submitted.
5. Approval of Transfer of Funds
Chancellor Humphrey presented the following transfer of
funds with his recommendation for approval:
#511 $4681.72 from Contingency Reserve, Instruction,

cellor's Office and purchase of furniture for the
Office of Administrative Vice President.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried
without dissent that the fund transfer be approved as
recommended.
6. Fee Waivers (or Scholarships) for Widows of Military
Personnel
Chancellor Humphrey submitted a proposal from President
Miller which would provide fee waivers or scholarships
for widows of military personnel and requested President
Miller to present the details for consideration by the
Board.
President Miller outlined the proposal which would provide
either a fee waiver or scholarship for each semester that
Nevada resident widows of military personnel attend the
University for a maximum of 36 months of full-time attend-
ance. The benefit would remain effective up to 36 months
as long as the widow does not remarry and may be claimed
at any time during a period of 8 years from the decedent's
date of death.
President Miller stated that there were no scholarship
funds available for this purpose at present but antici-
pated that such funds may become available in the future.
Mr. Grant suggested that this fee waiver provision be
extended to both Campuses. It was noted that this
proposal had originated on the University of Nevada Campus
and had not been referred to the NSU faculty. Chancellor
Humphrey suggested that NSU's faculty be given the op-
portunity to consider this policy.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Dr. White, carried with-
out dissent that fee waivers, or scholarships if such
funds become available, be provided for widows of military
personnel for a maximum of 36 months of full-time attend-
ance, without reference to number of hours, with this fee
waiver to be applicable to both Campuses if subsequently
approved by the NSU faculty.
7. Report of Investment Advisory Committee Meeting of
May 11, 1968
Dr. Lombardi presented the minutes of the Investment
Advisory Committee meeting of May 11, 1968, as follows:
The Committee met at 12:00 noon in the Hardy Room, Jot
Travis Student Union. Present were: Public member Mr.
Julius Bergen; Board members Louis E. Lombardi, M. D.,
Procter R. Hug, Jr., Mrs. Molly Knudtsen, Mr. Paul
Mc Dermott and Mr. Thomas G. Bell. Representing First
National Bank of Nevada were Mr. R. O. Kwapil, Vice
President and Senior Trust Officer and Mr. Walter D.
Bradley, Trust Officer. Also present was Chancellor Neil
D. Humphrey.
The Committee reviewed the report dated May 7, 1968 to the
Committee which included a review of the investment port-
folio as of May 1, 1968. Mr. Bradley commented that in
his opinion the portfolio was in good shape as a result
of previously authorized and executed buys and sells.
The Committee reviewed the attached investment recommenda-
tions for the sale and purchases of certain bonds and
securities. They also read the attached memorandum dated
May 9, 1968 from Dr. Weems to Mr. Humphrey. Mr. Bergen
recommended against the proposed sale of Union Carbide
stock. It was moved by Mrs. Knudtsen, seconded by Mr.
Mc Dermott, that all purchases and sales be made as recom-
mended by First National Bank except that the Union Carbide
stock would not be sold and the difference would come from
the sale of Treasury Bills.
The Committee reviewed the Bank's statement on assets re-
ceived from the estate of Anna Lander Mc Donnell which
are to be added to the agency as of May 24, 1968. The Bank
has recommended the holding of all stocks except those of
the Pullman Corporation. Mr. Bergen recommended that the
Bank's recommendation be followed except that the Pullman
Corporation stocks also be held. The Committee agreed by
consensus to the recommendation of the Bank, as modified
by Mr. Bergen's suggestion and also agreed that the Bank
should proceed to buy odd lots to round out all holdings
of the Anna Lander Mc Donnell account before adding it
to the endowment fund agency. To accomplish this, the
following stocks have to be purchased: 140 shares of
Pittsburgh Plate Glass, 15 shares of Pullman Corporation,
4 shares of Sears Roebuck & Co., and 202 shares of Standard
Oil Co. of New Jersey.
