UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA
BOARD OF REGENTS
May 30, 1964
The Board of Regents met in the President's Office, Clark Ad-
ministration building, Reno Campus, on Saturday, May 30, 1964.
Present: Regents Anderson, Davis, Germain, Grant, Hug, Jacobsen,
Lombardi, Magee, White; Business Manager Humphrey, Engineer
Rogers, Vice President Young. Mr. Walsh, Deputy Attorney Gen-
eral, was present as Legal Adviser. Members of the Press were
Mr. Dromiack, Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Glendon. President Armstrong
was also present.
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Grant at 9:10 A.M.
1. Minutes of Previous Meeting
Upon motion by Mrs. Magee, seconded by Mr. Hug and unai-
mous vote, the minutes of the meeting of April 25, 1964
were approved with correction of a typographical error.
2. Approval of Check Registers
President Armstrong recommended that the Check Registers,
as submitted by Mr. Humphrey, be approved.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously by roll call vote, that the Check Registers
be approved.
3. Foreign Student Program
Mr. Floyd Edsall, Chairman of the Faculty Subcommittee on
Foreign Students, and Mr. Ben Echeverria, Foreign Student
Adviser, were present to discuss the program with the
Regents. A prepared progress report of the Foreign Student
Program had been prepared and submitted to the Regents for
their information, including the following Summary and
Suggestions:
The Foreign Student Program should continue to grow at
a good rate. The establishment of an international
house on or near Campus would aid the program greatly.
The foreign students need to be more closely assimilat-
ed into the Campus student body.
The recommendations of the Foreign Student Committee
in the establishment of special English courses for
foreign students should be implemented when feasible.
The insurance program could be implemented through
University action in negotiating a "dove-tailed" policy
to fit in with the present accident coverage and health
services offered by the University.
The operation of the Office of Foreign Student Adviser
could be improved if monies were available for attend-
ance at regional and national conferences of the Na-
tional Association of Foreign Student Affairs.
In the general discussion which followed, it was thought
desirable for more Nevada students to attend foreign Uni-
versities than at the present time. Mr. Edsall offered to
actively seek a program, either for the University of Nevada
by itself or in cooperation with another Institution or
agency, if it is so desired by the Administration. He
called attention to the fact that such program would re-
quire some financial support. The point was made, also,
that in any program, whether cooperative or not, provision
should be made for proper supervision of curriculum. Dr.
Anderson reported informally on information he had received
from the Institute of International Education and other
agencies -- that there are probably about 7500 American
students overseas in full credit degree programs.
Dr. Anderson suggested that the Regents would like to know
about how many students would be interested in education
abroad if an exchange program were to be instituted. At
the present time, information concerning overseas oppor-
tunities is forwarded by Mr. Echeverria to Department
Chairmen, and no record is kept of students who apply.
The Regents favored more travel money for the Foreign Stu-
dent Adviser, at least enough for him to attend national
meetings, and favored also the establishment of courses
in English for foreign students. President Armstrong
explained, as regards travel, that the Office of Student
Affairs receives its allocation for out-of-state travel,
the same as all offices and divisions of the University.
The Dean then decides how the money shall be spent. In
this instance, Dean Basta will be informed of the attitude
of the Regents.
Mr. Grant asked the Administration on behalf of the Regents
for specific recommendations on the program, including costs
and sources of financial help.
4. Building Committee Meeting of May 8, 1964
Dr. Anderson read and discussed the minutes of the meeting
as follows:
Present: Dr. Anderson (Chairman), Mr. Hug, Mr. Jacobsen,
Dr. Lombardi, Mrs. Magee, President Armstrong, Vice Presi-
dent Young, Business Manager Humphrey, University Engineer
Rogers, Mr. Cahlan, Mr. Kelly, Mr. Erskine.
(1) Valley Road Farm - Reno
Mr. Cahlan and Mr. Kelly reviewed the proposal of
Alexander and Associates to lease the Valley Road
Farm property of the University. Mr. Cahlan in
particular discussed his contacts with the heirs of
Enoch Morrill, who originally owned the property.
