REPORT ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A COUNCIL OF VISITORS

Mr. Robert P. Buford reported that he had, on request of the Rector, attended a meeting of representatives of seven or eight Boards of Visitors in the State to discuss the formation of a Council of Visitors for the State. It was proposed that the Rector, Assistant Rector, or a designated Board member from each of the institutions of higher education in the State form a body to be known as the Council of Visitors.

The Council would establish a forum for communications between the members of the Boards of Visitors of the several institutions and friends of higher education to facilitate the sharing of experiences and the development of mutual policy where indicated, and to serve in a consultative capacity to the Council of Presidents, and certain other functions.

The Board determined that it should be represented. The Rector, the President, and Mr. Buford will attend the organizational meeting on April 14, 1976.
