was held on this date at 10:30 A. M., with the following members
present: Rector Gordon and Visitors Hatton, Irvine,
Michie and White. Mr. Turnbull did not arrive until 5:30 P. M.,
just at the close of the meeting. President Alderman was present.
Reading of the minutes of the last meeting was dispensed
with. I have been advised by the Bursar
that the rule of the Board of Visitors, which has been in
operation for some years, granting an automatic increase
of ten per cent in the salary of those professors who have
served for a term of six years has been suspended for the
coming year. The committee appointed to consider ways
and means for teaching Chemistry next session reported
to you that part of the new chemical laboratory would have
to be furnished if the lectures in Chemistry and the courses
in Analytical Chemistry are to be given at all. The makeshift
adopted since the fire was an utterly impossible situation,
and we are deprived of this by the closing of Peabody
Hall next year. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
