SALARIES OF MEDICAL FACULTY

Action on this matter was further deferred until the next meeting of the Board. The following
resolution was adopted.

RESOLVED that it is the sense of the Board that the fee system as presently applied in the
Medical School is inimical to the welfare of the University and should be abolished, and that one of the
following methods be substituted:

1. Putting all medical faculty on a fair and equitable salary basis, some salaries to be decreased
and some increased; no fees to be paid any member of the faculty.

OR

2. Retaining doctors as faculty members paid a reasonable salary for rendering such instruction
in the Medical School as agreed upon, and permitting them to engage in the private practice of medicine
independent of the Medical School.
