EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DEPUTIZED TO ACT FOR BOARD

The Rector pointed out that the urgent matter of the choice of a permanent
site for the Northern Virginia College would require the full time of the Board at
today's meeting. In addition to that matter, he intended to present only a
resolution from the Faculty of the Clinch Valley College, but would ask the
President to present the matter of the bids for the new Hospital construction. He
recommended that all other items on today's agenda, as laid before the Board in the
President's docket, be referred to the Executive Committee for study and action in
detail.

The Board accordingly resolved that the Executive Committee be authorized,
pursuant to Section 23-75 Code of Virginia, to act in the name of the Board of
Visitors on all matters in today's docket not otherwise disposed of by the full
Board, and to act with the same authority upon any matters which the President
might see fit to refer to the Committee between today's date and the meeting of the
Board scheduled to be held in Fredericksburg on 12 April 1958.

The Secretary was instructed to record all actions of the Executive Committee
under this resolution as actions of the Board in the minutes of today's meeting or
of the April 12th meeting, as might be appropriate. A signed statement detailing
the Committee's decisions was subsequently filed with the Secretary's notes on
today's meeting, whereby the Executive Committee approved on behalf of the Board
the following matters under the headings "Gifts and Grants", "Elections",
"Cancellation of Election", "Appointment", "Leave of Absence", "Resignation",
"Military Property Custodian", and "Clinch Valley College Fees", and the
resolutions, respectively, pertaining thereto.
