REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY SYS.JEM OF GEORGIA
JAMES A. DUNLAP. CHAIRMAN GAINESVILLE. GEORGIA

Governor Carl E. Sanders State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia

September I , 1964

Dear Governor Sanders:
It is my pleasure to submit herewith in accordance with Section 32-12Y of Georgia Code Annotated, the report of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia for the year ending June 30, 1964.
You will note that the past year has been an eventful one, with considerable progress having been made. This was due, to a considerable extent, to the work of the Governor's Commission to Improve Education and the resulting legislation and appropriations by the General Assembly. I am sure you will likewise take considerable pleasure in reviewing these accomplishments, as they would not have been possible without your vision and leadership.
During the past year much was done to inform the people of the State of our needs, by emphasizing to them the truth about problems and opportunities in higher education. We have operated with the belief that if the people of the State were correctly and adequately informed about our needs, they would provide the impetus to move the State forward in the field of education.
You may be interested to know that we have informed all units of the University System of the Regents' policy to comply with the federal Ia\\ and to obtain for all of our people the maximum benefits in the field of education. I think that the wisdom of this policy is already being felt. not only by the absence of litigation that would have been extremely damaging to the educational processes, but also in our receiving federal funds that would not have been available to us had we taken the opposite course.
3

The effects of this aid will become increasingly evident iD the months to come.
We have also made considerable hea~ay in our efforts to encourage research of every type as well as to attract financial support for all purposes. The total research for 1963-64 amounted to S 17.7 3 1.040.00. We intend to continue our efforts in this field as not nearly enough 1s being done.
I should like to point out, however, that the task of upgrading the system of higher education in the State to the extent of meeting the needs has only begun. The present building program will do little more than take care of the University System's needs through 1966-67. AIso. as generous as salary increases were in recent years, particularly the average increase of 12 per cent in 1964-65, these raises have only begun to make us competitive for top-flight research and teaching personnel. Unless we become increasingly competitive with other institutions throughout the nation, we will not be able to maintain our progress in recruiting and holding faculty members with the superior qualifications necessary to the proper development of our universities and colleges.
I wish to thank you on behalf of every member of the Board for the support you have given to public higher education. We take pride in the progress the University System has been able to make with your support and leadership.
Sincerely.
James A. Dunlap

REPORT OF THE CHANCELLOR OF THE

UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA

- 1963-64 ACADEMIC YEAR

To

THE

MEMBERS

OF

THE

. BOARD OF

REGENTS,

UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA:

I submit herewith a report on the University System of Georgia for the year ending June 30, 1964. I do so in the absence of a Chancellor of the University System, since Dr. Harmon W. Caldwell retired from that position on July I, 1964. The progress of the System as we have tried to reflect it in the following pages was made under the wise leadership of the retired Chancellor, and to him should go the credit. We believe that the material in this report sheds accurate light on the life of the University System for the year 1963-1964.
The reports of the individual units of the System for 1963-1964 are in the files of the Office of the Board of Regents and may be inspected at any time. These reports, some of which have been printed and made available to the public, present in great detail the internal happenings and operations of the institutions. In this report we shall try to deal primarily with the programs and activities of the University System as a whole. We have tried to summarize as charts or tables certain factual data presented in the reports of the institutions.

Cordially yours,

Acting Chancellor

SUMMARY
This has been a year of mU<::h expansiQ_n and progress in the University System, in the physical facilities of the institutions, in student enrollments, in number of faculty members, in curricula and programs, and in financial support from the Governor and the General Assembly. There were improvements also in the quality and scope of academic and research work done within the System. We feel that this forward thrust in education will redound to the best interest of the State of Georgia. In his report to the Chancellor, President Edwin D. Harrison of the Georgia Institute of Technology had this to say with regard to the place of education in Georgia's future:
My fellow presidents of the units of the University Syst~m and I arc looking forward to the opportunity to provide young men and women of our State with educational opportunities that will d.?velop, through challenge, the utmost in their abilities. That Georgia will gradually, but surely, become the economic and industrial leader of the Southeast we do not doubt. . . . With full realization that progress is not automatic and does not come without some objection, we shall continue to direct our efforts toward providing as high a calibre of program in every area of endeavor as funds, facilities, and the academic abilities of our faculty and students will permit.
Enrollment
Enrollment in the University System continues to grow in proportion to the demand for higher education by the increasing number of qualified citizens. The cumulative student enrollm~nt in the nineteen institutions in the System was 47,139.
New Institutions
Brunswick College, the newest junior college, will open its doors in September 1964. Four additional junior colleges to be located in Marietta, Dalton, Gainesville, and Albany are in varying stages of development and will open in 1966 and 1967. A comprehensive study is currently being made of the State to identify additional communities for new junior colleges and to complete, for the immediate future, a system of junior colleges designed to serve the post-high-school educational needs of our State.
6

Three former junior colleges, Augusta College, Armstrong College of Savannah, and Georgia Southwestern College at Americus, are in the process of adding baccalaureate _degree prQgrams to their offerings in order to provide additional educational opportunities.
Research
Our three major universities and graduate schools, the University of Georgia, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Medical College of Georgia, received research grants and contracts exceeding $12.5 million in 1963-1964, an increase of approximately 44% over the $8.8 million received in 1962-63. State funds for research at these three institutions amounted to approximately $5 million in 1963-64, an increase of approximately 14% over the 1962-63 allocations.
New Programs
During the past year the Board of Regents approved the offering of six new Ph.D. programs and eleven graduate programs below the Ph.D. level in the University System graduate schools. Thirty new baccalaureate degree programs were approved in the senior colleges and universities, and two new programs in the junior colleges. These new programs reflect the emphasis being given to the development of graduate programs of study in Georgia.
Building Program
During the 1963-64 fiscal year, new buildings exceeding $19 million in cost were completed and put into use in the System, and buildings costing in excess of $15.5 million are presently under construction. Approximately $22.5 million has been made available for new buildings which are presently in the planning stage, and an additional $75.6 million has been authorized for construction of urgently needed facilities for higher education. New buildings completed by the University System institutions in 1963-64, those currently under construction, and additional buildings for which funds have been approved or authorized, represent a total value of approximately $133 million.
State Appropriations
State appropriations to the University System of Georgia have been increased from $42 million in 1963-64 to $50.5 million in 1964-65,
7

with a substantial portion of this increase going into faculty salaries on a merit basis. This, and additional increases in faculty salaries, will enable the University System institutions_to compete effectively for the services of outstanding teaching and research personnel. A growing shortage of such personnel throughout the nation requires that the intensity of this effort be continued without abatement.
Coordination of Education Beyond the High School
Discussions are under way and plans are being developed by the appropriate representatives of the Board of Regents and of the State Board of Education to insure close coordination of vocational-technical schools and public junior colleges. A cooperative approach is deemed essential in order to provide the highest quality of post-high-school education and to avoid duplication and overlapping of effort and expenditures.
General Planning
The progress made in the University System of Georgia during the past year is in keeping with sound planning for a system of public higher education for Georgia that will meet the needs of a growing State and a rapidly changing economy. This kind of planning will continue to guarantee the highest possible return on every dollar invested in higher education.

