The newer colleges University Women, Greetings: HE program of our Association is so carefully staff and its personnel so carefully worked out for your service, that no new resolutions on the part of the organization, as organization, seem necessary. The business of the Association is centered in permanent offices at Washington. The Departments of Executive Work, of Education, and of Finance are in admirable working order. The alliance existing between the National Organization and the Branches, as well as between the National Organization and the International Federation, grows closer and more definite with each passing year. What is needed in our Association is participation by the membership in its opportunities and in its responsibilities. The membership as a whole is not using to its fullest capacity the educational service and universities of our country are not being encouraged with definiteness and intelligence to higher in the National Headquarters and Club in Washington has not been helped to its solution by our membership as a whole. The opportunities for service through the American Association of University Women are immeasurable. The members must, however, be able to solve their own problems before they solve the problems of the larger community. In 1924, may we not, having thought upon these things, become an organization in which every member assumes intelligently her particular responsibility and makes real in the life of her community the purpose of the National AsYours very earnestly, sociation. AURELIA HENRY REINHARDT. AN AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN COMMITTEE ON EVERY CAMPUS AN N active committee is needed on every campus in the country where there are women students, for coöperation with the American Assoiation of University Women. I have been asked to report on a committee a committee formed some time ago at Mills College with a treble purpose: First, to aid the busy women members of the Mills College faculty to keep in touch with the activities of the Association, its local branch, its national work, and its international program and plans. Second, to encourage membership in the San Francisco Branch among newcomers to the teaching group or to the Graduate School. Third, to make one more link of educational interest in the Alumnae Association itself. The committee has seven members: the chairman, Dr. Vernette Gibbons, Membership Worker for the San Francisco Bay Branch; Miss Jeanette Gay, Membership Worker for the Mills Alumnae As sociation; Miss Rosalind Cassidy, Liason officer for the California State Division of the A. A. U. W; Miss Emma K. Whiton, Liason Officer for the National Association; Miss Amy Cryan, Laison Officer for the International Federation; Miss Rosalind Keep, Secretary of the Committee. The usefulness of such an organization has been proved in several ways. Practically every woman member of the teaching group at Mills College is a member of the A. A. U. W. The membership in the Mills Alumnae Association is growing slowly but steadily. In regard to this year's problem of Headquarters and Club House Purchase, the Mills Committee has done valiant service. It has responded loyally to the estimated quota of each member's responsibility and has organized to give a benefit on the evening of Saturday, February 16, to complete the Mills' pledge of $1000 to the Headquarters and Club House Fund. Does this not seem a practical plan for drawing |
