NSA—What It Is;
How It Functions
What is the National Student Association? Why is the
University a member? How does NSA function?
These questions and others like them have been circu
lating about campus and will be brought up tomorrow night
when All-University Cabinet discusses NSA.
Here's some background ma
terial on the organization which
is now the subject of much con
troversial discussion•
Organized in 1946
The United States National
Student Association was .organ
ized by a constitutional conven
tion held in 1946. Its membership
is limited to student bodies of a
democratic nature,
Members at present are 315 col
leges and universities, represent
ing about 750,000 students.
; NSA's efforts have, been di-,
reeled toward improving student
leadership, creating a greater stu
dent awareness of the issues and
problems of America:a education,
assisting student organizations
(particularly student government),
i and providir4 a• voicefor Ameri-
I can students in national and in
ternaticaral affairs as they affect
them in their role as students.
Congress Decides Policies
Ali policies and programs of the
orgarii -tion - are established by
the annual National Student Con
gress, to which the University
sent delegates last summer.'
NSA is financed through mem
bership dues (which amount to
$215 a year for the -University),
special grants from foundations,
the sale of publications and gifts
from individuals and corporation.
A major' activity of the asso
ciation is the Student Govern
ment Information Service, which
serves member schools. The pro
gram consists of files containing
materials gathered, from colleges
and universities. On the request
of member schools, information is
sent to them regarding programs
in existence at other schools.
NSA National Programs
NSA also carries out special na
tional programs. These include a
student discount service. an inter
national student relations semi
nar, Student Activities Research'
Study, Academic Freedom Week,
National Brotherhood Week,'
United -- Nations Day and Book.
Day.
Another function is to stimulate
student thought on national issues
and international affairs by re-'
laying information to students.
- Four commissions within NSA
carry on individual programs.
These committees are on student
government, international affairs,
educational affairs and student
affairs. -
