Board of Visitors | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Board of Visitors minutes | | | | Published: | 1926 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-BoardOfVisitorsMinutes | | | | Description: | The regular annual meeting of the Rector and Visitors
was held on this date at 10 a.m., with the following members
present: Hart, Hull, McIntire, Rinehart, Scott, Williams,
Walker and President Alderman. It is my sad duty to announce to the faculty and students
of the University the death of Professor Charles
Hancockk in the fifty-seventh year of his age. The Committee appointed to select and recommend
sites for fraternity houses met today and after viewing
the locations, make the following recommendation: At a meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial
held on May 24, 1926, the following resolution was passed
on behalf of the University of Virginia: I have this day received your communication of
June 3rd containing the resolution of the Board of
Trustees of the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial,
wherein a sum not to exceed $137,500 was appropriated
to the University of Virginia toward its program of
research in the Social Sciences. I shall present
this resolution to the Rector and Visitors of the
University at their meeting on June 14th, and shall
at that time convey their expression, as the Governing
Body of the University, of their deep appreciation of
this action. In the meantime, I can perhaps personally
assure you of my own profound sense of obligation
to you for the patient thought you have given to the
matter, and I assure you that I shall want to carry
out the work which this money is intended to promote,
with the very highest desire to have the exact thing
that the Board intends to get done in our American
life. At a meeting of the committee representing
the Richmond Alumni of the University, it was unanimously
voted to offer to the University the support of a Research
Professor in the School of History. We expect to raise
$4,000 a year for five years for the support of this Chair.
We decided to specify history because we feel that it will
make a stronger appeal to the Alumni. We will be in a
position later in the summer to arrange the details necessary
to establishing this Chair with the authorities of
the University. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
