Ad Hoc Committee to Consider Spring Disturbances And To Attempt To Design Approches To Resolve Them Page 2

-2-

- Dialogue is fine, but need to consider obaining access to power roles (like City Council).
- Go to groups and talk: civic groups, service clubs like Rotary, police and sheriff's associations, Chamber of Commerce, Citizen's Committee for a Better Iowa City, etc.
- Use the media: WMT TV program Sundays at 10:30 p.m., KXIC Council Forums on Sunday afternoons, Dotte Ray Show, KICR in residence halls, Daily Iowan.

The following were then suggested as a brief summary of basic ideas and issues we need to work at:
- Education - dialogue - media - town meeting.
- Prepare for "unrest" events that might occur next spring - monitors (more than students)
- Voter registration for young vote.
- Get good candidates for City Council, Board of Supervisors, etc.
- Need new sense of awareness - break out of trap - perhaps use drama (Bunuel's "The Exterminating Angel" - use street theater)
- Seek to establish a city Social Concerns Committee.
