 Description: The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia was held on this date in the Office of the President of the University, at Charlottesville, with the following present. The Rector, Barron F. Black, President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., Visitors Barksdale, Coxe, Dunn, Emmett, Gravatt, Howard, McWane, Mrs. Smith, Talbott, and Wheeler. Absent: Visitors Gray, Mears, and Mr. Smith. On the enclosed list we have set forth a number of gifts to the Graduate School of Business which, at the time of receipt, were added to the Consolidated Endowment Fund. Now that a separate fund has been established for the Graduate School, I believe it advisable to transfer these funds from the Consolidated Endowment Fund to the new fund. Under authority granted by the Governor on November 12, 1954, Mary Washington College has been authorized to borrow from current funds in the State Treasury $1,356,515.57 with interest at the rate of one per centum per annum, beginning January 20, 1955 until paid. $1,356,515.57

 Description: The Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia convened at 10:00 A.M. on this date in executive session in the Office of the Chancellor of Mary Washington College, at Fredericksburg, with the following present. Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Gravatt, Greear, Hartfield, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mr. Smith, Talbott, and Wheeler. Absent: Visitors Emmett, Gray, Howard, and Mrs. Smith. As an admirer of Senator Harry Flood Byrd of Virginia, I should like to see a fund or endowment established at the University of Virginia in recognition of his conspicuous service to our country, especially in the field of public finance. We now have one hundred (100) Regional Scholarships for Virginians, which the Scholarship Committee feels is quite adequate. However, funds for out-of-state regionals have been very limited and the Scholarship Committee has been most anxious to find ways of increasing the number of these awards, for the following reasons Mr. Runk and I have discussed various ways of operating the Cavalier Daily. It is our opinion that it would be unwise to discontinue the current support of the Daily by an assessment against the student body. The reason the fee was initially instituted was because student subscriptions were limited largely to entering students and one or two subscriptions per fraternity house. The older boys just would not subscribe sufficiently to cover the operating cost. Confirming our conversation of this morning, we welcome the opportunity to advise that the layout and design of the proposed Children's Rehabilitation Center has been approved without qualification by representatives of the Clinical Departments most concerned with the project, the Departments of Nursing Service, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Dietary, and the Hospital Administration. It is the impression of all concerned that the building as designed is adequate and admirably suited for the contemplated Children's Rehabilitation Program. Functionally, it will provide for efficient operation both from a clinical and administrative standpoint. The plans have also received favorable review by informed individuals not connected with the University who have had extensive experience in Children's Rehabilitation in the various specialized areas such as clinical care, therapy, nursing and administration. The University Sports Club would like for you to request permission of the Board for the Club to conduct sports car trials on Observatory Mountain sometime early next fall.

 Description: The annual meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia was held on this date at 10:00 a.m. in the Office of the President of the University, at Charlottesville, with the following present. The Rector, Frank Talbott, Jr., President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., Chancellor Grellet C. Simpson, Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gravatt, Greear, Hartfield, Howard, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Wheeler. Absent: Visitor Gray. The committee which you recently appointed to study the program in the Department of Nursing thought that the tuition in the Department should be increased to that obtaining in the College of Arts and Sciences, effective with the 1957-58 session. Confirming my conversation with you of several days ago, I am enclosing herewith the last will and testament of Roy C. Moyston. You will notice that on page 5, Article V (B) one-half of the community estate of Mr. and Mrs. Moyston and all of his separate estate is left to the Jefferson Sponsors Fund for the use and benefit of the Law Department of the University of Virginia, and if said fund be not then in existence, then to said University of Virginia for the use and benefit of the Law Department. Since the Jefferson Sponsors Fund is not in existence, it is my interpretation that the money in question goes to the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia, a corporation, and should be handled by the University of Virginia's attorney, Venable Minor. This is to advise you that the City of Falls Church proposes to offer the sum of $100,000.00 for that tract of land in the City know as the Joseph H. Riley tract, located at the corner of Park Avenue and Little Falls Street, containing 8.321 acres of land. The University house on East Range at present occupied by Dr. David C. Wilson has suddenly become vacant as a result of Professor Wilson's resignation, effective July 1st. In accordance with your request, I have given careful consideration to Mr. Talbott's letter to you of May 21, 1956, asking for an opinion from me on the admissibility of a male Negro applicant to the College of Liberal Arts of the University of Virginia. The application is accompanied by credentials which show him to be otherwise entitled to admission. The fact that the State of Virginia maintains a liberal arts college for Negroes at Petersburg, under the name of Virginia State College, has also been noted.

