President Darden stated that he had recently had a long talk with Mr. Buford Scott, who
felt that the alumni should direct the drive for funds. Mr. Gay stated that all large universities
had established a department of publicity and development as an integral part of the administration,
and he felt that it would be a mistake to organize such an office as a part of the Alumni Association.
Action on the recommendations of the Committee was deferred until the June meeting, pending
a discussion of the proposal with the Alumni Board of Managers.