It was pointed out that the Attorney General's opinion
indicated that action of the Legislature would be
necessary in order to obtain a clear title to the
land. Also, because of the wording in the title, it
would appear that any income from the lease of the
land might have to go to the benefit of the Experiment
Station. Mr. Cahlan indicated that Alexander and Asso-
ciates would require an answer by July 31, 1964. Mr.
Cahlan indicated that the decision of the Regents on
this matter should be communicated to Mr. Lynn C.
Alexander, with a copy to Mr. Cahlan.
After Mr. Cahlan and Mr. Kelly left, the Committee
discussed the matter further. It was pointed out
that this land might be needed for future development
of the University.
Action: Mr. Jacobsen moved, Mr. Hug seconded, that
the Building Committee recommend to the Board of
Regents that the proposal of Alexander and Associates
not be considered further in view of the current needs
of the Experiment Station and the long-range land
needs of the University. Motion passed unanimously
by the members of the Committee (and all other Regents
present).
(2) University Planning Board Relations
Mr. Erskine appeared before the Committee to present
some ideas which he believed might improve working
relations between the University Engineer's Office
and the State Planning Board staff concerning Univer-
sity construction projects. Mr. Erskine presented his
proposal as follows:
A. On the basis of our experience with some $50 mil-
lion worth of construction, we feel that the final
inspection procedure on the University buildings
could be improved and simplified as follows:
a. Make the final inspection with a team consist-
ing of representatives of the University Engi-
neer's Office, the Planning Board, the Archi-
tect's Office, the General Contractor and his
subcontractors.
b. Issue, as a result of his joint inspection at
which all men listed above are continuously
present, a list of items to be corrected.
c. When this list is executed to the satisfaction
of the University Engineer's Office, occupy
the building and make final payment after the
lien period.
B. Since callbacks are costly for representatives of
the Architect's Office, the Contractor and his
subcontractors, the University should limit re-
quests for corrective action during the one-year
guarantee period to emergency items only.
C. Two months prior to the end of the one-year guar-
antee period on the building, hold a guarantee
inspection with the Planning Board, University
Engineer, Architect, Contractor and subcontractors
present. Present to the Contractor, at the end
of that guarantee inspection, a list of items to
be picked up, including necessary rebalancing of
air handling systems, a recheck of the functions
of all controls and motors, any items missed on
the first inspection as specified but uncompleted,
etc. At the same time this inspection team should
make recommendations on maintenance, based on their
observations of the condition of the building and
its equipment ten months after occupancy.
D. Most architects feel that they can do their best
work for a client if they have, in addition to
their normal function as the building designer,
some control over the selection of the furnish-
ings and the treatment of the exterior site de-
velopment, if such site development is not a part
of their contract.
FERRIS & ERSKINE, Architects
After Mr. Erskine left, the committee discussed the
matter further.
(3) State Historical Society
President Armstrong reported that the Nevada State
Historical Society must find a new home, and he sug-
gested that the University offer a location for the
Society's building so that it would be on, or close
to, the Campus. This could be on the basis of (a
long term) $1 a year lease. It was also suggested
that the University join with the Society to seek
funds from the Fleischmann Foundation. The Committee
agreed that President Armstrong should communicate
to officials of the Society the University's interest
in offering land for this purpose.
(4) Addition to Fish and Game Building
Mr. Rogers presented plans submitted by the Nevada
Fish and Game Commission for the addition of a propos-
ed shop building to the Commission's facilities on the
Valley Road Farm property. The Committee directed Mr.
Rogers to obtain more information on the proposed proj-
ect before it considered approval.
(5) Proposed Rezoning - Las Vegas
Mr. Rogers reported that a request has been made to
rezone from R-1 to R-4 classification some land on
Maryland Parkway across from the Nevada Southern
Campus.
Action: Mr. Jacobsen moved, Dr. Lombardi seconded,
that the Committee go on record as opposing any change
of the zoning. Motion passed unanimously.
(6) Proposed Street Dedication - Las Vegas
Mr. Rogers recommended that the University dedicate
land for a street along the westerly edge of the Nevada
Southern Campus. This needs to be done so that a water
line can be installed.
