Cancer Center. The Board of Directors of the Cancer Center
has now agreed to transfer title of this equipment to the
University.
President Armstrong also read a letter from Mr. George K.
Folsom to Mr. Procter Hug, Jr. in which he advised the
Regents of a gift of ten shares of Hart, Schaffner & Marx

Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mrs. Magee, carried without
dissent that the above budget transfers be approved.
10. Increase in Student Accident Insurance Rate, Reno Campus
President Armstrong presented a recommendation from Dean
Basta and Chancellor Miller that the student accident insur-
ance rate be increased from $3.50 per semester to $4.15 per
semester effective with the Spring semester of 1968. It was
pointed out that this request for an increase came original-
ly from Mr. Leon Stanley, Agent for Mutual of Omaha because:
(a) The premium of $3.50 per semester has been in effect
since 1960;
(b) The loss ratio has consistently been at 92-96% for
the past three years;
(c) Nevada Southern has withdrawn from the plan, thereby
increasing the risk level;
(d) Higher medical and hospital costs.
Motion by Mr. Mc Dermott, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
without dissent that the above recommendation be approved.
11. Discussion with Consultants on Possible University Adminis-
trative Reorganization
President Armstrong introduced Mrs. Sam Johnson, Chairman of
the Academic Affairs Committee of the Oregon Board of Higher
Education, and Dr. Arthur Browne, Associate Director of the
Illinois State Board of Higher Education, who were in Reno
at the invitation of the Board as consultants on the study
of the Central Administration of the University of Nevada.
Mrs. Johnson and Dr. Browne spoke at some length on the
experiences of their respective systems and responded to
questions from the Board of Regents. Both Mrs. Johnson and
Dr. Browne stressed the necessity, in their opinions, for
maintaining a statewide system with controls and guidelines.
Following the exchange of ideas between the Board and the
Consultants, Dr. White moved that the study be continued and
that two additional faculty representatives from each Campus
be asked to participate in the next meeting of the Ad Hoc
Committee. Mrs. Magee seconded the motion, adding that
these faculty members should represent faculty viewpoint
rather than individual viewpoint. Motion carried unani-
mously.
Further discussion resulted in consensus by the Board that
the Ad Hoc Committee should be requested to make recommen-
dations to the Board concerning administrative organization
and that alternative recommendations would also be helpful.
12. Appointment of an Acting President
President Armstrong asked for discussion on whether or not
the Regents wished to appoint an interim Administrative
Officer effective with President Armstrong's resignation on
October 31.
Motion by Mrs. Magee, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
without dissent that the Regents attempt to arrive at a
selection of an Acting President to be employed as of
November 1, 1967 to provide leadership and guidance to the
University of Nevada System until such time as other
arrangements might be indicated.
13. Presentation of College of Education Program and Facilities
Planning Study
Dean Cain presented slides and material prepared for the
purpose of familiarizing the Regents with the purpose and
extent of a Planning Study which has just been completed
concerning future growth and development and facility needs
of the College of Education. The study presented in 2 vol-
umes was prepared by David-Mac Connell-Ralston, Inc. in
cooperation with College of Education faculty, other Uni-
versity of Nevada Departments, including the Library, Audio-
Visual, etc., and State and local public school personnel.
The first volume includes a review of trends in teacher
preparation, a review of and analysis of the instructional
programs currently being implemented, recommendation for
its modification and improvement, and projections of en-
rollment, thereby producing a rationale for meeting Nevada's
needs for properly prepared teachers. Volume 2 contains a
description, in the form of educational specifications of
the kind of facility required to immediately implement the
recommended program.
Following Dean Cain's presentation, Chancellor Moyer spoke
of the serious problem existing now in the College of Edu-
cation and requested acceptance of the Study Report by the
Regents. President Armstrong endorsed Chancellor Miller's
request and recommended that the Board approve the report
in principle, and agree that the needs for a facility for
the College of Education will be placed high on the list
of priorities, and that the Board further instruct the
staff to continue to investigate various methods of funding
such a facility.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Seeliger, carried
unanimously that President Armstrong's recommendation be
approved and that the matter be referred to a joint meeting
of the Educational Policies Committee and the Plant and
Property Committee as soon as staff work concerning imple-
mentation of the study recommendations, cost projections,
timetables, site locations and possible sources of funding,
has advances to the point where further discussion with the
Regents is desirable.
14. The Board adjourned for lunch followed by a Personnel
Session to hear the report of the National Advisory Board
to Desert Research Institute, reconvening into regular
session at approximately 2:00 P.M.
15. Security Disclaimer for Regent Paul Mc Dermott
Upon motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Ronzone, the
following resolution was adopted:
RESOLUTION
I, Charles Armstrong, President of the University of Nevada,
a non-profit organization, do hereby certify that the fol-
lowing is a true and correct copy of a resolution adopted
at a meeting of the Board of Regents of said corporation at
a meeting held on October 14, 1967, at which meeting a
quorum was present and acting throughout and said resolu-
tion has not been modified, amended or rescinded:
RESOLVED, that the following Regent who is a citizen of the
United States will not require, nor will have, and can be
effectively denied, access to classified information in the
possession of the organization and does not occupy a posi-
tion that would enable him to affect adversely the organiza-
tion's policies or practices in the performance of contracts
for the Government:
PAUL MC DERMOTT
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and the seal
of said corporation, the 14th day of October 1967.
