Honorable Carl E. Sanders Governor, State of Georgia State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia 30334 My dear Governor Sanders:
In accordance with the provision of Section 32-129 of the Code of Georgia, I herewith submit to you a report concerning the activities of the University System of Georgia for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1962, and ending June 30, 1963.

REPORT OF THE CHANCELLOR OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA 1962-63 AcADEMIC YEAR
To THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS
OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA:
It is a privilege to submit to you a report covering some of the major aspects of the work of the University System of Georgia and its institutions during the year that ended on June 30, 1963. An occasional reference will be made to developments that took place after the close of the 1962-63 fiscal year.
The reports of the presidents of the institutions of the University System present the details of the internal operations of the institutions. Some of those reports have been printed and they are available to anyone who may wish to have them. The reports of all institutions for 1962-63 are in the files of the Office of the Board of Regents and may be inspected at any time. This report will deal primarily with the programs and activities of the University System as a whole, but it contains summaries of certain factual data presented in the reports of the institutions.
GENERAL STATEMENT
The 1962-63 year was one of continuing progress for the University System of Georgia. There were expansions in the physical facilities of existing institutions. Plans were made for the establishment of some new institutions. Student enrollments increased. There were increases in financial support for the University System and its institutions. There were improvements in the scope and quality of the academic and research work conducted within the System. This report contains references to all of these matters.
Student Enrollment. The cumulative student enrollment in the nineteen institutions of the University System was 39,266. This was an increase of 5.1 per cent over the cumulative enrollment during the preceding year. The increases in the average enrollments and the full-time equivalent enrollments were approximately 8 per cent.
State Allocations. During 1962-63 the University System received from the State of Georgia the sum of $38,887,000.00. This represented an increase of $4,811,250.00 over the amount received in 1961-62.
Building Program. In the 1962-63 fiscal year work was completed on ten relatively small building projects that cost a total amount of $3,618,763.00.
2
During the year contracts were let for the construction of additional projects. On June 30, 1963 work was going forward on buildings at sixteen institutions of the System: The esthnated cost of the buildings that were under construction at the end of the year was $27,054,088.00.
APPOINTMENTS TO THE BOARD OF REGENTS AND TO PRESIDENCIES OF INSTITUTIONS
During the past year resignations, retirements, and deaths brought about many changes in the administrative staffs and faculties of the institutions of the System. These changes are recorded in the reports of the presidents. In this report reference will be made only to changes in the personnel of the Board of Regents and the presidencies of certain institutions.
CHANGES IN PERSONNEL OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS
On January 1, 1963 the term of Mr. Robert 0. Arnold, Regent from the Fourth Congressional District, expired. On the same date the term of office of Mr. James C. Owen, Jr., Regent from the State-at-Large, came to an end.

At its meeting in November 1963 the Board named Mr. Earl Forest Hargett as President of the Brunswick College. Mr. Hargett is a native of Mississippi.

FACULTI.ES OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM In 1962-63 there were employ_ed in eigb,teen institutions of the University System 1,747 teachers with academic rank. This figure does not include employees in the divisions of organized research and extension even though they may have held academic rank. Figures on the Medical College are not included because many facu lty members in that institution devote a very large part of their time to clinical and research work . The eighteen institutions li sted in the following table bad 106 more faculty members in 1962-63 than they bad in 1961-62 . In view of the fact that the full-time equivalent enrollment in 1962-63 was 2,246 higher than it was during the preceding year, it is obvious that the increase in the number of faculty members was fully justified. The increase in fulltime equivalent students was 6.3 % and the increase in the number of faculty members was 6.1 % . The table that appears below shows the number of faculty member of various ranks in each of the eighteen institutions listed . It also shows the average salaries paid to faculty members in each of the four ranks. The salaries set forth are for work on a nine months basis. Those who taught during the summer quarter received additional compensation .

1 Includes 11 Lecturers with average salary of $6,491. " Includes 7 Lecturers with average salary of $5,668.
The average salaries of all teachers in institutions of the University System during 1962-63 was $7,372.00 on a nine months' basis as compared with $6,762.00 during the preceding year. The percentage increase from 1961-62 to 1962-63 was 9% .
The average salaries of all teachers in the University System rose from $7,372.00 in 1962-63 to $7,680.00 in 1963-64. This was an increase of approximately 4.2%.
Because of increased State funds that have been available for the operating budgets of University System institutions for 1964-65, it is estimated that average salaries of all teachers working on a nine months' basis in 1964-65 will be approximately $8,600.00. This is $920.00 above the corresponding figure for 1963-64 and represents an increase of 12% over the average salary paid in 1963-64.
The figures set forth in the table above indicate the salaries that were paid from State allocations and internal institutional income. The University of Georgia, the Georgia Institute of Technology, the Georgia State College, and some other institutions receive from alumni, business and industrial establishments, foundations, agencies of the federal govern-
7
ment, and other sources funds for supplementing the salaries paid to outstanding faculty members. ln riiost cases ffiese supplements are relatively small, but they have, nevertheless, enabled institutions to retain the services of faculty members who were considering attractive offers from other institutions, and they have made it possible for institutions to bring in new faculty members of very superior abilities.
Aerial photograph, Columbus College Campus WORKLOAD OF FACULTY MEMBERS
The figures in the next table show the number of faculty members and other teachers , in terms of full-time equivalents, who taught in each institution of the University System during the 1962-63 academic year. The figures include only those who taught at the college level and were paid from State funds . In arriving at these figures, time devoted by faculty members to non-teaching duties has been excluded , and time given to teaching duties by persons without faculty rank has been included.
The second column shows the average number of students per teacher in each of the institutions.
The third column indicates the average number of hours per week that faculty members in each of the institutions devoted to teaching duties. Hours given to preparation for classes, grading of papers, conferences with students, committee work, and other non-teaching duties are not included.
8
The fourth and last column shows the average teaching load in terms of student quarter hours for faculty memb~s in each of the institutions. A course that meets five times each week during a quarter carries five quarter hours credit. If a teacher conducts such a course for twenty students, his teaching load for that course is one hundred student quarter credit hours.

A comparison of figures in the above table for 1962-63 with corresponding figures for 1961-62 indicates that, while there was an increase in the number of students and faculty members, the average number of students per teacher and the average teaching load per teacher for the University System as a whole remained practically the same.
fACULTY TURNOVER 1962-63 The figures in the next table show the number of faculty members who were employed in each institution during 1961-62; the number who, for various reasons, did not continue as faculty members during 1962-63; and the number of replacements and new appointments that were made for 1962-63.
9
A study of the figures will indicate that the institutions during 1962-63 did not have the services of 248 teachers.. who were employed during 1961-62. The figures also indicate that during 1962-63 the institutions employed 354 teachers who were not employed by them in 1961-62. The rate of turnover was practically the same as for the preceding year.