Action: Dr. Lombardi moved, Mr. Jacobsen seconded,
that the Committee recommend Board of Regents' approval
of the dedication of 40 feet of land along the westerly
edge of the Nevada Southern Campus to provide for a
street. Motion passed unanimously.
(7) Church Land - Las Vegas
The Committee authorized Mr. Rogers to speak to the
Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church to determine if
the Church would be willing to exchange its land in
the area of the Nevada Southern Campus for another
place of land west of the Church of the Latter Day
Saints of Jesus Christ land.
Kenneth E. Young
Acting Secretary
Dr. Anderson discussed the action of the Building Committee
regarding the Valley Road Farm, and noted that the Building
Committee had again considered the matter at its next meet-
ing.
Mr. Rogers spoke regarding Item #6, Proposed Street Dedica-
tion - Las Vegas, and indicated by use of a map the area
involved.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried unani-
mously that the land be dedicated, as per recommendation
of the Building Committee.
5. Building Committee Meeting of May 29, 1964
President Armstrong read the minutes of the meeting as fol-
lows:
Present: Dr. Anderson (Chairman), Mr. Germain, Mr. Hug,
Mr. Jacobsen, Mr. Grant, Dr. Lombardi, Mrs. Magee, Dr.
White; President Armstrong, Vice President Young, Busi-
ness Manager Humphrey, University Engineer Rogers; Mr.
Hancock.
(1) Valley Road Farm - Reno
Mr. Germain expressed himself as being opposed to the
recommendation made at the May 18 meeting of the
Building Committee opposing the possible leasing of
the Valley Road Farm Experiment Station to Lynn Alex-
ander and Associates for development as a shopping
center. Other members of the Committee reiterated the
reasons for taking this position. No further action
was taken.
(2) Maryland Parkway - Las Vegas
Mr. Rogers reported that the University has been asked
to dedicate 50 feet of land across the front of the
Nevada Southern Campus for the improvement of Maryland
Parkway.
Motion: Dr. Lombardi moved, Mr. Jacobsen seconded,
that the Committee recommend Board approval of the
dedication of 50 feet across the front of the Nevada
Southern Campus for the improvement of Maryland Park-
way. Motion passed unanimously.
(3) New Water Line - Las Vegas
Mr. Rogers reported that the University must dedicate
an 80-foot wide strip of land for a street at the cen-
ter of section north and south of the Nevada Southern
Campus to provide the necessary right-of-way for a new
water line.
Motion: Dr. Lombardi moved, Mr. Jacobsen seconded,
that the Committee recommend Board approval of the
dedication of an 80-foot strip of land along the
center of section north and south from east-west
center of section to Flamingo Road, Nevada Southern
Campus, for a street and right-of-way for a new water
line. Motion passed unanimously.
(4) Physical Sciences Building - Reno
Mr. Rogers distributed copies of letters from Mr.
Hancock, Secretary-Manager of the State Planning Board,
informing the University that the State Planning Board
believes that a new contract must be negotiated with
Lockard and Casazza for the development of plans for
the Physical Sciences building on the Reno Campus. Mr.
Hancock pointed out that there would be no difference
in eventual costs if the architects developed only
preliminary plans rather than complete plans prior to
the next session of the Legislature. However, there
would be a delay of approximately five months in
starting the project. Mr. Rogers urged that the arch-
itects be allowed to proceed with the development of
complete plans and specifications.
Mr. Jacobsen was elected temporary Chairman when Dr. Anderson was
called from the room.
Motion: Dr. Lombardi moved, Mr. Germain seconded, that
the Committee recommend that the Board go on record as
requesting the prompt development of complete plans and
specifications for the Physical Sciences building on
the Reno Campus. Motion passed unanimously.
(5) Land Use Change - Las Vegas
Dr. Armstrong distributed copies of a letter from Mr.
Portenier relative to the zoning of Lot 57 on Mary-
land Parkway adjacent to the Nevada Southern Campus.
This matter was voted on at the May 8 meeting of the
Building Committee.
Motion: Mr. Germain moved, Dr. Lombardi seconded,
that the Committee rescind its action at the May 8
meeting opposing the proposed change from R-1 to R-4
zoning of Lot 57 on Maryland Parkway. Motion passed
with one "no" vote.
