Patricia Kutchka was elected vice-president, Mary Lynn Murphy, secretary, Veronica Lepold, treasurer, and Mary Jo Tasch, parliamentarian. A drive for membership was organized in the fall, and a large maiority of the future professional teachers signed up as members. Representatives of the organization attend and participate in local and state meet- ings of the Association. The Association, which gives young people a campus taste of what senior professional organization, the NEA, is and does, invites members to its ranks, and offers professional service to all future teachers. Miss Mary M. F. Whalen is sponsor of the campus organization. She attempts to unite the efforts of this group with the International Relations Club, and thus make a more integrated plan of the two organizations. As coordinator of student teaching, she is able to show student teachers the benefits of being initiated into a professional organization on the campus level, so as to receive an orientation to future professional responsibilities. The l.W.C. chapter nom- inates a candidate for the title of Future Teacher of America, who enters the state competition, and if successful, would go on to the national competition.