 Description: The Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia met at 10:00 A.M. on this date, by call of The Rector, in the Office of the President of the University, at Charlottesville, with the following present. The Rector, Frank Talbott, Jr., President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., Chancellor Grellet C. Simpson, Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gray, Greear, Hartfield, Howard, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, and Wheeler. Absent: Visitors Gravatt and Mr. Smith. The University's Special Counsel, Mr. C. Venable Minor, was present during a portion of the meeting and participated in discussions of the real estate transactions at Fredericksburg, Falls Church, and Clinch Valley as outlined below. The present R.O.T.C. units at the University of Virginia, starting with the Navy in 1940, have been organized at the request of the University. The enrollment in these units is covered by public law. Enrollment is entirely voluntary. (This is not the case at the so-called land grant colleges and universities). The first two years (first year only for the Naval ROTC Regulars) a member may withdraw at his own request. Approval of the resignation is accomplished at the Unit Command level. Starting with the third year, ROTC members receive subsistence compensation, and approval of the resignation can only be made at Departmental (or delegated) level. At a meeting of the Nursing School Advisory Committee, with all members present this morning, it was unanimously agreed that the plan of reorganization of the Department of Nursing as a separate School of Nursing with the arrangements which we have discussed previously, be recommended to you and to the Board of Visitors. To be more specific, we should like to recommend that the Department of Nursing become The University of Virginia School of Nursing, with a separate dean and with full academic status as a separate school within the University. It would be understood that in academic matters the School of Nursing would have complete autonomy, but that in administrative matters effecting the Medical Center, the Dean of the School of Nursing would answer to the Director of the Medical Center (the Dean of the Medical School). Pursuant to their appointment by this Board in June, 1956, as its committee to study the question of where the Northern Virginia branch of the University should be located, the undersigned, as a first step in their inquiry, held a public hearing in Alexandria on July 21, after issuing special invitations to the members of the General Assembly in the area and the authorities of the several political subdivisions, as well as general invitations through the press to the interested public, to attend and assist the committee by giving it their views and such information as they thought might be helpful. Thereafter the committee personally investigated the sites suggested, interviewed those persons having particular knowledge of the different tracts, made measurements of the time and distance of the several locations from the populous areas and from the rural sections to be served, and considered the availability thereto of public transportation, sewerage facilities, and water supplies as well as the accessibility of the property by highway, and their situation with respect to the high schools in Northern Virginia. I am writing you relative to the proposed plan for the construction of a new dormitory housing approximately 176 students for which we have an appropriation of $192,500.00.

 Description: The Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia held its regular meeting at 10:00 A.M. on this date at the University, convening in open session in Room 202 Rouss Hall, with the following present: President Colgate W. Darden, Jr. and Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gravatt, Greear, Hartfield, Howard, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Wheeler. Absent: The Rector, Frank Talbott, Jr. and Visitor Gray. Most of the members of the public present during the morning session were delegations and individuals who appeared before the Board on behalf of various sites for the proposed Northern Virginia College of the University. Several representatives of the press were also present. Confirming our conversation concerning an employee of Seward Forest who is sick with cancer, the circumstances are as follows: The present regulation for admission of women students to Engineering calls for at least 60 semester-hours credit and a minimum age of 20. This was passed by the Board of Visitors sometime during the 20's so I wonder if it would not be well to reconsider the matter since opinions have changed quite a bit since that time. If you feel that it is advisable to present this matter to the Board of Visitors for reconsideration, I suggest that the minimum age be changed to 18 so an outstanding student who has completed two years of college elsewhere may be considered for admission. I agree with the requirement of 60 semester-hours as I do not believe it would be advisable for a girl of 16 or 17 to make the transition from high school to college in a predominantly boys' school.

