IDEAL ANNUAL MEETING TIME SOUGHT

Council, at the Dec. 4, 1971 meeting directed the Executive Committee

to restudy the time of the Annual Meeting. Almost any time of year produces

some conflict and the "sometime in April which does not fall on Easter weekend"

tradition was developed through many years of experimentation.

The specific date is established by the host institution and is governed

somewhat by scheduled events on that particular campus. The following Annual

Meetings have already been scheduled:

1972 Marietta College April 20-22 1973 John Carroll University April 26-28 1974 College of Wooster April 25-27 1975 Denison University April 24-26 1976 Miami University April

Some members may not be familiar with the many other events sponsored

annually by the Ohio Academy. For 1972 these include:
