sion Presidents was recommended (report identified as Ref. 2
and filed with permanent minutes).
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
Upon motion by Mrs. Fong, seconded by Miss Mason and unanimous
vote, the supplemental agenda was admitted.
3. Amendment of 1975-76 Work Program, UNLV
President Baepler recalled the action at the previous meet-
ing approving the establishment of the Educational Services
unit at UNLV, which combined Student Personnel Services and
the University College into one administrative unit headed
by a Vice President. He requested an amendment to the UNLV
Work Program for 1975-76 to accommodate to that reorganiza-
tion. He noted that this would involve reallocation of
$824,992 among the various accounts but did not involve any
additional funds. Proposed amendment was included with the
agenda (identified as Ref. 3 and filed with permanent min-
utes). Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Mrs. Fong moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.
4. Admission Requirements for Foreign Students, UNLV
President Baepler presented the following Senate-recommended
regulations, with his endorsement, for admission of foreign
students:
(1) Each international student is required to take the
TOEFL examination and show that he has at least inter-
mediate proficiency before he is admitted to the
University.
(2) If more than six months have elapsed between the time
these tests are given and his entrance at the Univer-
sity, and if his scores are lower than the recommended
level for full academic proficiency, the student is
required to take a placement test administered by the
director of ESL so that the student can know how much
English he must take before he can enter a full aca-
demic program at UNLV.
(3) If the student is a transfer from another institution
with a certificate of proficiency in English, or with
grades in English courses which would indicate that he
can handle the work at this school, he can be admitted
without being required to take the TOEFL.
(4) All papers must have been processed before the student
receives his certificate of admission (I-20). He must
have been sent his certificate of admission by the
following dates:
(a) July 15th for Fall admission
(b) December 15th for Spring admission
(c) May 15th for Summer admission
(5) The Office of Admissions shall have the authority to
waive the language test requirement when competence in
the English language is evident.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval, effective Fall
semester, 1975.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
5. Proposed Changes to Grading System, UNLV
President Baepler reported the following recommendations by
the UNLV Senate for changes to the grading system policy as
reflected on Pages 9 and 10, Title 4, Chapter 10, Section
18.b of the Board of Regents Handbook:
(1) The existing policy on the S/N (pass/no credit) grade
option provides that "Each student may take at most one
course per semester on a pass/no credit basis up to a
maximum of 24 undergraduate credit hours, provided that
physical education activity courses shall be exempted
from the 24-credit hour limitation and from the one
course per semester limit, and that student teaching
shall be exempted from the 24-credit hour limitation."
The Senate recommends that the restriction on the num-
ber of pass/fail credit hours which may be taken during
a given semester be removed. The 24-credit hour limi-
tation for a baccalaureate and 12-credit hour limita-
tion for associate degree will remain.
(2) The existing policy on Incomplete states that "I is
given if a student has not completed all the require-
ments for the course at the end of the semester with a
reason good enough to satisfy the instructor. Incom-
pletes revert to a designated grade after one year, if
the requirements have not been made up by that time."
The Senate recommends that this policy be amended so
that the last sentence reads: "Incompletes not made up
after one year will remain an incomplete on the stu-
dent's transcript."
President Baepler and Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval effective Fall, 1975.
In response to concern expressed by Mr. Ross over the widen-
ing differences in the grading systems of the two Universi-
ties, Chancellor Humphrey suggested that action on the
recommended change in the policy on pass/fail credit be held
until the September meeting to allow for further discussion.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval of the above recommendation
reflected in (2), with action on the recommendation reflect-
ed in (1) deferred until September. Motion seconded by Mrs.
Fong, carried without dissent.
6. Report on UNLV Nursing Program
President Baepler recalled the previous discussion in the
Press of the nursing program at UNR noting that this had
prompted him to request Dean May Ann Michel to be present to
discuss with the Board the quality of the nursing program at
UNLV and the report of the quality of the committee which
had recently concluded a review of that program.
Dean Michel commented on the program as it has progressed
since 1971. (A copy of Dean Michel's comments are filed
with permanent minutes).
7. Requests for Loans from the DRI Contingency Reserve
President Smith requested the following loans from the DRI
Contingency Reserve:
(1) ERDA Contract AT(29)-1253, general and 6 subcontracts
totaling $488,230 effective July 1, 1975 have been ne-
gotiated but the final documents have not been receiv-
ed. A loan to fund operation on this contract in the
amount of $97,646 for two months is requested.
