 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