COMMENTS ON WORK OF FACULTY MEMBERS
From all institutions of the University System come reports that the professional qualifications of faculty members are better than ever before. It is also true that the quality of the academic work of both teachers and students is improving at a rapid rate.
The higher salary levels and the policies regarding salary supplements are making it possible for a number of institutions to secure the services of teachers and scholars of national renown. Faculty members in increasingly large numbers are seeking the highest degrees obtainable in their respective fields and many faculty members are requesting leaves for advanced study and post-doctoral work. The development of strong doctoral programs at the University of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology have made it easier for many faculty members in the University System to take advanced graduate work.
10
The improved qualifications of faculty members at all levels coupled with a determination on their pa!1 Jo make tbe academic work in institutions of the University System equal to that at leading institutions throughout the country will undoubtedly produce remarkably fine results within a relatively short period of time.
NUMBER OF GRADUATES DURING 1962-63
During 1962-63 the senior and professional institutions of the University System granted 5573 degrees. The comparable figure for 1961-62 was 5040.
The figures set forth below indicate the number and type of degrees conferred and the number of certificates and diplomas granted by the various institutions of the University System during the 1962-63 academic year. The figures include degrees and diplomas awarded in the Summer of 1962 and in June 1963.

BREAKDOWN OF RESIDENT ENROLLMENT
The next table shows the breakdown of cumulative enrollments during the 1962-63 regular session as between men and women and also as between veterans and non-veterans.
It may be of interest to note that the percentage increase in enrollment of men students in 1962-63 was practically the same as the increase for the preceding year. The percentage increase in the enrollment of women students was much smaller. The 1961-62 enrollment of women students was 15.6% above the 1960-61level. The 1962-63 enrollment of women was only 5.8% above the 1961-62level.
The enrollment of veteran students continues to decline at a rapid rate. The veteran student enrollment in 1962-63 was 913 as compared with 1,430 in 1961-62 and 2,340 in 1960-61.

FINANCIAL AID TO STUDENTS
The percentage of graduates of high schools in Georgia who go on to college after graduation is smaller than the percentages in most of the states. Careful studies reveal that very large numbers of qualified high school graduates in Georgia fail to go to college because they lack the financial means with which to finance a college education. If the best interests of the State will be promoted by having larger numbers of welleducated young people, then some public effort should be made to provide financial assistance for young men and women of outstanding ability and promise who cannot go to college without such assistance.
In 1958 the voters of the State approved an Amendment to the Constitution that permits the General Assembly to appropriate public funds to the Board of Regents for the purpose of providing scholarships for students attending institutions of the University System. Acting under the authorization of this Amendment to the Constitution, the General Assembly at its 1961 session appropriated $100,000.00 to the University System for student scholarships. This money became available during the 1961-62 academic year. The money was allotted to the institutions on the basis of their enrollments of students who were residents of the State of Georgia.
The General Assembly at its 1962 session renewed the appropriation of $100,000.00. This money was available during 1962-63, and the same amount was made available for the 1963-64 academic year.
At its regular session in 1964 the General Assembly increased the appropriation for scholarship purposes to $200,000.00. This will enable hundreds of students to attend college who, without such scholarship aid, would not be able to do so.
23
Another important source of financial aid for students is the National Defense Student Loan Program t!!at was .established under the National Defense Education Act of 1958. The Act provides for the creation, at American colleges and universities, of loan funds from which needy undergraduate and graduate students may borrow money on reasonable terms for the purpose of completing their higher education.
The Act permitted any one institution to receive as much as $250,000.00 of federal funds during a fiscal year and required an institution to put up $1.00 in local matching funds for each $9 .00 of federal funds received. Congressional appropriations for the support of this program have been increasing. In December 1963 Congress provided $125 ,000,000.00 for the program during the 1963-64 fiscal year and raised the amount that any one institution can receive from $250,000.00 to $800,000.00 during a fiscal year. The total amount of federal funds that will be available during 1964-65 is $135 ,000,000.00. Georgia institution were authorized to receive $1 ,528,301.00 in 1962-63. Under the 1963 Amendment Georgia institutions will be eligible to receive $2,122,640.00 during the 1963-64 fiscal year and $2,292,45 L.00 during the 1964-65 fiscal year.
Ten institutions of the University System have participated to some extent in the National Defense Student Loan Fund since it was established in 1958-59. Two institutions began participating in 1959-60 and four began participating in 1962-63. Three institutions have never participated. These institutions are the Valdosta State College, the Augusta College, and Armstrong College.
Since the inception of the program, University System institutions have received $3 ,221 ,886.00 in federal funds. They have provided $358,-
Isaac Miller Science Building, Fort Valley State College
364.00 in matching funds. Approximately 60% of the matching funds came from institutional trust ful}ds, loan fJ.!nds, and scholarship funds. Most of the remaining part of the matching funds came from gifts and donations. State funds cannot be used for matching purposes, even though most of the loans will ultimately be repaid.
The institutions are finding it increasingly difficult to raise the funds needed to match federal grants. It is probable that many students in University System institutions will be deprived of the opportunity to borrow money unless some way can be found for the legal use of State funds for matching money available to the institutions under the National Defense Student Loan Program.
INSTITUTIONS AND INSTITUTIONAL ORGANIZATION In June 1961 the Board of Regents approved the establishment of a new junior college in the Brunswick-Glynn County area. Construction of buildings on the campus of the new college is now under way. The Brunswick College will be ready to accept students at the beginning of the Fall Quarter of 1964.
NEw JuNIOR CoLI.EGEs AuTHORIZED In 1963 and 1964 the Board of Regents approved the establishment of four new colleges. Approval for the establishment of a junior college in the AlbanyDougherty County area was granted at the Board meeting held in April 1963. In July 1963 the Board authorized the setting up of a junior college in the Dalton-Whitfield County area. At its meeting held on October 9, 1963 the Board approved a junior college for the Marietta-Cobb County section of the State. In March 1964 approval was given for the establishment of a junior college in the Gainesville-Hall County area. Sites have been chosen for the new junior colleges at Albany, Dalton, and Marietta and construction work will begin at sometime within the near future.
CONVERSION OF JUNIOR COLLEGES INTO SENIOR COLLEGES At its meeting held in May 1963 the Board authorized the conversion of the Armstrong College in Savannah and the Augusta College from junior colleges into four-year degree-granting institutions. Courses at the third year level will be offered by the Armstrong College for the first time in 1966. Courses at the third year level will be offered by the Augusta College beginning in September 1965.
25
In March 1964 the Board of Regents authorized the Georgia Southwestern College in Americus to become a fQUr-year institution. Courses at the third year level will be inaugurated by the Georgia Southwestern College in September 1966.
DEVELOPMENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA
After long and careful study, the Board of Regents at its meeting held on June 12, 1963 authorized the establishment of a School of Social Work at the University of Georgia. Operations of the School of Social Work will begin in September 1964.
The University of Georgia during the past year has made further progress toward the departmentalization of its College of Business Administration . The Board at its October 1963 meeting approved the establishment within the College of a Department of Management and a Department of Real Estate and Insurance. The setting up of these two new departments was made effective as of September 1963 .
NEW DEPARTMENTS AT GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE
At its December 1962 meeting the Board of Regents approved the establishment of a Department of Finance and a Department of Real Estate within the School of Business Administration of the Georgia State College.