(2) Governor's Committee on Waste Disposal. The State
Planning Coordinator has informed the Center for Water
Resources Research that a contract in the amount of
$5,000 to allow work to begin is requested.
(3) The Laboratory of Atmospheric Physics has had a con-
tract with Bechtel Power Company for meteorological
air quality work necessary to select a site for the
Harry Allen Generating Plant in Southern Nevada. The
renewal of the contract has not yet been received. A
loan of $30,300 is requested to allow the work to con-
tinue until the renewal document is received.
(4) A loan of $3,900 is requested to allow work on Air
Force Grant No. AF 19628-72-C-0280, under the direction
of Dr. John Hallett, to continue until the renewal doc-
ument is received.
(5) A loan of $3,800 is requested to allow the work on NSF
Grant No. OPP73-05843A01 under the direction of Profes-
sor Joseph Warburton to continue until the renewal do-
cument is received.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval, noting that the
Contingency Reserve now has a balance of $184,060.74 and
upon approval of the above loans, the balance would be
$47,914.74.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
8. Proposed Change of Laboratory and Center Names, DRI
President Smith recalled that in May he had recommended the
name of the Western Studies Center be changed to Social
Sciences Center, and the name of the Desert Biology Labora-
tory be changed to the Ecology and Bio-Energetics Center.
Dr. Smith's recommendation was included with the agenda
(identified as Ref. 8 and filed with permanent minutes).
Dr. Smith further recalled that at the May meeting it had
been reported that these recommendations had been referred
to the UNR and UNLV Divisions for review with action to be
scheduled at the July meeting.
Chancellor Humphrey reported that reservations have been
expressed by UNR and UNLV concerning these changes and in
view of these reservations, he recommended that this item
be postponed until November in order that discussion and
decision may be combined with discussion and decision on
the DRI position paper.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
9. Approval of Fund Transfers, DRI
President Smith requested approval of the following fund
transfers:
#76-001 $68,107 from the Reserve for Energy Studies and
Reorientation Programs to the Laboratory of Atmos-
pheric Physics to provide administrative support
required to begin to reorient some of its programs.
#76-003 $15,000 from the Reserve for Energy Studies and
Reorientation Programs to the Laboratory of Atmos-
perhic Physics to provide seed money for Air
Motions Study.
#76-002 $15,000 from the Reserve for Energy Studies and
Reorientation Programs to the Laboratory of Atmos-
pheric Physics to provide seed money for Solar
Energy Research project.
#76-004 $30,000 from the Reserve for Energy Studies and
Reorientation Programs to the Laboratory of Atmos-
pheric Physics to provide sufficient funds for
analysis of data collected on Pyramid Lake Project
and completion of final report.
#76-005 $60,000 from Weather Modification Reserve to the
Laboratory of Atmospheric Physics to establish
budget for Walker Lake Weather Modification Study
as approved by the 1975 Session of the Nevada
Legislature.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.

11. New Program Proposal, CCD
President Donnelly presented a Phase II proposal for a pro-
gram in Occupational Safety and Health leading to both a
certificate and an Associate in Applied Science degree at
CCCC and WNCC. Following discussion of the proposal (copy
on file in the Chancellor's Office) President Donnelly
requested approval by the Board. Chancellor Humphrey
concurred.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. Ross,
carried without dissent.
12. Cosmetology Program Fee, CCD
President Donnelly noted that under a cooperative agreement
between Western Nevada Community College and Ponce College
of Beauty in Reno, students are provided an opportunity to
earn an Associate in Applied Science degree while training
as a Cosmetologist. President Donnelly requested authoriza-
tion to assess a fee of $3 per credit, instead of the $8 per
credit registration fee, for each course taken in the major
occupational area. This fee will be in addition to the fees
paid to the Ponce College of Beauty. Chancellor Humphrey
recommended approval, effective immediately.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
13. CCD Administration Office Space
President Donnelly noted that his office and the CCD admin-
istration operations presently occupy 1,745 gross square
feet of office space in the UNS Administration building, 405
Marsh Avenue, and they lease additional space in the Lee
Brothers' building at 506 Humboldt Street. He requested
that two additional offices be leased in the Lee Brothers'
building for the period July 1, 1975 to June 30, 1977, at
the additional annual rate of $4,162.32, bringing the total
lease to $8,002.32 annually. Chancellor Humphrey recommend-
ed approval.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
14. CCCC Building Lease
President Donnelly recalled that CCCC has had a lease with
the Delhi Corporation for the period December 11, 1972 to
June 30, 1975, for the property at 801 North Main Street,
Las Vegas, at an annual rate of $16,800, or 13.5 cents per
gross square foot per month. (The adjacent Review-Journal
lease is at 17.5 cents per gross square foot per month.)