Motion: Mr. Germain moved, Dr. Lombardi seconded,
that Mr. Rogers be instructed to transmit this in-
formation to the Clark County Planning Commission.
Motion passed unanimously.
(6) Church Property - Las Vegas
Mr. Hancock reported that he and Mr. Rogers met with
Bishop Dwyer last week relative to the Roman Catholic
Church property in the area of the Nevada Southern
Campus. Bishop Dwyer indicated that he would be
willing to consider a trade of the church property
for property across Maryland Parkway. It will be
up to the University to work up a possible three-way
trade, involving University property along Flamingo
Road and a possible location across Maryland Parkway.
No action was required by the Committee.
(7) Nevada Historical Society - Reno
Dr. Anderson and Mr. Rogers reported on the possibil-
ity of the University leasing land for a building to
be erected as the home of the Nevada Historical Soci-
ety, adjacent to the Reno Campus, at the northwest
corner of Center and 9th Streets. It was pointed out
that other property in the area of the proposed site
probably would have to be acquired in order to provide
enough land for the building and parking.
Motion: Mr. Hug moved, Mr. Jacobsen seconded, that
the Committee recommend to the Board that the Univer-
sity property located at 9th and Center Streets be
offered to the Nevada Historical Society on a long-
term lease at $1 a year and that the Board express
its hope that the Society will accept this offer.
Motion passed unanimously.
(8) Acquisition of Property - Reno
Dr. Armstrong distributed copies of a memorandum from
Dr. Young, Mr. Humphrey and Mr. Rogers, proposing a
plan for the acquisition of property adjacent to the
Reno Campus. Dr. Armstrong recommended approval, as
follows:
May 29, 1964
MEMORANDUM
TO: President Charles J. Armstrong
FROM: Neil D. Humphrey, Business Manager
Dr. Kenneth E. Young, Executive Vice President
James D. Rogers, University Engineer
RE: Acquisition of Selected Property within
Boundaries of Approved Master Plan.
This memorandum is written as a result of further
study of the subject. A memorandum of March 13, 1964
on the same subject to you developed proposed methods
of financing and outlined recommended procedures for
purchase of such property.
The Attorney General was requested by Mr. Humphrey's
letter of February 19, 1964 to respond to the follow-
ing questions:
1. Can the University of Nevada buy land without
specific legislative authorization?
2. If the answer to Question No. 1 is affirmative,
can the University of Nevada borrow money from
either a bank or interfund (i. e., from an un-
restricted fund with sufficient surplus) to
finance such purchase?
3. Again, if the answer to Question No. 1 is affirm-
ative, can the University of Nevada purchase
mortgaged property subject to the mortgage and
pay the mortgage from income produced by the
property?
The Attorney General in Opinion No. 124, dated April
14, 1964, responded to the questions as follows:
"It is, therefore, the opinion of this office,
that the University can buy land without specific
legislative authorization only if funds are used
which are acquired over and above legislative
appropriation, and only to the extent of such
surplus. The University, acting through its
Board of Regents, cannot borrow money from a bank
or financial institution without legislative
authorization. The University can purchase
mortgaged property only if funds other than those
appropriated by the Legislature are available,
and then only if the income from such mortgaged
property is sufficient to meet the mortage pay-
ments."
After additional consideration of the problem and of
the Attorney General's opinion, we recommend that the
University proceed to purchase property and that the
following procedures be approved by the Board of
Regents.
1. The area within which property is to be purchased
is defined as follows:
A. The area surrounding the new Dormitory area
(former cemetery) bounded by North Sierra,
Artemisia Way and College Drive.
B. The area immediately north of the new Dormi-
tory and bounded by North Virginia, College
Drive, Hillside Drive and 15th Street.
C. The area east of the Campus, bounded by Evans
Avenue from the intersection of Evans Avenue
and East 9th Street north to the University
property presently leased to the U. S. Navy.
2. Authority to purchase the defined property in the
name of the Board of Regents is delegated to the
Business Manager subject to the concurrence of the
University Engineer and the approval of the Presi-
dent. Authority to purchase is limited to paying
not more than the appraised value established by
the contract appraiser.
