THE DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
College Alum
Groups OK'd
By Trustees
The University Board of Tius
itees, after a year of study, has
approved the organization of
alumni socities for each of the
.colleges of the Univeisity. The[
[societies are to be organized as
constituent groups of the Penn,
State Alumni Asociation '
Several of the colleges have
.'hown an interest in developing
smaller and more intimate alum
ni organizations. However, Har
ley I„ Swift, chairman of the com
mittee, lists membership in the
Alumni Association as a require
ment for membership in the con
stituent society. i
i The mam purposes for the gen
eral plan are to eliminate fiag
mentution and confusion among
graduates concerning dues re
quests and fund solicitations, to
keep alumni from being over
loaded and irritated by separate
and uncool dinated appeals, to
Icreate a balance in the needs of
[respective colleges and that of the
jUniversity, and to avoid dupli
cation of effort, officials say.
The committee said it felt that
by being part of the Overall pro
gram at the University, the con
stituent groups would have the
help of the parent body, under
standing of overall University
[problems and needs, and a closet
relationship with other consti
tuent groups and their programs
and operations.
On the other hand, it empha
sized that constituent groups
shold have their own boards of
diiectors, their own officers and
their own programs. They should
have representatives on the Al
umni council and the aid of the
Council of the Executive Secre
tary of the Penn State Alumni
Association, his facilities and his
1 staff.
