Regional NFCL Seen
Approaching Reality
By Joe Gardner
Emerald Auiilant New* Editor
A regional organization of
Northwest colleges came closer to
reality with the trip to Tacoma
made last weekend by Sophomore
Class President Bob Summers.
Summers spoke Saturday to a
meeting of the Evergreen Confer
ence of Student Associations held
at Pacific Lutheran college on the
feasibility of a plan to consolidate
their organization with the Oregon
Federation of Collegiate Leaders.
He heads a special committee of
the ASUO senate which is study
ing a proposed Northwest Federa
tion of Collegiate Leaders.
The new organization would in
clude schools in Oregon, Idaho,
Washington and Montana. Sum
mers told the Emerald Tuesday
that such a group would consoli
date schools with similar problems,
improve public relations among the
schools and give more power and
efectiveness to Northwest col
leges.
At present there are two groups
in the Northwest which attempt to
accomplish these ends. Oregon
withdrew from one, the Pacific
Student Presidents association,
last month because the organiza
tion was thought to be inadequate.
The University has never been a
member of the other, the National
Students association, which is a
nation-wide group.
Major criticism of these two
groups is their size and expense.
At present nearly 130 schools are
included in PSPA. The problems
of these groups, Summers said, are
too national in scope to be of value
to thq Northwest. NFCL would
haxe approximately 40 member
schools, he declared.
Other student groups in the
Northwest are of a more local na
ture. ESCA, addressed by Sum
mers last week, is comprised of
eight smaller Washington schools
including the University of Brit
ish Columbia. Washington State
college and the University of
Washington are not represented.
OFCL is an exclusive Oregon
group of which the University has
been a member for ten years.
The biggest problem now facing
the proposed reorganization is, ac
cording to Summers, a reluctance
on the part of these two organiza
tions to lose their individual
identity. Nevertheless, ECSA.,
passed a resolution favoring the
new group and will send repre
sentatives to an OFCL conference
to be held in the fall at Reed col
leeg. Main item on the agenda will
be the drafting of an NFCL con
stitution.
The move for regional organiza
tion was started by Ken Strand,
student leader at WSC, who spoke
last fall to the Oregon senate. At
a leadership confeernce held two
weeks ago at Marylhurst college
under the sponsorship of NSA,
several Oregon schools expressed
interest in the plan to ASUO pres
ident Pat Dignan. Dignan has dele
gated Summers, who was recently
re-elected to the senate, to con
duct further studies.
Out of state interest has been
indicated by the University of
Montana. Idaho schools, although
members of NSA, are seriously
considering membership in the
new organization.
"Northwest colleges are definite
ly looking to Oregon for leader
ship in the formation of NFCL,”
stated Summers. "I look for the
first NFCL conference to be held
a year from this spring, possibly
at Oregon,” he concluded.
FAHLMAN SATISFIED
Report Made on SU's Year
The report of Clyde Fahlman, re
tiring chairman of the Student
Union board for the 1952-53 school
year, stated that the SU’s year
has been a highly active and suc
cessful one. The report pointed out
several weaknesses both at the
program level, but the overall pic
ture was a good one.
The report was written under
the three-fold heading of ac
complishments at the board level,
and recommendations.
Over 165 single events weer con
ducted during the year including
movies, dances, art exhibits,
Brownsing Room coffee hours,
coffee hour forums, and music
programs.
The breakdown follows: dances,
14; art exhibits, 18; Friday night
coffee hours, 10; coffee hour for
ums, 21; football movies, four;
Sunday movies, 22; educational
films, 83 reels, and music, 26
events, including the Sunday con
cert hours and campus community
sings.
The year’s work at the board
level was centered around stream

in honor of Miss Blickenstaff and
her sister, Rosalie. Rosalie, a

cital Tuesday.
lining the administrative set-up
and program, and the sponsoring
of several special events, the re
port says.
The personnel committee, se
lected skeleton committee mem
bers, may be merged with the pub
! lie relations committee for 1953- ;
J 54 because of the overlapping
j duties.
The public relations committee
published 15 “chatter sheets” dur
ing the past school year, but will
have a greatly enlarged program
in the future, including the con- :
ducting of polls and personnel
hours. Approximately 20 hospital
ity hours were conducted by the
public relations committee during
the year.
Other board accomplishments
were the sponsorship of the Don
Cossack concert, the instigation
and organization of career day, the
sending of delegates to the SU
national and regional conferences,
and the arranging of the SU
awards banquet.
Fahlman made 19 recommenda
tions to the 1953-54 board. He sug
gested: preparation for a more ex
tensive SU open house during
orientation week; attendance of
directorate members at board
meetings; moving of the board
membership selection up to winter
term; continued encouragement of
faculty membership on commit
ittees; endeavoring to fill the va
cacncies on the board as soon as
possible; and delegation of the
bowling and billiards tournament
to the administration.
New Alum Scholarship
Plan Called Successful
Less than a year ago the alumni
association conceived an idea to
help the university by starting a
scholarship fund. The idea has
taken hold and this year 13 in
coming students have benefited to
the tune of $4100.
The purpose of plan is to seek
gifts from alumni mainly to set up
scholarships for new students. Di
vided into three general categories
to raise money, the first type is a
general scholarship fund derived
from alumni in response to mail
appeal.
The next plan is the community
scholarship program calling for
each community in the state to
sponsor its own program.
Last year the university alumni
office ran a test campaign in Bend,
a typical community, to 3ee what
could be raised and learned from
such an undertaking. Over $1,400
was raised and as a result this
year five $200 scholarships were
awarded to graduates of Bend
high school.
Under this program the indi
vidual community recommends
the candidates and makes the final
choice based on the candidate’9
background and knowledge.
Under the individual alumni
scholarship plan, a private person
or firm desirous of sponsoring a
scholarship, remits the money an
nually. Several of these have been
given and the alumni association
hopes more will be added.
The scholarships, in all cases,
are awarded by the scholarship and
financial aid committee of the
university except in the case of the
community plan.
All scholarship recipients are
given a certificate which desig
nates them as “alumni scholars.’’
These awards are given at the
time of student commencement
whenever possible.
Les Anderson, alumni director,
is quite pleased with the results of
the campaign this year. “It is a
step in the right direction.” An
derson felt the committee had
learned! much from its first at
tempts. A goal of $10,000 is set
for next year. In the case of the
individual plan, the alumnus spon
soring a student sees his protegee
enroll in his alma mater, graduate,
and return to the community.
