520 3 a| The purpose of this study was (1) to write a history of the Music Educators National Conference Student Member Organization (SMO); (2) to conduct a critical review of current SMO programs contained in the 1977 Handbook; and (3) to recommend new programs and strategies for the future development of the SMO based on purposes (1) and (2). Historical data were collected from the Music Educators Journal, the Yearbook of the Conference (MENC), minutes of the National Steering Committee (of SMO), minutes of meetings of the Board of Directors of the MENC, personal records of national chairs of SMO, unpublished master's and doctoral theses, and from personal experience in the writer's ten years of service to the SMO. Since the SMO has been guided by its handbooks, a four-part item analysis form and opinionnaire was designed to determine at what level the official activities were thought to be effective. Members of the National Steering Committee (NSC) participated in the study. In Part I, sixty-four Handbook items were evaluated. Part II elicited ratings of six statements as to effectiveness of current SMO programs at various levels. In Part III the Committee evaluated certain selected procedures. Part IV solicited opinions and suggestions as to future development of the SMO. Data were analyzed and reported. Seven recommendations resulted from the analysis of data pertaining to a critical review of current programs, that (1) the MENC National Executive Board (NEB) encourage the NSC to originate and develop more meaningful programs for the SMO, (2) new procedures be developed for selecting local sponsors, (3) procedures for selecting division chairs be evaluated and perhaps redesigned, (4) new guidelines be formalized for the benefit of the chapter sponsor, (5) programs, projects, and activities of the SMO be regularly reviewed and expanded to benefit student members in the changing trends of music education, (6) some procedure for facilitating communication among the various levels of the SMO be established, and (7) MENC leaders exert creative efforts to alleviate financial difficulties wherever they appear. Recommendations made by NSC members include (1) increased attention should be paid to student participation at state, division, and national MENC meetings and to student input; (2) existing SMO programs should be reevaluated; (3) more support from the MIC should be sought; and (4) an effort should be made to develop pride and commitment on the part of local chapter advisors and supporting faculty and administration. A proposal of new programs, including a philosophy for the SMO, includes (1) providing a financial incentive to the chapter sponsor, (2) structuring the programs, projects, and activities of the SMO as academic entities with credit being given the student members, (3) student assistantships at state and national conventions, (4) increasing emphasis on new careers in music, and (5) reassessment of teacher-education programs, all designed to extend further the pre-professional experience in music education for the SMO member.;
