RESIGNATION OF NATIVE AMERICAN RECRUITER John Salter, who had been the Native American recruiter for the University of Iowa, has resigned from his position. His resignation, effective November 1976, leaves the University without a disignated Native American recruiter. Salter who held the position for 1 1/2 years will become Director of a Social Services Program in New York. He was a dynamic man with many diverse activities. As an Assistant Professor of Urban and Regional Planning his community affiliations included: Chairman, Native American Community Organizational Training Center based in Chicago, Chairman, Native American Community Health Services in Chicago, and serves as a Board Member for the American Indian Business Association of the Midwest and Chicago, and the Vacariate Social Action Council of Roman Catholic Churches of Iowa City. John Salter released the following statement concerning his former position as Native American Recruiter: In early November, when I resigned I sent a letter to Dean Hubbard which expressed the need for: 1) a full-time Indian person to handle recruiting and couselling. 2) that this person should relate directly to the Director of Special Support services and receive a salary and expenses comparable to his/her Black and Chicano counterparts. 3) this person should be thoroughly familiar with the upper-Midwest region - among other things. 4) this person should be directly involved, in a primary sense, in any development of an Indian studies grouping. 5) I've offered to locate possible persons. In conversations with Colleen Jones (Director of SSS) I have expressed the importance of having hte Indian students 'directly' involved in the decision of picking the Indian Recruiter/Counselor, and she has agreed readily.
