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.,
Chancellor Grellet C. Simpson, Visitors Berkeley, Bryan, Coxe, Emmett, Gravatt, Greear,
Hartfield, Howard, Jones, McWane, Martin, Pollock, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith, and Wheeler. Absent:
Visitor Gray. The committee which you recently appointed to study the program in the
Department of Nursing thought that the tuition in the Department should be
increased to that obtaining in the College of Arts and Sciences, effective
with the 1957-58 session. Confirming my conversation with you of several days ago, I am enclosing herewith
the last will and testament of Roy C. Moyston. You will notice that on page 5, Article
V (B) one-half of the community estate of Mr. and Mrs. Moyston and all of his
separate estate is left to the Jefferson Sponsors Fund for the use and benefit
of the Law Department of the University of Virginia, and if said fund be not
then in existence, then to said University of Virginia for the use and benefit
of the Law Department. Since the Jefferson Sponsors Fund is not in existence,
it is my interpretation that the money in question goes to the Rector and
Visitors of the University of Virginia, a corporation, and should be handled
by the University of Virginia's attorney, Venable Minor. This is to advise you that the City of Falls Church proposes to offer the sum
of $100,000.00 for that tract of land in the City know as the Joseph H. Riley
tract, located at the corner of Park Avenue and Little Falls Street, containing
8.321 acres of land. The University house on East Range at present occupied by Dr. David C. Wilson
has suddenly become vacant as a result of Professor Wilson's resignation, effective
July 1st. In accordance with your request, I have given careful consideration to Mr.
Talbott's letter to you of May 21, 1956, asking for an opinion from me on the
admissibility of a male Negro applicant to the College of Liberal Arts of the
University of Virginia. The application is accompanied by credentials which
show him to be otherwise entitled to admission. The fact that the State of
Virginia maintains a liberal arts college for Negroes at Petersburg, under the
name of Virginia State College, has also been noted. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
