our son who attended the University of Virginia, I am making the following written request for
the use of the funds donated under contract of May 12, 1950, which funds become available for
use to the University of Virginia after the death of both Mrs. Case and myself After carefully reviewing the history of the development of the teaching of Architecture at
the University of Virginia the following facts appear to be of special significance I enclose herewith a recommendation from Professor Fitz Patrick that the Division of
Architecture of the McIntire Department of Fine Arts be changed in status in the University
to the McIntire School of Architecture. I have discussed the matter with him and I heartily
recommend that the change be made. Report of Committee on Award of Bayly-Tiffany Funds. Authority is requested by officials of Mary Washington College of the University of
Virginia to prepare a plan for the Board's approval to grant an easement of right of
way to W. C. Spratt over the college property from Virginia Route #3 to the property of
W. C. Spratt situated in Spotsylvania County Virginia and to obtain for the college an easement
of right of way over the property of W. C. Spratt which divides the college property.
Authority is further requested to prepare a plan or plans for the approval of the Board to
exchange real estate by W. C. Spratt and the college should it be deemed mutually beneficial. | | | Similar Items: | Find |

Corcoran Department of Philosophy and Psychology strongly recommended that they be established
as separate academic Departments. This recommendation is wholly in accord with the pronounced
trend of recent years in regard to such matters, and I heartily concur in it. Each of the
Divisions is amply large in both staff and enrollment to be a Department, they are housed in
widely separated buildings, and they function quite independently of each other You will recall that I have, in the past, had some correspondence with you in reference to the
Lynchburg Chapter of the University of Virginia Loan Fund, and as of September 30, 1953, you
forwarded to me a statement not only of the assets, but of the notes receivable. At one
of our Lynchburg Alumni Meetings of recent date, we unanimously passed a motion to the effect
that we desire that the Lynchburg Alumni Loan Fund be returned to our Chapter for deposit in one
of Lynchburg's banks in order that we may earn interest on the money when it lays idle as it has
in the majority of years since 1924, and we believe that by having it in a local bank we can use
this money to help students through University in many more cases, for as I informed you in past
correspondence, for so many years we did not realize that this fund was still in effect at your
office, therefore, would you please be so kind as to inform me as to the manner in which I
should approach you for the release of such funds to our chapter In reference to your request for an estimate on the renovation of the Wright cottage, see

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
your statement made to the Mary Washington College Committee when it met in Fredericksburg on
December 9, 1954. I was asked to reply to this statement. I have read the resolution today adopted by the Board. It has my full approval and the
implementation of it will have my full cooperation. In so doing I will: | | | Similar Items: | Find |