In April 1963 the Board authorized the Georgia State College to establish a Chair of Private Enterprise. ~nds for the support of this Chair are provided by gifts from Mr. George West, Sr., and his son, Mr. Charles West. Additional funds for the support of the activities of this Chair come from a number of other sources.
INSTRUCTION The faculties of the institutions of the University System may add, discontinue, or revise courses of study within the framework of curricula that have been approved by the Board of Regents. In an effort to improve the quality of various instructional programs, the faculties during 1962-63 made many curricular changes. Institutions may establish new degree programs or new curricula only with the approval of the Board of Regents. There will be listed in this section some of the new programs that have received Board approval.

CONTINUING EMPHASIS ON GRADUATE PROGRAMS
It was pointed out in the Annual Report for 1961-62 that within the past few years there has been a phenomenal increase in the number of candidates for master's and doctor's degrees. This strong upward trend continued during 1962-63. This fact is largely responsible for the establishment of many new programs leading to graduate degrees.
31
PROGRAM OF TESTING, GUIDANCE, AND COUNSELING
In the office of the Board of -Regents a8d in the institutions of the University System much thought and study are being given to programs of testing, guidance, and counseling. There is reason to believe that testing procedures have been developed that measure with a high degree of accuracy the capacity of students for doing college work. Every institution in the System is trying to provide students with helpful counseling services. Students are responding to these efforts with a surprising degree of enthusiasm.
Dr. John R. Hills, Director of the University System Office of Testing and Guidance since 1958, has submitted the following report on some of the activities of his office during 1962-63:
"During the fiscal year 1962-63 the principal characteristic of the Office of Testing and Guidance has been continuation of our efforts to develop sound testing, guidance, and admissions programs based on the findings of competent research. Continued progress has been made on long term follow-up studies of freshman classes entering since Fall, 1957. By July, 1963, studies for eight institutions had been completed and the ninth was started.
"Continued staff turnover has handicapped progress to some extent. Mrs. Lewis resigned on June 30 as Research Assistant. She and her husband moved to Cartersville. Her replacement is Miss Marilyn Bush, a recent recipient of the master's degree in educational research from Florida State University.
"It is anticipated that the rate of progress on these studies will increase next year for a variety of reasons: Miss Bush is sufficiently well trained to require only a short period before becoming fully productive. Previously, new Research Assistants have required extensive in-service training. Mr. Klock has spent much of the past year programming analyses for high-speed computers. While that resulted in delay last year, the time should be more than recovered in the future. Finally, all other activities of Mr. Klock and Miss Bush will be limited until these studies are completed. Hopefully, every college will receive its analysis by the end of next fiscal year.
"It has now been nearly three years since the position of Associate Director was created in order to stimulate development of sound counseling and guidance programs in each of the System colleges. The general approach toward this problem thus far has been to make an advisor available as needed to all System colleges in the person of the Associate Director. A more effective approach may be for the Associate Director to concentrate his attention on two or three colleges at a time, helping
32
their programs in guidance and counseling to reach such maturity that their continued rapid growth .in scope, ..efficiency, and competence is assured. At that time his attention would be devoted to two or three other of the remaining colleges, until, eventually, all the System institutions needing such concentrated assistance have been accommodated. This approach will be put into practice during the new fiscal year, 1963-64.
"Since more demands for assistance, research, and consultation are being made than the Office can handle promptly and thoroughly, during the coming year we will seek to develop greater inter-institutional cooperation in testing and guidance within the University System. There are twenty-five or so qualified people in testing and/or guidance scattered through the System who might serve as consultants, advisors, or researchers for sister institutions in need of the help of such people on a temporary or interim basis. As requests come to the Office of Testing and Guidance in excess of those which can be met with dispatch and integrity, we will attempt to arrange for experts in the System to be brought into play. This procedure, if successful, may be less expensive than adding to the staff of the Regents' Office, and it may help foster cooperation, understanding, and appreciation among System institutions."
For the past three years Dr. Harry S. Downs has served as Assistant Director of the University System Office on Testing and Guidance. Dr. Downs has been particularly interested in helping the institutions to develop programs of counseling services for students that are really effective.
Dr. Downs has submitted the following statement on some of the work that he did during the past year:
"Work with each University System institution was continued in an effort to assist and stimulate the further development of student personnel services. Most institutions now provide professional counseling services for students. Special assistance was given to seven institutions in locating professionally-trained personnel to fill student personnel positions.
"One conference for University System Student Personnel Workers was held in February 1963. Dr. Dugald Arbuckle of Boston University served as consultant and speaker for the conference. Representatives of all University System institutions participated in the conference. In addition, a special 'Conference on Orientation Programs' was held for representatives of six institutions.
"A pilot study was made of the graduating classes at four senior institutions. This study was designed to ascertain the post-college plans of graduating students and to gather additional information useful in evalu-
33
ating counseling services. Special attention was given to the number and characteristics of students planning_ to enter ~raduate and professional schools.
"Work was continued on a student record form being developed for use in junior colleges. The form was used on an experimental basis at one junior college during the year. After further revision, the form will be made available for use in all University System junior colleges.
"A special study was made of the regulations for administering the Regents' Scholarship program and of the application form used in this program. Recommendations for changes in the regulations were formulated for presentation to the Board of Regents."
SCHOLARSHIPS FOR NEGRO STUDENTS
The Board of Regents during I962-63 continued to make scholarships available to Negro students for the purpose of enabling them to secure in institutions outside the University System certain types of graduate and professional work. The scholarship aid takes care of the difference between the cost of attending a University System institution and the cost of attending the institution in which the student decides to enroll.
During 1962-63 scholarship grants were made to 1,233 students. Of this number, 578 were men and 655 were women. The scholarship recipients took graduate or professional work at 89 colleges and universities. With the exception of Atlanta University, all of these institutions were outside the State of Georgia.
Students receiving scholarships during 1962-63 took work in some one of 57 major fields. The area in which most students did their major work was Education. In this field there were 697 students majoring in 17 different areas of concentration.
It is significant that a decline is taking place in the number of scholarship recipients who major in Education. In 1960-61 there were I, 175 majors in Education. In 1961-62 the number of Education majors dropped to I ,084, and in 1962-63 it dropped still further to a figure of 697.
The total number of scholarship recipients declined from I ,425 in 1961-62 to 1,233 in I962-63. The cost of the program in 1962-63 was $207,525.87. This is $28,598.86 less than the cost in 1961-62. This is the third consecutive year in which there has been a decline in the cost of the program.
34
REGIONAL EDUCATION BOARD
The contractual relationships between "the Board of Regents and the Southern Regional Education Board were continued during 1962-63. During the 1962-63 fiscal year the Board of Regents paid to the Regional Board a total amount of $65,000.00 for the following purposes:
For operation of the Regional Board For research program in Mental Health For 16 students at Meharry Medical College For 4 students in Veterinary Medicine at
Tuskegee Institute
$15,000.00 8,000.00
36,000.00
6,000.00
Total
$65,000.00
Under a contract with the Regional Education Board, the School of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Georgia accepts students from the States of South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland. During 1962-63 the University of Georgia received under the contract with the Regional Board the sum of $I 96,500.00 for providing instructional services in Veterinary Medicine for I 31 students from these four states.
RESEARCH AND PUBLICATIONS
In practically all institutions of the University System there is increasing emphasis on research because of the contributions that it can make to the educational programs of the institutions and because of its cultural and economic value to the people of the State.
The major research programs must necessarily be carried on in the larger institutions with graduate and research programs and with extensive library and research facilities. In other institutions, however, some significant research programs are under way.
UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA
Most of the general research work at the University of Georgia is done by faculty members working under the supervision of the Director of General Research who is also Dean of the Graduate School. The University's applied research programs are, for the most part, conducted in agricultural experiment stations located in various parts of the State. The activities of the several experiment stations are coordinated through the office of the Director of Agricultural Research who maintains headquarters in Athens.
35
GENERAL RESEARCH
During 1962-63 research activities were conducted by faculty members in every department of the University. Some projects were handled by individual faculty members and other projects were conducted by organized agencies within the University including The Bureau of Educational Studies and Field Services, The Institute of Law and Government, the Bureau of Business Research, the Institute of Community and Area Development, the Marine Biology Station on Sapelo Island, and other organizations.
In the past year 159 faculty members devoted all or a part of their time to general research. This was an increase of 30 over the preceding year.
Research productivity, as revealed through publications, has shown a marked increase in recent years. During 1962-63 170 research papers prepared by faculty members were published, 251 papers were in press at the end of the year. Other papers were presented at meetings of scholarly, scientific, and professional organizations. Research reports published-or ready for publication-and presented during the year reached a total of 510. The corresponding figure for 1961-62 was 444.
In addition to money provided from State funds for general research, 108 new and renewal research grants, totaling $1,925,976.00, were received by the University research faculty during 1962-63. Fifty-three of the grants in an aggregate amount of $1,560,347.00 came from six agencies of the federal government. Twenty-two grants totaling $365,629.00 were received from other sources.
The University did not budget all of the grant funds received during 1963. The University's actual expenditures from all sources for General Research during the past year amounted to $1,905,305.18.
The annual report of the University and its various divisions give detailed information about the nature and scope of the various projects that were financed through the budget for General Research.
AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH
The agricultural research program of the University of Georgia is carried on through three main experiment stations and several branch and field stations. The programs of the several stations are coordinated through the office of the Director of Agricultural Research of the College of Agriculture.