Mr. Kwapil reported that the tentative agreement reached
by the Board of Directors of the Clay Peters Building
Corporation with the management of Joseph Magnin Corpora-
tion had not been consummated and the lease was not
executed and the store portion of the building is now
vacant. There will be no further distribution of income
from the Building Corporation nor salary for Directors
paid until such time as a lease has been executed and
earnings again start.
The meeting adjourned at 1:20 P.M.
Neil D. Humphrey
Secretary to the Committee
Chancellor Humphrey recommended confirmation of the
Committee's action.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, car-
ried without dissent that the action of the Investment
Advisory Committee be confirmed.
8. Proposal to Establish a Department of Counseling and
Guidance Personnel Services, College of Education, U. N.
President Miller presented a recommendation from the College
of Education that a Department of Counseling and Guidance
Personnel Services be established within the College of
Education. He noted that the creation of the new Depart-
ment will involve no additional staff or expenditure of
funds not already budgeted for the coming year through
the Department of Secondary Education.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the proposal.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Dr. White, carried
without dissent that a Department of Counseling and
Guidance Personnel Services be established within the
College of Education, U. N.
9. Small Schools Facilities Planning Center, U. N.
President Miller presented a proposal that the Small
Schools Facilities Planning Center be designated as the
College of Education Research and Planning Center. This
modification of title also involves an expansion of func-
tion of this Center. (A detailed proposal of the scope,
objectives and organization of the Planning Center is
filed with the permanent minutes.)
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the proposal,
effective July 1, 1968.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried without
dissent that the modification of title and expansion of
function of the Center be approved as requested and effec-
tive July 1, 1968, it be designated the College of Educa-
tion Research and Planning Center.
10. English A
Chancellor Humphrey reviewed the earlier action of the
Board approving a transfer of English A from General Uni-
versity Extension to the English Department of each Uni-
versity, effective July 1, 1968. At that time the Board
specified that the $54 registration fee for English A be
deposited in a special fund on each Campus and the teaching
and administrative costs paid from that fund. It further
specified that as of July 1, 1968, no charges would be made
against this fund except for this purpose and if a surplus
accumulates in the fund it will be expended only for the
improvement of instruction of English A on each Campus.
Chancellor Humphrey further noted that it was important
that each of the Universities have a working capital with
which to begin the English A Program on their Campuses in
the Fall and recommended that $2000 be transferred to each
of the Campuses from existing English A Fund (1-12-3011).
He also recommended that the remaining balance of $21,000
in the English A Fund be transferred to the Off-Campus
Programs for subsidy purposes.
In response to a suggestion from Mr. Grant that the English
A Fund remain intact, Chancellor Humphrey spoke of the need
for extra support in Off-Campus Programs, noting that this
area cannot be developed adequately as a completely self-
supporting operation because of the limited enrollment in
the less populated areas. He noted that many programs and
courses are important to these smaller areas and should be
subsidized to allow offering even when they do not "break
even" by registration. He also stated that he believed he
was following the Board's earlier instructions to find
non-appropriated money for this purpose.
There was discussion of earlier action by the Board in re-
moving the extra fee for English A beginning in the Fall
of 1969 and requesting the Legislature to fund the program.
There was an expression of concern that the surplus in
English A Fund might be better spent in upgrading English A
Programs. However, Chancellor Humphrey noted that suffi-
cient funds are available in the Estimative Budgets for the
English A Programs in 1968-69 academic year and that there
is insufficient money from non-appropriation sources to
provide subsidy for Off-Campus Programs.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried without
dissent that the transfers of funds be made as recommended
by the Chancellor; i. e., $2000 from English A (1-01-3011)
to each University and the remaining balance to the Off-
Campus Programs.
11. Resident Hall Damage Deposit, U. N.
President Miller presented a recommendation that, effective
with the Fall semester, 1968, a $10 residence hall damage
deposit be required at the University of Nevada. The state-
ment of policy governing such deposit is as follows:
(1) A $10 deposit will be paid upon registration. This
deposit will be held until the student's termination
of on-campus residence for the academic year or
Summer Session. The deposit will be used to defray
repair costs which arise from danages other than
normal wear and tear.
