PRESIDENT’S REPORT

The Rector then asked the President to give his customary report.

The President noted that Mr. Robert Harris, Dean of the Darden School, has announced that he will step down as Dean in June; a search committee for a new Dean has been organized under the chairmanship of the Provost.

The University Press has issued its first electronic imprint, The Dolley Madison Digital Edition, which is an edited collection of letters. It is being supported by the Mellon Foundation, with matching funds from private unrestricted gifts.

The President reported that he and Mr. Sandridge have held two open meetings for faculty, staff, and students to discuss the Charter legislation. More such meetings will held over the course of the semester. He then commented on the legislation and various groups who support and oppose it, as well as other legislation affecting the University that might come before the General Assembly at this Session.

The President discussed a recent racial incident in which a fourth year student, a resident of the Lawn, found a racial epithet written on her car. He described the University’s response to the incident and how matters of this sort should and will be handled in the future. He emphasized that intolerance has no place in the University and that if incidents of this sort occur again, the University will respond quickly and firmly.