SECTION

Administrative Appointments

Resignations, retirements, and deaths brought about many changes in the personnel of the administrative staffs and faculties of the institutions of the University System. The annual reports of the presidents record these changes. In this report, only the changes in the personnel of the Board of Regents, the presidencies of the institutions, and the Board's staff are listed.
Regents
On January I, 1964, the seven-year term of Mr. Linton D. Baggs, Regent from the Sixth Congressional District, expired. On January 13, 1964, Governor Carl E. Sanders appointed Mr. G. L. Dickens, Jr., of Baldwin County, to succeed Mr. Baggs.

Dr. Alderman held the position of President of the Henderson College of the University of Kentucky from 1959 until he accepted the position as President of the Middle Georgia College.
Regents' Staff
With great reluctance and sincere regret the Board of Regents approved the request of Chancellor Harmon W. Caldwell that he be permitted to retire effective July I, 1964. Mr. Caldwell had served the State of Georgia and the University System for 36 years as a teacher in the public schools, as a Professor of Law, as Dean of the Law School of the University of Georgia, as President of the University of Georgia, and as Chancellor of the University System of Georgia.
During the sixteen years he served as Chancellor, the University System rose to a position of leadership throughout the nation; the expansion of the System as a whole has been unparalleled in the history of the State; the enrollment of students increased almost fifty per cent; appropriations from the General Assembly increased almost nine-fold; new colleges were added to the System and the groundwork was laid for the establishment of still other colleges as well as for the expansion of existing colleges; the building program expanded at a phenomenal rate to care for the ever-increasing enrollment; and a new building program, larger than any ever before undertaken, was begun.
With Chancellor Caldwell's encouragement, the various units of the System developed curricula to encompass the expanding corpus of knowledge for the benefit of students and scholars of Georgia. Outstanding achievements and advancement in graduate and research programs, especially in the sciences and technological fields, brought the University System to the forefront among the high-ranking educational institutions.
Chancellor Caldwell conducted the affairs of the University System with dignity and wisdom. He was dedicated to a program of the highest standards of quality in education, and created among the universities
12

and colleges of the University System a spirit of cooperation rarely found in a system composed of a large number of institutions with a wide diversity of objectives.
At its meeting on July 8, 1964, the Board of Regents honored Mr. Caldwell by naming him Chancellor Emeritus of the University System of Georgia.
Dr. S. Walter Martin, Vice Chancellor of the University System, was named Acting Chancellor upon the retirement of Chancellor Caldwell.
At its meeting on March I I , 1964, the Board of Regents established the position of Coordinator of Junior Colleges on the staff of the Chancellor. Dr. Harry S. Downs, former Associate Director of Testing and Guidance, was appointed to fill this newly-created position. The Coordinator of Junior Colleges is responsible for matters pertaining to junior colleges including assisting and facilitating the further development and coordination of existing junior colleges, planning and developing new junior colleges, and coordinating junior colleges with high schools, vocational-technical schools, and senior colleges.
At its meeting on May 13, 1964, the Board appointed Mr. Frederick Branch to the position of Assistant for Development in the Office of the Director of Plant and Business Operations. Mr. Branch is a graduate of the Georgia Institute of Technology and has had wide experience as an architect. He is a member of the American Institute of Architects and of its Georgia Chapter.
On July I, 1964, Mr. Robert Joiner accepted a position as Assistant to the Vice Chancellor. Mr. Joiner, a graduate of the University of Georgia, has had wide experience in newspaper and public relations work. Before joining the staff of the Board of Regents, Mr. Joiner was Assistant to the Director of the Governor's Commission to Improve Education in Georgia.
At the March meeting of the Board approval was given for changes in status for two members of the staff. Mrs. Hubert L. Harris. formerly Administrative Assistant, was named Assistant Executive Secretary of the Board of Regents, and Miss Carroll McMahon, Administrative Assistant, was named Administrative Assistant to the Chancellor.

SECTION
II

Faculties

The educational institution which expects to have quality academic work must have a strong faculty, a maxim applicable to the University System as a whole as well as to the individual units. The System is no stronger than its faculty and it is believed that the faculty for the past year has been the strongest which we have ever had. The presidents of the various units say that a larger number of their faculty members now hold the doctor's degree, more are doing significant research and publication, and a greater number are filling significantly the role of classroom teacher. The faculties are better known, are called on by the communities to do more public service, and are winning more awards and recognition than ever before.
Concerning the faculty of the University of Georgia, President 0. C. Aderhold says that
In terms of achievement, stability, financial resources, the past year has been encouraging. The fact is that one of the strongest, best prepared, and most involved faculties in the history of the University was available to meet the pressing demands of the people of Georgia.
One other quotation from an annual report is worthy of notation. President James E. Boyd of the West Georgia College claims that "intellectual ferment, enthusiasm, and dedicated professionals are phrases which seem most aptly to describe the faculty in 1963-1964."
What Presidents Aderhold and Boyd have said about their institutions is applicable to the faculties of the entire System.
It is significant that most of the presidents in their annual reports to the Chancellor said that the morale of the faculties was very good. This high morale has been reflected in excellent academic work, for no faculty can accomplish outstanding achievements without high morale. This good morale and excellent work is due in part, of course. to the increased financial support which the institutions are rec~iving from the State.
One problem that faces education not only in Georgia but throughout the land is the growing shortage of qualified teachers at the college level. The demand is simply greater than the supply, and it is obvious that the condition is growing worse, and will continue to become worse in the future. Certain solutions are obvious: attract more bright young students into the profession, retain persons once ccmmitted who are

14

now out of the profession, encourage universities to produce more

teachers of outstanding ability, and encourage better distribution of

those able teachers who are now available. eyond these, attention must

be turned to new methods of presenting basic knowledge, and thereby

make better use of the present potential of college faculties.

The several new presidents who have come into the System during

the year have already been cited. Mention should also be made of some

of the newly-appointed deans, who have added strength to the units of

the System:

At the University of Georgia the significant changes or additions in-

clude the following: Dr. George S. Parthemos, formerly Head of the

Department of Political Science, was named Vice President of the Uni-

versity; Dean Charles A. Stewart was appointed to head the new School

of Social Work at the University; Dr. Martin Lindsey Cowan became the

new Dean of the Law School, succeeding Dean J. Alton Hosch, retired;

and Dean Fred C. Davidson succeeded Dr. Thomas J. Jones in the School

of Veterinary Medicine.

Dr. John H. Gleason became the new Dean at Augusta College.

At Brunswick College, Dr. Pope A. Duncan was appointed Dean, be-

fore assuming the duties as President of South Georgia College.

Dr. Robert D. Reid became Dean of the Faculty at the Savannah

State College.

* * <.'

During the 1963-64 academic year 1,826 faculty members of all

ranks were employed in the nineteen units of the System (exclusive of

the Medical College of Georgia). This figure does not reflect the number

of employees in certain divisions of organized research and extension.

even though some of these people may have held academic rank.

The table which appears next shows the number of faculty persons in

each rank in all of the nineteen institutions, and it also gives the average

salaries paid to faculty members in each of the four ranks. These salaries

are for a nine months' period; those who taught during the summer

quarter received additional compensation.

The average salaries of all teaching personnel in the University System

during 1963-64 was $7,589.00 as compared to $7,372.00 during the

preceding year. The percentage increase from 1962-63 to 1963-64

was 2.9o/r.

The figures set forth in Table I indicate the salaries that were paid from State allocations and internal institutional income. Several of the institutions, including the University of Georgia, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Georgia State College receive income from alumni, foundations. agencies of the federal government, business and industrial establishments for the supplementation of salaries paid to outstanding faculty people. Although these supplements are sometimes relatively small, they have, however, enabled institutions to retain the services of faculty members who might have been enticed away by other educational institutions or by industry. These supplements have also made it possible for institutions to bring to their campuses new personnel of great ability.
* * *
Table 2 which follows gives some idea as to the number of faculty personnel who taught in the various institutions of the University System of Georgia during the academic year 1963-64. These figures reflect the number of persons who were paid from State funds. Time devoted by faculty members to non-teaching duties has been excluded.

16

These institutions which are listed in the table had 91.5 more faculty members in 1963-64 than they had in 1962-63. This increase is fully justified by the enrollment of 2,572 more full-time equivalent students in 1963-64 than in 1962-63. The increase in full-time equivalent students was 8.4% and the increase in the number of faculty was 5.30c.
Attention is also called to the following significant facts:

A few years ago the turnover in faculty in the University System was greater than it is today. Certainly improved salary conditions have played a large part in keeping some of our better faculty members in the University System. Table 3 gives the number of faculty members during the 1962-63 academic year, and then shows the number that did not continue as faculty members for various reasons during 1963-64. It also gives the number of replacements and new appointments that were made for 1963-64. It will be of interest to note that there were
17

203 resignations or terminations, 3 deceased, 12 retirements, 30 leaves of absence, and 24 transfers to non-teaching positions during the year. Replacements and new positions numbered 333; 10 came back from leaves of absence, and 8 transfer-red from n~n-teaching positions.

Extension Divisions
The Center for Continuing Education at the University of Georgia and the Extension Division of the Georgia Institute of Technology offer a number of courses that carry academic credit. The University's extension program includes work conducted in the off-campus centers and work offered in extension classes and by correspondence. Extension courses carrying academic credit are offered by Georgia Tech in the Evening School.
The Albany State College conducts an off-campus center in Columbus for Negro students and the Savannah State College offers a program of correspondence courses for Negroes.
The figures in the next table show the cumulative enrollments in extension programs during the four quarters of the 1963-64 academic year, the average number of students per quarter, and the number of full-time equivalent students who took extension work during the year.
The extension enrollment of the University of Georgia during 1963-64 was about 21 o/r higher than it was during the preceding year. There was a small decrease in the extension enrollment at Georgia Tech.

The extension enrollment figures for 1963-64 are set forth m the following table:

The Extension Divisions of the University of Georgia and the Georgia Institute of Technology conduct many courses, institutes, and conferences that carry no credit toward a degree. A discussion of work of this type appears in the section of this report that deals with Public Services.
The work formerly reported separately as "Saturday Classes and Workshops" has been included in the tables for the Academic Year and for the Summer Quarter.

Testing and Guidance
During the course of the year the Regents' Office of Testing and Guidance produced and distributed a series of research bulletins firmly establishing the soundness of making admissions decisions on the basis of
24

predictions of college grades. New procedures for using predictions in

counseling were developed, and the Director developed an extensive

documentation of the "shock" which accompanies transfer from one

college to another.

.

-

Many long-term studies for individual colleges were completed. Es-

sentially the foundation for sound practice of selective admission in the

University System is near completion. Now the problems of developing

a System-wide philosophy and policy of selectivity must be faced.

The planning for a major guidance activity was conducted during

the year. This activity is the revision of the Counselor's Guide to Georgia

Colleges, published first by the Regents in 1959. Target date for a

revised, improved, and expanded edition is Fall 1965.

In the individual colleges some progress in guidance was made in

terms of the granting of leaves of absence for further study for people

who work with student affairs. However, few new counseling positions

were created. and the need for improvement is great.

Financial Aid
The University System institutions assist students in obtaining a college education through programs of financial aid. At each institution a Director of Student Aid works with students and prospective students arranging means for obtaining needed funds for entering and continuing in college. Many students receive combinations of loans, scholarships. and part-time jobs. If the best interests of the State will be promoted by having larger numbers of well-educated young people, then some public effort is essential 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 renewed the appropriation of $100,000.00 for the 1962-63 year and again for 1963-64. At its regular session in 1964, the General Assembly increased the appropriation for scholarship
25

purposes to $200,000.00. This increased appropriation becomes available to students during the 1964-65 academic year and will enable many additional students to attend college J.Yho, without such scholarship aid, would not be able to do so.
In order to become eligible for a scholarship under this program, a student must be in the top quarter of his class academically and must be in need of financial assistance in order to attend college. During the 1963-64 academic year, 2!.)7 students enrolled in the nineteen University System of Georgia institutions received scholarships through this program.
In addition to the scholarships available through State funds, scholarships available through gifts, grants, and endowment income amounted to almost $716,000.00 during the I%3-64 academic year.
Another important source of financial aiel for students is the National Defense Student Loan Program that 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 permits any one institution to receive as much as $250,000.00 of federal funds during a fiscal year and requires 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, I%3, 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.
The sixteen University System institutions that participated in the National Defense Student Loan Program during the 1963-64 academic year received $744,255.00 in federal funds and raised $82,!.) I0.00 in local funds to match these federal funds. Three institutions, Valdosta State College, Augusta College, and Armstrong College, did not participate in this program.
The National Defense Student Loan Program has become the primary source of loans for students at most institutions. It is becoming increasingly ditllcult for institutions to raise the funds needed to match these federal grants. Many students may be deprived of the opportunity to borrow money to attend college unless some way can be found for the legal use of State funds for matching the grants available under the National Defense Student Loan Program.
26

The State Medical Education Board continues to provide scholarships for students in medical colleges in Georgia and other states. During 1963-64, 132 students received these scholarships. One hundred and seven of these 132 scholarship recipients were enrolled in the Medical College of Georgia. The total awards for the year amounted to $164.828.00. Most scholarships arc in the amount of $1 ,250.00 per year and are renewable for a total period of four years.
The State Department of Education grants scholarships to students preparing to become teachers. During 1963-64, 560 students received a total of $450,000.00 through this program. Three hundred and thirty-two of these students attended institutions of the University System.
Through the Scholarship Aid Program, Negro students continued to receive financial assistance during 1963-64 to attend institutions outside the University System for courses of study in graduate and professional fields. The Board of Regents assists Negro students to secure instruction in fields of study not offered in the institutions predominantly for Negro students.
In 1963-64, grants were given to I 121 individuals who studied in 61 major fields at 87 institutions. The largest enrollment was in the field of Education, with 739 students enrolled in 21 concentrations in this field.
The number of students receiving aid under this program continued to decline in 1963-64, but the decline was not as great as for 1962-63. There were 1233 recipients in 1962-63, 1121 in 1963-64, a total decline of 112. The cost of the program also declined from $207,525.87 in 1962-63 to $204,524.21, the very slight difference of $3,00 1.66.
The applications of I 16 students were denied. Most of these students applied for aid for graduate study in the fields of elementary education and guidance and counseling. The Fort Valley State College now offers full graduate programs in these two fields.

Southern Regional Education Board

The Board of Regents continued its contractual arrangement with

the Southern Regional Education Board. In 1963-64 the Board paid

to the Regional Board a total of $64,250.00 for the following purposes:

For operation of the Regional Board.

