Yes Yes Yes No 7 Location – Pigeon Forge, Tennessee Although Maryville College is hosting the SAACURH No-Frills Conference, their campus is too small to hold such a large group of people during the school year, therefore Maryville College searched to find a location that would offer the necessary facilities for the conference while showing you the peaceful side of the Great Smoky Mountains (which the Maryville College campus is surrounded by). The Conference Facility The Smoky Shadow’s Motel is where the delegates will be staying. Each room is equipped with two king size beds and is capable for dialup internet connect. Some rooms have Jacuzzis in them. There is also a pool area which is connected to one of the rooms at the motel which will serve as the hospitality room. Across the parking lot from the motel can be found the Smoky Shadow’s Conference Center. This is where the majority of the meetings will take place from ART sessions, to President Summits, State Board Rep meetings, the NCC boardroom and the NRHH Boardroom. There will be limited access to wireless internet while staying at Smoky Shadows. Å The NCC boardroom is a large spacious room that can accommodate all delegates attending the conference. This room will also be the room where we will eat meals for the weekend. The room will be set up classroom style with tables and chairs, however will be rearranged to banquet style for the closing banquet. 8 Each boardroom will be equipped with the capability of using power point and will have projectors set up in both of them. Optional Day Trip on Sunday There are many things for people to do in the Pigeon Forge area. Among the many things that can be done include Large Arcades, go carts, putt putt golf, shopping, fine dining, The Dixie Stampede, The Comedy Barn, etc. Pigeon Forge is also 5 minutes (max) away from Gatlinburg Tennessee which serves as host to many more fine dining establishments, factory outlets, shopping, skiing, ice skating, arcades, and even the Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies (the largest Aquarium in the Nationl prior to the Aquarium in Atlanta). For more information about things to do in Pigeon Forge go to www.pigeonforge.com For more information about things to do in Gatlinburg, check out www.gatlinburg.com Flying to No-Frills If you are flying to the No-Frills 2007 Conference, the airport that you will be flying into is McGhee Tyson Airport, Knoxville TN. This airport is about an hour away from Gatlinburg. The airport code is TYS. The airport website can be found here: http://www.tys.org/. If you have not informed the conference staff about your arrangements for travel to No-Frills please email them at stephen.varhall@maryvillecollege.edu. WEATHER Recently the weather in Tennessee has varied quite a bit from day to day, however it will most likely be pretty cold while you are staying in the Pigeon Forge. It is usually always 15-20 degrees colder in the Mountains then surrounding areas, so it is encouraged that everyone bring clothes in which they can stay warm while visiting the mountains. Here has been the weather forcasts for the past few days to give you an idea of how the weather has been recently: Wednesday February 14, 2007 Æ High/Low 35/19 Thursday February 15, 2007 Æ High/Low 36/14 Friday February 16, 2007 Æ High/Low 37/18 Saturday February 17, 2007 Æ High/Low 42/25 Sunday February 18, 2007 Æ High/Low 40/19 9 *Note the lows are in the teens, so make sure you dress for cold weather (Jacket, Gloves, Pants, Shoes, etc). Dress for the Weekend Although in years past it has been required to wear business attire to the boardroom, this year we will wear casual clothes. Even for the banquet on Saturday Night, it will be a casual banquet considering we will not have any time to go change and fancy up. However if you are bidding for a position, it is encouraged that you would look nice for your presentation. Also with the weather, it is going to be hard to dress in business attire when it is so cold. THEME This year the conference staff wanted to do something a little different for the No-Frills conference. They want to stick with the No-Frills theme, however they felt that it would be interesting to “insert” a murder mystery throughout the weekend. Therefore from the time that you arrive to No-Frills until Saturday night there will be clues around the conference facilities as well as murders that will take place. Your delegation will be given the chance to show your “investigative skills” as you try to solve the question…Who Done It. The delegations that solve the mystery correctly will win a prize. SCHEDULE Friday 2:00-6:45p.m. Registration/Check-In at Smoky Shadows 6:30-7:30 Dinner in the ballroom -- Dinner will be removed promptly at 7:30 6:00 Mandatory meeting with all RBD Candidates and their Host School Advisors with the SEC (this meeting will be done in the general location where everyone else will be). 