Funds for the support of the agricultural research program are derived from State appropriations, from the federal government, from gifts, grants, and endowments, and from sales and services. From these sources the Agricultural Experiment Stations during 1962-63 received a total income of $5,200,376.31. The stations received $2,172,500.00 under allocations from the Board of Regents. Total expenditures by the Agricultural Experiment Stations during 1962-63 amounted to $5,074,672.26.
During the past year approximately 300 full-time research workers of professional rank in the Agricultural Experiment Stations were engaged in work on more than 500 projects. These studies covered every phase of the farming, livestock, and poultry work in the State and they also dealt with the processing and marketing of agricultural products. Detailed descriptions of the research projects will be found in the published Annual Report of the Agricultural Experiment Stations.
The research programs of the Agricultural Experiment Stations during 1962-63 resulted in the publication of 72 bulletins, circulars, and mimeographed leaflets; 80 numbered journal articles; 284 unnumbered articles; four quarterly magazines, and an annual report.
The employees of the Experiment Stations make many speeches before civic and community organizations. They participate in various radio and television programs. They judge fairs and exhibits. They conduct short courses at the Stations and at other places in the State. The Experiment Stations are continuing their programs of diagnosing plant and animal diseases and of testing samples of soil for the farmers of Georgia.
GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
For the past four years the Georgia Institute of Technology has carried in its budget funds for the support of academic research by persons who devote some of their time to the instructional programs of the institution. Some State funds are used for the support of the academic research program; most of the money, however, comes from grants for special projects. During 1962-63 the Georgia Institute of Technology spent $576,628.01 for the support of its academic research program.
Most of the research work at Georgia Tech is conducted through the Engineering Experiment Station and its various divisions. During 1962-63 work was done on 323 separate and distinct projects. Of these projects, 79 were financed by business and industrial concerns, 134 by agencies of the federal government, 18 by contracts with the State and local governmental agencies, 65 with funds allotted by the Board of Regents, and 27 with funds from other sources.
37
The total income of the Engineering Experiment Station during 1962-63 was approximately $3 ,675 000.00, of which $881,500.00 came as an allotment from the Board of Regents. From the Regents' allotment, $80,000.00 was transferred to the academic research program .
During the past year there were 259 publications by members of the faculty and staff of the Georgia Institute of Technology and Engineering Experiment Station , as compared with 158 such publications during the preceding year.

GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE
The amount of research, both organizes and personal, and the surprisingly large number of publications reflect the desire and the efforts
of faculty members to do some research work of a really significant
nature. The members of the faculty are handicapped in the development
of their research plans because of the limited amount of money that the
College has for the support of research.
Dr. Willys Knight, Director of the Bureau of Business and Economic
Research, has been responsible for a tremendous number of research
activities in the field of his interest. The Atlanta Economic Review has
served as an important medium for carrying to the reading public the
printed results of the research efforts of the faculty. The following table indicates the types of publications of works by
faculty members during the past year:

The College received a number of grants for the support of research
projects. Some of the College's own funds were used for this purpose. Most of the research work, however, was done by faculty members whose
entire salaries were paid from instructional budgets. The amount of money that was spent by the Georgia State College
during 1962-63 from funds specifically budgeted for research was $122,364.36.
THE MEDICAL COLLEGE OF GEORGIA
The research program of the Medical College of Georgia is expanding at a very rapid rate.
Research projects at the Medical College fall into one or more of the following categories:
1. Research related to general areas of study 2. Research as related to medical problems 3. Research as related to basic physiology, anatomy, and biochemistry During 1962-63 the Medical College received research grants from the National Institutes of Health in a total amount of $1,264,749.00. Private health agencies awarded $122,524.00 to the Medical College for
39
research projects. Pharmaceutical and related firms made available $42,078.53 for research. The Medical Resoorch Foundation of Georgia gave the Medical College $56,965.23 for research purposes. The total amount of grants for research that were received from these and other sources was $1 ,508,317.36. No State governmental agency made available any funds for direct research.
Practically every member of the faculty of the Medical College is engaged in some form of research work. During 1962-63 work was going forward on 269 research projects. This is a vast increase over the number of projects handled during 1961-62. During 1962-63 faculty members wrote a number of books and several chapters for books. The total number of publications of this type was 31. The faculty also published 133 articles and abstracts.
RESEARCH WORK AT OTHER INSTITUTIONS
At the West Georgia College the staff of the Office of Dean of Students is very active in institutional research. During the past year studies were made to determine the effect of housing on grades and to learn more about student reactions to various student activity programs. A study was made of members of the senior class for the purpose of securing information about their plans after graduation and of obtaining an evaluation of the services offered by the West Georgia College. During the year the faculty completed and published its institutional self-study which was begun in the Fall of 1961.
At the North Georgia College Dr. J. C. Simms, Professor of Chemistry, participated i11 the Chemical Research Program of the University of Tennessee with aid of a National Science Foundation grant. Mr. Charles M. Yager, Professor of Physics, received a grant from the Atomic Energy Commission to support a study of the properties of metallic ions.
At The Woman's College of Georgia at least thirteen members of the faculty were engaged in some type of research activity. Dr. Joseph Vincent is continuing his studies of phosphorus compounds. Dr. Harold Jones has compiled an inventory of Georgia's natural resources in the central portion of the State. It includes State, national, and privately operated parks and recreation centers.
At the Georgia Southern College several faculty members received grants from the National Science Foundation for research projects. The Research Committee of the College is trying to encourage scholarly research by making relatively small grants to faculty members whose research projects are approved by the Committee. During 1961-62 and 1962-63 thirteen grants were made to faculty members to support approved research studies.
40
The Valdosta State College has no program of organized research work. Many of the younger faculty membe~:s with doctorates want very much to be relieved of some teaching duties so that they may have more time for research. During the past year several faculty members were engaged in some type of research effort. Dr. Maurice Lindauer, Associate Professor of Chemistry, published during the year two articles-one in the Journal of Organic Chemistry and the other in the Journal of Chemical Education. Dr. Ann K. Healy, Professor of Education, had three of her articles published in professional journals.
At the Georgia Southwestern College two members of the staff of the Charles L. Mix Memorial Fund, Inc., who held courtesy appointments on the faculty of the College, were engaged in full-time research work. Two members of the faculty were doing research work in partial fulfillment of the requirements for doctors' degrees.
At the Augusta College six members of the faculty were doing some research work in order to meet the requirements for doctorates. The institutional self-study entered its second year. Many faculty members and committees of the faculty are participating in this study.
The Columbus College completed its institutional self-study in August 1962. During 1962-63 five other institutional research projects were completed or underway. During the past year a faculty research seminar was organized by the Dean for the purpose of sharing ideas in the area of general research.
At the South Georgia College the only research work done by faculty members was to satisfy the requirements for graduate degrees.
At the Armstrong College four members of the faculty were engaged in research and creative work of various types. These efforts resulted during the past year in the publication of two articles and a textbook in Mathematics.
The Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College conducted three institutional research projects that were designed to enrich the education of junior college students.
At the Albany State College several faculty members were engaged in research work of some type. These studies resulted in the preparation of six research papers. These papers were published during the year in the Faculty Research Bulletin-1962-63.
Eighteen members of the faculty of the Fort Valley State College did some kind of research and creative work during the year. Twelve scholarly articles were written by members of the faculty. Seven of these articles were published in the Fort Valley State College Bulletin, Faculty Contributions to Education Number of May 1963. The other five articles appeared in professional publications.
41
At the Savannah State College a considerable number of faculty members were doing research work during the ear. Fourteen articles were prepared for publication. Eight of these articles appeared in the Facuity Research Bulletin of the Savannah State College. Six articles were presented in professional journals and in special bulletins.
LIBRARIES
The Board of Regents recognizes that an adequate and well-staffed library is essential to any college or university that expects to do instructional and research work of a high quality. Through the years the Board has been trying to provide all institutions with library buildings that are adequate in size and that are suitable for the uses that are to be made of them.
During 1962-63 a new library building was completed at the Medical College of Georgia at a cost of $605,918.00. During the year new library facilities were constructed for the Georgia Southwestern College at Americus and an annex was added to the library building at the Fort Valley State College.
In 1962-63 the teaching institutions of the University System spent $1,985,371.85 for the operation of their libraries. This figure does not include a library expenditure of $12,656.43 at the Southern Technical Institute, a division of the Georgia Institute of Technology, and neither does it include library expenditures of $32,783.25 at the Agricultural Experiment Stations at Griffin and Tifton. The University System total expenditures for library purposes during 1962-63 amounted to $2,030,811.53. The comparable figure for 1961-62 was $1,748,145.62.
During 1962-63 there was a net increase of 100,724 in volumes held in institutional libraries. This brings the total book holdings in University System libraries, including 32,601 volumes in libraries of the Agricultural Experiment Stations, to 1,529,226. This figure represents the number of bound volumes. It does not include technical reports, government documents, maps, slides, recordings, and other materials of a like nature.
Most of the institutions now have open stacks and no record is kept of the use of books in the libraries. All institutions report, however, that more and more students and faculty members are doing work in the libraries. Figures on the numbers of books taken from the libraries and used outside the libraries continue to increase rapidly.
The following table shows the number of volumes added to each institutional library during 1962-63 and the total number of volumes in the library of each institution at the end of the 1962-63 academic year.

