ESTABLISHMENT OF POSITIONS OF RESEARCH PROFESSOR AND RESEARCH ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR
The President presented a proposal for the establishment of the faculty positions of Research
Professor and Research Associate Professor. The proposal is based on a recommendation in a
report dated 29 March 1963 by a special committee appointed by the President to consider the matter.
This committee was composed of Acting Dean Rowland A. Egger, Chairman, and Acting Dean Kenneth R.
Crispell, Dean Frank L. Hereford, Dean Lawrence R. Quarles, and Mr. Vincent Shea. The report proposed
that the positions would be concerned almost exclusively with programmed research and any
teaching duties would be restricted to the guidance of graduate students whose research is directly
related to the research of the Research Professor or Research Associate Professor.
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,
effective 1 September 1963, the positions of Research Professor and Research Associate Professor be
and they are hereby created as faculty positions at the University, the duties of which are to be
prescribed by the President.
