tuition charges from students at the beginning of registration for the second semester of the academic
year. A proposal had been prepared which would prevent these difficulties in the future
Accordingly, the President proposed and the Board adopted the following resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia that
the resolution adopted by the Board at its meeting on 14 October 1961 (Minute Book, University of

No. 12, 14 October 1961, pp. 291-293) setting forth the University Regulations applying to


317

all students in the schools at Charlottesville be and it is hereby amended, effective 1 September
1962, as follows: (1) Under "Registration" strike out the second paragraph entitled "Delayed
Registration" and insert in lieu thereof the following: "Delayed Registration - Any student who
fails to present himself at the times specified, for his first registration in any academic session,
will not be permitted to matriculate unless he can explain his delay to the satisfaction of the Dean
of his School. If admitted after explanation, the student will be charged a delayed registration
fee of fifteen dollars, ten dollars of which may be waived by the Dean of the School for proper
cause", and (2) Under "Registration" insert a new paragraph following the paragraph entitled
"Delayed Registration" to read as follows: "Second Semester Registration - Immediately following
the final date for payment of second semester tuition, the Registrar will send a letter to the
appropriate Dean, listing the names of the students in his School who were registered in the first
semester but who have not completed their registration by payment of fees, and, therefore, will not
be permitted to attend classes. A copy of this letter will be sent to each student and to his
parents. If after ten days from the date of this letter, a student has not completed his second
semester registration, he will not be permitted to do so.

"The only appeal from failure to complete second semester registration by the above deadline
will be by the submission of a written petition for re-admission to the Registrar. This petition
will be considered by a committee made up of the Registrar, Bursar, and one other member of the
administrative staff of the University designated by the President. In addition, the student will
be required to appear in person before this committee. If re-admitted, a charge of twenty-five
dollars will be assessed each student re-admitted."