Dr. Donnelly reported that he has negotiated an extension of
two years; however, the best terms which could be secured
were for an annual rate of $24,000 or 19.5 cents per gross
square foot per month. He stated that the Review-Journal
and Delhi properties are both required until the Summer,
1977, at which time the operations located there will be
moved to the main Campus site on Cheyenne Street, North Las
Vegas. Chancellor Humphrey recommended the lease be
approved.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Dr. Lombardi,
carried without dissent.
15. Solar Energy Research Facility
President Smith recalled the earlier action by Boulder City
in making available to the DRI a parcel of land on which to
construct a solar energy-heated-and-cooled Desert Biology
Laboratory. He also recalled the decision to abandon the
plans to construct this facility because of the lack of ade-
quate funding. Subsequently, the 1975 Legislature appro-
priated $370,000 to build a Solar Energy Laboratory in
Clark County.
Dr. Smith reported that because of the budget constraints
it was concluded that the original site provided by Boulder
City would not be suitable because it required extensive
site preparation and it was agreed that an alternate site
would be required. Accordingly, the Boulder City Council
was informed of the problem with the original site and was
requested to suggest some alternate sites if there was still
an interest in having the laboratory located there. Sites
were also considered on the UNLV Campus and elsewhere in
Las Vegas.
Five sites were suggested as suitable alternates by Boulder
City and were considered by the Institute. One was found to
be acceptable and met the criteria which had been developed.
Dr. Smith continued by reporting on his negotiations with
the Boulder City Council and the resolution of concerns both
on the part of DRI (i. e., a potential assessment for the
extension of Buchanan Blvd.) and on the part of Boulder City
(i. e., proposed occasional use of trailers on the site).
Mr. Tim Cooper, Mayor of Boulder City, spoke concerning the
position of the City of Boulder, stating that at a meeting
the previous evening, the City Manager and Council were in-
structed to prepare a letter to the Board of Regents and DRI
setting forth Boulder City's intention to transfer the land
identified by Dr. Smith as being a suitable site for the
Solar Energy Research Facility (identified as approximately
three acres, with a 300' frontage along Buchanan Blvd.), and
to enter into a new agreement canceling the old parcel. Mr.
Cooper further stated that Senator James Gibson has express-
ed the opinion that it was a State obligation to provide the
offsite improvements (i. e., the extension of Buchanan Blvd.
if that becomes appropriate), and he continued by stating
that this matter would be worked out in the final agreement
in a manner so as to eliminate any requirement for DRI to
provide offsite improvement money. Even, he added, to the
extent that Boulder City could, pending the next legislative
session, provide interim financing for the offsite improve-
ments.
In response to an inquiry from Chairman Buchanan concerning
the number of Council members present the previous evening,
Mr. Cooper stated that two of the five members were present.
He added, however, that he felt that he and the other member
present could adequately relay the information to the addi-
tional Council members and answer any additional questions
they may have.
In further response to inquiries from Chairman Buchanan,
Mayor Cooper stated that he believed that Boulder City could
meet the requirements of DRI if the facility is located in
that city and that the site selected by President Smith
could meet the requirements for the location of the facil-
ity. He also noted that in addition to the three acres in
the initial site, seven acres are being held for future
expansion if required.
Dr. Smith stated that in view of the fact that Boulder City
has been so cooperative and, in that the site under consid-
eration seems to be suitable for the Solar Energy Research
Facility and provides space for necessary expansion, and in
view of the fact that DRI is already somewhat late in get-
ting into this area, he recommended that if Boulder City can
effect the transfer the Board of Regents accept the site
offered.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.
16. Request from Dr. Lonnie L. Hammargren
President Smith reported that Dr. Hammargren, President of
the Astronomical Society of Southern Nevada, had requested
assistance from the Desert Research Institute to engineer
and supervise the installation of absorbers on the roof of
his house in conjunction with an addition which is presently
under construction. Dr. Smith stated that he had pointed
out to Dr. Hammargren that DRI was not in a position to
provide this assistance and suggested that he go to a more
conventional roof. Dr. Smith noted the presence of Dr.
Hammargren who had requested an opportunity to discuss the
project with the Board.