The Rector, Frank Talbott, Jr.; President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., and Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gravatt, Gray, Greear, Hartfield, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Wheeler. Chancellor Simpson and Mr. Woodward, Bursar of Mary Washington College, were present from 9:00 to 9:30 to discuss matters relating to the College, and Mr. L. Burwell Gunn and Mr. Donald Willcox of the State-Planters Bank were present from 10:10 to 11:00 to discuss the current investments of the Consolidated Endowment Funds. At our regular Council meeting held on January 7, 1957 I presented the plan which I discussed with you on December 24, for the widening of Jefferson Park Avenue from its intersection with Main Street back to the Hospital entrance. Enclosed is a copy of the proposal of the Committee on Private Practice of the Clinical Staff of the Medical School. This proposal has been reviewed by the Dean and approved by him, and I went over it yesterday with Dr. Vest. You will recall that before you left for your trip around the world I mentioned that the Committee on Contractual Relations was considering a new type of insurance provided by the Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association.

Simpson, and Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gravatt, Gray, Greear, Hartfield, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Wheeler. Mr. Edgar E. Woodward, Bursar of Mary Washington College, was present during the discussion of the College budget. I have your letter of March 28, 1957, requesting my opinion in regard to the above captioned matter, and I have given careful consideration to the correspondence enclosed therewith. It is my understanding, however, that the University is not interested in the arguments as to whether or not the J.A.G. School will have to obtain and pay for a license to dispense beer, but is interested in whether or not it can legally consent to the issuance of such license for sale of beer on University property. My opinion will therefore be confined to that point. Board of Visitors' action on the attached indenture is in order, and I suggest that the Board consider a motion to instruct its Secretary to communicate to Mr. Edward S. Handy, in care of Mr. Junius Fishburne of the Peoples National Bank, Charlottesville, Virginia, their satisfaction over, and acceptance of, the provisions of the deed. In further reference to our telephone conversation of a few days ago in regard to the exchange of the University and Equitable Realty Corporation, whereby Equitable Realty Corporation undertakes to convey in fee simple to the University, a triangular piece of land lying along the western boundary of the soccer field in exchange for a ninety-nine (99) year lease from the University of another triangular parcel adjoining the first, I am enclosing herewith a plat of the properties to be exchanged, on which the property to be conveyed to the University is designated as Parcel A and marked in blue, while the parcel to be leased to Equitable Realty is designated Parcel B and marked in red. At the direction of the Assembly of Professors of the University of Virginia I have the pleasure to transmit to you herewith a resolution passed by this body at a recent meeting. As you doubtless know this body is composed of all members of the University faculty of professorial rank. I am confident that the sentiments expressed in this resolution accurately express the feelings of the University faculty Word has reached the faculty of the Graduate School of Business Administration that you have expressed the intention of resigning from the presidency of the University within the next two years. At a meeting of the faculty of the School held on February 27 it was unanimously voted that I be instructed to write to you on behalf of the faculty and respectfully ask you to reconsider such a decision and remain in office for the full term of your office. We have just had a meeting of the law faculty at which concern was again expressed about your consideration of resignation. I am writing for myself and my colleagues, and at their direction, in saying that this would be a great misfortune to the University and to us personally. We heartily endorse the resolution of the Association of Professors

Visitor (ex officio) Paschall again unavoidably absent, has not yet taken his seat upon the Board. I had been looking forward to having an opportunity to come to the University this fall and to discuss with you the John Langbourne Williams Memorial Fund about which I wrote you under date of January 18, 1955. As a result of Elizabeth's illness I was not able to carry out my plan. I provided in my letter that if I did not by December 31, 1956 designate how the income from this fund was to be used, the income was to be used for the general purposes of the University. Since I would like it to be used for a special purpose and since I have not for the reason mentioned been able to discuss it with you, I am writing this letter to set forth how I would like for this fund to be handled. If it is not satisfactory in every particular, I shall be delighted to come to the University some time next year to discuss it with you. . . . Another subject has come up which I desire to present to you At a meeting with Mr. Malcolm Luck, Secretary of the University of Virginia Alumni Association, Mr. Knox Turnbull, Secretary of the Alumni Fund, Mr. Vincent Shea, Comptroller of the University, and myself, we agreed on January 31, and by subsequent letter approved, to recommend that In the light of recent discussions with Mr. Shea, Mr. Stacey and Dr. Bobbitt, I should like to request approval of a revision of the compensation arrangements in the Department of Clinical Pathology designed to bring them more nearly in line with scale in other schools and with the Department of Pathology in this school. It is proposed that all earnings from private ambulatory patients be segregated in a special fund in the Bursar's Office in the name of the Department of Clinical Pathology, that costs to the hospital for the maintenance of these services be paid from this fund and the remainder be used to supplement the salaries of individuals in the Department of Clinical Pathology, the limits on these salaries to be the same as those in the Department of Pathology, namely, the old pre-clinical scale plus up to 50%. Any surplus remaining is to used at the discretion of the Department. I have had some conferences and correspondence during the past several weeks with Charles E. Wheeler of Easton, Maryland, local counsel for this estate, with regard to the preparation of the second administration and distribution account and the Maryland estate tax return. REPORT OF BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE As Secretary of the Faculty I have the pleasant duty of enclosing the resolution which was adopted by the Faculty of Mary Washington College at its regular meeting on Monday night, May 13.