(2) Damage charges will be assessed as follows:
(a) Common Use Areas - Damage occurring in common
use areas such as main lounges, elevators, stair-
wells, hall offices, etc. will be charged pro
rata against all residents; i. e., damage repair
cost divided by the number of residents currently
residing in the hall.
(b) Specific Areas - Damage occurring in specific
areas such as floor corridors, floor lounges or
lobbies, bathrooms, etc. will be charged to
occupants of that floor only; i. e., damage
repair cost divided by residents currently
residing on that floor where damage occurred.
(3) The Office of Auxiliary Enterprises will maintain a
general journal of all expenses and charge assess-
ments. All accounts will be adjusted at the end of
each month. An exact accounting of any individual's
deposit balance will be available at any time.
(4) The unused balance of individual deposits will be
refunded upon termination of on-campus residence for
the academic year or Summer Session.
(5) Any damage that can be traced directly to an individ-
ual or individuals in the residence hall will be
charged separately from the $10 deposit fee.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the deposit and
the policy statement.
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
12. Communication from University of Nevada Faculty
Chancellor Humphrey presented, for information, a communi-
cation from the University of Nevada Faculty Senate, trans-
mitted through President Miller with a request that it be
presented to the Board of Regents. The communication con-
cerned the following motion passed by the University of
Nevada Undergraduate Council at its meeting on April 1,
1968:
The Undergraduate Council notes with appreciation
the action of the Board of Regents on April 13, 1968,
relative to the ROTC Program at the University of
Nevada. We wish to commend the Regents for adopting
a policy that substantially modified the requirements
for male students and moves toward a voluntary program.
We believe that is an important step in the right
direction and that it will do much to reduce the
controversy that has surrounded the ROTC Program in
recent years.
13. ROTC Option Detail Review
Chancellor Humphrey reviewed the action of the Board of
Regents at its April meeting in approving the principle 4
options under the ROTC Program with a request that specific
details for implementing the options be returned to the
Board when developed. President Miller then presented
outlines of the 4 options, noting that I and II are now
being pursued for possible implementation during the next
academic year, whereas, options III and IV have been
developed to the point, that they will be available by
the Fall semester. (Detail of the options filed in perma-
nent minutes.)
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried with-
out dissent that the options as presented by President
Miller be approved.
14. Progress Report on Administrative Reorganization
Chancellor Humphrey stated that final report from the Ad
Hoc Committee on Administrative Reorganization should be
ready at the July meeting. He noted that some recommenda-
tions have already been made by the Committee and it will
meet again during the month of June and hopefully a final
report can be prepared and the Committee can then be
discharged.
15. Candidates for Graduation
President Miller presented the following candidates for

Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the above listed students be approved
for graduation as of June 3, 1968 with the degrees as
listed.
16. Physical Examination for Student Teachers
Chancellor Humphrey requested that this matter be further
tabled until the July 13 meeting of the Board. President
Miller noted that lack of time between the May 11 Board
meeting, at which this matter was originally introduced
and tabled, and the date for mailing of the agenda for
the May 31 Board meeting had prevented the assembling of
necessary material.
Dr. Anderson suggested that a provision be made in the
policy statement that the student would be responsible
(and would pay for) his physical examination.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried with-
out dissent that the matter be further tabled.
17. Proposed Lease Agreement for Equipment for the Laboratory
of Atmospheric Physics, DRI
Chancellor Humphrey reported that the DRI has requested
authorization to lease, with an option to purchase, certain
weather instruments for use in the Elko Weather Modifica-
tion Project at an estimated cost of $8981.36. This agree-
ment covers the period from November 1967 through June 1968
and reflects a monthly rental rate of $1122.68.
Dr. Squires stated that the delay in processing this lease
agreement was caused by uncertainty in funding by the
Bureau of Reclamation and it was not until the middle of
January 1968 that information was received concerning the
FY 68 funds.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the lease
agreement as proposed.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried with-
out dissent that the proposed lease agreement for weather
instruments be approved as recommended.
18. Proposal for Change in Name of the Laboratory of Environ-
mental Patho-Physiology
Chancellor Humphrey presented a recommendation from Dr.
Squires that the Laboratory of Environmental Patho-
Physiology be designated as the "Health Sciences Research
Center" effective immediately. It was noted that Drs.
Smith and Licata had originally requested the change in
name to suggest a more multi-disciplinary approach which
would facilitate the acquisition of funding through re-
search grants.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried with-
out dissent that the Laboratory of Environmental Patho-
Physiology be designated as the "Health Sciences Research
Center", effective immediately.
19. Proposal for Optional Insurance Coverage for Faculty and
Staff
President Miller presented a recommendation from the Uni-
versity of Nevada Faculty Senate that an accidental death
and dismemberment policy be approved as optional insurance
coverage for faculty and staff. Details of a plan written
by Insurance Company of North America was submitted (filed
in permanent minutes).
Chancellor Humphrey noted that this is a 100% self-financed
plan which requires no University expenditure and he recom-
mended approval of the proposal.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that an accidental death and dismember-
ment policy be approved as optional insurance coverage for
faculty and staff.
20. Request for Easement, NSU
President Moyer presented a request for approval of the
granting of an easement to the Nevada Power Company to
provide for power service to the new Buildings and Grounds
Facility at Nevada Southern University.
Chancellor Humphrey noted that the easement has been
checked by the Plant Engineer at NSU and found to be
satisfactory. He recommended approval.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the easement be approved as recom-
mended.
21. Award of Bids
Mr. Pine reported that the following bids had been received
for air conditioning improvements in the Max C. Fleischmann
College of Agriculture building, U. N.
Nevada Sheet Metal $4677
Washoe Sheet Metal $4751
Advance Metal Products $6240
Riverside Sheet Metal $6828
Mr. Pine recommended the contract be awarded to Nevada Sheet
Metal in the amount of $4677 with the funds to come from
Federal sources.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the bid of Nevada Sheet Metal be
accepted and the contract drawn to accomplish the work.
22. Subsidy for Stead Auxiliary Enterprises, 1967-68
President Miller spoke of the operating deficit for Stead
Campus Auxiliary Enterprises for the current year totaling
in excess of $43,000. He noted that this deficit was
anticipated and recalled that it was discussed by the
Board of Regents a year ago at the time estimative budgets
were adopted. President Miller stated that although the
level of activity at Stead is increasing on a regular basis,
it has not yet reached a point where the auxiliary enter-
prises operation is fully self-supporting.
Chancellor Humphrey stated that the under-utilization of
the available dormitory and dining facilities, and the
assessment of these facilities for operation of the plant,
resulted in a deficit of $43,695.64 as of April 9, 1968.
This amount includes an opening deficit of $23,557.10
carried forward from FY 1966-67 and the total deficit as
of June 30, 1968 is expected to reach $50,000.
He recommended that in order to fund this deficit, the
following transfers be made to Stead Auxiliary Enterprises
Funds:
$33,552 from unappropriated surplus of University
Village (1-22-4001), U. N.; and
$16,448 from the Board of Regents Special Projects
Fund (1-51-4056).
Mr. Humphrey noted that major economies are being effected
in the operation of Buildings and Grounds at Stead and
have reduced the potential deficit for 1967-68 to a calcu-
lated "break even" operation in 1968-69. He said, however,
that Buildings and Grounds services to all areas of Stead
will be minimal and will undoubedly be found unsatisfactory
to many users, but there is no acceptable alternative
available at this time.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried
without dissent that the recommended transfers be approved
to fund the deficit in the Stead Auxiliary Enterprises
Fund.
23. Medical School Feasibility Estimative Budget
Chancellor Humphrey reported that an estimative budget for
1968-69 for the completion of the Medical School Feasibility
Study has been developed and reflects a total requested
authorized expenditure of $49,600, of which $9600 will be
provided by grants or contracts already received. Addi-
tional major grants for this purpose have not materialized.