$23,000.00

For 14 students at Meharry Medical College

33,750.00

For 5 students in veterinary medicine

at Tuskegee Institute

7,500.00

Under another contract with the Regional Education Board, students

from the States of South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, and Mary-

27

land attend the University of Georgia School of Veterinary Medicine. In 1963-64 the University of Georgia received a total of $216.000.00 under this contract for 146 stud~nts from t,!:le four states mentioned who studied veterinary medicine at the University.

Number of Graduates During 1963-64
During 1963-64 the senior and professional institutions of the University System granted 6,029 degrees. The comparable figure for 1962-63 was 5,573.
The figures set forth below indicate the number and types of degrees conferred and the number of certificates and diplomas granted by the various institutions of the University System during the 1963-64 academic year. The figures include degrees and diplomas awarded in the Summer of I<)63 and in June 1964.

Instruction
Curricula

The curricula of all of the institutions in the University System are constantly being studied, revised, or changed to keep pace with the expanding fields of knowledge. Each institution has the power to add, discontinue, or revise courses of study within the framework of the curricula which have been approved by the Board of Regents. Each year some courses are dropped, and some are added to strengthen the various degree programs.
When an institution wishes to establish a new degree program, approval must be secured from the Board of Regents. During the past year a number of new degree programs were added, and it is interesting to notice the curricula trends taking place at some of the institutions. For instance, at the University of Georgia and Georgia Institute of Technology, a great deal of emphasis is being placed on the development of Ph.D. programs. Georgia Southern College is rounding out its arts and sciences programs with several new majors in the B.S. and A.B. degrees. The same is true of West Georgia College. Georgia State College is building on the master's level, and is also strengthening its undergraduate programs in certain areas. Armstrong College of Savannah, Georgia Southwestern at Americus, and Augusta College are building programs leading to the A.B. and B.S. degrees. Several of the junior colleges are also strengthening their two-year programs with terminal programs which are needed in the communities in which the junior colleges serve.
The following new degrees and programs were approved by the Board of Regents:
University of Georgia Ph.D. with a major in Botany Ph.D. with a major in Romance Languages Ph.D. with a major in Pharmacy Ph.D. with a major in Political Science A single-purpose Department of Library Science was established in the College of Education for the purpose of preparing public school librarians.

During the year, the Board of Regents approved the establishment of a Graduate School of Business Administration within the College of Business Administration at the University of Georgia. This new unit will administer advanced professional training for business, with programs leading to the Master of Business Administration and Master of Accounting degrees. The College of Business Administration will continue to offer the doctoral and master's programs under the jurisdiction of the Graduate School of the University.
In January it was announced that the School of Nursing of the Medical College of Georgia was granted initial accreditation for its baccalaureate program during the year. This initial accreditation was given by the Collegiate Board of Review of the National League for Nursing at its meeting on December 17, 1963.
Libraries
The library is the very heart of any educational institution and improved library facilities and holdings mean expanded opportunities for the students. It is gratifying to note that the libraries in the U nivcrsity System arc being used to greater advantage by the students and faculties than ever before. Circulation of books in most of the libraries has increased considerably during the past year. For example, President Noah Langdale's report from Georgia State College shows the
34

student circulation in 1963-M to be 90,387 as compared to 76,373 for the preceding year. At Albany State, President William H. Dennis, Jr. reports the student circulation this past year to be 35,470 as compared to 30,780 for the year before. President Harry B. O'Rear of the Medical College stated that circulation of books at his institution was up 4000 over last year.
Physical facilities of the libraries at several of the institutions arc being improved. New library buildings are being finished at South Georgia College and Middle Georgia College, and additions to the libraries at Valdosta State and Georgia Southern are almost completed at this writing. Also during the year ground was broken for new and greatly needed library buildings at Georgia State College, Armstrong College, and at the new Brunswick College.
During the 1963-64 academic year the institutions in the System had total expenditures for the libraries amounting to $2,242,638.58 as compared to $1,985,371.85 for the previous year. This figure docs not include library expenditures at the Agricultural Experiment Stations at Griffin and Tifton amounting to $33,727.82.
The number of volumes added during 1963-64 to the libraries in the System. as shown in the table below, is 122,920. The total volumes now held by all units of the System, exclusive of the Experiment Stations, numbers I ,624,438.
With better facilities and larger collections within these facilities. the libraries in the University System will continue to play a larger and larger role in the total educational process taking place in our State.
It should be pointed out that the collections of some of the libraries should be enlarged immediately, especially those units in the System which arc being converted to four year colleges, namely, Armstrong College of Savannah, Augusta College, and Georgia Southwestern at Americus. For example, Armstrong College now has a collection numbering 17,099 volumes. President Ashmore says, '"For four year status, the library should be increased from the present number of volumes to a minimum of 50,000 by the time the first class graduates [in 1968]." Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College meets the Standards of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in the number of library volumes. claims Acting President Tom Cordell, but it docs not meet the National Junior College Library Standards as drawn up by the American Library Association. Additional money must be allocated for library usc.
The following table gives interesting statistics relating to the libraries during 1963-64.

Development of Junior Colleges
During the 1963-64 fiscal year, seven junior colleges were in operation in the University System and a new junior college approved by the Board of Regents in June of 1961 was under construction in Brunswick, with plans to begin operation in September, 1964. Plans were under way for the development of an additional junior college in the AlbanyDougherty County area for which approval had been granted by the Board of Regents in April of 1963. Two of the seven operating junior colleges. Armstrong College in Savannah and Augusta College, were planning for conversions to four-year status as authorized by the Board of R.:ogents in May of 1963. In March, 1964, the Board of Regents authorized the Georgia Southwest:rn College in Americus to become a four-year institution.
Dormitory for Women, Savannah State College ...,...

36

The establishment of three additional junior colleges was approved by the Board of Regents during the year. In July, 1963, the Board authorized the setting up of a junior college in the Dalton-Whitfield County area. At its meeting heid on Octo'ber 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 will begin sometime within the near future.
In March of 1964, the Board of Regents directed that a comprehensive study be made of the State to determine the need for additional junior colleges. The study was initiated in May of 1964 and plans were made for the completion of the study by the end of the year.
The junior colleges being planned and constructed are to be located in well populated communities. Programs offered by these new community junior colleges will include regular college courses at the freshman and sophomore level, terminal programs in general education and in specific areas, and special courses and programs designed to meet the educational needs of the adult community. These community junior colleges arc intended to serve persons within commuting distance and will have no dormitories or other housing for students. Persons attending these institutions will be spared the expense and inconvenience of traveling and living away from home to attend college, and the State is spared the expense of providing housing for students. These community junior colleges arc not intended to become four-year colleges but will serve as junior colleges sensitive to the educational needs of the community in which they arc located.
Enrollments in the seven operating junior colleges and the number of faculty members increased significantly over the previous year. The equivalent full-time enrollment for the regular session 1963-64 was 45 86, an increase of 5.4'r over 1962-63. Students enrolled in junior colleges comprised 13.8~i of the total University System enrollment. The equivalent full-time teachers for the year numbered 223, an increase of 5.5 S'r over the previous year.