Charles J. Armstrong
President
University of Nevada
16. Requirements for Special Legislation
President Armstrong presented copies of correspondence be-
ween Vice President Humphrey and Mr. William Hancock which
outlines the need for inclusion on the Special Legislative
Session agenda for legislation relating to the Chemistry
building and Performing Arts project. President Armstrong
recommended approval of a University request to the Governor
to include consideration of the necessary legislation on his
call for the Special Session.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
without dissent that such a request of the Governor be
forwarded by the University Administration.
17. Agreement between University of Nevada and State Planning
Board Concerning NSU Chemistry Building
Vice President Humphrey submitted a proposed agreement
between the State Planning Board and the Board of Regents
which, when executed, would enable the Planning Board to
proceed with the NSU Chemistry building.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried without
dissent that the proposed agreement be approved and the
President authorized to sign on behalf of the University.
18. Further Discussion on Study of Administrative Reorganization
It was suggested that in line with earlier action to invite
the faculty members of the Ad Hoc Committee on Administra-
tive Reorganization to attend the next meeting of the Board,
it might also be appropriate to invite the Presidents of the
Campus student bodies.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mrs. Magee, carried unani-
mously that such an invitation be issued.
There was further discussion concerning Regents-Students
communication with Dr. Anderson and Mr. Seeliger both read-
ing for the Board letters written to or received from cer-
tain student groups. The letters contained an expression of
concern over what the students felt was a lack of communi-
cation concerning the Regents action on ROTC. As an exten-
sion of this discussion, Dr. Anderson read a telegram
received from a representative of the CSNS requesting delay
of the decision by the Regents concerning ROTC at NSU until
the NSU faculty has completed its studies. Chancellor Moyer
expanded on this by discussing a communication from an NSU
faculty committee, appointed to study the possibility of
ROTC at NSU, setting forth its progress to date. It was the
consensus after discussion with Chancellor Moyer that a
further report should be made in about two months.
19. Traffic Control on North Virginia Street, Reno
Mr. Pine's written progress report on this matter reads as
follows:
Mr. Pine had continued attending meetings with the Urban
Transportation Committee and Washoe County Officials. Reno
and Sparks has submitted changes in street alignments and
traffic directions which are being considered; however, no
change in street layout near the University has been made
and no decision has been made concerning North Virginia.
Mr. Pine requested that the extension of Oddie Boulevard to
North Virginia be scheduled earlier than now planned in
order to alleviate cross-campus traffic problems. A more
complete report can be made in November.

ed and a contract awarded.
22. Agreement for Services with Burrows, Smith and Company
Mr. Humphrey reviewed for the Board two previous occasions
when Burrows, Smith & Co. of Salt Lake City had served as
financial consultants to the University on public revenue
bond issues. Mr. Humphrey recommended that the University
contract with Burrows, Smith & Co. on an annual basis for
their services with payment depending upon each individual
bond issue handled. He proposed that the contract period
be for one year with provision for annual renewal and
indicated that during any year that the University did not
sell a bond issue there would be no payment to Burrows,
Smith and Co., but they would still be available in prepar-
ing new issues. He further proposed that the fee for the
next project, the NSU Chemistry building, be set at one
percent of the bonds issued.
Motion by Mr. Grant, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried by
roll call vote that an annual contract with Burrows, Smith &
Co., along the lines proposed by Mr. Humphrey, be approved
and Administration be authorized to sign such a contract.

School, Clark County
Chancellor Moyer requested approval in principle of the
location of the proposed $3 million Clark County-Research-
Experimental School on 25 acres in the southwest corner of
the NSU section of land. Chancellor Moyer pointed out that
the decision as to the exact 25 acres has not yet been made
but the NSU Land Foundation now owns or has options on all
of the land in the vicinity of the site and determination
could be made in the near future.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Mr. Mc Dermott, carried
without dissent that the approval in principle be given for
the location of this proposed school on 25 acres in the
southwest corner of the NSU section of land with recommenda-
tion of the exact location made to the Board as soon as the
details are formed.
24. NSU Faculty Senate Action on Patent Policy
President Armstrong reviewed for the Board their action at
their meeting on July 8 in adopting a patent policy for the
Reno Campus, at which time they requested the NSU faculty to
come forward with a recommendation concerning the policy at
an early date. Chancellor Moyer indicated that the faculty
at NSU has now approved this policy and it is now ready for
consideration by the Board for adoption for NSU.
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried without
dissent that the Patent Policy as adopted for the Reno
Campus on July 8 now be approved as a policy for NSU.