He noted that the University is committed to the completion
of this study and its presentation to Governor Laxalt and
the 1969 Legislature. He recommended that in order to
provide the additional $40,000 required in subsidy of this
budget, the following transfers be made to the Medical
School Feasibility Study Fund:
$39,444 from (1-51-4056) Board of Regents Special
Projects Fund (which will deplete this fund for
1967-68); and
$556 from the Leslie and Alberta Farrington Gift Fund
(1-51-4090).
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the fund transfers be approved as
recommended.
24. Estimative Budgets for 1968-69
Chancellor Humphrey presented the estimative budgets for
1968-69. He noted that the 1968-69 recommended budgets
total $3,196,063 and reflect an increase of $332,976 over
the 1967-68 budgets. Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval of the budgets as submitted.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the estimative budgets be approved
as recommended.
25. Proposed Purchase of Airplane by Desert Research Institute
Dr. Squires presented a proposal which requested authoriza-
tion to purchase a B-26 airplane to be used for cloud seed-
ing purposes. He explained that the aircraft presently
being used by DRI, a Beech C-45, could not perform safely
in storm and icing conditions. He noted that a search has
been underway for some time to find a suitable aircraft
and finally a B-26 had been located in Denver and tentative
negotiations have begun. Authorization has been received
from the Fleischmann Foundation to use up to $75,000 from
the Fleischmann Equipment Grant for such a purchase and
he requested approval from the Board for the expenditure
of these funds.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the Desert Research Institute be
authorized to spend up to $75,000 from the Fleischmann
Equipment Grant for the purchase of the B-26 airplane
for cloud seeding purposes.
26. Demolition of Artemisia Hall, U. N.
Mr. Pine reported that Artemisia Hall, formerly used as
a residence hall, has been vacant since Spring, 1967. He
noted that the vacancy of this building presents a fire
danger and invites vandalism. It cannot, he said, be
used with adequate safety for student housing nor can
it be rehabilitated economically for other purposes. Now
that adequate student housing is available, without using
Artemisia Hall, he recommended that bids be invited for
the demolition of Artemisia and the land space leveled
and landscaped.
President Miller concurred and Chancellor Humphrey recom-
mended approval of the proposal.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
without dissent that the project be authorized and the bids
solicited for demolition.
27. Lease of Theater Building, Stead Campus
Mr. Pine reported that a proposed lease has been negotiated
with Mr. Howard S. Robb for a one year lease of the Theater
building at Stead at $150 per month or 6% gross sales (ad-
mission and concessions), whichever is greater. He noted
that the terms of the lease will protect the University's
use of the facility for special programs.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the lease be approved,
subject to the approval by the U. S. General Services
Administration.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the lease be approved as recommended.

32. Requirement for Student Teachers
President Miller requested approval of a proposal by the
College of Education Selection and Retention Committee and
from Dean Cain that:
The completion of a placement folder with the
Placement Officer of the University of Nevada be
a required part of the student teaching course
requirement. The fee for this service is $3.
President Miller noted that this request has been under
consideration for some time and would make possible the
assembling and storing of a complete file for potential
employers to see with respect to a teacher trained at
the University of Nevada. It would, he said, prevent
the situation that sometimes occurs when a student, many
years after graduating, seeks a teaching position and
seeks recommendations from Professors on the Campus who
may only dimly remember the student's performance and
could not, therefore, write adequate evaluations of the
student for a prospective employer.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott,
carried without dissent that all students enrolled in
student teaching at the University of Nevada be required
to complete a placement file, and that an appropriate
statement be included in the General Catalog to inform
the students of this requirement.
33. Requirement for Bachelor of Science, Electrical Engineering
President Miller requested approval of a proposal by the
College of Engineering that students receiving the Bachelor
of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering be required to
take the Engineer-in-Training examination. He noted that
the fee for this examination which is administered by the
State Board of Registered and Professional Engineers is
$10. The proposal would require that this examination be
taken in their 4th year at the University.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried with-
out dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
34. Permission to File with BLM for Land Purchase
Chancellor Humphrey presented a request that Dean Bohmont,
College of Agriculture, be authorized to file application
for purchase of 10 acres of land from the Department of
Interior, Bureau of Land Management. He noted that this
land is adjacent to the 40 acres recently donated to the
University of Nevada, Agricultural Experiment Station, by
Mr. Telford Work for the Central Nevada Field Laboratory.
