FOUNDERS DAY 1945 will go down in the history of our College as a war casualty for our Alumnae. This had been our annual homecoming day since the beginning of

the student building, but when news came that our government had ruled out all meet- ings which would cause as many as fifty people to travel, the invitations to our Alumnae

had to be cancelled. As disappointing as this was, all true Farmville daughters realized

that winning the war was our first duty and they were willing to make this sacrifice.

The Farmville Alumnae Chapter helped greatly by attending all the functions in larg-

er numbers than usual. At ten o'clock in the morning they gave a coffee in honor of our

new Dean of Women, Dr. Martha Smith. The usual celebration was held in the audito-

rium an hour later. At this time the three portraits which Alumnae and friends gave this year were presented by the following: Dr. F. A. Millidge by M. Boyd Coyner; Miss Lula O. Andrews by Miss Mary Clay

Hiner; Miss Minnie V. Rice by Miss Carrie B. Taliaferro.

The Alumnae Secretary read reports of the Chapters for the past year. Especially did

everyone miss the Class Reunions this year. Kate Burton Glenn of the Class of 1895 was

present. Clare Woodruff Bugg represented the Class of 1905 and gave some interesting

news items about the absent members. Letters from the other Class presidents were read from the following: Evelyn Noell Wood, 1915; Victoria Vaden Worden, 1920; Kitty Mor- gan Hogg, 1925; Frankie McDaniel Cargill, 1935.

Dr. Fannie Wyche Dunn, professor emeritus at Columbia University and a former

member of the Department of Education at S.T.C., gave a forceful and inspiring talk on "Why Teach Today".

Concluding the day, the Dramatic Club, under the excellent direction of Miss Leola Wheeler, presented Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream."
