Dr, Nicholle” accomplishments were numberous and varied. He
was an exemplary parent, a succeSSful farmer, an economist of inter—
national repute. and an author of many publications. In addition,
he found time for church and community services. He was a member
of the official board of the Maxwell Street Presbyterian Church
and a member of the Fayette County Board of Education. His interest

‘ in general education is attested by his sponsorship of the Kentucky
School Boards Association and by that Association which made the
following statement upon his retirement as President. "He worked
faithfully and achieved greatly fOr the public schools and community
welfare. The children of Kentucky owe him everlasting gratitude."
He was a member of the American Economic Association, the Kentucky
Academy of Social Science, the American Farm Economic Association,

E The University of Kentucky Research Club, and the Rural Sociology

j Society of America. He was one of the early leading social scien—

’ tists in America in the field of farm management, helping to organize

the subject as an applied science.

A His contributions to mankind are listed in American Men of Science.
f Who‘s Who in American Education, and Who's Who in America.

t-
R Dr. Nicholle“ loyalty to the University, to the public school
‘5' system, and to the American way of life was inspiring. He was a

n 5 . tireless worker, a good administrator and a faithful friend. Some

of the outstanding agricultural economists of the world were trained
by him during his forty years of University service.

Now, whereas it has pleased Almighty God to remove him from our
midst, be it resolved that this memorial be spread upon the Minutes
Books of the faculty, and of the Board of Trustees of the University
of Kentucky and that a copy be sent to Mrs. Nicholle.

The University Faculty voted approval of the proposed changes. i

Dr. Tuthill also presented a recommendation from the Rules Committee
that the University Faculty be enlarged by doubling the number of elected
members. After some discussion the Faculty apprOVed the recommendation
as follows:

By a motion duly moved, seconded and passed by the University
Faculty at its meeting of October 8, 1951, the Rules Committee was
requested to re—study the distribution of membership according to

ﬂiputes gi the University Faculty, October 1 , 1252

the existing "Governing Regulations of the University Faculty"
(Page 8, paragraph 2, lines 3 and 4). This the Committee has
done.

On June 2, 1952 the Rules Committee received a letter from
the President of the Kentucky Chapter of the A.A.U.P., presenting
a resolution adopted by the Chapter on May 23. This resolution is
as follows:

"The Chapter urges upon the proper University authorities
the desirability of reorganizing the Faculty by making all
full professors members of that body by virtue of their
position. The present representative system should be
retained, except that full professors, like other ex-
officio members, should be excluded from participation

in the elections as candidates or voters."

The present Rules Committee is convinced that the reconstitution
of the University Faculty called for in the A.A.U.P. resolution is in—
appropriate at the present time. The Committee does believe that a re—
distribution and numerical enlargement of the University Faculty might
add vitality, as well as more accurate apportionment, to the present
group. However, the Committee holds to the theory of duly elected
representation as a more adequate methodology than membership by virtue
of full professorial rank. Thus, the position of the Rules Committee is
substantially that taken by the Committee of Fifteen after long months
of study. and which has the formal approval of the Board of Trustees.

Therefore, the Rules Committee will present and move the adoption
of the following changes at the meeting of the University Faculty:

1. that the elected membership from the combined faculties
of the University be increased from the present thirty-
nine (39) to seventy-eight (78):

2. that the number of representatives for divisions and/or
colleges be remapportioned according to the chart below.
which is based upon the number of active permanent per—
sonnel of professorial rank as of March, 1952:

Pres.No. of Pres.No. of % of No. of Rep.

Repres. Prof.Rank Fae. Suggested

3. that within the College of Arts and Sciences. if any
department has not been represented for three successive
years. that department must be represented the following

year by the election of one of its members:

culture and Home Economics

tion to organize a club to be known as the Physical Education Majors Club.
Both organizations were approved by the UniverSity Faculty.

Dean Spivey called attention to an error in the minutes of the Board
of Trustees in which the degree of Doctor of Engineering was reported as
Doctor of PhilOsOphy. President Donovan stated that a correction would
be made at the next meeting of the Board of Trustees.

President Donovan spoke briefly concerning the present trend in enroll-
ment at the University. He announced that the freshman class was larger than
last year and included one hundred thirty—two (132) veterans of the Korean War.
He expressed confidence that the enrollment would increase in the future unless
there should be an allmout War. He urged the members of the Faculty to use every
' care to report promptly on the attendance of the Korean veterans since failure
to do this might be costly to the University.
