"It is with the deepest regret and feeling of loss that the faculty of the School of Music reports the death on August 3' 1962 of one of its members, Stacey L.

Mr. Green joined the faculty of the School of Music of the University of Oregon in 1944 after a number of years of academic as well as professional experience.

"Mr. Green was an accomplished pianist, appearing as soloist and accompanist on many occasions both on and off the Eugene campus. Students and faculty admired his ability as a teacher. His lively musical interests extended beyond the limits of the classroom and the campus, for he was engaged in a number of musical activities both in the local community and in the state, where his leadership was highly valued and appreciated.

"To his colleagues he was always a man of highest integrity whose advice and encouragement were freely sought and given. His friendly and sympathetic counsel was held in high regard by everyone who knew him."

At Mr. Cykler's request, President Flemming instructed the secretary to incorporate the memorial in the minutes of the faculty and to send a copy to Mr. Green's family.

STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. President Flemming reported that, at its last meeting, the Oregon State Board of Higher Education adopted a set of guide-lines or objectives for the future development of the Oregon State System of Higher Education; he stated that copies of this document will be distributed to members of the faculty, and that comments from faculty members will be welcome. He also reported that work is under way, with the cooperation of the President's Staff and the faculty Advisory Council, on the draft of a statement of objectives for the University of Oregon, complementing the Board statement. When the draft is completed, the Faculty Senate and the faculty will be asked to review

the statement and make suggestions for changes. In its final form, the statement will be presented to the Board of Higher Education.

The President called attention to the establishment, during the summer, of the Office of Planning and Institutional Research and the appointment of Mr. J. E. Lallas as direetor. He stated that this office, which is responsible to the Dean of Faeulties, will institute a program of long-range planning for the University and, in its work, will keep in close touch with representative faculty groups.

The President outlined the major features of the biennial budget of the State System which has been submitted to the Governor for transmission to the 1963 Legislature, with partieular referenee to budget proposals for the support and development of the University.

The State System, the President reported, will not wait for the implementation of the Sullivan Report on the proposed Portland graduate eenter, eopies of which have been distributed to the faeulty, but has already begun work on plans for development and extension of graduate work in the State System, through a Coordinating Council for Graduate Work, established during the summer with Mr. M. C. Romney, University professor of education, as executive officer for the current year. He stated that he would be glad to meet with members of the faculty, at any convenient time, for the discussion of the recommendations of the Sullivan Report.

George N. Belknap Secretary of the Faculty REGULAR MEETING OF THE FACULTY November 14, 1962

The meeting was called to order by President Flemming. The minutes of the meeting of October 3, 1962 were read. Under "State of the University," the minutes included the sentence: "When the draft (of a statement of objectives for the University) is completed, the Faculty Senate will be asked to review the statement and make suggestions for changes." The President indicated that it was his intention to submit the statement also to the faculty for review and suggestions. The secretary having added the words "and the faculty" following "the Faculty Senate," the minutes were approved.

ELECTION OF MUSIC REPRESENTATIVE ON FACULTY SENATE. The secretary reported that he had been informed that the minor faculty of the School of Music has elected Mr. John Gustafson as a member of the Faculty Senate, to succeed Mr. Homer Keller, who has resigned as a Senate member.

