4. Approval of Check Registers
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the check
registers as submitted by the Office of the Business
Manager, UN (filed with permanent minutes).
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the check registers be approved as
submitted.
5. Approval of Purchases in Excess of $5000, NSU
Vice President Baepler reported that bids were opened on
September 6 for dairy products to be sold through the Snack
Bar of the Campus Student Union. Results of the bids, based
on estimated purchases through December 30, 1968, were as
follows:
Anderson Dairy $16,796.59
Arden Farm Company 16,553.16
Hiland Dairy 16,104.00
Meadow Gold Dairy 16,030.08
Mr. Westfall reported that the Dairy Commission has indicat-
ed that the prices bid are below the standard price and an
adjustment must be made. However, he noted that Meadow
Gold Dairy would still be the low bidder and recommended
the contract be so awarded in the adjusted amount of
$16,171.10.
Vice President Baepler and Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried
without dissent that the contract for dairy products be
awarded as recommended.
6. Payment for Professional Accounting Services
Dr. Baepler reported that in the Spring of 1968, it was
necessary to have a complete independent audit of NSU
registration figures before bond counsel could issue an
opinion on the Chemistry building revenue bond issue.
This work was done under the direction of Kafoury, Arm-
strong, Bernard and Bergstrom, and included work by the
Las Vegas firm of Bunker Jones & Co. The bill for these
services is $2240 and, although an unbudgeted expenditure,
would be a legitimate charge against the project account.
However, he noted that the project account is fully com-
mitted and recommended payment be made from the NSU Capital
Improvement Fee Fund.
Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
7. Estimative Budgets for Off-Campus Extension, NSU
Dr. Baepler requested approval of a 1968-69 estimative
budget totaling $60,000 for the newly organized NSU Off-
Campus Extension Division (budget filed with permanent
minutes).
Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the estimative budgets be approved
as submitted.
8. Nursing Television Program
Dean Elmore, Orvis School of Nursing, presented a progress
report on the Inter-Campus Nursing Education Project.
(Complete report on file in the Chancellor's Office.)
Dean Elmore stated that she believed that the purposes
of the project are being accomplished and that continued
cooperation between the staffs of the Orvis School of
Nursing, UN, and the College of General and Technical
Studies, NSU, will be a determining factor in the success
of this pilot program in closed circuit television teach-
ing. This project is underwritten by the Division of
Nursing, Department of Health, Education and Welfare, for
a period of 4 years for over $700,000. It has provided
the means for extending the first 3 years of the baccalau-
reate program in Nursing to NSU and the first year of the
associate degree program in Nursing to UN, thus avoiding
the duplication of costly programs.
Mr. Bell entered the meeting.
9. Student Health Service, UN
President Miller discussed the reports which had been dis-
tributed to the Board concerning the Student Health Service
at the University (reports on file in the Chancellor's Of-
fice). The reports, one from a University Committee ap-
pointed by President Miller, and the other by a Committee
of the Washoe County Medical Society, contained a number
of recommendations concerning the Student Health Service.
President Miller noted that many of the recommendations
had already been implemented and that efforts would con-
tinue to fully implement all the recommendations. President
Miller also expressed appreciation to the groups who had
submitted the reports.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried without
dissent that the reports be accepted and that an expression
of appreciation be sent to the two groups on behalf of the
Board of Regents.
10. Management Development Program
President Miller presented a proposal that a Management
Development Program be established as a separate Division
of General University Extension at the University of Nevada.
He proposed that this Division work in cooperation with and
parallel to the Division of Continuing Education, working
closely with the State Personnel Office in the development
of an in-service training program for that agency. (Details
of the proposal are filed with the permanent minutes.)
President Miller further proposed that John Eberhardt be
appointed as Director of the Program for one year.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the proposal as
outlined by President Miller. The appointment of Mr.
Eberhardt as Director of the Program does not require the
Chancellor's review.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried with-
out dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
11. Purchases in Excess of $5000, UN
A. President Miller presented a request from the UN Library
that they be authorized to purchase from Dorothy
Bartlett and Margaret Thornton the papers, books,
records and other materials of the late Judge George
Bartlett for the sum of $15,000. President Miller
stated that a $500 deposit was given to the owners by
the Friends of the University Library to ensure the
University's exclusive right to purchase for a period
of 6 months ending October 6, 1968. He further noted
that the Friends have raised an additional $855.50
toward the purchase price and it is expected that the
Friends, the Alumni Association and other donors will
be able to raise sufficient funds to replace the funds
expended by the University for the purchase of this
material. He requested authorization to commit $2490
of the General Gifts Fund (Library) and $11,154.45
from the General Book Fund to complete the purchase.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended approval of the purchase
as requested.
