Propose Plans For Project Senior Board of 1962, believ- ing that their class owes some- thing to the University for four years of education, will act to make students aware of this re- sponsibility, Paul Lurie, vice-pres- ident of the Senior Board, said recently. The Board has laid the foun- dation for a future Board which will function effectively to assist the senior class in contributing to the University, Lurie noted. The Board, traditionally com- posed of the four officers of the eight undergraduate schools, has restructured itself to be more tightly organized and to facilitate delegation of responsibility. Eight Schools Next year's Board will be com- posed of 16 people, who will be the presidents and vice-presidents of the eight schools. The tradi- tional 32 man Board proved inef- ficient and unneeded, Lurie com- mented. The Board handles details of graduation such as selecting a commencement speaker and host- ing at graduation. It functions as the official class representative to the Alumni As- sociation. The most important function of the Board is the col- lection of senior class dues, which have so far amounted to $2,000, and the selection of the class gift, William Blanton, '62BAd, presi- dent of the Board, said. have been statues, plaques and the like, Lurie commented. "By giving an academic gift to the University, the Board feels it can help draw the attention of the students to the financial needs of the University," Lurie said. Working Organization "This year we have organized the Board and outlined its func- tions. We hope the future officers will take the responsibility of making it a working organization. Next year the Board should hold a Senior Night, for fund-raising, and should have a more efficient collection of dues," Lurie said. Present Senior Board officers are Blanton president; Lurie, vice- president; Harry Dickinson, BAd, treasurer; Gloria Shaheen, Ed., corresponding secretary; J e a n Merkle N., recording secretary.

The exhibit will be at the Union for about a week, during which time some of the pieces now on display will be replaced with other original student art.

March 20 Culture, in Orbit" m on the Fine Arts To Serve City Plans are being formulated for a proposed Ann Arbor community foundation which would benefit health, welfare, cultural, civic and other areas of interest. The idea originated with a study committee of the Ann Arbor United Fund. According to organizing com- mittee head, Jack D. Hogan, money could be willed or given to the foundation to be used for parks, recreation, the community center, or in any way which would serve the community. Although the University would not be directly involved in such a project, it could benefit possibly. from scholarshipeor research gifts. Members of the organizing com- mittee, still being formed, include qualified experienced representa- tives of Ann Arbor's financial in- stitutions, attorneys, representa- tives of some family foundations and representatives from the com- munity at large. Many other cities, including De- troit, Cleveland and Kalamazoo, have established successful com- munity foundations and trusts," Hogan said. To Greet McNamara Secretary of Defense Robert Mc- Namara, this year's commence- ment speaker, will be greeted by the president and vice-president of the Board, Blanton noted. "The, potential of the senior class contributions to the Uni- versity is great," Lurie said. This year's gift-a publishing fund for the Institute of Science and Tech- nology--is the first academic con- tribution of a senior class in the past five years.