REPORT OF ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS COMMITTEE. Mr. S. B. Greenfield, chairman of the Academic Requirements Committee, called attention to a report of his committee, dated November 10, 1962, copies of which had been mailed to members of the faculty. The report stated that "The present committee . . . will adopt the position that transfer students should be allowed group-requirement clearance for sequence courses taken at their previous institutions, even when such courses are not exactly equivalent to our courses, or even when such courses are not offered here as group-satisfying courses, provided that those courses are 'broadly foundational' for the disciplines involved, or 'lay the foundation for specialized study,' in the institutions previously attended." A copy of the report is filed in the office of the secretary of the faculty as a part of these minutes.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON DISCLAIMER AFFIDAVIT. Mr. R. D. Clark, chairman of the ad hoc Committee on the Disclaimer Affidavit, presented a report on the efforts of his committee to secure the repeal of the disclaimer-affidavit requirements of the National Defense Education Act and the National Science Foundation Act. A copy of the report is filed in the office of the secretary of the faculty as a part of these minutes. Mr. Clark pointed out that this would be the final report of the committee, under its instructions from the faculty, since the affidavit requirements have now been eliminated by Act of Congress. In conclusion, he stated that the committee has finished its work "with a sense of incompletion and disappointment. In the first place, the provisions substituted for the Disclaimer Affidavit suggest that the representatives of the public still look upon the academic community with a deep suspicion of its loyalty; and, second, the academic community's lack of concern for its own freedom, its timidity of expression, or the absence of an agency for united expression constitute cause for alarm. The committee therefore recommends that the whole matter of Federal aid and academic freedom be referred to the Faculty Senate for study and recommendation, with the possibility that the faculty ask the President to appoint a standing committee to consider such problems." On motion by Mr. Clark, the faculty voted to refer the report, with its recommendation, to the Faculty Senate.

President Flemming expressed his appreciation of the leadership of the University of Oregon faculty and its committee in efforts to obtain the repeal of the disclaimer-affidavit provisions, and stated that he concurred in the conclusion of the committee that, on this issue, the academic community, nation-wide, failed to support its ideals with vigorous action.

ADVISORY COUNCIL REPORT. Mr. C. E. Johnson, chairman of the Advisory Council, stated that the regular fall-term report of the Council will be distributed to the faculty in the near future and asked that it be placed on the agenda for discussion at the December meeting.

President Flemming stated that a draft of a statement on policy and procedures for promotion and tenure will also be distributed to the faculty in the near future, and requested that the secretary also place this document on the agenda for discussion at the December meeting.

JAMES R. JEWELL MEMORIAL. The faculty rose while Mr. P. B. Jacobson presented the following memorial, on behalf of the faculty of the School of Education:

"In the passing of former Dean J. R. Jewell of the School of Education, we are reminded of the words of Henry Brooks Adams: 'A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.' These words could be said more truly of Dean Jewell than of most. For his was a singular ability to discern in you~g people unsuspected potentialities and to quicken in them a lively interest in achieving their best. In the continuing achievements of literally thousands of productive, sometimes eminent, citizens of our land, who, in their formative years, come under Dean Jewell's influence, the remembrance of Dean Jewell shall not be lost.

"Brooks Hays, former student of Dean Jewell's, one-time Congressionai leader, and presently special assistant to President Kennedy, comments: 'I was grieved to learn of Dean Jewell's passing. He was a much beloved teacher and leader in Arkansas and a warm friend of mine. He-made a lasting impact on the educational structure of Arkansas, although he was with us less than twenty years. We are deeply in his debt.'

i'Senator Fullbright, another former student of Dean Jewell's, writes: 'I knew Dean Jewell well, and over a long period of time. He was a fine man; and a dedicated teacher, and he will be long remembered for his great contribution to the field of education. He will be sorely missed. My life was enricted by my association with Dean Jewell while I was a student, and I know that in his long professional career that many thousands of students and co-workers in education profited greatly from their association with him.'

"Dean Jewell was graduated in 1903 from Coe College, an institution founded by his grandfather Coe. He continued his preparation under G. Stanley Hall at Clark, receiving the M.A. degree in 1904 and the Ph.D. degree in 1906. Ris first position was as director of training at Southwest Louisiana Industrial Institute in 1906-07. In 1907 he became professor of education at Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia, Kansas, and in 1909 state high-school visitor in Kansas. In 1913 Dean Jewell was named dean of the School of Education at the University of Arkansas, where he served until 1927 when he was named Dean of Vocational Education at the Oregon State College.