Research and .Publications

Genera I Statement
Several notable forward steps in research were taken by institutions of the University System during 1963-64.
State funds allocated by the Board of Regents increased for research operations. and contracts were awarded and plans initiated for several millions of dollars worth of new research facilities.
Research contracts and grants of the major research-oriented institutions of the System also showed a substantial increase. with a large share of the total amounts continuing to come from the federal government. However. the amounts of federal research money going to Georgia institutions and other research-oriented institutions in the South were relatively small compared with the amounts being received by universities in some other parts of the country.
Reports made it evident that institutions in the University System of Georgia substantially increased their research capabilities during the year and are now in better position than ever before to compete for an increasing share of the grants and contracts. Better faculties. more able research people. and the new facilities constructed or in mature planning stages were listed by institutions as principal reasons for an improved outlook for competition.
Most of the organized research was done at the universities of the University System because of the large outlay required for buildings and the necessity for large research staffs. libraries. and extensive graduatelevel curricula. However. some of the other institutions reported commendable advances in organized and personal research activities.
The quality and scope of research at the University of Georgia. the Georgia Institute of Technology. the Medical College of Georgia. Georgia State College and other institutions in the System were reflected in the hundreds of publications and presentations reported for the year. These included several books. a large number of research papers published in leading professional journals. and other reports dealing with the multitude of fields of endeavor affecting the lives of all Georgians.
State appropriations for research to the University of Georgia. the Georgia Institute of Technology. and the Medical College of Georgia totaled $5.066.749.00. This was an increase of $638,667.00. or ap-
proximately 14 1>r. from the $4.428.082.00 for 1962-63.
39

Grants and contracts to the institutions, including those from the

federal government, private business, foundations, and other sources,

UN IVERSITY O F G EORGI A

AG RI CULTU RA L R ESEA RCH

Agricultural resea rch is conducted at three princi pal Ex periment Sta-

tions and at a number of branch stati ons located in different sections of

the State. The main fac il ities are the Georgia Ex perim ent Station at

Ex perim ent (Gri ffi n ), the College Ex periment Station in Athens, and

the Coastal Pl ain Ex periment Station at Tifton.

A large share of the agricultural projects fa ll into the a ppli ed resea rch

category, dealing with production, util ization, and marketing of products.

Through these research projects, the Stations seek to enable G eorgia

farm ers to establish better economic bases and , in general, to develo p a

better stand ard of life.

R es ults of agricultural resea rch reach far outside the business of

1

fa rm ing, however, and signifi cantl y in fl uence a vast number of no n-farm

econom ic and social developments. Industry is one of the principa l

beneficiaries of improved agriculture.

M o re th an 500 different resea rch projects were conducted by the

members of the staffs of the Agricultural Ex periment Stations during

1963-64. Professional staff members numbered approxim ately 300, of

which abo ut one-third were U . S. D . A . workers in Station buildings or

in federal laborato ries on or adj acent to Station pro perties .

Published during the yea r were 25 bulletins, fo ur circul ars, fo ur leafl ets,

42

and 33 mimeographed reports. Also published in journals and in other publications were 343 articles. The Experiment Stations publish an annual report and the Georgia /'jgricultural Research Quarterly.
In addition to the research administered by the Stations, there was a large volume of research money spent in cooperation with the Stations by various agencies of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The amount of federal funds spent by those agencies was estimated at $2,225.000.00 for the year.
Programs of research in the Agricultural Experiment Stations arc coordinated by the Director of Agricultural Research of the University of Georgia's College of Agriculture. A more detailed report on research activities of the Stations may be obtained from the annual report of the Experiment Stations.
GENERAL RESEARCH
The productivity in general research for the year is indicated in part by the large increase in research publications and presentations by the faculty. The number of research papers published during the year was 361 as compared to 170 for the previous year. In addition, 257 papers were presented and 176 were in press-a total of 794 for the year. For the previous year, the total in all categories was 634.
As would be expected. departments with active doctoral programs made the best showings in research productivity.
During 1963-64 faculty members engaged in general research numbered 181, an increase from 159 the previous year. This paralleled increases in the number of predoctoral and doctoral research positions.
Only a few of the major advances in research can be mentioned in this limited space. One of these was the progress made in the continued development of the University Research Park, which will serve general and agricultural research. A highlight of that development was the announcement of a $9.5 million regional utilization laboratory to be administered by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. It is expected to employ approximately 400 scientists, increasing by about $5 million the annual operating expenses supplied by federal agencies. A $2 million water research laboratory, a federal government project to be located in the Park, reached the drawing-board stage during the year.
Five scientists from the University were invited to attend four international meetings, and faculty members in the humanities also were engaged in research abroad.
Among the major advances in research equipment during the year was the installation of a modern Computer Center for the University.
Many research projects were stimulated by activities of the University's Bureau of Educational Studies and Field Services, the Institute of
43

Law and Government, the Institute of Community and Area Development, and the Bureau of Business Research.
Among the research developments initiated during the year, to be fulfilled as soon as plans can be drawn and implemented, was a multimillion-dollar Graduate Studies Research Center. It will contain a library. computer, and facilities for bio-chemistry and mathematics.
GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
Research at the Georgia Institute of Technology is administered by the academic schools and by the Engineering Experiment Station.
Those projects which, in general, support theses for advanced degrees are under the jurisdiction of the School in which the work is concentrated. Projects of the Engineering Experiment Station are more clientoriented, including the research activities which do not give primary support to theses, but which are considered of equal importance to Techs responsibilities.
During the year 573 projects were underway at the institution. Of the total, 362 were in the Engineering Experiment Station and 211 wer~ in the Schools.
Faculty and staff members in a twelve-month period ending on March 14, 1964, published 127 research papers in recognized journals. In addition, 45 major research reports were prepared for sponsors.
Research administered through the Engineering Experiment Station. but conducted by academic faculty members as well as by the Station staff. produced a total of 552 reports to sponsors. Of that number, 242 were major technical reports, distributed in numbers ranging from five to 500 copies.
Several major developments in Georgia Tech's research during the year must be mentioned. The Water Resources Center was approved by the Board of Regents, and will provide interdisciplinary water resources education and research. A primary objective will be to obtain research grants in this field. The research facility is already attracting substantial support. During the year, it received a one-year grant of $28,959.00 from the U. S. Public Health Service's Division of Water Supply and Pollution Control. The Public Health Service tentatively approved a five-year program which will total an estimated $202,000.00. A Joint Committee on Water Resources Research representing both Georgia Tech and the University of Georgia was set up to coordinate research in this area on the two campuses.
The Frank H. 'Neely Nuclear Research Center was completed, and acceptance proceedings were begun, with the expectation that the reactor would be "critical" before the beginning of 1965. It will open an entirely
44

