PRELIMINARY MEETING ON 13 OCTOBER 1961

The President asked for comments on the preliminary meeting of the Board held the preceding
day on 13 October 1961, which was devoted to a review of the work of the College of Arts and
Sciences. There was a unanimous reaction of approval of the meeting and of the plan to hold
similar meetings in the future. The consensus was that the planning of future meetings should
be left in the hands of the President and that these meetings should allow more time for a
question-and-answer period among members of the Board and the faculty.