A. Property offered for sale shall be appraised
by a qualified real estate appraiser selected
by the Board of Regents who shall be on con-
tract. The terms of the contract shall be
negotiated by the Business Manager and subject
to approval of the President.
B. The Business Manager and the University Engi-
neer will also appraise any property offered
for sale before an offer is made. Every ef-
fort shall be made to secure the lowest pos-
sible price. The appraisals shall also include
an estimate of the monthly rental value of the
property.
C. A complete file of appraisals and other working
papers shall be kept on each parcel of property
considered.
3. A special fund for the purchase of property shall
be established in Fund Group 91, to be controlled
by the Business Manager, titled "Property Acquisi-
tion Fund". The following sums are transferred to
create the fund: (a) $25,000 from the Board of
Regents Special Projects Fund (1-51-4056); (b)
$10,000 from Alice Dimmitt Endowment Income (1-
51-7002); (c) $10,000 from Hayden Ellicott En-
dowment Income (1-51-7004); and (d) $5,000 from
W. E. Travis Grant (1-91-3006).
4. A separate sub-fund of the "Property Acquisition
Fund" shall be established for each parcel acquired
and all expenses connected with acquisition of the
property and direct charges for maintenance shall
be charged to the sub-fund and all income from rent
of the property shall be credited to the sub-fund.
5. Property may be purchased subject to a mortgage if
the estimated rental income from the property is
sufficient to meet the mortgage payments.
Motion: Dr. Lombardi moved, Mr. Jacobsen seconded,
that the Committee recommend Board approval of the
proposed land acquisition plan. Motion passed unani-
mously. The Committee authorized the Administration
to select an appraiser.
(9) Disposition of President's Residence - Reno
Dr. Armstrong recommended that the old President's
residence on Mt. Rose be put on the market and sold,
once the new President's residence on Lakeside Drive
is ready for occupancy. The President suggested that
this matter be handled without publicity. The Com-
mittee agreed that the Administration be authorized
to have the property appraised and take all other
steps prior to a possible sale.
(10) Encroachment Revocable Permit
Mr. Rogers presented a request that an Encroachment
Revocable Permit for Highway 395 access at the Stadium
parking lot, between the University and the Highway
Department, be executed.
Motion: Mr. Jacobsen moved, Dr. Lombardi seconded,
that the Committee recommend that the Board authorize
the Chairman to sign the necessary permit. Motion
passed unanimously.
Kenneth E. Young
Acting Secretary
Item #1, the Valley Road Farm matter, was discussed by
Dr. Armstrong.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried, with
the following vote, that the Regents approve the action of
the Building Committee: Mr. Germain passed his vote; all
other Regents voted "aye". Mr. Germain stated that, had
he been at the meeting of the Building Committee, he would
not have voted in favor of the action, and Mr. Jacobsen
reiterated his stand that the University might need the
land for its own use and therefore should retain possession
of it.
Item #2, Maryland Parkway, Las Vegas, was discussed by Mr.
Rogers.
Motion by Mr. Germain, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
unanimously that the recommendation of the Building Com-
mittee be approved.
Item #4, Physical Sciences Building, Reno, was discussed.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously to approve the recommendation of the Building
Committee, with the change in wording from "urging prompt
development" to "requesting the prompt development".
Item #5, Land Use Change - Las Vegas, was discussed by Mr.
Rogers, and the letter from Mr. Portenier, making the re-
quest, was read. President Armstrong recommended approval.
Motion by Mr. Germain, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried with
the following vote, to approve the actions of the Build-
ing Committee: Jacobsen - "no"; Germain, Grant, Hug,
Lombardi, White - "yes"; Anderson, Davis, Magee - not
voting.
Mr. Rogers discussed Item #7 - Nevada Historical Society,
Reno. President Armstrong recommended approval.
Motion by Mr. Germain, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
unanimously to approve the recommendation of the Building
Committee.
Referring to Item #8, Acquisition of Property - Reno, Dr.
Armstrong discussed the memorandum included in the Build-
ing Committee minutes, and recommended approval of the
recommendation of the Building Committee.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Anderson, carried
unanimously by roll call vote, that the Board approve the
land acquisition plan as recommended by the Building Com-
mittee and that this become the policy of the Board of
Regents, including authorization for the Administration to
select an appraiser.
