GIFT BY MRS. ALBERT J. BOWLEY

The President reported that a gift of 200 shares of du Pont stock and $1,000 in cash had been
made to Mary Washington College for the purpose of establishing two scholarships. He stated that
he and Chancellor Simpson had written letters of appreciation to Mrs. Bowley but he also believed
that a resolution by the Board concerning this gift would be in order. Accordingly, the President
proposed and the Board adopted the following resolution

WHEREAS Mrs. Albert J. Bowley has made a gift to Mary Washington College of 200 shares of
du Pont stock and $1,000 in cash for the support of two scholarships,

AND WHEREAS these scholarships will be most useful to the College by enabling it to provide
additional financial assistance to worthy students,

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the
University of Virginia that we hereby express our grateful thanks to Mrs. Bowley for her generous
gift and as a mark of our deep appreciation direct the Secretary on our behalf to send a copy of
this resolution to Mrs. Bowley