8:00-12:00 Combined Boardroom (SEC ELECTIONS) (Also ART sessions) 12:00 12:45 Hospitality Room open 10 Saturday 7:00-8:00 Breakfast at Hotel (Ballroom) 8:00-12:00 Boardroom meetings (Also A.R.T. and SBD) 12:00-1:15 Lunch (Ballroom) 1:15-5:30 Boardroom meetings (Also A.R.T., SBD, and RHA Presidents) 5:30-6:30 State Meetings 6:30-7:30 Dinner (Banquet style in ballroom) 8:00-11:00 Boardroom meetings (Also ART sessions) 12:00-12:45 Hospitality Room open Sunday 7:00-10:00 Breakfast at Hotel 11:00 School Check Out by 11:00 a.m. 10:00-12:00 Mandatory Meeting with RBD-Elect and No-Frills 2008 Conference Bid team **This schedule is flexible and meant more as a guideline (with the only thing being completely set in stone are the meal times). BIDDING FOR REGIONAL BOARD POSITIONS Are you bidding for a Regional Board of Directors Position? If so, then you will be required to attend the 6:00 mandatory meeting with your host school advisor and the SEC. We will discuss the commitment in these positions as well as what it means to be a host support school. If you have any questions about this please let me know at omalleyrha@gmail.com or 865.405.1444. Also if you are elected to the Regional Board of Directors (RBD) you will be required to stay until 12:00p.m. on Sunday so make plans accordingly. When bidding for a Regional Position, you must give a presentation. The presentations for all positions will be 8 minutes except for Regional Director which will be 10 minutes. Officer presentations can use PowerPoint and other media devices, but all candidates are encouraged to remember the importance of a presentation is to express what the candidate wants to accomplish in the position and what qualifications and experience the candidate can bring to the position. Remember do not rely too much on media for media is merely a tool, while the real importance is in the content of the presentation. 11 BIDDING TO HOST NO-FRILLS 2007 Remember that if you are bidding to Host No-Frills 2007 and you are selected as the Conference Host you will be required to stay until 12:00p.m. on Sunday for a transition period with this year’s conference staff so make sure you plan accordingly. To bid to host No-Frills there is a 10 minute bid presentation. Remember you can use powerpoint, etc in your presentation but your presentation should not rely totally on the use of the power point presentation.

We vote, we vote, and we vote. No-Frills is the SAACURH Business Meeting. It is at this meeting where we will vote on many SAACURH Awards, elect next year’s Regional Officers, and elect a conference host school from No-Frills 2008. At No-Frills, much like SAACURH, we run two boardrooms, 1 for NCCs and 1 for NRHH Reps. Below I have listed which bids will be voted on in which board rooms that will take place: 13 Combined Boardrooms OCM Presentation with Samantha Fell NIC Presentation with Amy Perrey Servant Leadership Presentation with Ashley Glaw NACURH 2007 Conference Presentation NACURH Semis Presentation Legislation for NACURH Presentation *Election of SAACURH Officers Various SAACURH Legislation Budget Approval for FY 2007-2008 *No-Frills 2008 NCC BOARDROOM NRHH BOARDROOM On Campus Marketing Distinguished Service Award First Year Experience Award Advisor of the Year NRHH Member of the Year Commitment to Diversity NRHH Chapter of the Year On Campus Marketing NCC of the Year NRHH Building Block Chapter School of the Year SEAHO Student of the Year Award Building RHA Legislation Hallenbeck Award Legislation *These bids require a presentation PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE In SAACURH, we use a version of Robert’s Rules, but they are more of a watered down version called Bob’s Rules of Order. Basically with that, the chair has a little more leeway in how to run the boardroom and what to do in the boardroom. I have attached on the next page a list of basic parliamentary procedure that you will find on the back of your placard. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me prior to the conference to ask these questions: 14 15 I have also included the procedure that we will follow for the various different awards and bids we will encounter: POSITIONAL BIDS For SAACURH Positional bids, we will start with the SAACURH Director position and work down. The following order will be Director, ADBA, AD-NRHH, REDC, RPC, RAC, NRHH Advisor. With these elections, we will accept nominations from the floor for only the positions that have not had bids submitted. Candidates can also drop down to another position if and only if the position has not had a bid turned in. When voting you can either vote 1) Aye for a particular Person, or No Confidence. So if there is 4 people you would vote either AYE and write one of the four people’s names down, or you would vote No-Confidence. In order to win, a candidate must have a majority which is defined at 50+1. Voting Procedures: 1) Presentation of Candidate 1 a. For the Director the candidates gets 10 minutes, for any other position the candidates only get 7 minutes. b. Q/A – 5 minutes which can be extended c. Pro/Con – 5 minutes.

