FACULTY SALARIES
In response to an inquiry from Mrs. Smith regarding the falling ratio of faculty salaries
versus national income, President Darden said that the problem was constantly on his mind and the
most urgent need of the University. A further increase in fees, the President said, appeared to
offer the only prospect of improvement, and he intended to discuss with the Governor a plan to
increase fees and to superimpose upon the salary structure additional pay for the proposed
"distinguished" professorships.
