PORTRAIT OF MORGAN L. COMBS

The President requested permission to accept from a group of anonymous donors a portrait
of the late Dr. Morgan L. Combs, former President of the College, painted by Mr. David Silvette
of Richmond. The plan, Mr. Shannon stated, is to hang the portrait in the science building named
for Dr. Combs, and this will be subject to future approval by the Virginia Art Commission after
the Board has acted. The Board thereupon adopted, subject to the reservation noted, the following
resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that the portrait of Dr. Morgan L. Combs, former President of Mary Washington College, donated
to the College, be and it is hereby accepted