For the Director the candidates gets 10 minutes, for any other position the candidates only get 7 minutes. b. Q/A – 5 minutes which can be extended c. Pro/Con – 5 minutes. Remember with pro/con try to keep it limited to 3-5 words. i. The pro/con session will be over after 5 minutes or 3 unanswered pro/con. *We will do this same procedure for each candidate for that position. Once we have done presentations, Q/A, and Pro/Con for each candidate running for a position we will then have a 5 minute discussion. In this section you can feel free to utilize compare and contrast such as: Whereas Candidate 1 has boardroom experience, Candidate 2 does not. After a 5 minute discussion, which can be extended by a motion, we will move into a vote. We will vote until a candidate gets a majority (50+1) votes. 16 Award Bids For award bids, we will work on the bids based upon the decision of the chair of each boardroom. The award bids will follow a similar guideline as the positional bids except that it will not have a presentation involved. Below is the procedure for the Award Bids: 1) Give a few minutes to look over bids a. Award Bid Candidate #1 i. Pro/Con Session – 5 minutes or until 3 unanswered pro/cons ii. We will do the Pro/Con session for each bid in that Award Category iii. After we have done pro/con for each bid, we will have a 5 minute discussion session which can be extended by a motion.

Lamar Alexander Parkway, Maryville, TN 37804) 20 Association of Alumni and Friends of NACURH (AAFN) In January, 1982, the NACURH National Board of Directors (NBD) approved a resolution authorizing a NACURH alumni association. This brochure was designed to introduce the "Association of Alumni and Friends of NACURH" to the general membership. In a nutshell, for a minimum contribution of $100 to the NACURH reserve fund that was established, any individual may join the association. Contributions to the association will not be spent; however, interest monies generated from this reserve fund will be available for current needs if necessary. It is anticipated that interest monies will ultimately be used for leadership development and recognition scholarships once the initial membership goal is realized. The primary benefit to any individual who joins will be recognition of support. The individual's name, institution of choice, and year of personal significance will be published as part of the conference program along with appropriate recognition at the annual conference closing awards banquet each year. In addition, this brochure will be annually updated, distributed at national and regional conferences, and sent to all individuals on the alumni and friends mailing list. It is anticipated that this will generate symbolic as well as actual support of NACURH by individuals who were active in NACURH or from other professionals who were active as advisors but are no longer able to attend our annual conference. Members of the alumni and friends association will receive an invitation to attend and be recognized at each annual NACURH Conference. Each year, money shall be included in the regional budget to induct up to five members into the Association of Alumni and Friends of NACURH. The SEC shall select up to five inductees based upon nomination forms submitted by members within the region. The regional inductees should show marked accomplishments regionally and be an inspiration and positive role model for student leaders in SAACURH. Selection of these inductees should take place sometime before or during the No Frills conference and be announced before the end of the No Frills conference. Cost for induction into the AAFN is $100.00 and all recipients receive a special paperweight from the NSRO and will be included in the list of AAFN members published every year. All nomination forms are due to Shaun O’Malley at omalleyrha@gmail.com, 502 E. Lamar Alexander Parkway, Maryville, TN 37804, or in person at the close of registration on Friday night of the No-Frills Conference. Outside of SAACURH, your host institution can also nominate people for AAFN by paying $100.00. All host school nominations are automatically approved (pending National Chair approval), however the ones submitted to be a part of the 5 regional nominations will go through an extensive review by the SAACURH Executive Committee. For more information about the Association of Alumni and Friends of NACURH please contact me. To become a member of AAFN, please fill out the form and send $100.00 to the address below. 21 AAFN Association of Alumni and Friends of NACURH This Invoice is Issued To : Number of Inductees at $100.00 each: Name of each Inductee and their Institution and Region: Permanent address of each inductee: Short bio on each inductee (involvement, reason for induction): Please remit check payable to AAFN for $100.00 per inductee.
