   Q. Change in Status of Department of Home Economics.

   President Donovan reported that Dean Frank J. Welch, Dean and Director
of the College of Agriculture and Home Economics and Agricultural Experiment
Station, had recommended an adjustment in the status of the Home Economics
Department, with a change in its designation from Department of Home Economics
to School of Home Economics.  Dean Welch requested that the School be placed
under a Director who would report directly to the Dean.

   The President stated that a rather critical need for more trainees in the
field of home economics and the necessity of strengthening the program of work
on the campus had prompted this request, and he believed it would be easier
to build a stronger and more serviceable program under the proposed adminis-

   Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, on recommendation of the
President, the name of the Department of Home Economics was changed to
School of Home Economics and it was placed in charge of a Director who will
repbrt directly to the Dean.