Motion by Mr. Seeliger, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott,
carried without dissent that the UN Library be author-
ized to purchase the Bartlett Papers in the amount of
$15,000.
B. Mr. Pine reported that the following bids were opened
September 3 for 2 analyzer systems for the Physics
Department:
Nuclear Data, Inc. $12,425
Victorian Instrument Division 15,510
Packard Instrument Co. 23,650
He recommended award to Nuclear Data, Inc. President
Miller and Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Dr. Lombardi,
carried without dissent that the bid of Nuclear Data,
Inc. be accepted and that a contract issued in the
amount of $12,425 for the purchase of 2 analyzer
systems for the Physics Department.
C. Mr. Pine reported that the following bids were opened
September 17 for the purchase of a hydraulic system
and a backhoe for a B & G tractor:
Springmeyer Equip. Co., Reno $ 7,856.66
Farmer Mach. & Supply Co., Reno 8,138.00
Sierra Machinery Co., Reno 8,230.62
Mr. Pine stated that the Springmeyer bid did not meet
specifications and recommended that the bid of Farmer's
Machinery and Supply be accepted. President Miller
and Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, car-
ried without dissent that the bid of Farmer's Machin-
ery and Supply Co. be accepted and a contract issued
in the amount of $8138.00.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried without
dissent that the Supplemental Agenda, submitted by Chancellor
Humphrey, be approved for consideration.
D. Mr. Pine reported that the Chemistry Department has
requested the purchase of an automatic Digital Readout
Polarimeter. An extensive investigation of various
manufacturers has been conducted and the Chemistry
Department has requested that Model 1141, manufactured
by the Perkin-Elmer Corporation, be purchased. Perkin-
Elmer Corporation is the only source and has confirmed
a price of $6985 in a quotation.
Mr. Pine recommended that the item be purchased from
Perkin-Elmer Corporation. President Miller and
Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the above purchase be approved.
12. Plant and Property, UN
A. Physical Science Complex, Phase I
Chancellor Humphrey reported that bids for this program
were opened September 12 by the State Planning Board.
He noted that an analysis of the bids was mailed to all
Regents and written confirmation of award was received
from a majority of the Regents. He recommended that
the Board confirm its approval of award of the contract
to Jacobsen Construction Co., Salt Lake City, for the
base bid plus alternates 1 through 9 for a total con-
tract of $3,554,100. Approval of the award has been
given by the State Planning Board and the Office of
Education, Department of Health, Education and Welfare.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be ap-
proved.
Dr. Anderson referred to a telegram which had been re-
ceived from an unsuccessful sub-contractor. Mr. Pine
recommended that since this was a State Planning Board
job, the telegram be referred to Mr. Hancock of the
Planning Board for response.
B. Advance Planning, College of Education Building
President Miller noted that Dean Cain, Mr. Edward Pine,
and a special committee of the College of Education
faculty have met with Mr. Ferris of Ferris and Erskine,
A. I. A. He added that Mr. Pine and Dean Cain have
also met with Mr. Hancock, Manager of the State Plan-
ning Board. President Miller recommended that, in view
of the fact that these meetings resulted in satisfactory
understandings concerning advance planning for this
facility, including the use of special program con-
sultants, the previous staff recommendations be with-
drawn (see minutes of August 29-30, 1968) and the firm
of Ferris and Erskine be approved for advance planning
of this facility. Chancellor Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be
approved.
C. Mr. Pine presented a map outlining property in the Reno
area which had been the subject of a rezoning request
to the Regional Planning Commission. He stated that he
had appeared before the Commission on September 16 to
protest on behalf of the University this proposed
change.
Chancellor Humphrey noted that Mr. Pine's appearance
was in conformity with existing Board policy.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Dr. White, car-
ried without dissent that the Board go on record as
approving Mr. Pine's protest in this matter and that
it reaffirm its earlier position concerning changes
in zoning of property in the areas surrounding the UN
Campus.
