Susan Uty Someone Special PFSB Liason With Alumni The Purdue Foundation Student Board is a multi-faceted organization. Much of what the organization does involves fund raising and supportive public relations activities There are four major program areas that PFSB is involved with: Parents Weekend, Phone-a-thon. President Council, and John Purdue Club. Through these activities, the PFSB creates a greater student awareness and participation. Parents Weekend is sponsored by the PFSB in conjunc- tion with the University Development Office. The Phone-a-thon is an annual event. Money was raised for the President's Unrestricted Fund so that he may better serve the students. The PFSB President s Council hosting area is a particularly rewarding facet of the Board's activities. They greet alums at President's Council pre-game luncheons, events at Westwood, the residence of President and Mrs. Beering, and larger President Council events. The highlight of the year was welcoming President Ronald Reagan to our campus in April. The John Purdue Club hosting area is responsible for hosting in the Buchanan Club area at all home football games, as well as hosting in the VIP room during the home basketball games. PFSB members have the opportunity to meet alumni and other distinguished members of the Purdue family. by Kathy Koon 350 Purdue Foundation Student Board

Patrick McCarthy With No Set Major Pre-Law Club Goes It Alone re-Law Club is an organization whose objectives are to provide information for prelaw students and the opportunity for pre law students to socialize with others This is important to the campus since Purdue lacks a prelaw major that students can declare. People interested in pre law do not have a chance to meet each other; many different majors are considered to be pre law For example, the polyscience majors and some engineer majors may be looking towards law school. Projects that bring these students together are their fund raising events at the Feast of the Hunter's Moon. The group has their own booth, a saukeraut with other meat delacacies. Another project is a trip to Chicago to the Law School Forum where 50 different law schools begin recruiting; they each display information about their law school and what they specialize in. Applications for each school are also available. The Law School Forum may help a pre law student make the right decision concerning which school to attend according to their interests. In addition to the Feast of the Hunter's Moon and the trip to Chicago, the Pre law Club holds regular meetings with guest speakers, attorneys, prosecutors, and justices, a law school application workshop. and they sponsor a coarse for the LSAT Some new projects that the Club is working on for the future are that they are trying to develop scholarships for students entering law school, and they are developing an advice booklet stating how to apply to law school With its members and officiers. Pre law Club is a new and growing club that seems to be developing for the needs of pre law students The president of the Club. Rosie Orne- las. is very optimistic in view of what Pre law Club has accomplished since its existance. Truly, it has made more information available to pre law students.and it's a good way to meet the students in prelaw. since there is no pre law major. In view of her experience with the club, she adds. I've met many people who are interested in the same career only different aspects. by Stephanie Brust

Make No Mistake SCHA Helps Oversee Co-ops FRONT ROW Robert Srader. John Miller. Shad Hull. Pat Glotzbach. SECOND ROW Angela Vance. Kris Tilly. Terri Lacey. Kathleen Nellis. 8ACK ROW Amta Chase. Lisa Whaley. Deb Kissel. Gene Hagedorn Unlike the common mistake most students make when they hear the phrase co op, the student cooperative housing association has nothing to do with job co ops. It provides a housing unit that falls somwhere between category of being a dormatory and fraternity or sorority in its lifestyle type At Purdue University, there are 14 co-ops: 8 men s and 6 women's co-ops. Since not all are owned by one person or corporation, it is hard to site a founding date. However, the majority. 11 houses, are owned by R.B Stewart who initially started the alternative of co operative housing, and these are 50 years old this year. And, in celebration of this a new co-op was named Stewart after this man. Two orgamzatins are involved in delegating matters concerning the co-ops FCHA and PSHC. FCHA is the more social organization, sponsoring activities, scholorships. and workships much like fraternity or sorority. While, PSHC is more business like in maintaing membership and maintainence of housing units. Both organizations conduct rush for their unity, much like sorority or fraternity rush Other events that the two groups have in common is the All Coop Flyaway and the All Co-op Conference. The All Co-op Converence held an enrichment program concerning matters as hazing, positive pledgeship. and food buying. The All Co-op Flyaway was held at the Union and was non-alcoholic because some of the co-ops are Christian. Don Molten concludes, I contribute and help out. but I don't have to really take charge of matters. The two groups make their decisions. by Stephanie Brust For the Future SSC Works for After College The Scienc Student Council exists to try and help science students help pick out graduate schools, freshman with their first round of tests, and raise funds for scholarships Their biggest money making projects of the year are a 5K and 10K Fitness Classic Run in the spring, and rusume book that is sold to companies With 35 members and four officers they do service proj- ects such as helping the university with high school days, grad school seminars, and a freshman survival program. The council also sends out a monthly paper called The Communique that keeps science students up-to-date on all of the goings on. According to the president. Elaine Hornberger. We as the council want to let science students to know that we exist to help them. by Kathy Koon FRONT ROW Elaine Hornberger. Dawn Groenke. Paul Gloeckner. Craig Claussen. Lynn McAfee. Tracy Winters.
