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. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
