The University FaCulty met in the President's Office Friday, May 8,
1942, with President Donovan presiding. Those attending were Jesse E. Adams,
Paul P. Boyd, Thomas P. Cooper, Alvin E. Evans. J. H. Graham, Henry H. Hill,
C. C. Ross, and Edward Wiest.

The minutes of April 24 were read and approved.

Dean Evans presented for the College of Law a revised statement of
the courses of this college as they are to be offered under the quarter
system. By action of the Faculty, this revised list of courses is substi-
tuted for the one submitted at the previous meeting, and is made a part of
these minutes by reference to the files of the Registrar's Office.

The petition of Dr. George H. Ray. asking that he be granted the 00m-
bined degree in artsemedicine, was approved, with the understanding that 10.7
credits in the sciences and mathematics be substituted for a 9 semester hour
deficiency in German. Dr. Bay had left the University in 1925. Subsequently
he had entered the University of Louisville Medical School and had graduated
from that institution.

0n recommendation of the College of Arts and Sciences, the petition of
Jack B. Baker was approved. This petition asked that he be allowed to sub-
stitute a course in English literature for 3 semester hours of deficiency in
foreign language. At the close of this semester Mr. Baker will have com?
pleted 132.3 semester hours, and will have satisfied all requirements for
graduation except the previously mentioned deficiency in foreign language.

Dean Cooper presented to the Faculty the following recommendation
from the College of Agriculture and Home Economics:

It is recommended that under Section III on Page 9 of the mimeor
graphed copy of the rules of the University Faculty, paragraph 2,
be eliminated and the following substitution made;

College of Agriculture and Home Economics. In addition to meeting
the generalflrequirements for admission to the University, the high
school units presented by the applicant shall include 1 unit in algebra
and 1 unit in plane geometry.

After considerable discussion of this recommendation and its relation to the
recently adopted admission regulations, Dean Cooper asked that he be permitted
to withdraw the recommendation and return it to the Faculty of the College of
Agriculture and Home Economics for further consideration.

The following recommendations from.the College of Arts and Sciences

Minutes of the University Faculty " May 8, 1942.

University of Kentucky
College of Arts & Sciences m

May 7. 1942

*mM-fim—W

At its meeting on April 28, the Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences
recommended the following:

1.

Anthropology and ArchaeolOgy 107. Ethnology 2: the New World.
3 recitations a week. 2 quarter hours. A study of the origins and
migrations of the ethnological groups of the new world.

 

This is an expansion of Arch. & Anth. 105 and 106 into a third quar-
ter's work.

 

Psychology 126. Mental Hygiene. 3 quarter hours. A continuation (fil‘
of Psychology 124, Students are given the opportunity to apply to 2 ’
to concrete cases the principles and concepts developed in 124.
Prerequisites; Psychology 124 or Hygiene 120a. It will be noticed

that this is the same description found in the catalog under Hygiene

120b, except that the prerequisite has been added.

Report 2f Committee on Classification.

 

 

Since the quarter system not only requires students to register and
classify three times in the academic year, but also permits fewer
days in which to do the work, the following reCOmmendations are
made, and in so far as they involve all University students, it

is recommended to the University faCulty the adOption of these
principles:

(1) In so far as possible a preeclassification and pres
counselling program be adopted for all students. «“5.

(2) The preeclassification program should include as a minis 2
mum the following;

a. Students should be assigned to specific advisers
before the opening date of school. The students
should be required to see the adviser and with his
help make out a schedule of classes. &

b. The adviser should sign and keep the classification cards.

c. Before registration day the adviser should return
the classification cards to the Dean's office,
where they will be alphabetized and arranged accord” '
ing to classes (freshmen, sophomores, etc.) 6“

d. On classification day. each student will be exoected
to go to the Dean‘s booth, get his classification
cards, and take them to the Various departments for
assignment to particular sections.

All students should be classified according to some prc~
determined alphabetiCBl arrangement. In the past fresh~
men have registered alphabetically. but have not been re-
quired to resort for classification in any orderly way.

All changes in schedule, exceot those involving changes
in hours” should be approved by the student95 adviser.
This will require that the adviser keep a cony of the stu—
dent‘s schedule card.

Each student should consult his adviser before dropping a
coursec

It is suggested that, in so far as possible, all depart»
ments assign students to specific sections before classia
fication day. This can be accomplished if the Dean‘s ofe
fice turns the classification cards over to a particular
department for a limited time before classification day.
Such a orocedure will serve as an incentive for students
to see their advisers early in order to get into the sec"
tions of their choice, and will enable the advisers to
devote more attention to students.

It is further suggested that, in so far as possible, the
academic program be made out for the entire three quarters.
The publication of the schedule for the three quarters
will make this possible in many instanceso In these cases.
the adviser will nd2turn in the schedules but for one
quarter at a timeo

4. Recommendation of Committee on Scholgrsh'p.

reference was made to the c0urses to be offered as residence work at Pike~
ville and Harlan during the coming summer, and the issue was raised as to ,
whether it might not be desirable to allow a minimum amount of graduate credit
by extension. No action was taken on this matter, as it appeared desirable

to await the return of Dean Funkhouser before considering the question of
graduate credit by extension" It was pointed out that any courses could

be offered by extension in another community, but that graduete credit

could not be allowed under present rulesl

graduate students might receive credit. In the discussion of this matter, fig.