"In 1932, with the creation of a unified State System of Higher Education in Oregon, Dr. Jewell became Dean of Education and Director of High-School Teacher Training in the State System. He continued in this position until 1947 when he retired from the State System. He then moved to San Antonio, 3:exas, where he was instrumental in organizing and establishing a graduate School of Education at Trinity University.

"Dean Jewell returned to Eugene in 1952. Here he continued, with undiminished vigor, his lifelong pursuit of learning and understanding. One of the enduring memories of those colleagues who knew Dean Jewell best will be of his seemingly insatiable appetite for books in wideranging fields. Possessed of a photographic memory, and a boun41ess energy that waned but little in his later years, Dean Jewell continued a strenuous regimen of reading and study up until the time of his death in September, 1962, at the age of 84.

.

"We, his colleagues at the University of Oregon, desire that it be here recorded that in the passing of Dean Jewell the state of Oregon has lost one of its great benefactors, the University community a distinguished leader, and we his colleagues an inspiring and loved confrere."

At Mr. Jacobson's request, President Flemming instructed the secretary to incorporate the memorial in the minutes of the faculty and to send a copy to Mr. Jewellts family.

STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. President Flemming stated that a scheduled meeting with interested faculty members for the discussion of the Sullivan Report on the proposed Portland graduate center has been postponed because of Mr. Harry Alpert's recent illness. Another date will be set in the near future, when Mr. Alpert returns to the campus. The President also stated that he plans to schedule another meeting with members of the faculty for the discussion of the Lackey Report on a long-term campus plan for the University and on plans for buildings recommended to the State Board of Higher Education for construction during the next biennium.

Recommendations from the Governor in regard to the biennial budget requests of the State Board, the President reported, is expected on or before December 1. He added that he is very much impressed with the vigorous work in support of the budgetary program of the State System by the Chancellor and the president of the State Board.

In conclusion, the President reported that the University of Oregon development Fund expects to attain its 1962 goal of $100,000 in gifts for; the support of current needs of the University; total 1962 gifts to date total $85,000.

In reply to a comment by a member of the faculty, Mr. C. W. Hintz, University librarian, stated that, in the future, the Library will remain open on the Saturday afternoon of Homecoming week end.

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

MACY MEMORIAL. The faculty rose while Mr. P.B. Simpson presented the following memorial, on behalf of the faculty of the Department of Economics:
"Professor C. Ward Macy was born in Lynnville, Iowa in 1899. His college education began at Grinnell College, where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1920. In 1918 he served in the U.S. Army and in 1920-22 taught in the high school of Newton, Iowa. He received his Master of Arts degree from the University of Iowa in 1923 and his Doctor of Philosophy degree from Stanford University in 1931.
"Dr. Macy was on the faculty of Coe College from 1923 to 1950. He became professor of economics at Coe in 1932, and served in various administrative posts, including that of Dean of Faculty from 1946 to 1950. In 1950, at the age of 50, Dr. Macy became professor of economics and head of the department at the University of Oregon, and was on active duty in these positions until shortly before his death on November 11, 1962, at the age of 63.
"Dr. Macy received many honors. He was at various times a University Scholar at the University of Iowa, Royall Victor Fellow at Stanford University, Fulbright Lecturer at Oxford University, Ford Foundation Research Fellow, and consultant to business and government organizations. He was a member of several professional societies and served a term as president of the Midwest Economic Association. He published in the Journal of Political Economy, Bulletin of the National Tax Association, and various other periodicals. He was joint author of Public Finance, Selected Readings, a standard work in the field.
"Above all, Dr. Mac}' was a fello'w W0rker of his colleagues in the faculty of the University of Oregon, and, in this role, contributed much to the effectiveness, harmony, and prestige' of the faculty. Few of the present faculty, except thoRe recently arrived, have not worked with him intimate 1. y. He served on innumerah Ie committees, i nc ludi,ng t,wo for. the selection of a University President.