new field of research and will be available for assistance to researchers at other institutions.
A NASA grant of $600,000.00, to be u.sed over a period of three years, was received during the year, to go into effect in 1964-65. It will support expansion of multidisciplinary research programs in fields of interest to the national space program.
Another NASA grant of $1 million was received to be used toward the construction of the first unit of a three-million-dollar Space Sciences and Technology Center. The Board of Regents will provide all or a major portion of the remainder of the amount required for the total of three buildings for graduate and research programs.
A Chemical Engineering-Ceramic Engineering Building was almost completed during the year, and will enable much new research in those two Schools.
Construction of a multi-million-dollar Physics Building was authorized by the Board of Regents during the year which will also extend research capabilities. The majority of the money will be provided by Authority funds and the remainder is being requested from the National Science Foundation.
Plans and specifications were completed during the year for an Electronics Building, estimated to cost more than $1 million. which will provide 50,000 square feet of additional space for electronics research activities of the Engineering Experiment Station.
Among other facilities planned or underway in 1963-64 were an addition to the radioisotopes and bio-engineering building, a new chemistry building, and a I00,000-square-foot research facility for the Engineering Experiment Station.
MEDICAL COLLEGE OF GEORGIA
Eighty-eight faculty members of the Medical College were named as principal investigators of one or more of the 157 grants received. Principal grantors were the National Institute of Health and the U. S. Public Health Service.
During the year I 18 medical students were engaged in research projects, and 54 written research projects were submitted. Student research provides educational experience in depth. and helps to defray some expenses.
Through the State Health Department a new type of grant was received-a $262,817.00 project, "A Program of Intensive Ante-natal, Natal, and Post-natal Care". It was the first award of its kind in the United States, the Medical College reported, and will support for a
45

period of five years research and teaching in the best methods in medical care in obstetrics.
Publications authored or co-al!thored by .faculty members during the year numbered 184. Books and contributions to books totaled 18, and there were three scientific exhibits.
OTHER UNITS
A considerable amount of research is being done at Georgia State College, this work being refl::cted in part in the publication of five books during the year. In addition, the following works were completed: books revised, 2; books accepted for publication, or being prepared, 25; abstracts, 40; articles published, 66; pamphlets and monographs, 5; articles accepted for publication, 4; special research reports in progress. 6; chapter articles, cases, critiques, and supplements, 7.
The Atlanta Economic Review, published by the Bureau of Business and Economic Research, continued to give faculty members in the School of Business Administration some of their best publication opportunities. A series of monographs entitled Research Papers is in process of being published by the School of Arts and Sciences. Research at the College, for the most part, has been conducted by faculty members whose entire salaries were paid from instructional budgets.
During the 1963-64 academic year Dr. Charles H. Wharton of the Department of Biology was granted a leave of absence to accept a grant from the National Academy of Science to head an expedition to Cambodia to study and to capture specimens of wild Kouprey cattle, which it is thought could benefit the production of beef cattle in the United States.
Georgia Southern College had 21 faculty members with publications during the year. Five faculty members presented papers before professional groups, and one professor had paintings and prints on exhibition on four occasions.
The Woman's College of Georgia had four faculty members to publish or present one research or creative work each during the year. and several other major projects were underway. Fort Valley State College reported eleven faculty publications. North Georgia College reported four research projects. Several faculty members at th~ West Georgia College were engaged in research or creative work leading to publication or presentation of papers. This was also the case at Valdosta State College, Georgia Southwestern College, Columbus College, Augusta College, Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, Albany State College, and Savannah State College.

Public Services

Institutions of the University System were active in many fields of public service during the year. These services were performed in many areas of interest, including business, industry, agriculture, education. medicine. and other professions.
One or more of the System's institutions offered services in most every field of concern to the citizens of Georgia; and, collectively, the institutions were training many thousands of students to serve the people of Georgia and the nation in the future.
University of Georgia
Many faculty members of the University gave public lectures, rendered consultative services, served on committees and boards, and performed numerous other functions and duties in addition to their teaching and research activities.
The Agricultural Extension Service reached millions of Georgians through programs in agriculture, home economics, and youth development. County agents and home demonstration agents made more than 200,000 farm, home, and other visits. They conducted approximately 8.400 training meetings for more than 142,000 local leaders who assist with Extension Service programs in their counties.
In addition, the county agents conducted 60,400 other meetings for adults and young people, presenting information to 2,228,000 persons.
Almost 31 ,000 adult homemakers were enrolled in the Home Demonstation Club program. During the year, the Extension Service printed 928,000 copies of 94 different bulletins, circulars, and periodicals. Hundreds of short courses were held in a number of fields.
During the year, 55,514 persons sought to continue their education through the Center for Continuing Education, an increase of 16.9 per cent over the previous year. Of the people served, 18,123 were enrolled in planned and extended conferences.
Of the total of 215 conferences held at the Continuing Education Center. 76 were held for the first time and 139 were continuations of conferences held in former years. The conferences required the services of 188 faculty members for I,582 contact hours of formal instruction and 689 varied presentations and services.
48

The Center's television station, WGTV, continued its distinguished services to the State through its excellent programming. Evening programs for the State Department_ of Education's stations, WXGA-TV at Waycross and WVAN-TV at Pembroke, were provided by the Center.
The Film Division of the Center produced 13 half-hour programs, 'The Changing Community," in a joint project with the Institute of Community and Area Development. The project was underwritten by a business firm.
Georgia Institute of Technology
The faculty of the Georgia Institute of Technology was active throughout the year in speech making and public contacts of all kinds. The evening program of the Georgia Institute of Technology, for people who cannot attend college as full time students, was put on a new administrative basis in June 1964. The 56-year-old Engineering Evening School was terminated, but the educational services of this division of Georgia Tech will continue to be offered by other departments. Although classes will continue at night, they will be on the same basis as day school programs. The new arrangement will allow Georgia Tech to upgrade the programs and give them better support to serve the increasing needs of the community. Credit courses have been transferred to the jurisdiction of the respective day school programs.
This institution's Department of Continuing Education is growing and developing rapidly and gives promise of performing more public services for the entire area in the future. Non-credit courses are being given by the special programs unit of this department. During 1963-64. the Department offered 61 short courses and 12 conferences, as compared with 41) short courses and I) conferences during the previous year.
An Executive Program in Engineering Management, co-sponsored by the Georgia Tech Alumni Association, was begun during the year.
Enrollment in the Fire Institute Program totaled 3,004 in II 0 classes during 1%3-64, compared with 3,147 in I 15 classes for the previous year. The basic fire fighter course was offered in 21 communities, and 254 certificates for successful completion of the program were granted.
In the In-Plant Training Program, 208 classes were held in industrial establishments and in the granite industry. Enrollment totaled 2,763 employees and 1.239 certificates were issued for I ,703 unit courses completed. Thirty-nine diplomas were awarded to men who were trained as In-Plant Instructors. During the previous year 217 classes were held with enrollment totaling 2,732.
49

Georgia State College
The Georgia Executive Management Seminar, initiated by Georgia State in 1958, was held at Callaway Gardens from May 31 to June 6, 1964, with 24 enrollees including higher management personnel from all sections of the South. Eleven administrators and faculty members from Georgia State staffed the program.
Other seminars during the year included the Life Insurers Conference, Actuarial Science, Advance Agency Management, and Capitalism.
Eight series of short courses were held on several subjects. The faculty has been most active in working with the public. Many speeches were made by the faculty and administration.
Medical College of Georgia
The Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital, the teaching hospital of the Medical College, continues to render medical services to the people of Georgia. During the year 9919 inpatients were admitted, an increase of approximately 500; and there were 38,304 visits to the outpatient clinics. The average daily census of patients was almost 400, and the average number of days spent in the hospital was 15.
The Department of Continuing Education reported six short courses were held with a total attendance of 231. The courses ranged from three days to weekly sessions for 12 weeks. Two medical society programs were held, with four faculty members participating in each.
A clinical traineeship program was initiated, to provide intensive postgraduate training for physicians. The program is specifically designed to fill the particular need of the physician.
Other Institutions
Thirty-one faculty members of the West Georgia College tilled 92 speaking engagements during the year, and 14 faculty members held positions of leadership in nonprofessional organizations. Thirty-one were engaged in special projects such as PTA workshops and other services for schools, civic clubs, and other community organizations.
Various faculty members of the North Georgia College made speeches to groups in several places throughout the area, and other faculty members were involved in community activities.
Members of the faculty of The Woman's College of Georgia made 593 speeches, accepted Ill committee appointments, held 59 community, State, or professional offices, and served in various other princi-

