 Description: A special meeting of the Rector and Visitors was held on this date at 11 O'clock in the office of the President, with the following present: The Rector, E. R. Stettinius, Jr., Visitors E. C. Anderson, Mrs. J. M. H. Willis, M. H. Bustard, Thomas B. Gay, and G. Tyler Miller; President Newcomb and President Combs. I have brought your letter to the attention of Governor Fuck and he has requested me to write you and ask you to initiate the action necessary to call a special meeting of the Board of Visitors to reconsider their action rejecting the proposal to admit male veterans as day students at the Mary Washington College. The Governor feels that the action of the Board of Visitors is directly at odds with the policy of the State Board of Education and the policy he has set forth himself in regard to veterans education. If there are male veterans in the vicinity of Fredericksburg, married or single, who would find it more convenient to attend Mary Washington College, the Governor feels that they must be allowed to do so. Since the time remaining before the opening of the Fall term is short, the Governor urges you to re-open this matter with the Board as soon as possible.
