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.

The scope of the activities and services offered by the UAC is considered phenominal.

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.

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.
