REGIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS

The President reported that the Board last spring had approved the establishment of
regional scholarships for one year only, with the request that the matter be brought to them for
consideration before being continued.

The President stated that he felt the first year's experience with these scholarships
had shown that they are a great advantage to the University and should assist in the attraction of
outstanding students to the University. A report of the award of these scholarships during the
first year had been sent to the members of the Board in June, whereupon a resolution was adopted
authorizing the continuance of these scholarships.