The President spnke brief]y of his "wn personal debt to Mr. Macy. Whe11 Mr. M,,~y l.7-'!S servinz 2r. a member of the presidenti.al selection committee, the President recalled, they had had many conversati.ons about the University of Oregon. As Mr. Macy talked about the University, he presented the picture of a great institution; and this was no exaggeration, but an objective analysis and interpretation, which provided an invaluable background of understanding for the new administration.
COMMITTEE ON FEDERAL AID AND ACADEMIC FREEDOM. Mr. Hulteng moved, on behalf of the Faculty Senate, that the faculty establish a standing Committee on Federal Aid and Academic Freedom, with functions suggested in the final report of the ad hoc Cowmittee on the Disclaimer Affidavit, presented at the November 1962 meeting of the faculty. The motion was seconded, put to a vote, and carried.
JANUARY 1963 FACULTY MEETING. Mr. Hulteng moved, on behalf of the Faculty Senate, that the January 1963 meeting of the faculty be postponed from January 2 to January 9. The motion was seconded, put to a vote, and carried.
FACULTY SENATE VACANCY. Mr. O..J. Hollis, chairman of the Faculty Senate, reported that Mr. Macy was a member of the Senate through election by the general faculty for a term expiring at the close of the June 1963 faculty meeting, and stated that the faculty had three alternatives in regard to the vacancy created by his death: (1) to proceed immediately with the casting of a nominating ballot, with an electing ballot to be cast at the January 1963 meeting; (2) to postpone a nominating ballot until January, in which case the electing ballot would be cast at the February meeting; or (3) to leave the position vacant until it is filled at the regular election in May. He pointed out that, if the position is to be filled, only persons affiliated with the College of Liberal Arts who are not now members of the Senate would be eligible for nomination and elction.
~~ J
Mr. R.T. Ellckson moved that the faculty proceed with the casting of a nominating ballot at this meeting. The motion was seconded, put to a vote, and carried. Ballots were distributed and collected. Mr. C.L. Constance and Mr. A.L. Roecker served as tellers. The following persons were chosen as candidates: Paul Civin, P,B. Simpson.
STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. President Flemming commented on the biennial budget for the Oregon State System of Higher Education recommended to the Legislature by the Governor on December 1, 1962.
He pointed out that the Governor has accepted the evaluation of capital-improvement needs of the State System as presented by the Board of Higher Education, and has recommended financing through a bond issue. On the whole, the Governor's recommendations place the State System in a quite favorable position in regard to capital improvements; but the Board will urge before the Legislature tbe need for accomplishing the full $45 million capital-improvement program within the coming biennium, rather than over a four-year period, as suggested by the Governor.
However, the Governor's budget for current operating expenses falls short of meeting the pressing needs of higher education. The President noted, in particular, that the salary average for new academic staff has been cut below the Board's estimate of minimum need, and that the Board's request for salary-increase funds has also been reduced. The Board, he stated, has not retreated an inch from its position on the basic needs of the State System, has made its views clear to the Governor, and will present forcefully to the Legislature the case for its original budgetary requests.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

COMPUTER COUNTING IN FACULTY ELECTIONS. The secretary reported that preliminary tests have been made of an IBM computer program for the counting of ballots in faculty elections. There is every reason to believe that computer counting will work inthese elections, under existing rules and with substantial saving in time and telIer labot", but it appears wise, before using the computer in a real election, to give the plan another trial run under actual conditons of a faculty meeting. The secretary therefore proposed that, if the faculty is willing, a trial be made at the Feburary or March meeting of the faculty (depending on the receipt of special IBM cards). There being no objection, President Flemming stated that the trial ,would be made as soon as materials are available.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE CURRICULUM. Mr. L.R. Sorenson, chairman of the Committee on the Curriculum. called attention to a memeographed report mailed t.0 the fac'ulty or: January 4, 1963, in whith the committee outlined a revised schedule for the submission and screening of proposals for curricullar changes. A copy of this report is filed in the office of the secreatry of the faculty.

STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. President Flemming repr'rted that a total of $l1()5,097 was caised for the University of Oregon Development Fund in 1962; the quota for the year Was AIDO,OOO. The President also reported that the instituti1ona1 executives of the State Svstem have recent Iv discussed . . 'lari10us questions in regard to out-of-otate students Attending public institutions of hi~gher educationn in Oregon. It was the view af the execnti:,::res t:h,1t ':'"' q'_~0tSS shnnld bp. set fnr ("\~!t-n1=-st,?~te s~udent:'3. The que1stion of r'lising admission requirements for such students w,JaS discussed, hut it was decided that this matter should be con1cidered i1n connection with the consideration now being given to in-8tate admissions requirements. The question of equitable fees for out-of-state students was also discussed; i1t appears probable that, in the future, fees for these students will be determined in relation to the average per-student cost of lower-division instruction for the St,ate System but that this figure Hill be aprroached through gradual increases. In reply to A question from a member of the faculty, the President stated that the Board of Higher Education wilI be asked to seek authorization from the Legislature for the granting of fee schola2rships to superior out-af-state students.

There being no further business, the meeting vJaS adjourned.

MOCK ELECTION. A mock election '>Ias conducted to test a program for computer counting of ballots in faculty ejections, and to familiarize the faculty with the mechanics of voting for computer counting. Before the first ballot w~as distributed, the secretary made the fol101>1ing statement: "If this experiment is as successful as '.we believe it will be, I am assuming that the faculty will be ,willing t.o have computer counting used in faculty elections in May. It is perhaps preferable that approval be given on the basis of informal general consent, rather than by formal motion fixing the form of the ballot. Faculty legislation on elections, at present, does not contain instructions on ballot form--which allows flexibility for adjustments to new problems or changing circumstances." No objections being heard on the completion of the experiment, it was the secretary's conclusion that the use of the computer for ballot counting has the faculty's approval.
INTRODUCTION OF DEAN CREESE. Creese, who will become dean of the Arts on July 1, 1963.

NOTICE OF MOTION ON STATE FEE SCHOLARSHIPS. Mr. Hans Linde gave notice that he Hould move at the March 1963 meeting of the faculty: "'The faculty, believing that state fee scholarships should and reasonably could relieve their recipients of all tuition and fees, recommends that the President seek from the State Board of Higher Education such an extension of the scope of S"tate fee scholarships."
STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. Mr. Kester Svendsen reported to the faculty 'on the operation of the Board of Directors of the University of Oregon Development Fund. He stated that the 191'i3 goal for gU'ts to the fund is $150,000. Of this amount $10,000 will be allocated to faculty travel, $5,000 to partial support of distinguished professorships, and $10,000 toward the bulding of a reserve fund for the financing of faculty group life insurance. President Fleming reported that Mr. George Weber of Seattle’s the new chairman of the Development fund board and that the drive for Development fund gifts in Eugene has been opened with a meeting of 50 outstanding business leaders in the community. He stated that this year as soon as the advisory council decides on the recommendat6ion to make in a particular case relative to promotion or tenure, it immediately transmits its recommendation to the President. After receiving the recommendation, the Presider-t ,,,ill immediatel will immediately act on it and then notify the Dean of faculties of his action, who will inturn notify the appropriate dean.