Physical Plants

New Construction
During the 1963-64 fiscal year, as a result of unprecedented support of Governor Carl E. Sanders and the General Assembly, the Board of Regents authorized and implemented the largest construction program for higher education in the history of the State. In planning this program, emphasis was concentrated on partially satisfying the current demands created by the exceptionally rapid increase in student enrollments, the evident growing emphasis in the areas of research and development, and the increasing demands for public services to the citizenry of the State.
Facilities presently planned, under construction, or recently completed are designed to relieve partially the growing requirements for libraries. general and specialized classrooms, instructional and research laboratories, adult education programs, student housing, and other required student services.
The current program partially fulfills present requirements; however, it is imperative that steps should be taken without delay to provide for additional facilities to meet the constantly expanding requirements of the next three to five years.
During this year, eighteen new facilities or expansion of existing facilities were completed, as shown in the following list, in twelve of the nineteen units of the System at a cost of $19,0 I I,836.00. The greater portion of these facilities were constructed through the University System Building Authority with the remaining ones being financed by direct appropriations and grants.

During the years 1963 and 1964, the Regents authorized the following twenty-five building projects in fifteen units of the University System. All of these facilities will be under construction during the early part of the 1964-65 fiscal year. Funds for these projects were made available through the University System Building Authority, State appropriations, special grants from outside sources, or from funds held in the institutions. A special appropriation was made by Governor Carl E. Sanders in J unc of 1963 for the construction of facilities that will enable the Augusta College to expand its program to that of a four-year institution.
Special recognition should be given to the grant in the amount of $1 ,000,000.00 which was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for use in constructing a portion of the Space Sci~nces Center at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Development of Present Facilities
All of the institutions in the University System arc active in planning and effecting such changes as funds will allow in modernizing and adapting existing spaces. Emphasis is given to the constant changing needs which follow new construction and to protecting the public investment

58

in the older buildings, many of which have been in use for more than fifty years.
During the 1963-64 year, the Regen.t.s allocated approximately $500,000.00 for continuance of this work. In addition, approval was given for the use of more than $1 ,000,000.00 in funds held by the institutions to enhance this program.
Although more than $10,000,000.00 has been expended during the past thirteen years, the needs are as great or even greater for continuing this program. If maximum utilization is to be achieved, many existing facilities must be converted to new and expanding requirements.
In addition, attention has been given to campus planning and development. Among the items included are utilities (electrical distribution, campus lighting, and heating systems), traffic requirements (road systems, walks, drives, and parking areas), and landscaping. During the year, more than $500,000.00 was expended to provide for a portion of the new demands in this area.
Another step in the direction of efficiency and adequacy in the physical plants has been the addition of permanent operating, instructional, and research equipment at a cost of more than $2,000,000.00.
The physical condition of the several campuses is now in a better state than at any time in the past. It must be emphasized that a greater need exists now than ever before for funds to expand the campuses to accommodate new buildings, extend and develop utility systems, roads, walks, drives, outdoor fields, parking areas, and to concentrate on a landscaping program along with other developments.
Land Acquisitions
Continuous needs exist for more land for the necessary expansion of many of the institutions in the System. Four of the units are presently engaged in acquiring some land through urban renewal programs. They are the University of Georgia, the Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia State College, and the Medical College of Georgia.
During the year the Woman's College of Georgia purchased a lot adjacent to the campus, North Georgia College acquired an area adjoining the housing section of the College campus, and Georgia State College obtained several small plots of land which provide for a very small part of their rapidly expanding needs. The University of Georgia acquired several small areas adjacent to the University properties and the Georgia Institute of Technology added many small parcels of land located largely within the area of the over-all campus plan.
It should be noted that acquisition, where possible, must continue within the limits of funds available to provide for the present and future growing needs.

SECTION
VIII

Finances

This section of the report presents the essential facts regarding the financial operations of the University System during the 1963-64 fiscal year. A more complete description of the operations will be found in the Annual Financial Report of the University System for the year ended June 30. 1964.
Income of the University System
The General Appropriations Act of 1963 provided funds to the University System in the amount of $40,500.000.00. Included in this amount was a specific appropriation of $3,600,000.00 for the operation of the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital which provides clinical and research facilities for the Medical College of Georgia. The amount received under the General Appropriations Act of 1963 was supplemented by an amount of $1 ,517,000.00 received under the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1964 for the acquisition of land under an Urban Renewal Program at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
The total income received from the State during 1963-64 amounted to $42.017.000.00 and was $3,130,000.00 in excess of the amount received during the previous year.
In addition to the funds received from the State, the University System and its institutions received income from student fees; gifts, grants. and endowment income; governmental sources other State appropriations; sales and services; and other miscellaneous sources. The total internal income from these sources amounted to $47,908,984.50 for the year as compared with $43,613,742.91 received from these sources during 1962-63.
The following statement shows the sources and the amounts of all funds available for operations and other purposes during the 1963-64 fiscal year.

State Allocations Per Student to Institutions
- of the University System
The figures in Table 14 show the State allotment per student that was made to each of the several institutions of the University System for the year ended June 30, 1964.
The first column includes the State allotment to each institution for educational and general purposes during 1963-64. The second column sets forth the total number of equivalent full-time students in each of the institutions. This figure was arrived at by dividing the total number of quarter credit hours taught in each institution during the year by 50. The figure 50 represents the approximate number of quarter hours of credit that a student carrying a full program of study could earn during an academic year of three quarters. It will be noted that the number of equivalent full-time students reported in this table is larger than that reported earlier for the regular session. This is due to the fact that the enrollment in the following table combines the enrollment during the summer quarter and the academic year. The figures in the last column represent the allocations for each equivalent full-time student in the 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 sources of the institution. 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.
The allocation per student of $664.00 for all institutions represents an increase of $23.00 per student over the per-student allocation during 1962-63. In comparing the per-student allocation in each institution with that of the previous year, eleven units had increases, seven had decreases, and two remained the same. It is interesting to note that of the eleven institutions receiving an increase in per-student allocations, seven were among the ten units receiving the lower per student allocations during 1962-63. Of the seven institutions receiving a lower per-student allocation during 1963-64 than for the previous year, six were among the ten units receiving the higher per-student allocation for 1962-63.

Income of the Institutions of the University System
The operating budgets of the institutions are made on the basis of the State allocation and income derived from student fees and other sources. The statement set forth in Table 15 on pages 66 and 67 of this report indicates the sources from which each institution received income for educational and general purposes and the amount derived from each source.