PUBLIC SERVICES
There will be presented in this section of the report a brief statement regarding some of the non-credit instructional programs that are offered by some institutions of the University System. These non-credit instructional programs consist, to a considerable extent, of institutes, short courses, and conferences that bring together groups of people with common interests. These meetings serve many valuable purposes. One of the principal objectives is to keep professional workers, leaders in business and industry, and workers in many fields informed about the progress that is taking place in their respective fields. Advances in knowledge and new developments are taking place so rapidly in the world about us that the person who does not keep abreast of these changes is soon out of touch with the latest thoughts and most approved practices in his field of endeavor.
43
The public service programs also include the personal conferences and consultations that staff members_ of the ins.t.itutions have with individual citizens of the State. In these personal conferences on specific problems in which a citizen may have a particular interest some of the most effective educational work is done.
The two institutions with well-organized and comprehensive programs of public service are the University of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology. Other institutions offer a wide variety of personal services, but, since they do not have special staffs for this type of work, the scope of their programs of public service is necessarily limited.
Some comments will be made on the public service programs of the institutions.
UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA
The University of Georgia's programs of public service are conducted through the Continuing Education Center, the Agricultural Extension Service, and other agencies of the University.
THE CoNTINUING EDUCATION CENTER. The Continuing Education Center conducts off-campus centers at various locations in the State and it offers extension classes and correspondence courses in communities that are not served by off-campus centers. The student enrollments in these programs that carry academic credit are set forth in the section of this report that is entitled Students.
The Continuing Education Center offers on the campus of the University in Athens conferences and institutes for various groups of adult citizens of the State.
During 1962-63 there were 650 conferences at the Center in Athens. These conferences were attended by 36,463 persons. The conferences were conducted under the sponsorship of ten schools and colleges of the University and the Institute of Community and Area Development. The conferences had many different objectives. Some were designed to help people improve economic conditions in the State; others were designed to teach people how to participate more intelligently in civic and political affairs; and still others were designed to promote health and assist citizens in improving the cultural life and the recreational activities of the State.
During 1962-63 Station WGTV, the educational television station of the University, completed its third year of operation. During 1962-63 the University also offered educational television programs during the evening hours over WXGA-TV at Waycross, a station that is owned by the State Department of Education.
44
The educational television programs of the University have been enthusiastically received by the pe?ple of the...State.
AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION SERVICE. The Cooperative Extension Service of the College of Agriculture extends the work of the University of Georgia in the fields of agriculture, home economics, and youth development to all the people of the State. The program of the Extension Service is dedicated to the improvement of all of the State's resources, both human and physical.
During 1962-63 county agents, home demonstration agents, and their associates made more than 221,000 visits to farms and homes within the State. They conducted approximately 6,500 training meetings for some 126,000 local leaders who assisted in county extension programs. County agents and home demonstration agents also conducted 58,000 meetings for adults and young people and presented information and advice to 2,304,000 persons.
In the Georgia 4-H Club program there are enrolled 143,207 boys and girls. No State has a larger number of 4-H Club members. Of the total membership, 52,130 were farm youth, 41,734 rural non-farm boys and girls, and 49,303 residents of urban areas. Girls outnumbered boys by about 7,000.
Home Demonstration Clubs in the State had 32,158 members. Home demonstration agents and other trained leaders conducted during the year more than 19,000 meetings that were attended by 475,000 home makers. The object of these meetings was to improve the quality of life in homes and in local communities.
The Agricultural Extension Service must necessarily rely heavily on mass communication methods for reaching many of the people of the State. During the past year the Service distributed more than a million copies of ninety-nine different bulletins, circulars, and periodicals.
The programs of the Agricultural Extension Service are supported with funds provided by the State, the federal government and the counties. In 1962-63 the Extension Service received from the Board of Regents an allocation of $2,127,000.00 for the support of its operations. The total amount of its income from all sources was $6,190,379.95. Expenditures for operations during 1962-63 amounted to $6,254,915.59.
There is a printed bulletin that describes in detail the various phases of work that are conducted by the Agricultural Extension Service. Anyone who desires a copy of this publication should write to the Director of the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of Georgia in Athens.
45
OTHER PUBLIC SERVICES OF THE UNIVERSITY. There are many agencies of the University that undertake" to provide public services of various types for the people of the State. Brief mention will be made of some of these agencies.
The Institute of Law and Government sponsored during the past year thirty short courses, institutes, and conferences for attorneys and for public officials of the State and local governments. It conducted research studies for governmental agencies, including the Criminal Law Study Committee, the Georgia Forest Research Council, and the Board of Pardons and Paroles.
In 1962-63 the Institute of Community and Area Development completed its second full year of operation. During the year it provided assistance to communities in 125 counties of the State and to 12 organized area development groups that embrace 109 counties. It published many studies on community improvement and organization. Requests for these publications have come from many countries throughout the world.
The University Press published twelve books and reprinted five others. The Georgia Review, a quarterly magazine, now has a circulation of 2,000. The Art Museum under the direction of Mr. Alfred Holbrook is attracting each year a greater number of visitors. The Georgia Press Institute, the Bureau of Business Research, the Bureau of Educational Statistics and Field Services, and other agencies of the University are continuing to provide services of inestimable value to the people of Georgia.
GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
The Engineering Extension Division of the Georgia Institute of Technology is responsible for the operations of the Evening School and the Southern Technical Institute. It also offers programs of short courses on the campus in Atlanta and at other places in the State.
The Evening School and the Southern Technical Institute offer courses of study for which academic credit is given. Figures on enrollments in courses carrying academic credit are set forth in the section on Students.
+-- Classroom Building, Georgia Institute of Technology
47
The Extension Division offers some programs of work for which no credit toward a degree is given. -Programs sf this type will be discussed briefly in this section.
In 1962-63 the Department of Short Courses and Conferences conducted forty-nine short courses and nine conferences-a total number of fifty-eight programs. The total number of programs offered in the preceding year was fifty-three. In 1962-63 programs in several new areas were offered. The officials of the Extension Division feel that Georgia Tech has made considerable progress in recent years in short course adult education, but they also feel that Georgia Tech has only scratched the surface in meeting adult education needs in engineering and the related profession. Each day brings requests for new programs and the expansion of existing programs.
In the areas of Industrial Education and Fire Institute Programs, Mr. T. H. Quigley and the members of his staff have continued to render a valuable and urgently needed service to the State. The enrollment in these programs increased from 5,777 in 1961-62 to 5,879 in 1962-63.
At the end of the 1962-63 year Mr. T. H. Quigley retired from the headship of the Department of Industrial Education after thirty-seven years of service.

In 1962-63 the total amount of expenditures for educational and general purposes was $59,690,~48.65. J'b.is figure is $7,212,240.87 higher than the amount that was spent for similar purposes during 1961-62.
The two items showing the largest increases are Instruction and Research. Expenditures for Instruction were $3,306,628.62 higher in 1962-63 than they were in 1961-62. This increase resulted from the employment of more faculty members for the increased student enrollment and from the higher salaries that were paid to teachers. The increase in expenditures for Research is attributable to the growing volume of contract research and to the expansions that are being made in general research programs conducted by regular faculty members. A considerable amount of new research work is necessary to support the programs of advanced graduate work that are now being conducted by some institutions.
The figures in the next table show the percentage of the total expenditures that was made for each of the several divisions of the educational and general program for 1961-62 and 1962-63. A comparison of these percentages indicates that they were practically the same for both years.

