for granting aid to members of the teaching faculty with the rank
of instructor or above traveling to meetings of learned and/or
professional societies under the conditions specified in the following
paragraphs. Future appropriations should be adjusted as requirements

d. The allotment to each college shall be made as indicated
above by the President of the University or a committee
named by him. When the allotment has been made to a
college, the Dean shall be responsible for assigning it to
to the members of his staff. Care should be exercised to
see that there is a fair and proper distribution of the
assigned fund among the four quarters of the year, among
the departments, and among individuals within departments.

President Donovan explained some points in connection with out-of-state
travel that were sometimes overlooked by members of the faculty. He stressed
the point that the Court of Appeals had ruled that reading a paper at a
meeting was not a valid reason for traveling at State expense and that

the application should indicate that the trip was for the purpose of
representing the University and for the benefit of the institution. After
further discussion, the University Faculty approved the recommendation

of the Planning and Policy Committee.

Dean White presented recommendations from the College of Arts and Sciences
as follows:

1. That Physical Education majors be allowed to make a field trip to
