         Minutes of the Meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of
Trustees of the University of Kentucky August 14, 1959.


         The Executive Committee of the Boa Ld of Trustees of the University
of Kentucky met in the Presidentt s Office at 9:40 a. m. , CST, Friday, August
14, 1959, with the following members present: R. P. Hobson, chairman; Dr.
Ralph J. Angelucci and Harper Gatton.  Absent: J. Stephen Watkins and Wood
Hannah, Sr.  President Frank G. Dickey and Secretary Frank D. Peterson
met with the Committee.


         A. Approval of Minutes.

         The minutes of the Executive Committee meeting of May 22, 1959, were
approved as published.



         B. Building Needs.

         Mr. Hobson, Chairman of the Executive Committee, stated that he had
been doing a lot of thinking about the building needs of the University since Pres-
ident Dickey' s last report on building needs. Discussion of the need for
academic facilities ensued.  The new Chemistry-Physics building, as programmed,
was discussed at some length, as well as the possibility of issuing revenue bonds
to acquire these facilities.

        The need for a Library Annex, College of Commerce building, lecture
hall to be used as classroom space and Engineering Annex, was reviewed and
considered at some length.  President Dickey stated that Pence Hall (old
Physics building) and Kastle Hall (old Chemistry building) should be remodeled,
renovated and used for academic facilities if and when a new Chemistry-Physics
building is obtained. The restoration of these buildings would relieve, to some
extent, the great need for classroom facilities. He added that additional fa-
cilities such as plant pathology and food technology building were needed for
work of the College of Agriculture and Home Economics and Agricultural Exper-
iment Station. Additions to the Student Union building and the College of Law
building represent other current needs.  It was stated that the University has
come a long way in building physical facilities for auxiliary and service enter-
prises. Such buildings, in the main, are self-supporting and can be amortized
through revenues from these facilities, but a classroom building, generally
speaking is not revenue producing.  Mr. Peterson called attention to the brochure
just issued by the University concerning building needs and a graph revealing
the portion of buildings constructed through the use of State tax money versus
funds from other sources.  He reported that capital inventory for expenditures
for buildings at the University since 1866 through April 30, 1959, excluding
the Medical Center and a boys' dormitory under construction, revealed that
$30, 386, 000-plus had been invested.  State tax money has been appropriated
in the amount of $7,942, 000-plus and the rest of the funds, exceeding
$22, 000, 000, has come fromn gifts, grants, borrowed money and other non-state




 








                                                                             2



funds. He reported that, of the amount appropriated by the Legislature, tax-
revenues, the following sums had been spent on the facilities listed:

              Classroom-academic facilities --$I, 836, 094. 24;

              Dormitory buildings-boys' and girls' --$628, 778. 06;

              Stadium and Coliseum--$3,211,210. 00;

              Experiment Station buildings- -$1, 059,404. 70;

              Plant facilities, steam lines, electrical and telephone
                  systems--$1, 206, 752. 87;

              Total State Funds--$7,942, 239. 87.

        A chronological list of land acquisitons reveals a total cost from 1880
to 1958, including the Coldstream Farm, aggregating $3,419,266.45; State
funds, $1,513,955.34; non-State funds, $1,905,311. 11. (Note: Buildings on
Coldstream Farm carried at $559, 525. 25).


        C. Discussion of Salary Limitation.

        President Dickey reported that the law firm of Bradley and Bradley,
Georgetown, Ky., had been engaged to represent the University of Kentucky in
the request before the Court of Appeals for review of their opinion relating to
salaries of state officers and employees. He stated that they had filed a
brief as amicus curiae and had been granted permission to file a brief some
time before October 1, 1959. Mr. Hobson and members of the Committee
stated that they had been in touch with various people concerning the decision
of the Court of Appeals, had conferred with the attorneys involved, and stood
ready to assist further in any way possible.

        Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, contract was authorized
executed.