Dr. Hammargren distributed a letter to the Board which re-
quested a cooperative effort whereby the University would
commit $20,000 to the Astronomical Society to investigate
the current state of the art of solar energy utilization re-
garding present standards of construction in compliance with
building codes, and requested the Board to assign University
personnel to work on the project. This study would be con-
ducted by constructing solar energy collectors on the roof
of Dr. Hammargren's residence.
Chairman Buchanan stated that he did not believe that it
would be legally permissible to allocate State funds for a
project on private property. He suggested that Dr. Baepler
might arrange to introduce Dr. Hammargren to someone on the
staff who was qualified to do consulting in this area.
17. Proposed Land Lease for Animal Disease Laboratory, NNCC
President Donnelly reported that the Nevada State Department
of Agriculture plans to build an Animal Disease Laboratory
in Elko and the State Public Works Board has requested that
the building be located on the Campus of NNCC. Dr. Donnelly
stated that the NNCC Advisory Board and Vice President Berg
concur with the location of this building on that Campus.
He requested that the Board authorize the negotiation of a
lease agreement with the Department of Agriculture for the
land necessary for a building estimated at 1,100 assignable
square feet, to be located at the far end of the Campus near
the fairgrounds and adjacent to the proposed freeway. He
also recommended that the final plans for the proposed fa-
cility be subject to administrative review and Board approv-
al in order that the University may be assured of archi-
tectural compatibility.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval, with the under-
standing that the terms of the lease agreement will be sub-
ject to review by Counsel and to approval by the Board and
the Governor.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.

Dr. Donnelly stated that the State Public Works Board pro-
poses to award a contract to Corrao Construction Co. for the
base bid plus the alternate for a total of $3,490,835. The
project budget is $4,196,000. President Donnelly and
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the Board of Regents
concur in the award of a contract as proposed.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. Ross,
carried without dissent.
20. Bid Opening, Northern Nevada Community College Landscaping
President Donnelly reported that bids were opened by the
State Public Works Board on July 8, 1975, with the following
results:
Bidder Base Bid Alt A Total
Nevada Lawn Service $28,470 $3,000 $31,670
Angelo Pecorilla 27,500 7,000 34,500
Dr. Donnelly stated that the State Public Works Board pro-
poses to award a contract to Nevada Lawn Service for the

Mrs. Fong moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.
21. Bookstore Loan, CCCC
President Donnelly recalled that in July, 1974, the Board
approved a $40,000 loan from the CCCC Capital Improvement
Fee account to the CCCC Bookstore to finance inventory for
the period between the receipt and sale of books for the
Fall and Spring semesters. The loan is repayable at the
end of the 60-day period following each semester opening.
Dr. Donnelly requested that this loan be increased to
$70,000 under the same terms and conditions for repayment,
noting that the increased enrollment and resulting increases
in class offerings makes the $40,000 loan insufficient to
cover the required short term inventory. Chancellor
Humphrey recommended approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.
22. CCCC Student Body Association Budget for 1975-76

carried without dissent.
Mr. Karaffa, CSUN President, requested that the Student
Body Association Presidents from the Community College
Division be invited to attend Board meetings and to repre-
sent their associations, in the same manner that CSUN and
ASUN are represented.
Chancellor Humphrey pointed out that for the past eight
years, all Student Body Associations have been invited to
send their President or other representative to Board
meetings and funds are provided to reimburse their travel;
however, the practice had been for the CCD Student Body
President nearest the meeting to represent CCD. It was
agreed that the Chairman would send a letter to all stu-
dent body officers, restating the invitation to attend
Board meetings.
23. Night Depository Agreement, CCD
President Donnelly requested approval of a Special
Depository Agreement with First National Bank in Fallon
for use by WNCC of the night depository facilities for the
deposit of registration fees collected in Fallon. He
proposed the following persons be authorized to make such
deposits:
Bert Munson, Marvin Wycoff or Elliott Lima.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Miss Mason moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.
24. Degree Requirement after Matriculation, UNR
President Milam noted that the Board of Regents Handbook
(Title 4, Chapter 10, Section 16) provides that "A nondegree
student at UNR may register for a maximum of six semester
credits (or equivalent) in classroom instruction in one
semester. Although there is no limit to the number of
credits which may be earned in this category, a maximum
of 15 credits is acceptable toward a bachelor's degree."
President Milam recommended that this policy be changed to
allow a nondegree student to apply up to 32 credits towards
a degree requirement after matriculation. Chancellor
Humphrey recommended approval, effective immediately.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.