25. Sabbatical Leave Policy Revisions
President Armstrong reviewed for the Board his request last
year that the two Chancellors undertake a review of existing
University policy governing sabbatical leaves. As a result,
a recommendation was made that a change be made in the pres-
ent system of priorities for sabbatical leave policy; spe-
cifically that order of priority of type of proposed proj-
ects for sabbatical leave be changed so that the present #4
(projects which primarily involve research in residence at
the University of Nevada) be designated #5 and the present
#5 projects which center in a study of training program in
business, industry or government) be designated #4. Pres-
ident Armstrong indicated that this recommendation has now
been approved by both faculties and recommended that it now
be approved by the Board.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Dr. Lombardi, carried
without dissent that the order of priority of type of pro-
posed projects for sabbatical leave be changed as recom-
mended.
26. Report of Development Committee Meeting of October 13, 1967
Mr. Ronzone verbally reported on the meeting of the Develop-
ment Committee which had been held on October 13, 1967 and
presented the following action of the Committee:
Motion by Dr. White, seconded by Mr. Grant, carried without
dissent that the Committee recommend that the Board of
Regents reaffirm its position in regard to the establishment
for the Reno Campus.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Mr. Hug, carried unani-
mously that the action of the Committee become the action
of the Board.
27. Chairman Anderson reminded the Board of scheduled seminar
on educational television and data retrieval and urged them
all to make every effort to attend. The seminar will be
held on the Reno Campus on November 10.
28. Resolution of Appreciation for Mr. Arthur M. Smith, Jr.
Motion by Mr. Jacobsen, seconded by Dr. White, carried
unanimously that the following resolution be adopted:
WHEREAS, Arthur M. Smith, Jr. had served during the past six
months, from April 8, 1967 following appointment by the
Governor of the State of Nevada to September 11, 1967 as a
member of the Board of Regents of the University; and
WHEREAS, during this time he has freely devoted time and
attention to this important responsibility; and
WHEREAS, he has given conscientiously of this advice and
counsel on a number of committees of the Board of Regents;
and
WHEREAS, he has now found it necessary to resign as a member
of this Board,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Regents of
the University hereby express to Mr. Arthur M. Smith, Jr.
its deep regret at the loss of his services and its sincere
appreciation for the admirable way in which he has discharg-
ed his responsibility as a Regent of the University of
Nevada.
Given at Reno, Nevada this fourteenth day of October, 1967.
29. Resolution of Appreciation for Mr. Grant Davis
Through researching the minutes of the Board, it has become
apparent that although the Regents discussed the adoption of
a resolution of appreciation for Mr. Grant Davis at the end
of his term of office in 1966, this action was never taken.
Motion by Mr. Ronzone, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried
unanimously that such a resolution be drafted and presented
to the Board at its next meeting for adoption.
30. Status Report on Study of Special Students
President Armstrong reviewed the special student matter
which originated back in 1965 when the University Council
recommended that "Special students who have previously
attended the University and who are minus grade points
shall be placed on probation with future registration
subject to new scholastic regulations instituted during
the Fall semester, 1963. This rule is to be effective
as of September 1, 1965."
The above action was submitted to the faculty for a vote and
upon receiving a majority of affirmative votes was submitted
to the Board with a recommendation for approval. However,
because there was also a very high negative vote cast on
this ballot, this matter was referred by the Board to its
Educational Policies Committee which after discussing the
matter at 2 separate meetings, requested the Chancellors to
refer this matter back to their faculties for further study.
President Armstrong indicated that this matter is now
scheduled to be discussed by the Coordinating Council at its
meeting in October and a recommendation will come forward to
the Board at a later meeting.
31. Miscellaneous
President Armstrong read a letter from Dr. Effie Mona Mack
expressing appreciation for the flowers sent her by the
President and members of the Board of Regents during her
recent hospital confinement.
32. Expression of Appreciation for President Armstrong
Dr. Lombardi urged that an expression of appreciation be
prepared for President Armstrong for his service during the
past nine years to the University of Nevada and to the State
and its students.
33. Nevada Community College
Mr. Seeliger read a letter from Mr. Burnell Larson concern-
ing the progress of the Nevada Community College. Mr.
Seeliger indicated that a Committee has been appointed by
the Governor and a site visit to Elko is planned for early
in November. Mr. Hug suggested that the Board of Regents
hear a report from Mr. Seeliger, who is a member of the
Committee, at its next meeting and, in the meantime, re-
affirm its position of willingness to assist in the devel-
opment of Nevada Community College through the University's
General University Extension.
Motion by Mr. Hug, seconded by Mr. Jacobsen, carried without
dissent that the November meeting provide time for a discus-
sion of our relations with Nevada Community College, that
the discussion include a report from the Dean of General
University Extension and in the meantime obtain an opinion
from the Attorney General regarding the University's
responsibility for a Community College Program.
34. The meeting adjourned at 3:00 P.M. with a reminder that the
next regular meeting of the Board is scheduled for November
11, 1967 in Reno.
