University of Virginia was held on this date in the Office of the President of the University of
Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia, with the following present. The Rector, Barron F. Black,
President Colgate W. Darden, Jr., of the University of Virginia; Visitors Anderson, Barksdale,
Carrington, Garnett, Gravatt, Howard, Mears, Smith, Talbott, Wailes, and Willis. Absent: Dr. M. L.
Combs, President of Mary Washington College, Visitor Gay. Over the years, a confusing situation has developed in the use of academic titles in the
Department of Medicine. The word "clinical" is used in some titles and omitted in the titles of
others who have similar responsibilities and salary arrangements, residents have been listed in
the announcement as instructors without approval of the President or Board of Visitors, there has
been no designation for research workers on temporary appointments and paid from funds obtained
from outside sources. Your Committee, consisting of the Rector, Barron F. Black, Thomas B. Gay and E. C. Anderson,
Chairman, have had the subject of this report under consideration for more than a year. On
May 13, 1949, the Committee recommended that an office of publicity, public relations and fund-raising
be created and that a suitable person be found to direct all activities of this office. Up
to the present time, it has not been possible to find a person qualified to assume the position,
and, therefore, your Committee offers the following suggestion as a substitute and as a method for
carrying on the work begun by the Development Fund until a more permanent arrangement can be made. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
