President Dickey presided. The minutes of March 11, 1963 were approved as circularized. Dean Carpenter presented a request from the College of Commerce to waive the two—drop rule for James Walton Compton. He stated that Mr. Compton trans- ferred 65 hours of advanced credit to the University from Morehead State College; that in four semesters here he attempted 56 hours and earned 100 points, and that personal obligations to family and necessity to earn money limited his grade potential. The Faculty approved the request for waiver of the two-drop rule for Mr. Compton and the Chairman directed Dean Carpenter to notify him that he is approved for readmission to the 1965 Fall Semester. Dr. Weaver, Chairman of the University Faculty Council, presented the recom- mendations from the College of Nursing circulated under date of May 2, 1963 for establishment of a nursing program at Northwest Center, Henderson. The College of Nursing submits herewith recommendations pertaining to the establishment of a complete two year nursing program at the University of Kentucky Community College in Henderson, beginning with the fall semester of 1963. The proposed program is presented as being within the approved functions of the Community Colleges, namely to offer certain technical or pre—professional terminal programs. This proposal has been developed in consultation with the departments concerned on the main University campus, with the staff of the Community Colleges at Henderson and with the Office of the Dean of Extended Programs. It has been reviewed and approved by the University Administration and, therefore, is being submitted for the endorsement of the University Faculty. Because many of the considerations pertinent to the administrative review should prove helpful to members of the University Faculty in under- standing this proposal fully, much of this material is included in the present memorandum. ' Specifically, the College of NUrsing requests of the University Faculty the following actions: 1. Endorsement of the proposed program. 2. Approval of the proposed curriculum with the understanding that any courses not previously approved by the University Faculty will be presented for review and approval at a later date but before being pg; taught. 3. Reconsideration of the credential to be granted for satisfactory completion of a terminal program. The College of NUrsing requests approval of the "Associate Degree" as the credential to be granted by the University for satisfactory completion of the nursing program as outlined in this document. The reasons for these requests are developed in the memorandum attached. I. BaCkground Information i A .. 21615112? : Wt" . : . .