27. Fuson Lecture Fund, UNR
President Milam recalled that in 1965, Dr. R. C. Fuson,
Visting Professor in the Chemistry Department, UNR, gave the
University a gift in the form of common stock of the E. I.
Du Pont de Nemours and Company, valued at approximately
$10,000, with the stipulation that the income therefrom be
used to establish and support an annual lectureship in
Chemistry. In accepting this gift, the Board agreed to
guarantee a fund of $500 for each fiscal year for five years
starting in 1965-66, in the event the income from the gift
was less than $500 annually.
Dr. Milam noted that in 1966 the Fuson Lecture Fund was
supplemented with $298.53 from the Board of Regents Special
Projects Fund and in 1967 was again supplemented by $189.06.
In 1968, the fund fell short of the $500 total by $80.03; in
1969, the shortage was $61.94; and in 1970, $26.18, making a
total shortage for the three year period of $168.15.
President Milam requested that $168.15 be transferred from
the Board of Regents Special Projects Account to fund the
deficit in the Fuson Chemistry Lecture Fund. Chancellor
Humphrey recommended approval.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.
28. Approval of Fund Transfers, UNR
President Milam requested approval of the following fund
transfer:
#102 $6,200 from the Contingency Reserve to the Bureau of
Business and Economic Research to provide salaries
for two Graduate Assistants.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr.
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
29. Transfer of Corporate Trust Funds, UNR
President Milam requested approval of the following trans-
fers of corporate trust funds:
Equipment Building Total
Corporate Trust 30
Student Housing $ 3,684.06 $11,848.82 $15,532.88

Total $27,777.20 $33,317.75 $61,094.95
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Mrs. Fong moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.
30. Request for Funds for Medical School Admissions Committee
President Milam noted that for the past two fiscal years,
the Board has provided travel funds for the Medical School
Admissions Committee. He requested an allocation for 1975-
76 of $4,287 from the Board of Regents Special Projects
account. Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Mrs. Fong moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. Ross,
carried without dissent.
31. Appointments to Investment Advisory Committee
Chairman Buchanan recalled that appointments to the Invest-
ment Advisory Committee had been made in January of Dr.
Lombardi for one year, Mrs. Knudtsen and Mrs. Fong for six
months. He announced the reappointment of Mrs. Knudtsen and
Mrs. Fong for the six months term ending December 1975, and
the appointment of Mr. John Buchanan to a six months term,
also ending December, 1975 with Dr. Lombardi to continue
as Chairman.
The meeting adjourned for lunch and a meeting of the Investment
Advisory Committee and reconvened in regular session at 1:30 P.M.
32. Anderson Health Science Building, UNR
A. Presentation of Final Plans, Phase II - Mr. Edward
Parsons, architect, presented the final plans for the
Phase II addition to the Anderson Health Science build-
ing. A summary of the scope and project was included
with the agenda (identified as Ref. 24 and filed with
permanent minutes). President Milam recommended ap-
proval. Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs.
Knudtsen, carried without dissent.
B. President Milam recalled that the addition to the
Anderson Health Science building is to be financed by a
$950,000 Federal grant, $350,000 Max C. Fleischmann
Foundation grant, and $350,000 from the Howard Hughes
Operating grant. He noted that in response to a request
from Regent Anderson, the UNR Capital Improvement Fee
Fund had been analyzed to determine if any funds are
available in that account which may be used to replace
the Hughes money so that those funds could be used for
operating. Accordingly, that analysis had revealed
that $81,769 will be available after Fall registration
and President Milam recommended that $80,000 of this be
used to replace a like amount of Hughes' money in the
building account. Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss
Mason, carried without dissent.
C. President Milam reported that UNR has received a Federal
grant of $700,000 for the design and construction of
Phase III of the Anderson Health Science building. The
grant requires a matching contribution of $300,000 from
private sources. In order to save time, programming and
schematic design should be initiated now, although
matching funds must still be secured. President Milam
reported that Mr. Edward Parsons, architect for the
existing building, as well as the Phase II addition,
has indicated a willingness to assist in this process
without a formal agreement for services. He recommended
and Chancellor Humphrey concurred that Mr. Parsons be
nominated as architect for Phase III and that the State
Public Works Board be requested to enter into an agree-
ment with Mr. Parsons for professional services for
Phase III of the Anderson Health Sciences building at
such time as the required matching funds are secured.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Dr.
