Responsible for seheduling exhi- bits in the University Center, recep- tions for artists, poetry readings, music listening hours, student art sales and photography competitions, the UP Fine Arts Committee worked in cooperation with the departments on campus. Jeanne Dixon, George Gallup, pollster, and Jessie Hill Ford, aut- hor, were among the national and regional speakers brought to the MSU campus by the UP Speakers Committee. Activities during Memphis State ' s Homecoming week included a fashion show, a dance, two concerts, elections of the Homecoming Court and a dinner. All of these events were coordinated by the UP Homecoming Committee. The Ethnic Affairs Committee, one of the UP ' s newer groups, orga- nized such activities as the Inter- national Christmas Party. In an effort to introduce MSU students to other cultures besides their own, information and programs were provided by the committee. The UP Concert Committee worked to bring talented musicians to the Memphis area. Among the artists they contracted with were Billy Joel and Waylon Jennings.