The table set forth above takes into consideration all income received by the institutions for educational and general purposes. Some institutions receive considerable amounts for sponsored programs that could not be considered as general operations. Also some institutions carry on certain service programs that produce income that may be applied toward the cost of such programs.
Table 17 shows the percentage of income received from various sources after deducting income for sponsored activities and income produced from the operation of certain programs. It is believed that this table presents fairly a comparison of the sources of income for the general operation of the various institutions.

A comparison of the percentages set forth in the above table with similar tigures for 1962-63 indicates littl~ change in the percentages of income derived from various sources. The percentage of total income from student fees during 1962-63 was 28.6 as compared with 28. I for 1963-64. The percentages from State allotment and other sources during 1962-63 were 6o.7 and 4.7, respectively.

The figures in Table 19 show the percentage of the total expenditures that was made for each of the various functions of the educational and
general program for 1962-63 and 1963-64. J\ comparison of these per-
centages indicates that expenditures for organized research increased by a greater percentage than the increase in total expenditures. It also indicates that the increase in expenditures for plant operations and agricultural extension was somewhat less percentagewise than the increase in total expenditures. The percentage increases in other functions for 1963-64 were essentially the same as the percentage increase in total expenditures.

Table 20 shows the percentage of each institution's total educational and general expenditures that was used for each of the several functions 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 and levels 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 set forth in Table 21 represent the amount per equivalent full-time student, in terms of dollars, that each institution spent for the functions indicated.
In arriving at these figures, all types of enrollment for resident credit were taken into consideration. The amounts are based on a number of equivalent full-time students that was determined by dividing by 50 the total number of quarter credit hours taught by each institution during 1963-64. The figures in the last column indicate the total cost of providing an equivalent full-time student with instructional and other related services as indicated over a period of three quarters-or one academic year.
In arriving at these figures, expenditures for operating laboratory and practice schools, for providing clinical facilities for medical students, for research-whether sponsored or not, for extension and public services, and other expenditures not common to most institutions have been excluded.

The expenditure of $877.00 per student for all institutions during 1963-64 was $15.00 per student less than the amount expended by all institutions during the previous year. In comparing the total per student expenditures in each institution with the expenditures for the previous year, ten units had increases and ten had decreases. Of the ten institutions spending more per student during 1963-64, eight were among the ten units having the lower per student expenditure during 1962-63. Of the ten units having the higher per student expenditure during 1962-63, only two spent more per student during 1963-64.

State Appropriations for 1964-65
This section of the report is presented 12rimarily to cover the financial operations of the University System for the year ended June 30, 1964. It would appear to be in order, however. to report the action of the Governor and the General Assembly in providing additional support through increased appropriations for the year 1964-65.
The General Appropriations Act of 1963 provided funds to the University System for the 1964-65 fiscal year in the amount of $43,800,000.00. Upon the recommendation of the Governor, the General Assembly at its 1964 regular session adopted a Supplemental Appropriations Act increasing the State appropriation to the University System for 1964-65 to $50,500.000.00. This represents an increase in the appropriation to the Board of Regents of $10,000,000.00 after deducting the nonrecurring appropriation of $1 ,517,000.00 received during 1963-64.
The increased appropriation for 1964-65 provides $200,000.00 for additional support for the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital. It provides for an increase of $100,000.00 in funds available for Regents' Scholarships, making a total of $200,000.00 available for this program during 1964-65. There is also included in the total increase an amount of $300,000.00 for support of a junior college established under the Junior College Act of 1958. An increase of $3,500,000.00 is provided for Authority Lease Rentals which enables the Board of Regents to enter into contracts with the University System Building Authority for new buildings to cost approximately $70,000,000.00. The projects to be constructed under this program are listed elsewhere in this report. The remaining increase of $5,900,000.00 is available for general operations and is being used by the Board of Regents to provide an increase of 12% in the faculty salary level as well as for additional faculty, supporting personnel and operating expenses to provide for an increased number of students, and for the enrichment of existing programs.

SECTION
IX

Needs of the University System

The information set forth earlier in this report as to the increased financial support to the University System indicates that 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. If this concerted effort on the part of Georgians to bring their system of higher education up to date is continued, it will mean that our citizens can look to the future with confidence, knowing that the University System of Georgia will be in a position to provide adequate opportunity in higher education for a growing state when more students of college age desire and must have higher education.
A budget proposal has been prepared that is intended to present the financial needs of the University System and its institutions for the twoyear period beginning July I, 1965. In estimating the needs for a growing and constantly changing system of higher education for such a period of time many assumptions must be made. The end result of estimates based on these assumptions will appear to many to be completely unrealistic in comparison with present-day financial support. However, our experience in compiling such estimates in the past indicates a tendency to underestimate rather than to overestimate the ability of the State to provide financial support.
The budget prepared for 1965-67 provides for an increase in State appropriation for the support of the University System from $50,500,000.00 for 1964-65 to an amount of $69,959,000.00 for 1965-66 and $79,974,000.00 for 1966-67. This is an increase of $19,459,000.00 during the first year of the biennium and a further increase of $10,015,000.00 during the second year.
The increase of $19,459,000.00 for the first year of the biennium would provide an increase in the State appropriation of $12,639,000.00 for operating costs and $6,820,000.00 for capital outlay. The increase in operating funds would provide for an increase in faculty salaries of 10%, the increased number of faculty and other personnel to handle increased enrollments and some funds for the enrichment of present programs. The increase requested for capital outlay would provide Authority lease rentals to finance approximately $25,000,000.00 in new
77

buildings during 1965-66 as well as funds for the renovation of existing buildings and for the acquisition of land at some institutions that do not presently have adequate land for future expansion of their physical plants.
The further increase of $i0,015,000~00 for the second year of the biennium would provide an increase of $9,230,000.00 for operating costs and an additional $785,000.00 for capital outlay. The increase in operating funds would provide for an increase in faculty salaries of 8% which should, for the first time in our history, enable the institutions of the University System to pay faculty salaries slightly above the average of those paid in comparable institutions of the nation. This increase would also provide for the additional faculty members, other personnel, and operating expenses needed for additional students, and the new buildings to be operated. This increase would provide the operating funds that will be needed to open three new junior colleges during 196667. These colleges are to be located at Albany, Gainesville, and Marietta. The net increase in funds for capital outlay would enable the financing of new buildings to cost approximately $22,000,000.00. It would also make possible the continuing of a major renovation program of existing buildings and the purchase of additional land for campus expansion.
The increases in State appropriation requested appear substantialand they are; however, it should be pointed out that these estimates were compiled on the expectation of 46,000 students in the Fall of 1965 and 49,500 in the Fall of 1966. Our enrollment estimate for the Fall of 1964 was 42,500 and this number was exceeded by 3,035 students. On the basis of this enrollment, it now would appear that we may expect as many as 49,000 students in 1965 and 52,500 in the Fall of 1966.
As more and more students enter our colleges and universities, there will continue to be growing demands for money to provide additional plant facilities, for the employment of additional faculty and other personnel, for salary increases if our institutions are to enter the competitive market for teachers of top quality with some expectations of success, and for increased operating expenses. We are confident that the people of Georgia will look to and expect the University System to provide the services needed for the continued economic development of the State through research and programs of continuing education; and that high school graduates in Georgia will look to their own State institutions for the kinds of educational opportunity that today many seek elsewhere. We are also confident that the people of Georgia will be willing to provide for the maintenance of such a program.