This land is currently under lease from the BLM as a
headquarters, residential and experimental site. Annual
lease payments are $12.50 per year. Total acquisition
cost under the Recreation and Public Purposes Act if ap-
proved will be $25.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that Dr. Dale W. Bohmont, Dean and
Director of the College of Agriculture, be authorized
to file an application for purchase of 10 acres of land
from the Department of Interior, Bureau of Land Manage-
ment; this land located in Lander County and described
as Section 25, T18NR41E.
35. Resolution Approving Loan Agreement
Chancellor Humphrey recommended adoption by the Board of
the following resolution which would authorize him to
execute on behalf of the University of Nevada System the
Loan Agreement, when offered, under Title III of the
Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963 to assist in the
construction of a Physical Sciences building on the
University of Nevada Campus. He noted that this loan
had been approved and will be forthcoming soon. It
must be returned prior to the next Board meeting.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the following resolution be adopted:

sioner of Education by the University of Nevada (here-

36. Increase in ASUN Fees
President Miller presented a request from the ASUN officers
and the ASUN Finance Control Board that a $2.50 increase in
ASUN fees be approved, effective Fall semester 1968. This
increase would bring the ASUN Fee to $20 and would provide
the necessary funds to upgrade social and entertainment
projects for students and permit them to attend without
paying separate special admission charges. At his invita-
tion Joe Bell, ASUN President, and Ted Dixon, ASUN First
Vice President, spoke in support of the fee increase.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the fee increase be approved as re-
quested.
37. Expenses for NSU President Selection Committee
Chancellor Humphrey presented a budget request from the NSU
Presidential Selection Committee to handle the recruiting
expenses:
Applicants' travel and per diem $2,500
Telephone 175
Host fund 500
Car pool mileage 50
Supplies 25
$3,250
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the budget be approved
and that $2750 be made available within the 1968-69 work
program of the Office of the President, NSU, from antici-
pated salary savings of unfilled administrative positions
and that a host fund for the Committee of not to exceed
$500 be made available by transfer from the Leslie and
Alberta Farrington Gift Fund (1-51-4090).
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
38. Chancellor's Report
Chancellor Humphrey distributed to the Regents a letter
from Mr. Nicholas Smith, Vice President of Burrows, Smith
and Co., fiscal advisors to the University for revenue
bond issues, in which he noted that the bond market,
especially for College bonds, had deteriorated quite
rapidly following the sale of revenue bonds for the
Chemistry building, Nevada Southern University. Mr.
Smith stated in his letter that the University was most
fortunate to have sold the bonds and added, that, in
his opinion, the bond market would continue to worsen due
to the demonstrations by students and faculties at various
Campuses across the country.
Mr. Grant said that the students at the University of
Nevada and Nevada Southern University should be commended
for their responsible behavior, and added that the Uni-
versity of Nevada System was most fortunate to have the
level of student body and student government it had on
both its Campuses. He said, however, that it might be
worthwhile to send copies of Mr. Smith's letter to each
Student Body President so that they might be aware of some
of the difficulties with which the Regents are faced in
financing the necessary physical plant for the two Campuses.
39. Location of the Library and Office Building of the National
College and State Trial Judges
Chancellor Humphrey recalled that the Fleischmann Founda-
tion had approved a grant of $750,000 to the National
College of State Trial Judges for the construction of a
library and office building.
Present Milller presented a map of the U. N. Campus show-
ing a site south of the U. S. Bureau of Mines building
which he recommended as the location of the building.
He noted that this site was also the choice of Dean Hyde.
Chancellor Humphrey concurred and requested approval by
the Board.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried with-
out dissent that the location be approved as recommended
for the construction of the National College of State Trial
Judges.
The meeting adjourned at 4:30 P.M.
