MARY WASHINGTON COLLEGE MATTERS

GROUP ACCIDENT INSURANCE

The policy of the College in recent years in carrying a group insurance plan to cover
expenses of students involved in motor accidents was discussed by the Chancellor, who read
to the Board a letter on the subject, written to President Combs on May 7th by Mr. Peter
Roughton of the North America Assurance Society

The Board resolved that as a general policy the Bursar of Mary Washington College should
obtain bids from companies wishing to submit them before entering into a contract for insurance.

ADOPTION OF BUDGET

Mr. Howard, Chairman of the Committee on Mary Washington College, presented the College Budget,
and laid before the Board copies of a letter addressed to the Chancellor on April 23rd, by the
Bursar, Mr. Woodward, explaining certain budget items that had been questioned in Mr. Gravatt's
letter of April 12th.

On behalf of the Committee, Mr. Howard recommended adoption of the Budget, subject to the
following amendments.
