B. Faculty and Staff

On June 11, 1973, in an attachment to Governor Holton's response to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, statements from each state-supported institution of higher education were provided outlining affirmative actions taken or proposed to be taken by the institutions, In addition, a commitment was mode to secure boards of visitors' approval of the Governor's Executive Order No. 29 for use with college faculty members; That commitment has been fulfilled, and on November 5, Governor Holton submitted extensive data to the Office of Civil Rights with reference to faculty affirmative action plans.

Executive Order No. 29 required boards of visitors' approval in order that it would become applicable to college faculties, because college Faculties are exempt from the State's standard personnel policies and procedures. All non- college personnel are subject to the State's personnel *policies and procedures and have been covered by the provisions of Executive Order No. 29 since its issuance by Governor Holton.

Governor Godwin, on January 14, reaffirmed his commitment to equal employment opportunities and issued an Executive Order on February 6, 1974, supplanting and strengthening the provisions of Executive Order No. 29 issued by Governor Holton. On February 7, 1974, Governor Godwin requested the boards of Visitors to approve and implement Executive Order No. 1 for application to faculty members of state-supported institutions. Final approval of the boards of visitors will be reported to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare by July 1, 1974.
