May 11, 1970 STUDENT ACTIVITIES BULLETIN Page 3 PLEASE HELP THE STUDENT ACTIVITIES BULLETIN! The Student Activities BULLETIN has made an effort to serve as a means of communication among student organizations, University offices, and students. However, after nine months of experience with the BULLETIN it seems that these groups either have no need for communication or they communicate in other ways. Is this true? Do you want or need to communicate with other organizations? What other means of communication do you use? As you are probably aware, the BULLETIN has been used mostly as a means of publicity for events sponsored by a few organizations. The BULLETIN is mailed to [[underline]]all[[end underline]] student organizations and residence units. Do you or would you profit by using the BULLETIN for inexpensive publicity? Is this service needed by organizations? Are there better ways to provide this service? It might be that the BULLETIN is a useful tool, but the contents should be changed. If so, what type of information does your organization need? What needs to be included or eliminated? Your help in answering these questions would be greatly appreciated. The results will provide a guideline for action on discontinuing, retaining, or reforming the BULLETIN in the future. To respond please call and give us your opinions. It's easy, but very helpful.
