Administrative History
In February 1968, the Bucknell University Christian Association was renamed Concern Through Action (CONTACT) and was often referred to as C.A. It was a student group advised by James Hammerlee, director of Student Programs. The group was initially organized into three committees: interfaith, interpersonal (social service), and international. The group organized activities included volunteer/social services, freshman camp, resident and international colloquy, firesides, Cowan weekends, Free University, and World University Service (WUS). In 1971, the name was changed to Concern and Action.
