The present requirement for membership is as follows:

"Student members at the time of entrance to the Board
shall be at least juniors, have an accumulative standing
of 1.5. and must have shown interest through some work
in connection with the Student Union Board and its
activities."

The effect of the proposed amendment would. therefore. be to
Open membership to sophomomw and to eliminate the requirement that

the member must have served apprenticeship in the Board”s activities.

This recommendation was approved by the University Faculty.

Dean Carpenter offered a motion that the University Faculty rescind the
Rule governing "credit for the grade of E" appearing on page 8, line 1Q, of

the Rules of the University Faculty. After some discussion Dean White

offered the fOIIOWing substitute motion which was approved by the University

FaCL‘L]. hive

"A grade of E means that normally the work must be taken over
in class to be credited. Exceptions to this rule may be made, on

showing of undue hardship, but only to the extent of permitting the

work to be taken over by correspondence, and only with the permis-
sion of the dean of the College in which the student is enrolled.

and will be made sparingly, it being the policy not to allow credit

toward a degree for correspondence work in courses in which the
student has received a grade of E and which he can repeat or could
have repeated in class while in residencco"

President Donovan commented on the place of the Concert Series in the
community and the contribution that it was making to Lexington and surrounding

towns.

President Donoan outlined briefly the University‘s building program
and discussed some of the difficulties that had delayed the program. He
stressed the need for more dormitories, particularly for women, and listed

other buildings that were on the agenda for the future.
