Darden, Jr., Visitors Barksdale, Coxe, Dunn, Emmett, Gravatt, Gray, Howard, McWane, Mears,
Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Talbott. Absent: Miss Wheeler. When this Committee was appointed at the request of the President by the Rector at the meeting
of the Board of Visitors on May 14, 1954, it was given no special assignment, but was assigned as
its general objectives the betterment of student conduct, a study of disciplinary procedures, and
the promotion of good relations between the Students of the University and the Administration
When the Board met in special session on May 26, 1954, your Chairman was advised by several students
that they desired to meet with your Committee. Realizing that the special meeting of the Board
would consume that entire day and run into the following day, your Chairman, on the morning of
May 27th, advised the spokesman for the students that the Committee would be glad to meet with them
that afternoon, May 27th. However, your Chairman was informed that it would be impossible for the
students to meet with your Committee that afternoon, but that they would like to appear before the
full Board at its June meeting. That evening, May 27th, a mass meeting of students was held, and
the seven students who at their request appeared before the Board at its June meeting appeared on
the platform and four of them addressed the mass meeting | | | Similar Items: | Find |

list of vacant lots and lands owned by the University As you know, both Mr. Woodward and I have been concerned about the number
of students who apply for admission, pay the ten-dollar application fee, are
accepted and assigned a dormitory room, and cancel at the last minute or just
fail to appear. Apparently the forfeiture of a ten-dollar application fee is
not much of a deterrent. Many of these students have made application elsewhere
and are simply holding the space here as something to fall back on if they should
not be admitted to the institution of their first choice. | | | Similar Items: | Find |

Washington Committee in over a year, and I feel that the present members of this Committee are
unbiased and would not under any circumstances knowingly and willingly condone an injustice or
aid or abet any attempt to discredit anyone, I feel compelled, with your indulgence, to make
the following statement On Friday at the meeting of the Board of Visitors, Mr. Dowell Howard read to the Board members
