Kropf Placing Emphasis
On Cultural Activities

"In the future, the new Univer-
sity Activities Center will increase
specialized programming to sup-
plement classroom procedure. The
emphasis will be to provide events
for the more diversified interests
,In campus," President James
Kropf, '66, declares.
"We feel we are sponsoring
enough large co-ordinate activities
like Homecoming and Musket to
fill the interest on campus, but
there is a definite need to supple-
ment the academic experience,
becoming increasingly n a r r o w
through trimester."

like UAC must also be able
transform itself, he says.

Closer Link
Kropf .s algo working for a
closer association between the
other organizations on campus
and the UAC. For instance, As-
sembly Association and Panhel-
lenic Association - both carry on
community service programs sim-t
ilar to the UAC projects.
Student organizations share an
interest in bringing political
speakers and cultural events to
the campus.
To Kropf, a more unified pro-
gram woven out of the presently
fractional events planned here
would be mutually beneficial.
Larger Focus
Pamela Erickson, '66N, the ad-
ministrative vice-president, agrees
that the program of the UAC in
the coming year should be direct-
ed toward the larger campus com-
munity to a greater Iextrnt than
its focus has been .in the past.
"The programmixg t his year,
will be aimed at the total Univer-
sity rather than simply. the"inder-
graduates. The UAC "has'sa re-
sponsibility to the whole campus,"
Miss Erickson emphasizes.
One.of the specific, goals of the
'officers is.. to 'epand the opera-
tion of the UAC to the summer
semester. Eventually they hope to
sponsor Michigras in this semes-
ter in addition to offering lawn
concerts, Hyde-Park speeches, and
a film. festival. They also hope to
have a dance on the tennis courts
inviting a popular song group.
"This year is the first year of
the UAC-it will be a year of ex-
perimentation, 'and the problems
that arise will have to be dealt
with in a pragmatic .;an-er. How-{
ever, we feel confident that it will
grow into the strongest activity
organization on c ranhpus," Kropf,
predicts.-

JAMES KROPF

Kropf would especially like to
see a greater number of trend-
setters in the fields of art and
literature; come before a Univer-
sity audience. He feels that in the
past the Union and League have
stuck too closely to traditional
activity.
As the needs of the Unaiversity
change, an all-campus :activity

The scope of the activities and
services offered by the UAC is
considered phenominal. Its four
executive' officers and 10 commit-
tee heads will manage such di-
verse projects as a poverty sym-

They outline their plans in these
terms:
Academics: Will direct the

confusing period of planning for
a merged organization,, begun
seven years ago. The first break-
through was the Robertson report,
named for a student-faculty-ad-
ministrator committee chaired by
Associate Dean James Robertson
of the literary college.

Although the Regents, the
boards of both organizations and
student administrators are all on
record as favoring the merged
unit in principle, a number of
specifics are still being worked
out.

To the executive vice-president
of the University Activities Cen-
ter, Michael Holmes, '66, "the in-
creased efficiency of the UAC
over the past operations of the
two separate organizations will
also greatly increase our ability
to provide services and activities
for the needs of the growing Uni-
versity community"
TCentralized planning will cut
much of the waste due to dupli-
cate programming, he says. The
old system of 18 committee heads
and seven officers has been re-
placed by a co-educational man-
agement of four officers and ten:
committee heads.
"The Michigan Union and the
Women's League were starting to
compete in too many fields; this
was the reason for the original co-
sponsoring of activities 1 i k e

Operating with two-budgets, twoI
