of Virginia was held on this date in the Office of the President of the University, at
Charlottesville, with the following present: The Rector, Barron F. Black; President Colgate W.
Darden, Jr., Visitors Coxe, Dunn, Emmett, Gravatt, Gray, Howard, McWane, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Smith,
Talbott, and Wheeler. Absent: Visitors Barksdale and Mears. In their Annual Reports for 1952-53, the Divisions of Philosophy and Psychology of the
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 |

at its September 10th meeting and at your request, I have consulted the Faculties of the
University that would be directly involved concerning the establishment under University administration
of a two-year college program at Wise, Virginia. I am glad to report that the Faculties
of the College and of the Schools of Education and Engineering, without a dissenting vote,
adopted resolutions approving in principle the establishment under University administration of
one or more University branches in which the first two years of college work would be offered under
regulations approved by the Faculties. I am glad to report, also that following this favorable
action by the Faculties, the question was referred to the University Senate for its consideration
and that at its January 4th meeting the Senate likewise adopted a resolution approving in
principle the establishment of one or more branches under the provision specified by the
faculties concerned. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