Item #10, Encroachment Revocable Permit, was discussed by
Mr. Rogers, who said that such permit was necessary for
egress from and entering the parking area for the Stadium.
President Armstrong recommended approval.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried unani-
mously that the Chairman of the Board be authorized to
sign the necessary permit.
6. Progress Report, Building Program
Mr. Rogers presented the following report on the status of
the University design and construction projects under the
jurisdiction of the State Planning Board:
(1) Power Distribution, Clark Administration Building
The general contractor, Harker & Harker, is approxi-
mately 50% completed with the original work. Author-
ization to extend the power service to Stewart and
Morrill Halls is pending execution of change order.
(2) Physical Education Facilities, Phase I, Reno Campus
A contract in the amount of $181,932 has been awarded
to W. W. Wiechmann Construction Company for the earth-
work portion of this project. It is anticipated that
notice to proceed with the work will be given shortly
after the first of the month.
(3) Design of Physical Science Building, Reno Campus
The architects have completed the National Science
Foundation application work and are proceeding under
the terms of the preliminary design contract with the
completion of complete preliminary plans that can be
presented to the next session of the Legislature for
consideration of construction funding.
(4) Design Social Science Building, Reno Campus
The architect has completed his preliminary drawings
and is awaiting further instructions from the Univer-
sity for the preparation of the National Institute of
Health application.
(5) Social Science Building, Las Vegas
Work on this project is progressing satisfactorily.
The contractor is "out of the ground" with the con-
struction work.
(6) Site Development, Nevada Southern
The final plans are being prepared on the water dis-
tribution line to the Dormitory area. Final plans for
this project were necessarily delayed due to the nec-
essity of coordinating the work with the Clark County
Fire Department concerning emergency routing and fire-
plug locations.
In accordance with the University's request, we have
obligated $12,600 of available funds for the purpose
of paying a prorated share of the installation of the
water line from Flamingo down Harmon to University
property. The project is static at the present time
pending University dedication of the required right-
of-way and the development of a suitable agreement
meeting the requirements of the Attorney General's
Office for payment of the State's share.
(7) Men's and Women's Dormitory, Reno Campus
Architects are working on the final plans and speci-
fications for this project.
(8) Land Acquisition, Nevada Southern
No additional acquisitions have been made since the
last report. A meeting was recently held with Bishop
Dwyer concerning the possibility of having the Catholic
Church relocate to another area. The Bishop indicated
that he would entertain the possibility of exchanging
his property for property on the east side of Mary-
land Parkway. Since this places the project beyond
the scope of the State Planning Board, this will be
handled by the University.
(9) Advanced Planning, Library Additions, Las Vegas Campus
The Board has selected James B. Mc Daniel to prepare
an advance plan of the requested additions to the
Library at Nevada Southern that will be considered by
the next session of the Legislature.
Mr. Rogers then presented the following report of the proj-
ects under University supervision:
Construction Projects
(1) Dairy Farm Correction of construction

In addition to the items listed, it was noted that the
house has now been completed on Knoll Creek Station, after
encountering problems of distance from the labor market.
7. Variance Request, Ninth and Virginia Streets
Mr. Rogers discussed the request for construction of an
apartment house at the northwest corner of Ninth and Vir-
ginia Streets, to be higher than zoning permits at that
location. It was the consensus of the Regents that the
University would not protest.

9. Class Actions
President Armstrong recommended approval of the following
Class A actions as approved by the University faculty:
Item 2, Section I, entitled Tenure, page 34 of the Univer-
sity Code be changed as follows:
A. Change April 1st to March 1st in line 5.
B. Change February 1st to December 1st in line 8.
These changes affect notice of termination given to faculty
members on probationary appointments. In the case of a
faculty member serving his first year, he would be notified
on March 1st rather than April 1st that his contract would
not be continued. In the case of a faculty member who has
served one or more probationary years, he would be notified
on December 1st rather than February 1st that his contract
would not be continued. The University Council believes
that these changes make for a more equitable arrangement
and allow extra time for the person affected to seek em-
ployment elsewhere.
