Reach out and pick up a directory The mailing of nearly 160,000 Pacific Northwest Bell directories is underway and is expected to be completed within the next two weeks, says Bruce Hall, manager of community affairs. This year's cover features a photo of Mt. Hood and Mirror Lake. For the first time, covers will include the month and year the directory was issued. A major change inside the directory will be a new format for the “customer guide1' section. It will include “community services numbers, a how to reach us" section for doing business with the telephone company and a “services and equipment” reference. The “services and equip ment” reference will include useful tips like how to discon nect and remove company telephone equipment.

Olum eyes role of vice president The departure of Curt Simic as vice president for university relations may bring a change in the respon sibilities of the job as well as a change in personnel. University Pres. Paul Olum, in a recent memorandum directed toward faculty and staff, has asked for sugges tions for re-organization of the role of vice president for university relations. Since each vice president is chief administrator for a major part of the University, “it seems worthwhile.. that we take a careful look at its structure and. consequently, at the general distribution of central administrative functions in the University," Olum says in the memo. Currently the position supervises the University Foun dation, alumni relations, news bureau, University publica tions, the museum of art, intercollegiate athletics, KWAX. community relations, governmental relations and alumni publications. One “novel idea" which has been suggested to Olum is to assign the management of research activities, economic and high-technology development and cor porate relations to that vice president. Other suggestions include moving intercollegiate athletics to some other area of responsibility, making the function of the vice president specifically geared toward public relations, and emphasizing legislative relations and public relations. Olum expects to decide "within the next week or so" what the exact duties of the position will entail. He says it could end up not changing at all. but he will consider all of the suggestions he receives before the end of January Simic resigned his position to accept the vice chancellorship for development at the University of California at Berkeley, effective April 1.

ASUO office experiences fourth personnel change The ASUO office of state and academic affairs announc ed another personnel change Monday Tracy Smith, administrative assistant to the ASUO office, has resigned, said Debi Lance, vice president in charge of the office. Smith cited a heavy course load for this term which would interfere with her office performance as the reason for resigning, Lance said. Smith's resignation is the fourth personnel change the office's paid staff has undergone this year. Her resignation follows several resignations received in December in other ASUO offices. The paid position may be filled by volunteers so the of fice can use the remaining sti pend money for transportation costs, Lance said. The money transfer would allow the ASUO more lobbying trips to Salem, she added. GET STUFFED!