STATE ALLOCATIONS PER STUDENT TO INSTITUTIONS OF THE
UNIVERSITY SYSTEM, 1962-63
The figures in the next table show the State allotment per student that was made to each of the several institutions of the University System for 1962-63.
The first column shows the State allotment to each institution for educational and general purposes during 1962-63. The second column
57
shows the average number of full-time equivalent students registered in each institution during the regular__nine mqntl,ls session of 1962-63. The third column shows the State allocation per student on the basis of the number of full-time equivalent students taking work during the regular session.
Most of the institutions of the University System conduct classes during the summer as well as during the regular nine months' session and some institutions offer instruction during the evening hours and on Saturdays. In order to arrive at figures that will reflect the total costs of aU phases of the educational and general programs, the total number of quarter credit hours offered for students of all types in each institution has been divided by 50. The figure 50 represents the approximate number of quarter hours credit that a full-time student in the University System may earn during an academic year of three quarters. The fourth column shows the approximate number of full-time equivalent students registered in all of the various programs of each institution. The last column , which shows the amount of State funds allotted for the offering of 50 quarter credit hours of work in each institution of the System, affords a fairly accurate basis for the comparison of costs in the several institutions of the University System.

The preceding table shows that there are considerable differences in the amounts of State funds that institutions receive on a per student basis. These differences are attributable largely to variations in the nature and level of instructional programs, and to variations in the internal income situations in the institutions. The Board of Regents tries to give to each institution an allocation that, when added to the institution's internal income, will enable the institution to discharge properly and effectively the duties and functions assigned to it.
INCOME OF INSTITUTIONS OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM, 1962-63
The operating budgets of the institutions are made on the basis of money received from the State and income derived from fees and other sources. The statement set forth on pages 60 and 61 of this report indicates the sources from which each institution received income and the amount of income derived from each source.

The table set forth above takes into consideration not only State income, but also income received by the institutions from various sources for both instructional and non-instructional purposes. Since the functions of some institutions are wholly instructional in their nature, and since these institutions received no money for non-instructional purposes, the figures set forth in the table do not afford a basis for an altogether accurate comparison of the percentage of total income received by institutions from student fees and the percentage of total income that was received from the State for instructional costs.
Mr. Blissit, Treasurer of the Board of Regents, has prepared a second table in which items of income for non-instructional purposes have been eliminated. The next table shows the percentage of institutional income for instruction that is received from the State, the percentage of income for instruction that is received from student fees, and the percentage of income for instruction that comes from other sources.

The next table shows the percentage of each institution's total expenditures that was used for each o_( the several purposes indicated. The figures do not reflect expenditures for research, extension, and other purposes not common to most institutions.
The variations in the percentages result from differences in the sizes of institutions, from variations in the types of instructional services and other services provided for students, and from differences in the nature and condition of physical plants.

EXPENDITURES PER STUDENT IN TERMS OF DOLLARS
The figures that are set forth in the next table show the amount per student, in terms of dollars, that each institution spent for each of the purposes indicated.
In arriving at these figures, all types of resident enrollment were taken into consideration. The figures are based on a number of fulltime equivalent students that was determined by dividing by 50 the total number of student quarter hours offered by each institution during 1962-63. The figure 50 represents the approximate number of quarter hours of work that is taken by a full-time student in the University System during an academic year of three quarters.
The figures in the last column indicate the total cost in terms of dollars for providing a student with instructional and other related services over a period of nine months-or one academic year.
In arriving at these figures, expenditures for operating laboratory and practice schools, for providing clinical facilities for medical students, and
66
other expenditures not common to most institutions have been excluded. A comparison of the 1961-62 cost figures with corresponding figures
for 1962-63 costs are, in most cases, slightly above the costs for the preceding year.

STATE APPROPRIATIONS FOR 1963-64 AND 1964-65
The State appropriation to the University System of Georgia for 1962-63 was $38,887,000.00. This was the largest appropriation that the University System had ever received for any year in its history up to that time.
All friends of higher education in Georgia have been gratified by additional increases in State funds that have been made available by the Governor, other State officials, and the General Assembly for 1963-64 and 1964-65.
The General Appropriation Act adopted during the early part of 1963 provided a total amount of $40,500,000.00 for the University System for the 1963-64 fiscal year. Of this amount, the sum of $3,600,000.00 was earmarked for the operation of the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital. An additional sum of $1,200,000.00 per year was earmarked for new University System Building Authority Lease Contracts. The additional appropriation for the financing of new building projects has enabled the Authority to sell additional bonds in the amount of $20,000,000.00. Architectural plans are now being prepared for building projects that
67
will be constructed with the proceeds of this bond issue. The General Appropriation Act of 1963...gave to the University System
for the 1964-65 fiscal year a total amount of $43,800,000.00. Included in this figure are items of $3,600,000.00 for the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital and $1,200,000.00 for rental payments to the University System Building Authority. The Appropriation Act of 1963 increased funds available to the University System for general operations during 1964-65 by the amount of $3,300,000.00.
The General Assembly at its 1964 regular session made even more generous provision for the University System than the General Assembly did in 1963. The General Assembly in 1964 made a $6,700,000.00 increase in the State appropriation to the University System for 1964-65, thus bringing the total State appropriation to the University System for 1964-65 to an all-time high figure of $50,500,000.00. Of the increase of $6,700,000.00, the sum of $200,000.00 was earmarked for additional support for the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital; the sum of $100,000.00 was earmarked for increases in Regents' Scholarships; $300,000.00 for a junior college established under the Junior College Act of 1958; and $3,500,000.00 for Authority Lease Rentals for the construction of new buildings on campuses of institutions of the University System. After making provision for the purposes for which funds were earmarked in the 1964 Appropriation Act, there was a balance of $2,600,000.00 left for general operations of the System. This amount, when added to the increase of $3,300,000.00 for 1964-65 for which provision was made in the 1963 Appropriation Act, brings the total increase for general operations during 1964-65 to $5,900,000.00.
Every person who is interested in the development of the University System of Georgia and in a better and more comprehensive program of higher education in Georgia will be eternally grateful for the assistance and generous financial support that have been provided for the University System by the Governor, various officials of the State, members of the General Assembly, members of the Board of Regents and other friends of higher education.
PHYSICAL PLANTS
During 1962-63 the Board of Regents continued its efforts to provide more adequate physical plants for the institutions of the University System. Without additional academic buildings and dormitories many institutions will not be able in the years immediately ahead to accept all qualified applicants who seek admission.