        D. Contract with Department of Economic Development Approved.

        Mr. Peterson submitted a contract between the Kentucky Department of
Economic Development and the University-Experiment Station.  The contract
provides that the University-Experiment Station will continue to make certain
tests with swine, sheep and in other areas affecting livestock during the year
1959-60. The Department of Economic Development will contribute the sum
of $5, 000 on a reimbursement basis towards this work. Mr. Peterson recom-
mended that the program be continued and that the contract be approved and
authorized executed.



        The Committee being advised, upon motion duly made, seconded and
carried, the contract was approved and authorized executed.

        Nonerl Gentry, an employee of the Student Union Cafeteria.  This
accident occurred on June 2, 1959, in the dish room of the Student Union Cafe-
teria.  Miss Gentry slipped on a. wet floor and sprained her back,  No one
being on duty at the Health Service at the time, she was taken to the Good
Samaritan Hospital emergency room.  Dr, J. S. Sprague was on call duty and
rendered service.  He has submitted a bill for $10. 0(0 for examination and
treatment for contusion.  The Good Samaritan Hospital has rendered an invoice
in the amount of $2. 00 for use of the emergency room.

        Clayton Prewitt, employee of the Division of Maintenance and Operations.
This accident occurred on May 3, 1959, at the Central Rock Company on the
Old Frankfort Pike.  Mr. Prewitt was trying to replace a latch that had come
loose on the tailgate of the truck.  He was there to pick up crushed rock for the
University.  While lifting up the gate to put in the pin at the top, the gate slipped
and caught his hand between the chain and the truck bed.  Mr. Prewitt reported
to the Health Service and was examined by Dr. J. S. Sprague and referred to
Dr. C. M. Friesen.,  Doctor Friesen submits invoice for $30. 60 for consultation,
diagnosis, fracture care and x-rays.

        Mr. Peterson stated that he had looked into these accidents and
charges and desired to recommend that they be paid, with the expressed under-
standing that the University does not admit negligence or liability in each case
and that the payment of these bills does not establish a precedent.

        Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the invoice of $35. 00
for Dr. J. S. Sprague and $5. 00 for Good Samaritan Hospital emergency room
for accident in case of Roy Turpin; the invoice for $4, 00 for x-rays made by

Samaritan Hospital for treatment of Nonerle Gentry; and the charge cf $30. 60
by Dr. C. M. Friesen in connection with injury to Clayton Prewitt, were au-
thorized paid, with the expressed understanding that the University does not ad-
mit negligence or liability, nor does it establish a precedent by paying these invoices;
and each injury is to be considered as a separate action of the Executive Commit-
tee.



        F. Disposal of Obsolete Property Authorized.

        Mr. Peterson reported that the College of Engineering had a very old
Chambersburg forging hammer located in the foundry. He stated that this ham-
mer was very old and was obsolete and of no further value to the College of
Engineering. It is taking up valuable space. Mr. Peterson also reported a
few tons of heavy scrap metal which had accumulated over a period of a few
years in the mining and metallurgical areas of the College. He requested per-
mission to dispose of this property at the most favorable price obtainable.

        K. Department of Architecture Established.

        President Dickey read the following letter from Dean R. E. Shaver,
College of Engineering.



      July
      Thirteenth
      19 59

      Dr. Frank G. Dickey, President
      University of Kentucky
      Campus

      Dear President Dickey-
          The expanding interest in Ai chitecture displayed by Kentucky




 






6



High School graduates; and the large enrollment in our present Ar-
chitectural option in the Department of Civil Engineering, points
to the desirability of expanding our present program to one leading
to the degree of Bachelor of Architecture.  The present option, as
now constituted, represents approximately one half of the work re -
quired for this degree, and graduates from the program receive the
Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering.