NOTICE OF MOTION ON STUDENT DISCIPLINE POLICY. Mr. chairman of the Student Discipline Committee, gave notice move at the May 1963 meeting of the faculty, on behalf of the adoption of the following motion:
D. A. Watson, that he would his committee,
(I) That the faculty approve recommendations 1-5, stated below, as the University policy basis for a code governing student conduct:
Recommendationv.l: When student conduct directly and significantly interferes with the basic purposes of the University, disciplinary sanctions may appropriately be imposed. For the purposes of this recommendation the basic purposes of the University shall be described as the acquisition, transmission, and application of know,edge and understanding together with the development of various aptitudes and skills.
Recommendation 2: The University should distinguish its proper disciplinary responsibilities from the control functions of the larger community. This means that the student should be directly answerable to the community for violations of its required code of conduct. The University, in turn, should only exercise its disciplinary powers when the student's conduct directly and significantly interferes with the accomplishment of the University's goals.
Recommendation 3: The approach to the regulation of student conduct should be based on the premise that the development of responsible behavior is not effectively realized by policies which unduly prolong dependence and immaturity.
Recommendation 4: The conduct of female students should not be more restrictively controlled than that of male students.
Recommendation 5: Actions taken by the Office of Student Affairs in its administration of the discipline code should be subject to review by the Discipline Committee or a specially constituted student-faculty committee. In those instances in which representatives of the Office of Student Affairs impose the sanctions of expulsion, suspension, blocked registration, or "informal" requests that a student leave the University, an appeal to the Discipline Committee or to a specially constituted student-faculty committee should be automatic. It might be further suggested that, even though our recommenda tion is only concerned wi th review and appeal safeguards, other specific policies and procedures designed to protect the rights of students charged with infractions of - the discip linary code wlould also seem to be Ca lIed for.
(2) That a faculty-student committee be appointed to develop a code within the framework of the policy established by recommendations 1-5 governing all phases of student conduct and to specify procedures for administering such a code.

NOTICE OF MOTIONS ON INSTRUCTION IN WRITTEN AND ORAL DISCOURSE. Mr. R. S. Summers, chairman of the special Committee on Written and Oral Discourse, gave notice that he would move at the May 1963 meeting of the facl! lty, on behalf of his commi ttee, the adoption of the .following motions:

(1) That the improvement of student ~.;riting is not exclusively the responsibility of instructors in the Department of English;
(2) That instructors throughout the University should hereafter assume more responsibility for the improvement of student writing;

(5) That the President of the University should try to provide ways ano means (a) to enable the various schools and departments to retain composi tion specialists, (b) to reduce the responsibilities of those instruct::>rs who Hish to devote substantial additional time to thE' improvement of the wTiting of their students, and (c-.) to enable the Department ('\£ Engl isn to f.1A.i,ntain staff to vlhorr i.nstruct'.Jrs c;:;.n refer students for furth~r tra.i.r.'i:~g in \'l'ritir.e;

Accordinglyv' the faculty has agreed that instructors should reduce student's grades when their papers are poorly w,ritten or when their oral discourse is unsatisfactory. The ability to organize and effectively present ideas both orally and in writing is a prerequisite to graduation from this University."
NOTICE OF MOTION TO ESTABLISH AN ADMISSIONS POLICY COMMITTEE. Mr. E. R. Bingham gave notice that he would move, at the May 1963 meeting of the faculty, that the faculty of the University of Oregon authorize the appointment of a standing committee, preferably of three faculty members, to be known as the Admissions Policy Committee; it shall be the duty of this committee to advise the President on all matters relating to the admissions policies and procedures of the University.

The President then read to the faculty a statement of the principal findings of an investigation of hazing in campus fraternities, and of policies in regard to hazing which will be put into effect immediately.

STUDENT DISCIPLINE POLICY. Mr. D. A. Watson, chairm~n of the Student Disci.pline Commi.ttee, moved on behalf of his co~ittee:

(l) That the facultv approve recommendations numbered l through 5 (as specified below) of the report of the Cor~mittee on Student Discipline as the basis for a code governing .student conduct. In the formulation and administration of rules of conduct pursuant to the following reco~mendation.s. numbered l through 5, the. primary guiding principle shoulcd be the fulfillment of the most essenti.al functions of a university, which are the irtellectual development of its members and the advancement of knowledge. The faculty rec.ognize.s that the recommenclations of the Committee 0n Student Discipline re..present desirable goals rather than absolute. standards, and that to approa.ch them wil]. require repeated revision of rul.es and adaption of practices ir. the light of changing conditions affec~ing the social responsibility and maturity of students. It notes further that the student body of the Universits, has come to include persons of widelv differing age.s and circumstances, for many of whom. the Universit.y has speci.al responsibilities fn varying degrees,. and that no one simple .set of rules can apply to problems arising among freshmen and graduates, among students `.cho live in hou..sing owned by the. University and those in private propert.y outside its j,~risdiction.