The General Assembly at its 1963 session appropriated to the University System the sum of $1,200,000.00 for financing rental charges during the first year on additional buifdings for institutions of the System. This enabled the University System to sell bonds in the amount of $20,000,000.00. The Building Authority will amortize the bond issue with the proceeds of rentals paid by the institutions.
With the proceeds of this bond issue, special allocations of funds received from the Governor, and funds derived from other sources, the Board of Regents was able to begin to make plans for additional projects on the campuses of eighteen institutions of the System. Plans for all of these proposed buildings were being developed at the close of the 1962-63 fiscal year. These projects, that have a total estimated cost of $23,157,258.00, are listed in the next table.

In the early part of 1964 the Board of Regents and the University System Building Authority, with the proceeds of a $4,000,000.00 bond issue and with funds available from other sources, made provision for the construction of new dormitories at seven institutions of the System. Architectural plans are now being prepared for these dormitories. The total estimated cost of these projects is $5,000,000.00. The institutions at which the dormitories are to be erected and the capacity of the dormitory at each institution are shown below.

It would seem that within recent years fairly generous provision has been made for new buildings and for new institutions of the University System. It now appears that during the 1964-65 fiscal year very substantial additional sums will become available for building purposes.
At its 1964 regular session, the General Assembly, under the leadership of Governor Sanders, made an appropriation of $3,500,000.00 to the University System to finance, through the University System Building Authority, the construction of other new facilities at institutions of the University System. It is estimated that annual appropriations of $3,500,000.00 together with net income from rental of space in new dormitories will enable the Building Authority to issue additional bonds in the amount of approximately $70,000,000.00. Of course, this money will not become available until the 1964-65 fiscal year.
A tentative list of the projects that are to be constructed with this new money has been prepared and it was tentatively approved by the Board of Regents at its March meeting. At a press conference on March 11 Governor Sanders announced the availability of new funds for building purposes and indicated the projects at the various institutions that had received tentative approval.
OTHER CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
In addition to construction work that is being financed with State funds or with funds derived from the proceeds of bond sales, work is going forward on other projects that will ultimately come under the jurisdiction of the University Syr.tem.
74
In the Summer of 1963 a contract was let for the construction of several buildings that will constitute the nuct'eus of a physical plant for the Brunswick College. Funds for the construction of these buildings are being provided by local governmental agencies. Construction work is going forward rapidly and the buildings are expected to be ready for use in September 1964.
In 1963 the Mills B. Lane Foundation gave to the Armstrong College money for the purchase of 220 acres of land that will constitute a new campus for the Armstrong College of Savannah. Mr. Donald Livingston of Savannah gave to the College an additional 30 acre tract of land that lies adjacent to the land that was purchased with a grant from the Mills B. Lane Foundation. This 250 acre tract will provide excellent campus facilities for the Armstrong College-both for present use and future expansion.
Architects are now preparing plans for buildings that will provide facilities for use by the Armstrong College on its new campus. It is probable that contracts for the construction of these buildings can be let in the Summer of 1964. Some of the money for the new construction work will come from local governmental sources. The new buildings are expected to be ready for use at the beginning of the Fall Quarter of 1965. Title to the properties will be vested in the corporation that is known as Regents of the University System of Georgia.
REPAIRS AND REHABILITATION
In addition to funds for maintenance and normal repairs the Board of Regents is continuing to set aside approximately $500,000.00 per year for special rehabilitation work on the campuses of the various institutions of the University System. Within the past twelve years the Board has made special allocations of approximately $8,500,000.00 for work of this type.
The physical condition of the buildings on the campuses of the institutions is now better than it has even been at any time in the past. There are still, however, many special situations that need attention and for which funds must in some way be provided.
LAND ACQUISITIONS
The need for land that may be used as sites for the many new buildings that are being constructed has made it necessary for several institutions to purchase lots, houses and lots, and tracts of land in close proximity to their existing campuses. During the past year the Georgia Institute of Technology has spent more for the purchase of additional land than
75
has any other institution of the System. In many instances owners have refused to sell their properties at prices offeree~'; and it has been necessary to resort to condemnation proceedings. Some of the proceedings are still pending and it is not yet known what the acquisition costs of some of the properties will be.
Other institutions that have recently found it necessary to spend considerable amounts of money for land are the University of Georgia, the Georgia State College, and the Medical College of Georgia.
During 1962-63 the University of Georgia, the Georgia Institute of Technology, the Georgia State College, and the Medical College were undertaking through Urban Renewal Projects to acquire additional lands for building space.
GIFTS AND GRANTS During 1962-63 the institutions of the University System of Georgia continued to receive gifts and grants for the support of their teaching and research programs and for student scholarships.

NEEDS OF THE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM
From year to year the Annual Reports of the University System and of the institutions have set forth in detail the need for additional money for the employment of new faculty members, for raising the levels of faculty salaries, for additional buildings and equipment, for books and supplies, and for many other purposes.
The officials of the State Government, the members of the General Assembly, and the people of the State have responded in a most generous manner to the appeals of the University System and its institutions. The Board of Regents and the officials of the institutions must now accept the responsibility for using wisely the additional funds that have been made available to them. There is every reason to believe that, with the increased financial support they have received, they will be able to broaden the scope and improve the quality of all educational programs of the System. It is hoped that the citizens of Georgia will be able to see in the very near future that the additional funds that they have given to the University System were wisely invested and that in the years
81
ahead these investments will yield rich returns to the State and its people. As more and more students enter our <;olleges and universities, there
will continue to be growing demands for money and new buildings, for the employment of additional faculty members, and for keeping salaries of teachers in line with the salaries paid in other states. We are confident that the people of Georgia want a great System of publicly-supported higher education and that they will be willing to provide for the maintenance of such a program.
CONCLUSION The Board of Regents and the personnel of the University System wish to express their gratitude to the Governor, State officials, and members of the General Assembly for their deep interest in the University System and for the many ways in which that interest has expressed itself. In no state has the system of higher education received from the state government better support and cooperation than the University System of Georgia has received from those who have acted for the State of Georgia. The Board of Regents wishes to thank the men and women who carry on the work of the University System for their dedicated services to their respective institutions and to the citizens of Georgia. No group could have discharged its duties more faithfully and with greater loyalty. The personnel of the University System and the people of Georgia owe a profound debt of gratitude to the members of the Board of Regents for the leadership that they have given to the cause of publiclysupported higher education in our State. The Regents have given generously of their time and they have worked tirelessly for the advancement of the interests of the University System and of those whom the University System serves.
Respectfully submitted, Harmon W. Caldwell