      Some work in this area has been offered by the Department
of Civil Engineering with service courses in the Department of Art
for more than thirty years. The first courses in Architecture were
offered in 1927-28.  There has been a constant growth in the number
of Kentucky students seeking a degree in Architecture.  Those who
are financially able have been attending out-of state institutions
for their formal Architectural education.  The Architectural option
in Civil Engineering has been the only recourse available to Kentucky
students who could not afford the higher costs at institutions in
other states. The number of those in this last category has steadily
increased and this past year, there were 104 students registered in
the option. There seems to be good evidence that this number will
increase when the curriculum is expanded to degree status.

      In the light of these facts, I recommend the expansion of our
curriculum in Architecture to a five-year program - a minimum of
five years is required for accreditation by the National Architectural
Accrediting Board - and the awarding of the degree of Bachelor of
Architecture.  For administrative purposes, the initial step, in
activating this program will be the establishment of a Department of
Architecture to operate within the organizational framework of the
College of Engineering.  For reasons of accreditation, some time
within the first five years of operation, it wvill be recessary to change
the Department to the status of a. School of Architecture, headed by a
Director, The School could be organized in the same manner as the
School of Journalism in the College of Arts and Sciences,

      The preliminary planning for such a program has been under-
way for more than ten years and in the past year has culminated in the
formation of a specific program.  We are now in position to recommend
a. curriculum to the University Faculty, when authorized to do so.
The cost of this expansion will not be large.  The principal initial
cost will be the addition of the equivalent of one and one-half staff mem-
bers to our present teaching staff in this field, if this recommendation
is approved, we can complete all details necessary and admit the first
new students to the program in September 1960. The proposed cur-
riculum will allow for the transfer of those students now in the Architectural
option into this expanded program.

     In summary., I request your favorable consideration and the
approval of the Board of Trustees for the establishment of a Depart-
ment of Architecture in the College of Engineering and the degree of
Bachelor of Architecture, to be effective July 1, 1960.  The degree
to be awarded to those students who successfully complete a. five year
curriculum approved by the University Faculty.  It is further requested
that this action be taken with the full understanding that the Department




 






7



        must be moved to the status of a School, similar to that of the School
        of Journalism in the College of Arts and Sciences, before the cur-
        riculum will be accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting
        Board.

             Upon request, I will be glad to supply you with additional facts
        or information concerning these recommendations.

                                                     Sincerely,

                                              (Signed) R, E. Shaver
                                                       Dean



         The President recommended that the Department of Architecture be
established, effective September, 1960, similar to the School of Journalism in
the College of Arts and Sciences.

         Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the recommendation
of the President was concurred in and the Department of Architecture was au-
thorized.



         L. University Center at Fort Knox Authorized.

         President Dickey stated that the University had for several years been
talking to officials at Fort Knox concerning the establishment of a University
center. The Fort Knox officials have recently raised the question and Dr.
A. D. Albright, Dean of Extended Programs, has submitted a full report to
the-University Faculty, with the recommendation that an extension center be
established at Fort Knox.  He stated that, at the present time, facilities
necessary for offices, classrooms, library and laboratories are available at
the camp site and that a camp library would be made available to the center,
as well as the new acquisitions which currently involve about 9, 000 volumes a
year.  Doctor Albright submitted a suggested program for the first and second
semesters of the current year.  The University Faculty has recommended the
establishment of the center and President Dickey recommended that the center
be established and authorized by the Executive Committee.

        Son-e discussion followed the recommendation, and upon motion duly
made, seconded and carried, the University Center was authorized established
at Fort Knox, effective the fall semester of 1959.



        M. Request of Credit Union Considered.

        President Dickey read a letter from Mr. John C. Redman, treasurer
of the University of Kentucky Credit Union, recommending a payroll deduction
plan to collect payments on loans made by the Credit Union.  The statutes
were consulted and, being advised, the Executive Committee, upon motion
duly made, seconded and carried, declined to authorize payroll deduction
since the Credit Union is not actually an integral part of the University but is
rather a separate and private organization which does not represent the ma-
jority of the University faculty and staff.
