University Daily Kansan Monday, April 19, 1965 KU Delegates to Attend NACURH Conference By Nancy Scott The theme for the conference is "Where from Here." "This is particularly appropriate," Tschecheltin said, "in light of national growth and the fact that the membership has doubled." Eight students will represent KU at the annual National Association of College and University Residence Halls (NACURH) convention Thursday through Saturday at Washington State University at Pullman, Wash. Washington State University also is near the University of Idaho. This, Tschechtelin feels, is particularly advantageous because students at the conference will have a chance to view the residence halls of both schools. TSCHECHTELIN WAS elected president at a national conference in Denver, Colo., April 25, 1964. Miss Olson was elected secretary-treasurer at the conference. James Tschechtelin, Shawnee Mission senior, president of NACURH, and Joan Olson, Omaha, Neb., junior, secretary-treasurer of the association, are both convention delegates from KU. Presently there are 55 schools with membership in NACURH. All the schools in the Big Eight belong except the University of Oklahoma. NACURH was founded in 1961 That year the Association of College and University Residence Halls (ACURH) and the Intermountain Residence Halls Association merged to form the national organization. Tschechtelin served as its first vice-president in 1961. "In the past year," Tschechtelin said, "we have gone national figuratively as well as literally." HE EXPLAINED that NACURH has developed into a mutually beneficial program for all students and schools concerned. He said perhaps one of the greater benefits of an association like NACURH is "to get students together for conferences. For those three or four days, we (the delegates) eat, sleep and live residence halls." Tschechtelin plans to present a program for changes in NACURH at the convention. He said he will strongly advocate a change in the policy in the selection of the vice-president. Tschechtelin hopes to have the conference chairman (the vice-president) appointed by the executive officers of NACURH and the national president. There also are other possible changes in NACURH. "NACURH IS ALSO investigating the possibility of grant or grants from some foundations to have national programs," Tschetchelin said. He hopes to see a leadership seminar and a share-pay plan formed. The leadership seminar would invite noted authorities in sociology, group dynamics and related fields to speak to students. The seminars would also bring films on leadership to the campuses. KU'S OTHER DELEGATES to the convention in Washington are Ron Rardin, Leawood senior and delegation chairman; Elaine Rinkel, Scott City junior and chairman of KU's Spring Fling; Brent Porter, Hallway, Mo., senior and cabinet member of NACURH; John Hill, Waverly sophomore; Bettie Joyce Meador, Kansas City junior, and Marsha Babicki, Leavenworth junior. This month is the first annual month. The observance is an outgrowth of KU's Spring Fling, Tschechetelin explained. Spring Fling originated last spring on the KU campus. Since then, it has developed into a national program. The purpose of the month, Tschechetelin said, is co-ordination of various activities of campuses and communication improvement among member schools. The share-pay plan would be for building libraries in residence halls. Mary Francis Watson, assistant dean of women, will also attend the conference.
