    D. Minutes Approved

    There being no additions or corrections to the Minutes of the
October 17, 1978, meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board
of Trustees, on motion duly made, seconded, and carried, the reading
of the Minutes was dispensed with and the Minutes were approved
as published.


     E. President's Report to the Trustees (PR 1)

     President Singletary called attention to PR 1, his Monthly
Report to the Trustees, and recommended its acceptance. Without
objection, it was so ordered.


     F. Recommendations of the President (PR 2)

     Remarking that PR 2, Recommendations of the President, contained
only routine Dersonnel changes, President Singletary recommended
approval of PR 2 as a whole. Mr. Frank Ramsey so moved. His
motion was seconded by Mr. Black and, without dissent, PR 2 was
approved and ordered made part of the Minutes. (See PR 2 at the
end of the Minutes.)


     G.  Supplemental Recommendations of the President (PR 3)

     The items in PR 3 concerned personnel changes not included as
a part of PR 2. These were routine in nature; however, President
Singletary did call attention to the request for an extension of
leave of absence for one year for Mr. Jack Hall, who is on special
assignment with State government. He then recommended approval of
PR 3 as a whole. On motion by Governor Chandler, seconded by Mr.
Homer Ramsey, and passed, the recommendations in PR 3 were approved.
(See PR 3 at the end of the Minutes.)


     H.  Candidates for Degrees - University System (PR 4)

     Without discussion, on motion by Mrs. Hermansdorfer, seconded
by Mr. Kessinger, and passed, the President was authorized to confer
upon each individual whose name appeared on the list attached to PR 4,
the degree to which said individual is entitled, upon certification
by the Dean of Admissions and Registrar and approval by the
University Senate that the individual has satisfactorily completed
all of the requirements for the degree for which application had
been made. (See PR 4 at the end of the Minutes.)


     I.  Budget Revisions for 1978-79 (PR 5)

     On President Singletary's recommendation, and without discussion,
on motion by Mr. Tichenor, seconded by Mr. Palmer, and passed, the
Budget Revisions for 1978-79 as recommended in PR 5 were authorized
and approved. (See PR S at the end of the Minutes.)
