LAW SCHOOL CONCESSION

Messrs. Archibald A. Campbell, John Izard, Jr., and Gerard R. Moran, the Concession Committee
of the Law School Student Advisory Council, appeared before the Board for discussion of this matter.

Mr. Campbell, as spokesman for the group, stated that the extra-curricular activities of the Law
School involved a considerable expenditure of money which, up to the present, had been met by the
Dean's Contingent Fund. Unfortunately this fund is not now adequate to meet their needs and they
feel that if they could take over the concession operating in the Law School, they could realize
an annual operating profit of $2,500 which would greatly assist the various activities of the Law
School.

After these gentlemen left there was a discussion of the matter and the Committee on
Athletics was asked to secure information from the Alumni Association concerning the income and
expenses of all of its concessions at the University. It was the sense of the Board that if the
Law School concession were turned over to the students of the Law School, similar requests would
come from other departments, possibly endangering the program of the Alumni Association which is
now supported from this source. The President was requested to investigate the possibility of
assisting the various student activities at the Law School from other funds.