Lombardi, carried without dissent.
33. Requests for Interfund Loans, UNR
A. President Milam noted that the Board had previously
approved an interfund loan of $10,000 from UNR Parking
Permits account to Central Office Services Sales account
to be used to finance inventory and to be repaid in two
years. This amount has proven to be insufficient to
handle the inventory required by the volume of work done
in this unit. President Milam requested that the loan
amount be increased to $15,000. Chancellor Humphrey
recommended approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs.
Fong, carried without dissent.
B. President Milam requested approval of an interfund loan
of $13,500 from the UNR Parking Permits account to
Library Operating to be used along with State appro-
priated monies for the purchase of a book-detection
system costing approximately $25,580, with the loan to
be repaid over a 3-year period from operating funds of
the Library. Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Dr.
Lombardi, carried without dissent.
34. Proposed Property Acquisition, UNR
President Milam reported that pieces of property on Evans
Avenue are now available for purchase -- 1039 Evans Avenue
(directly east of the Fleischmann College of Agriculture),
and 1137 Evans Avenue (south of the Naval Armory). He
recommended that appraisals be obtained and the Administra-
tion be authorized to negotiate with the owners with pur-
chase subject to further review and approval by the Board.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. Ross,
carried without dissent.
35. Request for Approval of Special Course Fees, UNR
President Milam requested authorization to assess a special
course fee of $35 per course for the following, effective
Fall semester, 1975:
A. Sc. 106 Basic Equitation (Horsemanship)
A. Sc. 206 Horse Husbandry
A. Sc. 208 Competitive Equitation
A. Sc. 209 Horse Management
A. Sc. 485 Special Problems in Horse and Rider Training
In each case, the above fee is in addition to the per-credit
hour registration fee. Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Dr.
Lombardi, carried without dissent.
36. Budget Augmentations, UNR
A. President Milam reported that in late May Dean Bohmont
was notified of final approval of 1974-75 Hatch and
Smith-Lever Federal allocations for the Agricultural
Experiment Station and the Cooperative Extension Serv-
ice. In addition, revised estimates for 1975-76 be-
came available. In order for these funds to be ex-
pended the Board of Regents must approve augmentation
of the budgets. This action is then subject to ap-
proval of the State Budget Director and the Governor.
Detail of the revisions requested is as follows:

Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the augmentations
be approved. If approved, the Administration will then
attempt to secure State approval, including the retro-
active approval for 1974-75 funds which have been encum-
bered but not expended awaiting this action.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs.
Fong, carried without dissent.
B. President Milam reported that the 1975 Legislature
appropriated $45,500 to the College of Agriculture for
1975-76 for two special projects not included in the
University's operating budget. These are to be expended
as follows:
1975-76 Analytical Lab
Classified Salaries $13,500
Operating 24,500*
Total $38,000
*Includes $19,000 for equipment
1975-76 Use of Irrigation Water in Drainage Basins of
Truckee and Carson Rivers
Classified Salaries $ 7,500
Total $ 7,500
President Milam and Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs.
Fong, carried without dissent.
37. Dean for Community Relations, UNR
President Milam recalled that in March, 1974 during a dis-
cussion by the Board of the 1974-75 Work Program, the
Administration was informed of the Board's desire to dis-
continue the position of Dean for Community Relations at
the UNR Campus. Accordingly, the 1975-77 budget request
which was presented to the Board and adopted by the Board
in July, 1974 eliminated the position of Dean for Community
Relations. The 1975-76 Work Program adopted by the Board
also eliminated the position.
Dr. Milam continued by pointing out that notice of the in-
tent to discontinue the position effective June 30, 1975 was
given to Dr. Sam Basta in writing on June 13, 1974, and the
matter was discussed with him by Acting President Anderson.
Dr. Basta, who has tenure, was offered a position as
Placement Officer and Professor in the Office of Student
Services.
President Milam reported that Dr. Basta objects to the re-
assignment and his counsel, Charles Springer, contends that
Dr. Basta heads an administrative unit which may be abolish-
ed only by action of the Board of Regents, pursuant to
Section 1.3.7 of the UNS Code which states that "Creation,
abolition, or substantial alteration of Departments, Col-
leges, laboratories, centers, or similar administrative
units shall be approved only after consideration by the
unit and the Division concerned, according to the Division
Bylaws. Final action shall require approval by the Board
of Regents."
Dr. Milam further noted that Dr. Basta was appointed to the
position of "Dean for Community Relations" by the Board on
October 9-10, 1970. An administrative unit similar to a
Department, College, laboratory or center was not created.
