PRESIDENT'S
MESSAGE

It is natural that each new President, as he ad-
dresses himself to his year in office, will consider
new horizons he can set for himself and the College.
Yet staring him in the face is the charge, Just don't
mess up what others have done before you!
Our College is a great organization. It has reach-
ed a level of excellence that is hard to improve
upon. It finds its greatest strength in the ability,
involvement and attitude of its Fellows. As I see it,
the greatest responsibility of the President is to
make sure this strength is well used and directed.
To that end, I have decided that the following
areas deserve emphasis this year:
1. Committees - Our committees have become
increasingly active, and we want to structure and
support them in a way that enables them to be effi-
cient and productive. This means that each of them
should be of a size that is optimum for accomplish-
ing the job assigned (large enough to have a
breadth of experience, and yet small enough to
function efficiently); composed of members who
are able to make a commitment of the time re-
quired. I have made a complete review of the
committee structure, and the Board of Regents has
approved the changes I have suggested. Some
committees have been discharged, others have
been trimmed down, and changes in appointments
have been made throughout. The list of committees
and their members for this year are included in this
issue.