D. Right of Way at Stead Campus
Mr. Pine noted that a 20-foot right of way has been
requested by Sierra Pacific Power Company at the Stead
Campus (NW 1/4, Section 32, T21NR19E), for a total
length of 1100 feet. The area will be used to construct
and maintain a 60 KVA power line to furnish power to
the Stead Campus and the Lear Enterprises.
President Miller and Chancellor Humphrey recommended
approval of the request for right of way.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the right of way be granted as
requested.
E. Proposed Names for Buildings at Stead Campus
Chancellor Humphrey recalled that at its July meeting,
the Board had received a proposal from President Miller
for the naming of buildings at the Stead Campus. Action
was deferred to permit time to review the proposed
names.
Chancellor Humphrey recommended that the proposed names
be approved as submitted except for those buildings
assigned to DRI. He requested that DRI present sugges-
tions for the buildings which they occupy.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be ap-
proved and the buildings at the Stead Campus be named
as follows:

13. Report of the Investment Advisory Committee Meeting of
August 30, 1968
Dr. Lombardi presented the minutes of the August 30 meeting
of the Investment Advisory Committee, as follows:
The Committee met at 12:00 Noon in the Hardy Room of the
Jot Travis Student Union. Present were: Chairman Louis
E. Lombardi, M. D.; Committee Members Thomas G. Bell,
Procter R. Hug, Jr., Mrs. Molly Knudtsen and Paul Mc
Dermott; Public Members Julius Bergen and Arthur M.
Smith, Jr. Also present were Fred M. Anderson, M. D.,
Mr. R. O. Kwapil, Mr. Walter D. Bradley, Consultant
Dr. Robert C. Weems, Jr. and Chancellor Humphrey.
Mr. Bradley discussed the Investment Review of the
University's portfolio which was distributed under date
of August 22, 1968. He recommended that the Treasury
Bills be turned over and the present liquidity of the
account maintained. Mr. Smith suggested that consider-
ation be given to the purchase of Time Certificates of
Deposit for 91 days at 5 1/2%. This matter was dis-
cussed at some length and it was finally agreed that it
would be best to keep this money in Treasury Bills at
this time.
Mr. Bradley reported that 600 plus-or-minus shares of
First Bank Corporation had been received as a usable
gift for the Performing Arts Project at Nevada Southern
University. Mr. Bradley recommended that this stock
be sold and the money reinvested in Treasury Bills and
held until needed. This was agreed to by the Committee.
Mr. Kwapil reported that the main floor of the Clay
Peters building had been leased to a restaurant opera-
tion for a gross rental of $30,000 per year for the
first year.
Mr. Kwapil reviewed the proposal of the Trust Department
of First National Bank of Nevada that the annual fee for
management of the Endowment Fund be increased from $1800
per year to $3000 per year. Chancellor Humphrey recom-
mended approval of this increase. It was agreed by the
Committee that the increase was reasonable and should
become effective on the anniversary date of the manage-
ment agreement.
Mr. Kwapil reported concerning the bequest from the
Alan Ladd Johnston estate. He estimated that the Uni-
versity of Nevada would be the recipient of approximate-
ly $665,000 when the estate is settled. It is noted
that this is a restricted endowment for scholarships.
Mr. Hug noted that we should be careful in bequests of
this type to make certain that we receive the benefit
of the tax credit. Mr. Humphrey noted that he was now
ready to involve the Attorney General's Office in re-
view of the Johnston bequest.
Mr. Humphrey reviewed the progress in the settlement
of the estate of Edith W. Albert of Des Moines, Iowa,
and noted that a formal request had been submitted by
the Attorney General's Office to the attorney for the
estate to have the Board of Regents designated as the
trustee in order that this estate might be settled.
The meeting adjourned at 1:05 P.M.
Submitted by Neil D. Humphrey, Chancellor
Investment Advisory Committee
Secretary
Chancellor Humphrey requested approval of the Committee's
recommendations.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the recommendations of the Investment
Advisory Committee be approved.
14. Resolution Authorizing Transfer of Stock
Chancellor Humphrey noted that the University of Nevada
System is frequently the recipient of gifts of stock which
are intended for the benefit of either or both Campuses of
the System. He stated that the Trust Department of the
First National Bank of Nevada, under its management agree-
ment with the University, has as its nominee Tahoe & Co.
When gift stock is issued in the name of the University,
it must be transferred to Tahoe & Co. and involves the
adoption of a formal resolution by the Board of Regents.