Dr. Basta served in a staff position with a secretary
under his supervision.
Mr. Hug commented briefly on the matter, restating his ad-
vice to President Milam that this is not an administrative
unit which requires action under Section 1.3.7 before the
position can be terminated. He advised, however, that in
order to avoid any misunderstanding concerning the intent
of the Board in its previous action in terminating the
position, a specific motion reaffirming the termination be
adopted.
Dr. Lombardi moved that the previous action of the Board of
Regents in terminating the position of Dean for Community
Relations in the adoption of the budget and Work Program for
the year 1975-76 be ratified and approved and that the posi-
tion be abolished. Motion seconded by Mr. John Buchanan,
carried without dissent.
38. Report of Investment Advisory Committee
Dr. Lombardi, Chairman of the Investment Advisory Committee,
presented the minutes of the meeting of that Committee of
May 30, 1975. (Minutes identified as Ref. 36 and filed with
permanent minutes.)
Miss Mason moved confirmation of the actions of the commit-
tee. Motion seconded by Mrs. Knudtsen, carried without
dissent.
39. Legislation Concerning Smoking in Public Places
Chancellor Humphrey noted the inclusion with the agenda of
Opinion No. 191 from the Attorney General concerning inter-
pretation of Assembly Bill No. 17 which prohibits smoking
in certain designated areas. (Opinion identified as Ref. 37
and filed with permanent minutes.) Mr. Hug commented on
the opinion with regard to its effect on the University,
noting that it would apply to public elevators, libraries,
museums, waiting rooms and lobbies of Health Care facilities
and public meetings in University buildings. It would not,
he said, apply to classrooms, halls, waiting rooms and cafe-
terias of University buildings. He recommended that appro-
priate signs be posted where applicable.
40. Grants-in-Aid for Goss Children
Chairman Buchanan requested consideration by the Board of
Regents of the dedication of grants-in-aid for tuition and
registration fees for the benefit of the children of Glen
Goss, the Utah trucker who was killed in Las Vegas recently
while attempting to aid a Nevada Highway patrolman. The
grants-in-aid are to be available to any of the Goss chil-
dren attending any Division of the University of Nevada
System. The Presidents and Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.
41. ACT/SAT Policy Statement
Chancellor Humphrey recalled that in April, Regent John
Buchanan requested a review by the instructional Divisions
of the acceptability of the SAT in substitution for ACT.
In May UNLV reported that although students are encouraged
to take the ACT, if they have already taken the SAT, it will
be accepted. CCD reported that neither test is used since
admission to the Community Colleges is open. UNR reported
that the ACT is presently required for Freshman admission
and it was anticipated that it would continue to be a re-
quirement. The Board then directed, at the May meeting,
that this matter be further reviewed and that a recommenda-
tion be developed concerning the substitution of SAT scores
for ACT when the applicant has already taken the SAT, and
that such option be published in the appropriate catalogs.
Accordingly, in conformity with the Board's action in May,
Chancellor Humphrey recommended the following policy state-
ment be approved and that it be included in the UNR and
UNLV catalogs:
American College Test (ACT) scores are required for
Freshman admission to the University for the use in
academic advisement, proper course placement and for
those resident applicants who do not qualify on the
basis of the high school record. An applicant who
completes the SAT and otherwise qualifies for admis-
sion is exempt from the ACT requirement.
Mrs. Fong moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
42. Intercollegiate Athletics Budget for 1975-76
Recommendations from President Baepler and President Milam
for Intercollegiate Athletics budgets for 1975-76 were in-
cluded with the agenda (identified as Ref. 40 and filed with
permanent minutes). The budget for UNLV totaled $1,236,976
of State appropriation and other revenues ($571,247 of State
appropriation), and the budget for UNR totaled $764,532
($571,247 of State appropriation).
Miss Delia Martinez, Research Analyst in Institutional
Studies and Budget, presented an analysis of the two pro-
posed budgets, including a comparison with the budget for
1974-75.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the budgets as
requested by the Presidents. He pointed out that the analy-
sis presented was related to the number of particpants in
the included sports and was not intended to establish a
precedent for future ICA budgets. He also noted that these
budgets were developed with Title IX guidelines in mind and
he believed that the spirit and letter of Title IX had been
met.
Dr. Lombardi moved approval of the budgets as presented.
Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong, carried without dissent.
