     10. Report of Director of University Extension,    The se-
mester's report of the Director of University Extension on the
finances of the Department and its enrollment was read and the
following extract therefrom was ordered incorporated in the
minutes:




                                    January 25, 1928

     Dr. Frank L. McVey, President
          University of Kentucky
               Lexington, Kentucky

     My dear Sir:

          Attached is a copy of the semi-annual financial
     statement to the Busines Agent, covering the period
     May 1, 1927, to December 31, 1927.    I would call at-
     tention to the following points:




 





10l



     First, the enrollment in the Department during
the first semester was 1,147 persons with 1,642 en-
rollments.   In addition, the Department organized
special residence courses on the campus under arrange-
ments with the Deans with 184 enrollments and 87 per-
sons, making a total of 1 826 enrollments and 1,234
persons during the first semester.    We are reporting
the special residence courses separately so that the
Registrar may have the information for his report.

     Second; the receipts for the Department during
the semester are slightly in excess of 'l14,000.   At
the present time there are only three outstanding
items to be collected.   These are all good and we ex-
pect to have them collected and turned in to the
Business Office before the first of February.    The
total receipts have been checked by the Business Office
and the report which we have made approximately agrees
with the Business Office receipts.

     Third, the Department is costing the University
under its budget approximately `n29,OOO annually, 10,000
of which is a revolving fund for the payment of instruc-
tion.   This revolving fund is increased in the Bus-
iness Office according to the amount of actual receipts
turned in by the Department.    The report which we
are making covers only correspondence courses and exten-
sion classes and shows the actual situation so far as
those two activities are concerned.    Our plan has been
to make them pay for themselves and have a small amount
left over to apnly on overhead expense.    When collec-
tions are made we shall have left approximately $3,000,
which, with the collections for the second semester,
will possibly aggregate approximately $5 ,000 for the
year.   This will mean that the Department will actual-
ly cost the University somewhere in the neighborhood
of ,Mll 000 or M'12,000 for the year.

     The work of the Department has considerably in-
creased during this semester and the total receipts
and enrollments of students for the year will, if
the present outlook is realized, be considerably in
excess of last year.

                    Very truly yours,

                      (Signed) Wellington Patrick, Director
                                Department of University
                                        Extension