Chancellor Humphrey requested that the Board adopt a
"blanket" resolution which would permit the necessary
stock powers to be signed transferring all stock received
to Tahoe & Co.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the following resolution be adopted:
RESOLUTION #68-13
WHEREAS, the University of Nevada System frequently
receives gifts of stock for the benefit of either or
both of its Campuses; and
WHEREAS, this stock is frequently issued in the name
of the University of Nevada, Nevada Southern University,
Board of Regents, or some other title; and
WHEREAS, the First National Bank of Nevada, under its
management agreement with the University of Nevada,
uses as its nominee Tahoe & Co. and recommends that
all stock received by the University be transferred to
Tahoe & Co.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of
Regents of the University of Nevada System does hereby
authorize Chancellor Neil D. Humphrey to sign the
necessary stock powers to transfer all stock received
by the University of Nevada System, or by either of
its Campuses, to Tahoe & Co., the nominee of the Trust
Department of the First National Bank of Nevada;
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this authorization
shall remain in force until revoked by formal resolu-
tion by the Board of Regents of the University of
Nevada System.
15. Data Processing Center
Chancellor Humphrey stated that although he was not yet
ready to make a formal report back to the Board on the
Data Processing Center, he is at present exploring addi-
tional ways of obtaining information for the Board. He
said that he has received a proposal from an outside
consultant for a management study of the Data Processing
Center.
He requested Vice Chancellor Mordy to comment on the prog-
ress of the study of a Statewide Data Processing System.
Professor Mordy deferred to Dr. Squires who stated that
DRI has been seeking to appoint a group of 3 consultants
and hopes to be able to have a meeting of this group late
in October. Chancellor Humphrey pointed out that the con-
sultant groups referred to would not overlap in function
but their progress would, of course, be coordinated. He
added that he hoped to make an additional report to the
Regents at the November meeting.
16. Student Participation in University Affairs
Chairman Anderson Suggested that the Regents should be the
leader in discussions among students, faculty and Regents
concerning the amount of student participation in Univer-
sity affairs. He requested comments from President Miller
and Vice President Baepler concerning the amount of stu-
dent participation now present on their respective Campuses.
President Miller reviewed the procedure on the UN Campus
of appointing students to membership on Campus committees,
their involvement in the development of the 10-year plan
and his practice of regularly meeting with student groups.
Dr. Baepler stated that NSU students are involved some-
what now and there is evidence that this involvement will
grow.
Joe Bell, ASUN President, spoke of the students' interest
in participating in a teacher/course evaluation program.
In response to Dr. Anderson's suggestion that an ombudsman
be discussed, Dr. Miller agreed that it was a good idea.
Dr. Baepler expressed some concern, stating that he would
prefer the students work closely with the student person-
nel officers. Dr. Miller agreed with the importance of
students dealing with student affairs officers but noted
that an ombudsman sometimes becomes a "red tape cutter"
and therefore benefits the students.
Mr. Grant suggested a committee from each Campus be estab-
lished to study this matter further. Mr. Hug agreed and
suggested that student/faculty committees be appointed on
each Campus. Mr. Ronzone said that he would prefer the
students and faculty to have separate committees.
Dr. Miller expressed concern that the development of
separate recommendations by a faculty committee and by
a student committee would result in "position papers"
which would have to be reconciled. Dr. Baepler agreed,
adding that he would prefer to see coordinated recommenda-
tions come forwrd.
Chancellor Humphrey stated that it appeared the Administra-
tion now had the advantage of the thinking of the Board of
Regents and suggested that it would be appropriate that
committees be appointed, one for each Campus composed of
both faculty and students, and that the committees proceed
to develop criteria for expanded student participation.
By consensus, it was agreed that this would be the procedure
with reports from the committees to be presented to the
Board early in 1969.
17. Summer School Budgets
Chancellor Humphrey submitted a report which proposed a
request for State assistance for Summer School beginning
with the 1969 session. He stated that it is no longer
reasonable to ask the faculty to subsidize Summer programs
by working for lower salaries than they would ordinarily
earn for regular academic year teaching and recommended
that effective Summer 1969 the Summer School salaries be
upgraded proportionately with the proposed 1969-71 salary
schedule. (Complete report, including formula for deter-
mining individual salary for Summer School teaching and
budget request for subsidy filed with permanent minutes.)
President Miller and Vice President Baepler both expressed
support of the additional request to the State Legislature
and the increase in salaries as outlined in Chancellor
Humphrey's report.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the faculty salaries for Summer School
teaching be upgraded proportionately with the proposed
1969-71 salary schedule and a State appropriation be re-
quested to subsidize the Summer School programs on both
Campuses.