With the last wage increase, the maintenance costs of our dormitories will be greater than the revenue. I believe that we should raise our charges $25 per student for all accomodations. This would make the charge in the new dormitories $200 instead of the present $175. Basis for the request for an increase in the Student Health Service medical fee from $20 to $25 beginning in the Session 1958-1959. At a called meeting of the University Senate on October 3, 1957 the following programs were presented for final review and were approved. I should like now to recommend them to your office for submission to the Board of Visitors for its approval.

In an effort to determine the costs per student in the Law School, I have consulted with the State Auditors who made the last detailed cost study of the University. This study was made for the fiscal year 195253. Applying the general procedures of that study to our present costs, I have come up with the following I have your Special Delivery letter of November 27 requesting that I provide a set of written proposals to the Board of Visitors covering the sites recommended to the Board by our Board of Control in our letter of November 15th. I regret that you have not had a more prompt response, but I did not receive your letter until December 3rd (Tuesday) when it was forwarded to me in Richmond where I was on the General Assembly inspection tour. I have just returned from this duty.

Based on this opinion, I should like to recommend that the Board be asked this Saturday to reduce the library fee from the present $20.00 to $6.00, and that it be made applicable to all students enrolled. Based on the estimated enrollment next session of 5,000, this will yield $30,000, an amount more than adequate to cover the principal and interest charges. May I take this opportunity to submit the attached proposal for revising the statement of fees on pages 34 and 35 in the catalogue of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. If these proposals meet with your approval, would you please submit them to the Board for their action if this is necessary. I enclose copy of Mr. William Hanckel's letter concerning the above property. Mr. O'Grince and I have examined the property and recommend that the Board of Visitors be requested to authorize the purchase of the property, under the terms set forth in Mr. Hanckel's letter. Confirming our conversation of today, Mrs. Bowles would like to work out an arrangement whereby she would sell the University 39 acres less 9.818 acres. This 9.818 acres she will agree to sell the University when she desires to upon giving the University 90 day notice. Your special committee on the Paunch issue of The Spectator submits its report herewith. You asked us to determine whether or not this issue of The Spectator discredited the name of the University of Virginia, and if so, whether to a degree sufficient to warrant your bringing the matter before the Student Council. I send you this note to confirm the views expressed to you in our talk a few days ago about the Spectator. Since Mr. Carlson, the Editor, is not eligible to continue the direction of the magazine, because of academic probation, you will be required to appoint a new editor and approve the staff selected by him. In doing this I wish you to bear in mind that though you act as the Board chosen by the Jefferson Society which owns Spectator, you act also as representatives of the University. In fact as in the public understanding, a magazine published by a student group at the University, using University buildings and under the control of a society of the University with long and distinguished history, has an important sanction from the University. The public may with reason judge the University accordingly. The University's reputation is dear to all of us who serve it and love it. It is not the property of one small group to be dealt with in the uncontrolled judgment of that group, however honest that judgment may be. Our mutual friend and benefactor, Mrs. Preston Davie, has now given each of our institutions a work of art. To the University in 1956 came a small (25 3/8″h × 19 1/2″w) portrait of Raleigh, and to the Museum in 1957, a larger (45″h × 32 1/2″w) portrait of Burke. The official appraisals by French and Company are. Raleigh $7,500, Burke $8,500. I enclose photographs of each portrait. 1. The Board of Directors of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation has recently adopted the following resolution. That there be established "not later than the college year 1959-60 the Thomas Jefferson Foundation Fellowships paying $1,500.00 per annum plus tuition, in general along the lines set forth in the Memorandum of July 10, 1957, from Mr. Oron J. Hale, Chairman of the Department of History, to Mr. Colgate W. Darden, Jr., President of the University, and contribute up to $5,000.00 per year towards such Fellowships, with the understanding that this Foundation would match the amount put up by the University up to $5,000.00 and would, if Fellows of the desired type in sufficient number can be obtained, put up additional amounts, it being contemplated that the Foundation would in such case contribute at least $15,000.00 per year towards the expense of these Fellowships and quite possibly even more in the future." 1. The Corcoran Department of History recommends appointment of Dr. Dumas Malone as Thomas Jefferson Foundation Professor of History, effective July 1, 1959, and that during the session 1958-1959, when Dr. Malone will be on sabbatical leave from Columbia University, he be appointed Visiting Professor of History in the University of Virginia. The terms of the appointment are those stated in the "Resolution For The Board of Directors of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation," of which paragraph one specifies the grants and salary to be paid to Professor Malone by the Foundation. Salary and Foundation grants will amount to $15,000 annually. I concur with the Department of History in recommending that Dr. Dumas Malone be appointed Visiting Professor of History, without salary, for the academic year 1958-59 beginning July 1, 1958. During this time, Dr. Malone will be on sabbatical leave from Columbia University. It is my understanding that he will receive a supplemental research grant from the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation. I transmit to you the recommendation of the Corcoran Department of History, with my concurrence, that Dr. Dumas Malone be appointed Thomas Jefferson Foundation Professor of History effective July 1, 1959, for a term of three years, at a twelve month salary of $7,500 per year. I take pleasure in quoting the resolution unanimously adopted at a meeting of the University of Virginia Law School Foundation October 11, 1957, as follows Professional Leave for Graduate Study