(2) That a faculty-stude.nt commi.tte.e be appointed to develop a code within the framework of the policy established hy ree.ommendations l-5 governing .student conduct and to spe.cify procedures for administering such a code.

The University, i.n turn, should only exercise its disciplinary powers when the student's conduct directly and significantly interfereswith t.he ac.complishment of the University's goals

RecoT~unendation 3: The approach to the regulation of student conduct shou1.d be based on the. premise that the development of responsible behavior is most effectively rea]i.zed by policies thst enco~.~rage. independence and maturity

Recommendation 4: The r~n.les applsring to the conduct of female students should not, as far ss pras~ticable, impose greater re.straints thar. those that apply to the conduct of ~nsle studerts. Tn respec~ to inmposing sanctions affectir.g conduct of rna.1.e and female st~ dents general principles of ecuity should be recogni~ed~

Recommendation 5: Actions talcen by the Office of Student Affairs in its admir.istration of the discipline code should be subject to reviem by the Discipline Comm.ittee. or a specla11y corstituted st ~dent-faculty committee. In those i.nstanc.es i.r. whi.ch repre.ser.t~ti~res of the Offic.e of Student Affa.irs impose the .sanc tions of expt~l.sion, suspe.nsion. hlocked regi.strati.on, cr infc~s~Tal" req!ie.st.s tT~~~: .~ st. der.t leave. the.

The Presi.der.t ruled that motinns (/+) and (5) we.re not now before th.e faculty, and that Mr. Alpert~s motion could be considered only as a substitute for motion (3). Mr. Alpert's motion was seconded. M..r. Hans I,inde requested a report of the recommendations of the Faculty Senate concerning motions (4) and (5).

Accordingly, students should recognize that some instructors wi.ll re.duce students' grades when their papers are poorly written or when their oral discourse is unsatisfactory." The motion was seconde.d, !~ut to a vote, and defeated.

(Note: Mr Hulteng reported, informally, earlier in the meeting, that The Senate had voted tc recom~end the approval of a some.what different version of motion. (5).

The princioal motion as emendecl WfTS then pu.t to a `,ote and c.scried.

Mr. Summers moved: (21 Tha~t the Pre..sidert of the Ilni~rersiLv should try tc provide wavs ac~d means to enahle the Departrnent of Speech tc maintain staff to whom in.structors can refer students for training in oral. discourse." The motion having heer. seconded, Mr. Hulteng reported that t.he Senate rec^m.mended it.s a~ppro~.ral. The rroti.on wss then put to a vote and defeated.

Mr. Summers moved: (3,) That the Acade.mic Requirements Committee and the Committee on the Curriculum study and report their views to the faculty on the following recommendation whic.h was `.~nanimously adopted by the committee: That, effective with the academlc year 1964-65, the facult~,, include a basi.c. three-term course in rhetoric and public address in the list of courses ss.ti.sfying the arts and ].etters group of the lower-division group requirements of the Col lege of Liberal Arts. The motion having been seconded, Mr. Hulteng reported that the Senate rec.ommended its appro~.~al.

Mr. Aly moved to amer.d motion (3) to provide that the recon~mendation of the Committee on Written enrl Oral Discourse he referred to an ad hoc Committee on Ac.ademic Policy, to be appointed by the President with instructions to report to the faculty at its meeting in February 1964; and that the ad hoc Committee on Academic Policy be empowered and. instructed t..o review, and to make rec.ommendat.ions concerni.ng, the pol.icy of the IJniversity of Oregon with reference to required courses.

