NEW SITE FOR PATRICK HENRY COLLEGE

The Rector reported that he had been informed by the State Director of the Budget that special
action might be taken by the Governor to release planning money for the preparation of a site plan
in advance of acquiring title to the land for the new site for Patrick Henry College at Martinsville,
on which an option is now held. The regular rule is that planning money will not be
released by the Governor unless full title to the land has been acquired. If this special action
were approved, the building to be constructed would be expedited by at least one year.

The following resolution was adopted:

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that the President be and he is hereby authorized to inform the Governor that the Board is
desirous of obtaining planning money for the preparation of a site plan for Patrick Henry College
at Martinsville in advance of acquiring the land for the new site on which an option is now held.
