             President Wethington recommended that the Board approve the naming of
the third building of the Gaines Center located at 226 East Maxwell Street as the
Commonwealth House. This designation is highly appropriate because of the Center's
role in undergraduate education in the Commonwealth. He said that the Committee on
Naming University Buildings and the Chancellor of the Lexington Campus have made this
recommendation to him, and he was pleased to recommend approval of PR 5D. On
motion, made by Mr. Miles and seconded by Mr. Shoop, PR 5D was approved. (See PR
5D at the end of the Minutes.)

       Governor Breathitt said that the Gaines Center is a wonderful Center on campus.
The Gaines Center and the Honors Program are able to attract students of high quality.
The students' interaction with the university and the stimulation that the students receive
from this program is outstanding.

      M.    New Multidisciplinary Center (PR 6A)

Management and Research. It will serve in a consulting role to health care organizations
across the Commonwealth and potentially outside the Commonwealth. It will also
provide impetus for health services research and will bring together investigators to work
in an interdisciplinary fashion to solve some of the problems that arise out of managed
care and other health care services delivery modes.

      President Wethington said he was pleased to recommend approval of PR 6A. Dr.
Meriwether moved approval. Mr. Wilcoxson seconded the motion, and it carried. (See
PR 6A at the end of the Minutes.)