The motion was seconded. Mr I.. E, Ward rose to a point of order, questioning whe.ther Mr. Aly's amendment was germane to the. pri.ncipal motion. The Presldent ruled that. that part of Mr. A].y's motion which would refer the recommendation of the Committee on Written and Oral Discourse to an ad hoc commLttee, rather than to the Academi.c Requirements Committee and the Committee on the Curriculum, was germane, but that he was in doubt concerning that part of the motion which would inStruct the _d hoc committee to review, and to make recommendations concerning, the policy of the University of Oregon with reference to required courses. Mr. Aly stated that he would separate the two parts of his motion.

Mr. Al.y then moved to amend motion (3) to provide that. the recommendati.on of the Commi.ttee on Written and Oral. Discourse stated in the motion be referred to an ad hoc. Committee on Academi.c Policy to be appointed by the President, with instn~ctions to report to the faculty at its meeting in February 1964. The motion to amend was .seconded, put to a vote, and defeated. The principal motion was then put to a vote by a show of hands and carried: 31 yes, 27 no.

Mr~ A1Y then gave notice of motion that the President he requested to appoint an ad hoc Committee on Academic Policy; and that the Committee on Academic PoTicy be empowered and instructed to review, and to make recommendations concerning, the policy of the University of Oregon with reference to required courses. The President stated that the motion would be referred to the Faculty Senate and he brought before the facu]ty at. its regular June 1963 meeting. A point of order was raised, whether notice at this special meeting was sufficient to allow consideration at the June meeting. Mr. O. J. Hollis stated that, while the notice rule W8S perhaps not quite explicit, he helieved it is the intent of the rule that notice of a motion be give.n at: a regu]ar faculty meeting, normally one month before the motion comes before the faculty for consideration. He pointed out that faculty legislation provides for an alternative way of giving notice, thro~.~gh publication in the Faculty Bulletin at least three weeks before consideration, and that the June 1963 meeting will be held two weeks from today.

The President suggested that the faculty might at this meeting, by a two-thirds vote, suspend the rule and allow Mr. Aly's motion to be placed on the agenda for the June meetirg. Mr. Hol lis state.d that, since the purnose of the role was the protection of the rights of members of the faculty not in attendance, he doubted whether such actior, at this meeting would he in order. Mr. Aly state.d that he wou]d accept this interpretation.

Mr. Summers withdrew motion (4): That the statement set fort.h above or a similar statement appear at an appropriate place in the regular and summer catalogs (see motion 5 in the group of motions cor.cerning written discourse, which the faculry voted to disapprove).

ADMISSIONS POLICY COMMITTEE. Mr. E. R. Bingham moved that the faculty of the University of Oregon authorize the appointment of a standing committee to be known as the Admissions Policy Committee. It shall be the duty of this committee to advise the faculty and the President on all matters relating to the admissions policies and procedures of the University. The ~notion having been seconded, Mr. Hulteng reported that the Faculty Senate recommended its approval. The motion was then put to a vote and carried.

ANIHAL CARE LEGISLATION. Mr. Alpert announce.d that he would move the adoption of the fo] Lowing resol`.~tion at the June 1963 meeting of the faculty: Be it resolved that the faculty of the IJniversity of Oregon supports in principle the statement approved by the IJniversity of Oregon Medical School executive faculty regard.ing ar=imal care legislation. Be it further resolved that copies of this motion he transmit.ted to all members of the Oregon delegation in Congress. Mr. Alpert requested that the secretary trar.smit to the faculty c.opies of the statement to which reference is made in the resolution.

STATE OF THE UNIVERSITY. President Fle.mming reported brief ly on the present state of higher education salary appropriations and measures for capital outlav in the Oregon Legislat~ re.

There being no further bt~siness, the ~neeting was ad~ourned.
