PRINCIPLES Reference: ACM Minutes, Sept 15, 1970 "The purpose of the Information Center is to provide reliable information to the media and to the community with the hope that accurate information will diminish any crisis which may be occurring."

Information Evaluation: all information received must be carefully evaluated as to its accuracy and relevancy. C. Information Dissemination: the Center should have direct input to tall media and it will also issue mimeograph bulletins with up-to-date information. The bulletins will need to have a distinctive symbol for identification purposes. D.
