Photo by Kevin Gutting by LAURA ROSSMAN The essential purpose of the Business Council was to meet business students ' academic and pre-professional needs through the programs we offer, said president Diana Precht . In order to meet these needs, the Council sponsored several programs designed to allow students to keep up with developments in the business world. Among these pro- grams were a new Gift Campaign modeled after the Graduate Business Program, Business Major Workshops, and a Career Exposition. The Gift Campaign, sponsored by the Career Programs Committee, used a communication tree to reach graduates of the business school, who were asked to donate $200.00 over a four-year period. The proceeds of this campaign would be used to fund Endowed Presidential Scholarships. Business Week, which Precht said was the most publicized event that the council sponsored, took place Feb. 25- March 1 and offered students insights into the business scene. The panel discussions and guest lecturers covered such topics as High Technology Marketing, A Focus on Momentum and Where ' s the End of the Line: The Implications of Divesti-ture in the Telecommunications Industry. IBM, MBank and Frito-Lay were among the estimated 40-50 companies represented at the Career Exposition, held Oct. 16 in the Texas Union Ballroom. Precht said they (the com- panies) were pleased with the set-up and turn-out of the Expo. She said all of the students were interested in the Expo and the companies, for whom the Expo of- fered a chance to see students, meet them and make an impression on them. Through the Career Exposition, com- panies could meet prospective employees, generate publicity for themselves and increase their name recognition. Over 40 companies were represented at the Oct. 16 Career Exposition. Karen Sullivan discusses career opportunities with an IBM representative. Photo by Judy Walgren CBA Student Council 249

ARCHITECTURE PLANNING STUDENT COUNCIL Separate facets combine in anniversary year by LAURA ROSSMAN The Architecture and Planning Coun- cil celebrated the 75th anniversary of the School of Architecture at the University. The spring semester ' s coun- cil combined three previous councils in- to one: the Architecture Graduate and Undergraduate Student Councils and the Community and Regional Planning Council. Co-chairman Pablo Sanchez said the new eight-member council really incorporated the three schools. The anniversary year was marked by three major events: a fall Goals Con- ference, a two-day symposium in the spring and Beaux-Arts Ball. The Goals Conference, held Oct. 26- 28, was sponsored by the council to ex- amine and report on the School of Ar- chitecture. The anniversary commis- sion, chaired by Boone Powell of San Antonio, compiled a report critiqueing the current status of the school and pro- grams as well as offering suggestions for improvement over the next 25 years. The final report was formally presented by Hal Box, dean of the School of Ar- chitecture, to Dr. Peter Flawn, presi- dent of the University, in April. Ah, Mediterranean! Twentieth Cen- tury Classicism in America, was a two- day symposium held April 11-12 in Hogg Auditorium. The symposium on mediterranean architecture offered three sessions over the two-day span en- titled Classicism and Free Classicism, Timeliness and Timelessness and Romance and Vision, and featured panel discussions following each of the sessions. Among the panel members was Dr. Charles Moore, holder of the first endowed faculty position created by the School of Architecture, the O ' Neil Ford Centennial Chair. The two-day sym- posium was followed on April 13 by the Beaux-Arts Ball. The ball, the result of the work of five committees, featured the music of seven bands. Sanchez said FIRST ROW: Cynthia Ann R.

Differentiating between the architec- ture and planning professions, Sanchez said, we ' re (the architects) all visual and they ' re (the planners) all numbers and facts. He was pleased that the new council would unify the school, and looked in the future towards an increase in student involvement in the happen- ings of the school, both curricular and extra-curricular. At the symposium Ah Mediterranean! Twentieth -Century Classicism in America on April 11-12, Susan Hoove talks over the main points of the program with Dean Hal Box. - Photo by Debbe Sharpe

Gouldon, author of The Superlawyers and The Death Merchants. The Communication Bowl, a trivia game, was held between faculty and students. T-shirts were sold throughout the week.