 Description: The Annual Meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia was held on this date at 10:00 A. M. in the Office of the President of the University, at Charlottesville, with the following present. The Rector, Frank Talbott, Jr., President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., and Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Fenwick, Gray, Greear, Hartfield, Lantor, Montague, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Smith, and Wheeler. Chancellor Grellet C. Simpson and Bursar Edgar E. Woodward were present throughout consideration of Mary Washington College matters. Absent: Visitors Paschall (who had an urgent conflicting engagement) and Smith (who was in Charlottesville, though unwell, and participated in the work of three Board committees during the week-end) I wish to submit herewith my resignation as President of the University, to be effective as soon as the Board has selected a new President and he is prepared to take over the duties of this office On May 8 you requested me to find out from the local committee at Wise about what suggestions they had on the location of the auditorium authorized by the Assembly last winter. The committee at Wise has two recommendations first, that Mr. Charles B. McElroy be employed as architect on the gymnasium-auditorium, second, that the gymnasium-auditorium be located on the site between the Coeburn Road and the building now used for faculty apartments (the Old Detention Home) I should like to recommend two changes in the present TIAA-CREF annuity program, which should be presented to the Board if you approve. The Student Council wishes to submit the following traffic control recommendations for your consideration I am enclosing a revised copy of the regulations governing use of motor vehicles by students in the undergraduate schools of the University as approved unanimously by the Committee on Undergraduates at its meeting on Friday, May 30, 1958. This meeting was also attended by Miss Tyson from the School of Nursing and Mr. Nichols from the School of Architecture. I strongly recommend adoption of these regulations by the Board of Visitors and propose that they take effect with students entering in September, 1958. I feel that those sections dealing with warning, probation, and conviction of drunken and/or reckless driving should become effective for all undergraduate students in September, 1958 The Student Council at its meeting on May 19, 1958, unanimously passed the following motion. To recommend that all students who register cars have compulsory insurance As you know, Prof. Vyssotsky is retiring this June. Approximately 25 years ago he requested permission from the University to build a home near the observatory. President Newcomb advised him that he would bring the matter to the Board of Visitors and secure a lease for him. Mr. Vyssotsky said that he checked several times with Mr. Carruthers, who was then Secretary of the Board, to see if any action had been taken. He was assured that it would be forth coming and to proceed with the construction of his residence REPORT OF THE STUDENT ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE FOR THE SESSION 1957-58 At the Annual meeting of the Trustees of McGregor Fund careful consideration was given to your letter of April 28 and to a continuation of support of the Tracy W. McGregor Library at the University. I am pleased to report that the Trustees appropriated $12,000 a year for each of the five years commencing July 1, 1958, for accessions to the McGregor Library, and checks will be forthcoming quarterly as in the past, commencing around July 1