On page 9, paragraph 3 of the University Code add:
3.1 Purpose
The University Council is the primary organized instru-
ment of the University faculty. Its major objective is
the formulation and recommendation to the President of
legislation relative to University educational policy
and faculty welfare.
The following is required to maintain numerical sequence:
Renumber existing paragraphs 3.1 to 3.2; 3.2 to 3.3; 3.3 to
3.4; and 3.4 to 3.5.
Add the following new paragraph:
3.6 Officers
The Council shall elect from among its members a Chair-
men and a Vice Chairman who shall both serve for one
year and shall not be eligible to succeed themselves.
The Council shall elect a Secretary from among its
members who shall be responsible for the keeping of
accurate records of all activities of the Council. The
Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, and two additional
representatives elected at large from the University
Council membership shall constitute the Executive Board
of the Council. In no case shall a majority of the
seats on the Executive Board be held by one College or
division.
Except for the last sentence, the new paragraph does not
represent a change as the provision for election of Officers
and Board members is exactly as is now provided for in the
By-Laws of the University Council.
Page 11, paragraph 5.1 Class A Actions. Substitute the
following for the first paragraph:
Class A actions are those which pertain to matters of
general University educational policy and faculty wel-
fare. These would comprise subjects University-wide
in character and, in the main, related to: academic
standards, degree programs, graduate studies, research,
the University Code, salary schedules, faculty privi-
leges, and faculty fringe benefits.
Such actions shall normally be initiated by the Univer-
sity Council, some segment of the University faculty,
or from the President. After the University Council
has determined a matter to be Class A action, it shall
follow Procedure I or Procedure II.
Add the following:
Procedure I
a. The Class A action shall be approved or disapproved
by vote of the University Council.
b. Within 5 days after each Council meeting the facul-
ty shall be informed via faculty bulletins or other
adequate means of the Council's decision on each
such Class A action.
c. Any Class A action handled by Procedure I shall be
assigned to Procedure II if, within 15 days after
publication of the Council's actions, the Chairman
of the Council receives a written request for such
assignment signed by at least 10% of the members of
the University faculty, or by at least 40% of the
membership of any single College or major division.
Add the heading "Procedure II" to the present procedure as
outlined in sentences a. b. c. d. and e. under paragraph
5.1, page 11 of the University Code. (As issued under
date of September 4, 1963).
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
unanimously that the Class A actions be approved.

12. Regents' Scholarships for Nevada Residents
President Armstrong reported that the matter had been re-
ferred to the University Committee on Academic Standards
for consideration, along with other possible modifications
of the entire scholarship program. The report of the Com-
mittee had been approved by the University Council as a
recommendation to the President and the Board of Regents,
subject to certain clarifications, as follows:
An expedient first step in expanding the scholarship
program would seem to be either a Regents' or State
program of scholarships for incoming students who
have graduated from Nevada high schools.
a. A basic aspect of this kind of scholarship would
be waiver of the $100 registration fee per sem-
ester.
b. Students from outside the Reno-Las Vegas metro-
politan areas could be given an additional $150
which would be roughly equivalent to the cost of
a room in a University residence hall per sem-
ester and the additional expense of board at the
University rather than at home.
c. This scholarship, of either the $100 or $250 per
semester, should be renewable for the first 4
semesters of the Freshman and Sophomore years
depending upon the maintenance of academic re-
quirements.
d. The number of these scholarships should be equiv-
alent to 3% of the regular matriculated enroll-
ment of the University for the previous Fall sem-
ester.
Dr. Anderson brought up for discussion the matter of edu-
cation of Indian students and the difficulties they en-
counter due to their special schooling and confinement
on reservations or Indian communities. He proposed that
the Regents' scholarship program include special aid to
the American Indian, whether in-state or out-of-state.
Motion was made by Dr. Anderson to adopt the scholarship
program amended to including the following:
Establish up to a maximum of 20 fee waivers for
American Indian students with continuation of the
fee waivers to be contingent upon the student's
performance of satisfactory work.
Mr. Jacobsen seconded.
Further discussion ensued in which opinion developed that
it would be better to consider a scholarship program for
Indians entirely separate from the scholarship program
now being considered. Dr. Anderson withdrew his motion,
and Mr. Jacobsen withdrew his second.
