He asked that those present announce to their departmentsthe availability
of this photocopfing machine.

Dean Elton asked that Calendar A, which had been circulated to the
faculty, be approved with the following amendment:

to be set up to schedule three examinations in one day rather than the
present four per day.

had been raised to the new calendar as well as some favorable reaction.
Discussion followed after which Calendar A, as amended, was approved by
the Faculty.

Report of the Special Committee on the Graduate Program, which had been
tabled by the Faculty at its December 14th, 1962 meeting until such time
as the Dean of the Graduate School had an opportunity to give his re—
actions, was introduced again by the Chairman of the Faculty Council.