18. Enrollment Figures
Chancellor Humphrey noted that much attention had been
given in the Las Vegas and the Reno news media to the
enrollment figures on both Campuses and requested Presi-
dent Miller and Vice President Baepler to comment on
enrollment figures and various registration problems
encountered.
President Miller noted that the final enrollment figures
had not yet been received but noted that unofficial count
indicated that the regular enrollment is 5710 as compared
to 5081 in Fall 1967; special student enrollment is 477 as
compared to 418 in Fall 1967; the GUE enrollment of 456 as
compared to 637 in Fall 1967. He commented that the de-
crease in General University Extension was occasioned by
moving in the direction of eliminating evening division
and converting to extended day programs.
Chancellor Humphrey commented that the unofficial count
for UN regular enrollment was off by only 15 students from
the Chancellor's Office projections.
President Miller also reviewed the enrollment in Military
Science and Freshman English, in view of the changes made
by the Board concerning these two programs. He also noted
that many sections of English and History had been expanded
to accommodate increased numbers of students and the only
classes in which students were turned away were some labora-
tory classes where the number of work stations dictates the
enrollment.
Vice President Baepler reported that unofficial count of
regular students at NSU was 3645, compared to 2880 last
year; 793 special students compared to 890 last year; for
a total of 4438.
He reviewed the difficulties encountered at registration
in not being able to accommodate all students in the
classes they wished to take. He added that although many
students were not able to get the schedules they wished,
particularly in Biology, Mathematics and English, no stu-
dent was turned away from the University. He added that
if the budget request approved by the Board at its meeting
in August is funded by the State Legislature, it will permit
the addition of approximately 50 new faculty positions dur-
ing the first year of the biennium and almost that amount
again in the second year. He noted that the problem in the
next biennium would be lack of space rather than lack of
instructors.
19. Chancellor Humphrey reported that recommendations for the
13 sabbatical leaves authorized for 1969-70 will be brought
forward at the November meeting of the Board.
20. Progress Report on Question #2
Mr. Edward Olsen, Director of Information, UN, made a
progress report on the efforts to date in publicizing the
desirability of approval of Question #2 at the November
election.
The meeting adjourned at 5:30 P.M.

Saturday, October 5, in the Campus Student Union, Nevada Southern
University.

21. Chemistry Building, NSU
Vice President Baepler reported that final drawings of the
Chemistry building were complete and now ready for approval
by the Board of Regents. He recommended approval subject
to final plan checking by the State Planning Board.
Mr. Hancock, Manager of the State Planning Board, pointed
out that the budget estimate for the project was $1.376
million and the current estimated construction cost is
$1.4 million. He recommended that the equipment for the
Chemistry building be placed on an additive alternate, and
that the successful bidder be requested to hold the alter-
nate until the Legislature meets at which time more money
will be requested.
Chancellor Humphrey and Vice President Baepler concurred.
Motion by Dr. Lombardi, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the final plans for the Chemistry
building be approved subject to plan checking by the State
Planning Board and that the project be bid with the equip-
ment as an additive alternate as suggested by Mr. Hancock.
22. Performing Arts Center, NSU
Vice President Baepler commented on the continuing problems
encountered with the funding of the Performing Arts Center.
He pointed out that the funding for the project comes from
6 different sources: $207,000 from General Obligation
Bonds; $200,000 from Title I; $215,000 from the Capital
Improvement Fee Fund, NSU; $600,00 from private gifts;
$930,000 from NSU Revenue Bonds; and $500,000 from the
Fleischmann Foundation. He also noted that the private
gifts are available only over a 5-year period.
Chancellor Humphrey also noted the different cost estimates
which had been presented for this project over its 6-year
history, increasing from $1.3 million to $2.3 million, now
to $2,661,000.
Dr. Baepler spoke of the progress in revising the scope of
the project to bring it within the funds available and
recommended that the project be constructed in two phases;
Phase I to consist of a facility with a 600 seat drama
theatre, a 1500 seat music theatre and a scene shop; and
the second phase to include classrooms and offices.
Chancellor Humphrey concurred and recommended that the
State Planning Board be requested to proceed with prelim-
inary plans for Phase I to provide firm cost estimates,
allow the conversion of 5-year pledges to cash to be
finalized, the application to be submitted to the Federal
Government and a report made to the 1969 Legislature in
order that no question of legislative intent be unresolved.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried
without dissent that the State Planning Board be requested
to proceed with preliminary plans for Phase I as outlined
above.
23. Capital Improvement Program Request, 1969-71
Chancellor Humphrey reviewed the procedure used to arrive
at a University of Nevada System priority list for the
Capital Improvement Program Request for 1969-71. He re-
called that a priority list had been adopted last Spring,
but because of the HEAC report it has been revised. He
requested President Miller and Vice President Baepler to
comment on their Campus priority lists.
President Miller reviewed the list submitted for the Uni-
versity of Nevada (filed with permanent minutes).
Vice President Baepler also reviewed the list submitted for
Nevada Southern University (filed with permanent minutes).
Chancellor Humphrey then distributed a revised Capital
Improvement Program Request for the University of Nevada
System for 1969-71 together with a proposed method of
financing the projects contained on the list (both docu-
ments filed with permanent minutes). The request included
19 projects at a cost of $31,063,900.
Chancellor Humphrey noted that the priority list had been
developed by the Chancellor's Advisory Cabinet, composed
for that purpose of President Miller, Vice President
Baepler, Dr. Donald Driggs, Chairman of the UN Faculty
Senate, and Professor Roger Miller, Chairman of the NSU
Faculty Senate, and the list represented agreement by all
parties concerned. He recommended that the Regents re-
quest the entire list of 19 projects for funding in 1969,
noting that the list anticipates that if the complete
project list is funded, all projects will be ready for
occupancy by Fall, 1973. He commented that it was desir-
able that if any of the projects are not funded, additional
advance planning occur on those projects during the bien-
nium.
Mr. Hancock spoke of problems with the water lines on the
NSU Campus, stating that maintenance costs were high be-
cause of the amount of sand in the water lines and that
fire protection was inadequate. Further discussion reveal-
ed concern that this item, at a cost of approximately
$200,000 was too far down on the priority list and Mr.
Hancock recommended that the list be amended. Dr. Baepler
suggested amendment of item No. 11 of the System List by
adding $200,000 to include the water lines.
President Miller stated that he recognized the importance
of this project and expressed no opposition. Chancellor
Humphrey concurred.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried without
dissent that the complete list of 19 projects be approved
by the Board, as amended in item No. 11, and submitted to
the State Planning Board as the University's Capital Im-
provement Program Request for 1969-71 (amended list filed
with permanent minutes).
Dr. Lombardi left the meeting.
Mr. Mc Dermott asked the Chancellor to comment on the HEAC
report concerning the amount of square footage available on
the UN and NSU Campuses in relation to the amount required.
Chancellor Humphrey pointed out that the draft of the re-
port listed space in a variety of ways. He noted, for in-
stance, that the gross footage listed as available at the
UN did not take into consideration the planned demolition
of some buildings nor the obsolescence of others. He
further noted that there are a number of buildings on the
University of Nevada Campus which have large areas of
square footage but are totally unsuited for present day
use. He called attention to the report which accompanied
the System Capital Improvement Program Request and which
detailed the net adjusted square footage required at present
and reflected the remaining net ASF as each project on the
list is completed.
24. Resolution of Human Relations Council
President Miller referred to a resolution from the Human
Relations Council which had been included in the material
distributed with the Supplemental Agenda and also distribut-
ed a copy of his statement to Dr. Donald Driggs in response
to a similar resolution adopted by the UN Faculty Senate
(statement filed with permanent minutes). He pointed out
that his letter to Dr. Driggs contained a 10-point program
directed toward the correction of acts of discrimination
and in assuming the leadership within the University com-
munity in this area of human relations.
Dr. Anderson recommended that the Board of Regents go on
record as approving the 10-point program contained in
President Miller's letter with the addition of the follow-
ing statement:
The Board of Regents reaffirms its policy of opposi-
tion to segregation and to any act of discrimination
based on race, color or creed and instructs the Ad-
ministration to take appropriate action wherever
indicated.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, carried with-
out dissent that the program as outlined be adopted with
the addition of the paragraph suggested by Dr. Anderson.
Dr. White suggested the specific inclusion of graduate
level students in this 10-point program. Dr. Miller
stated that the program was intended to cover all under-
graduate and graduate students within the University but
agreed to so specify in the statement.
The meeting adjourned at 11:45 A.M.
