The order of business was rearranged to accommodate some Senators who
needed to leave early.

On behalf of the Honorary Degrees Committee, Dr. Wimberly C. Royster,
Dean of the Graduate School, presented the proposed candidates for honorary
degrees at the May 1975 Commencement. Dr. Royster presented six candidates
with the request that the names be withheld until the Board of Trustees
has taken action and the nominees have accepted. Following his presentation
Chairman Krislov asked for a division of the question. Each name was pre—
sented and the Senate voted approval of each of the six candidates for
recommendation to the President and the Board of Trustees.

Professor Sedler stated that he thought the University should reconsider
the manner in which it is awarding honorary degrees; that the manner in
which they are awarded cheapens the original intent of the award.

The Chair recognized Professor Roger Eichhorn, Secretary of the Senate
Council, who recommended approval of changes in Section V, 2.12, 2.15, and
4.1, Rules 2: the University Senate, as circulated to the faculty under date
of November 6, 1974, subject to editorial changes by the Rules Committee.

He recommended further that the Senate approve the proposed addition to the
end of 4.1, as recommended by the Undergraduate Council in its memorandum
dated January 3, 1975, and circulated to the faculty by the Senate Council
under date of January 21, 1975, which reads as follows:
