session on the 27th day of June 1887. The Library Committee respectfully report that they have
examined the report of James B. Baker, Librarian; The list of
Publications by members of the Faculty from July 1886 to June
1887; and the communication of Moncure D. Conway, Esq, asking
permission to copy and use "any manuscripts or papers at the
University of Va by or relating to the late Hon. Edmund Randolph"
and they recommend that the two resolutions accompanying
this report be adopted. (The 2 resolutions here referred
to are the last two on the next preceding page of this book) Your Committee on Grounds, Buildings & Boarding Houses
respectfully report. The Board met this morning pursuant to adjournment on
yesterday. Having understood that your Hon. body is still unsatisfied
as to the reconsideration of the resolution adopted with
respect to the School of English, which reconsideration I requested
in my statement already submitted, I have the honor
to request that the matter be laid over until the next annual
meeting of the Board, Within that time your Hon. body can
examine more carefully into the objections made as to the
conduct of the School, & I can have the opportunity of removing
any that in your judgment, may really exist. In the
mean time, I should be obliged for any suggestions as to
change in the course of instruction, which I shall endeavor
to carry out. I have in my statement indicated certain
changes in the position of this school with respect to the
degrees which would greatly benefit the school, if adopted
by your Hon. body. I feel confident, that under such circumstances
all objections would be satisfactorily removed. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
