Board of Visitors | Add | | | Title: | Board of Visitors minutes (1906) July 7, 1906  | | | | Published: | 1906 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia::Board of Visitors | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | At an adjourned meeting of the Board of Visitors, held
at the University on above date, I have the pleasure to send you under another cover a
copy of the rules for the granting of retiring allowances by
the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. As
the gifts stands at present, institutions like the University
of Virginia, which are controlled by the State, are not admitted
officially to its benefits, that question being left
to be determined at the meeting of the Trustees in November.
Meantime, however, at a meeting held yesterday, the Executive
Committee decided to invite a few distinguished scholars to
accept such retiring allowances as a recognition of unusual
and extraordinary service as a scholar. In accordance with
this resolution, I have the honor to inform you that the Committee
of the Carnegie Foundation invites you to accept a retiring
allowance of two thousand dollars ($2,000.) a year,
this to begin from July 1, 1906. As you will note by the
rules, one-half of this allowance, when granted to a teacher,
is paid to his wife should she survive him. Your letter of the 22 inst. is duly received. By it I
am informed that the Executive Committee of the Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching invites me to accept
a retiring allowance of two thousand dollars ($2000.) a
year, to begin from July 1st, 1906, to which is added that one-half
of this allowance is granted to my wife should she survive
me. Will you please ask the Rector and Visitors of the University
at their pending session on the 7th inst., to grant
me permission to retire from active service in the University
as Professor of Moral Philosophy. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
