What Officers and Executive Committees do we have?
Top flight speakers and college officials broaden our views and offer helpful suggestions and criticisms. We share experiences among ourselves and through panel programs, workshops, and 'after hour' sessions. We have strengthened the partnership between government recruiters and college placement officers. We continually survey our needs and the resources with which we have to work. As resources shrink, priorities change, and new challenges confront our members, the networks we form through SEFRC provide the information, relationships and resources needed to meet our goals.

How did we get started?
The Council resulted from a conversation in 1957 between Bob Paty of the Civil Service Commission (CSC) and Bob Reeves of Brookley AFB. Bob Paty was then CSC Recruiting Officer for the Atlanta Region. The two Bobs were exploring ways to step up and improve college recruitment, and they concluded that a professional association of Federal recruiters would be an aid. The idea was not new, we found, but new to us.

How long have we had a Council?
We organized in 1958 in Atlanta. Our first planned conference was in July 1959 at Brookley AFB, Alabama. Many college placement officers and college officials were our guests. We met in 1960 and 1961 in Atlanta. For our 1962 conference, we moved to Gatlinburg to avoid the distractions of Atlanta conferees withdrawing from the conference to attend regular business. Our change in locale was so successful that we went back to Gatlinburg in 1963 and 1964.
