'rv txfxx Wi? QU? E iiii n mil as WLT tml Q -Q-Ll S MEMORIAL STUDENT UNION tudent nion Serves As Center of tudent Activities The 1966-67 school year was a significant one for the Memorial Student Union as plans for an addition, costing in excess of a million and a half dollars, were approved by the Board of Regents. This new area will be devoted to providing more stu- dent office space, conference and meeting rooms as well as recreational facilities. These will serve to meet the need for space that has become a con- tinuing problem on the Teachers College campus. The Union, under the direction of Richard Stoner, serves as both a center of social activity on campus and as cultural and artistic showcase. The Hornets Nest is one of the most popular places on campus as thousands of students pass through daily. Tile Black and Gold Room has been the exhi- bition area for many student and faculty art shows as well as many other exhibitions. The Music Lis- tening Room offers a wide selection of music to suit any taste whether as background for between class studying or mere relaxation. The Television Lounge affords students the opportunity to view their favorite day and nighttime shows in color. These, along with many other meeting and conference areas, provide the campus organizations with ample space for activities. Members of the Student Union personnel staff who manage the various union services include assistant directors Charles Green and Gene Black- welder, program director, James Long, director of food services, Helen Bishop, bookstore manager, Shirley Ebbertsg maintenance supervisor, Floyd Garley and receptionist, Grace Atkinson.

Teachers College Press Prints Campus Publications The Teachers College Press, under the direction of Carl Hoffmans, is a service organization for the Teachers College and does printing for the depart- ments and administrative offices. Material printed by the plant includes catalogues, information pam- phlets, institutional brochures and tests for the Bureau of Educational Tests and Measurements. The plant, which operates on a self-supporting basis, employs a full-time staff of eight men. In addi- tion to Hoffmans, the staff includes Charles Brooks, Gene Danitschek, Irving LaClear, Bill Rinehart, Jerry Shaffer, Marland Smith and Vernon Young. The press has had a long history on the Teachers College campus, beginning in 1908 when it was sta- tioned in the old main building which is now the site of the Sunken Garden. For over 30 years it fulfilled the college's printing needs and contracted enough work to help maintain general institutional expansion. In 1954- new equipment purchases marked the begin- ning of a Mcomplete plant well equipped for offset printing. Modernization of equipment has been significant in the last 12 years, and today the plant turns out a large volume of printing. In addition, it is second only to the state printing plant in the contracting of photo supply buying. LESLIE R.

Visual Aids Mark a Trend In Education Development In pointing up the importance of audio-visual aids in modern teaching methods, Leslie R. Marks, head of the Instructional Media Center and instructor of audio-visual materials, stated, There is a trend in higher education toward an extensive development and use of new instructional materials and servicesv. Marks continued, 4'This trend is encouraged by the availability of effective and appropriate materials, machines and classrooms for improved teaching . The Instructional Media Center provides many supplementary resources for faculty classroom use, school sponsored organizations and student projects as well as for workshops and institutes. Films, film- strips, records, tapes, film projectors and tape re- corders are a few of the materials and equipment available at the Center. Film and filmstrip catalogues from other colleges and organizations list material which may be rented or purchased. Instructional materials such as News Focus which highlights weekly news in transparencies are also available to students.