Motion by Mr. Germain, seconded by Mrs. Magee, carried
unanimously to adopt the scholarship program as proposed
by Dr. Lombardi at the last meeting of the Board (Resolu-
tion #64-7) and also set forth in the above recommendation.
The Board recessed at 11:40 A.M. for luncheon and inspection of
the new Home Management Residence in the Home Economics build-
ing.
The Board went into Executive Session at 1:10 P.M. to consider
personnel matters. The Regents returned to regular session at
3:00 P.M.
13. Personnel Recommendation (continued)
President Armstrong again recommended approval.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Davis, carried
unanimously that the personnel recommendations be approved.
14. Scholarships for American Indians (continued)
Dr. Anderson further discussed his proposal for scholarship
aid for American Indians.
Motion by Dr. Anderson that the University establish up
to a maximum of 20 fee waivers for American Indian students
with continuation of the fee waivers to be contingent on
the student's performance of satisfactory work to remain
in school, with some special consideration to be given to
admission requirements.
There was further discussion, especially concerning ad-
mission requirements, and Dr. Anderson amended the motion
omitting "with some special consideration to be given to
admission requirements". Such waivers would have to be
included in the 3% limitation.
Mrs. Magee seconded the motion as amended, and it carried
unanimously. (See minutes of July 24-25, 1964, Item #1,
Minutes of Previous Meeting.)
15. Tuition Receipts for Retirement of Revenue Bonds
At the request of Dr. Armstrong, Mr. Humphrey had studied
the feasibility of pledging a part of the University's tui-
tion receipts to the retirement of revenue bonds and the use
of revenue bonds for financing capital improvements. One
aspect under consideration was whether or not such bonds
would be considered a debt of the State and therefore sub-
ject to the constitutional 1% limitation. Mr. Humphrey
reported to the President that in 1963, when this procedure
was recommended to the Legislature, Attorney General's
Opinion No. 13, dated March 5, 1963, was issued in response
to our inquiry and stated that "... the bonds which you
seek legislative authority to issue are not debts and are
therefore not limited by Article IX, Section 3 of the
Nevada Constitution of 1864. However, it should be clear-
ly stated as a condition of issuance that the public faith
and credit of the State of Nevada is not pledged as secur-
ity for the repayment of such obligations."
It was the consensus that his procedure be included in the
budget presentation at the next Regents' meeting.
16. Meeting of Regents' Graduate Committee
Dr. White, Chairman, reported informally on the meeting held
on May 29, 1964. The members discussed the status of grad-
uate students remaining under the grandfather clause, and
agreed on the desirability of a program to encouage eligi-
ble women to be retrained to teach at the elementary and
secondary levels. Dr. White recommended that the Admin-
istration establish a faculty and administrative committee
to study the matter and determine whether scholarship or
fellowship funds might be available for this purpose.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Dr. Anderson, carried
unanimously to request the Administration to establish a
committee to study the matter and make suggestions for
consideration of the Regents.
17. Meeting of Regents' Statewide Services Committee
Mr. Jacobsen, Chairman, reported informally on the meeting
held on May 29, 1964. Dean Kelly met with the Committee
and presented a report consisting of a proposed reorgani-
zation plan and setting up guidelines for Statewide Serv-
ices, including a name change. Mr. Jacobsen stated that
the Committee considers Statewide Services to be the arm
of the University known to more poeple than is any other
division of the University.
The Committee agreed to recommend that an Associate Degree
Program in Nursing at Nevada Southern under Statewide
Services be instituted.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Anderson, carried
unanimously that the proposed Associate Degree in Nursing
Program be approved for Nevada Southern under Statewide
Services, to use the funding already raised for the first
year, and to go to the Legislature for funds to continue
the Program.
The reorganization plan was referred to the Statewide
Services Committee of the Regents for study and action
at the next meeting of the Board.
18. Candidates for Degrees
President Armstrong recommended approval of the candidates
for graduation as of June 1, 1964 from the Reno Campus,
and as of June 3, 1964 from the Las Vegas Campus. These
candidates had been approved by the faculties concerned