43. Division Host Funds
Chancellor Humphrey noted that for the past several years,
the Board has provided host funds from the Board of Regents
Special Projects account to each of the Divisions. Each
account, under the signature authority of the President of
the Division, is for the benefit of the units within his
Division, and is separate from the host fund provided to the
President. He recalled that $3,000 was provided to each
Division in 1974-75; however, the need for such funds is
not uniform.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that sufficient funds be
transferred from the Board of Regents Special Projects
account to provide $5,000 to CCD and $3,000 to each of the
other three Divisions for 1975-76, with the actual amounts
to be transferred determined by the June 30 closing bal-
ances in the existing accounts.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. John
Buchanan, carried without dissent.
44. Delegation of Authority in Awarding Contracts
Chancellor Humphrey pointed out that the Board of Regents
does not meet again until September 12, and that the State
Public Works Board has advertised invitations to bid for
the following projects:
(1) UNLV, Museum of Natural History, Phase I (Remodel),
Project Budget $100,000. Bid opening July 30, 1975.
(2) UNLV, Tennis Court Lighting, Project Budget $90,000.
Bid opening July 31, 1975.
(3) UNR, Resurfacing of Track, Mackay Stadium, Project
Budget $47,700. Bid opening July 31, 1975.
(4) DRI-CCD, Road/Utilities to DRI from WNCC (North Reno
Site), Project Budget $125,000. Bid opening August 7,
1975.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the Board agree to a
mail ballot following the last bid opening on August 7 in
order that the State Public Works Board would have the
benefit of the Board of Regents' advice in the award of
these contracts.
Mrs. Knudtsen moved approval. Motion seconded by Mr. Ross,
carried without dissent.
45. Proposed Gift of Property to CCD
President Donnelly recalled that in January, 1972 he had re-
ported the offer of a gift of property located in Henderson
for use by Clark County Community College. There were no
other restrictions placed on the gift by the donors, Mr. and
Mrs. Herman M. Greenspun, and it was reported that the
property could be sold as long as the proceeds benefited the
Community College. The gift was accepted by the Board for
the purpose specified. Subsequently, Dr. Donnelly noted,
it was learned that the deed was in error and was, there-
fore, never recorded.
President Donnelly stated that the deed has not been cor-
rected and the property, approximately 120 acres in Green
Valley, Clark County, Nevada, has been reoffered with the
only additional condition being a right of first refusal to
the Greenspuns in the event the property is eventually sold.
President Donnelly and Chancellor Humphrey recommended
acceptance of the property under the conditions of the pre-
vious offer and the one additional condition requested.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Miss Mason,
carried without dissent.
46. Land Acquisition, UNLV
President Baepler recalled that the 1975 Legislature appro-
priated $530,100 for acquisition of the 48.40 acres present-
ly held by the UNLV Land Foundation, which the Foundation
has agreed to sell for $583,044.74, excluding escrow costs.
An additional $52,944.74 is required in order to acquire
the land.
Dr. Baepler reported that the State Public Works Board had
recommended the following transfers from other approved
construction budgets, in order that this purchase may be
made:
Approved Proposed Revised
Project Budget Transfer Budget
Storm Drain, UNLV $224,460 $ 2,000 $222,460
Athletic Fields, UNLV 211,500 22,000 189,500
Parking Lot, UNLV 252,900 30,000 222,900
Total $688,860 $54,000 $634,860
President Baepler and Chancellor Humphrey recommended the
necessary reduction in the budgets of the above three proj-
ects to permit the transfer of $54,000 to the Land Acquisi-
tion budget in order that the 48.4 acres may be acquired
from the Land Foundation.
Mr. Ross moved approval. Motion seconded by Mrs. Fong,
carried without dissent.
47. New Business
Mrs. Fong noted that students are being charged ten cents
per copy for Xerox copies on the Campus and suggested the
cost was too high. President Baepler agreed to look into
the matter.
The Action Agenda was concluded and the Information Agenda
was submitted. That agenda, on file in the Chancellor's
Office, contained the following items:
(1) Report of Purchases in Excess of $8,000
(2) Report of Fund Transfers
(3) Report of Foreign Travel
(4) Summary of Press Releases, Mackay School of Mines
(5) Progress of University Projects
(6) Report of Board of Regents Special Projects Fund
(7) Report of Disciplinary Cases
(8) WNCC, Phase II, and DRI, Phase I (Site Work)
The meeting adjourned at 3:00 P.M.
Bonnie M. Smotony
Secretary to the Board
