There are more than 18,000 living alumni of the University. Their alumni memberships are in the ten divisionals associations-Arts and Sciences, and the Schools of Business Admin- istration, Dentistry, Education, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Social Work. An eleventh association, the University Alumnae, includes women graduates of any division. A twelfth association includes graduates with the degree of Analytical Chemist, a degree formerly conferred by the University. There are also twenty-five district alumni clubs, organized in geographical areas outside Buffalo, whose membership embraces alumni of any division resident therein. Central alumni activity at the University began with the founding of the Federated Alumni Associations in 1915. Nine years later, this body became the General Alumni Association with its board of trustees including representatives of the divisional alumni associations. In 1933, the Alumni Council was formed as an added unit made up of alumni members of the University Council. The Alumni Council and the General Alumni Association were merged in 1940 into the General Alumni Board. As now constituted, this single central body administrates alumni affairs and is composed of representatives from the divisional alumni associations, the district alumni clubs, and the alumni members of the University Council. The Alumni Loyalty Fund, established by the alumni in 1943, has directly or indirectly brought alumni gifts to the University which at this date total more than one million dollars. The Alumni Office, established in 1933, operates under the supervision of the General Alumni Board. lts functions are intended to unify alumni activity and to represent the University to the alumni and the alumni interests to the University. Talman W. Van Arsdale, Jr., BA '38, MA '40, is executive director of the Board and head of the Alumni Office. General Alumni Board 1ST ROW: Harold H. Johnson, BS fBus.l, '43, Emily H.

Norton Union Stott Anyone who has ever set toot inside Norton Union could and should take a moment to evaluate the Tremendous amount of work which makes possible the smoothly organized administration of the center of U. B. social lite-our Union. Each of us should then realize that there must be one person able to coordinate, lead, promote and direct this work. ln U. B.'s Norton Union, Miss Dorothy Haas is this person. Her personal interest and understanding of people coupled with her administrative and organizational skill make Dottie a most popular and respected person. The headaches that accompany the position of Treasurer of the Union fall to the lot of Mrs. Carolyn Kerr who ably assists Miss Haas in this diFticult and responsible position. Miss Lorraine Kraft occupies the desk of Secretary to Miss Haas and as such comes into much contact with the gang . Hers is the voice which we hear so often over the P.A. and hers is the kind heart which takes so many phone calls for us. The task of planning and coordinating social events in and for the stu- dent union is an essential one. Miss Lenore O'Loughlin, program coordi- nator of Norton Union, does this, and most efficiently so. ln tact, she makes it a point to participate in most of these events, besides organizing them. lt is indeed a privilege to know Miss Haas and her stalt, and it becomes an additional privilege when one realizes the great job which they are performing so quietly and so pleasantly.
