 Description: The annual meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia was held on this 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.
