MCINTIRE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

The President pointed out that the McIntire School of Business Administration was under
the same chairmanship as the James Wilson School of Economics, and stated that there was considerable
friction between the faculties of the two schools as to the type of training that should be
offered.

The President stated that he believed two steps were necessary to correct the difficulties:
(1) to separate the schools and appoint a chairman of the McIntire School of Business Administration;
and (2) at a later date, if funds were secured for a graduate school of business
administration, then to establish a separate professional department in the University to offer
training at both the graduate and undergraduate level in business administration.
