REGENTS MEETING
March
The regular meeting of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia was held on March 12 in the Boards central office in Atlanta
The policy on faculty housing rental rates at institutions of the University System was revised to become effective July 1 The change will eliminate a longstanding requirement that indebtedness on such facilities be fully selfliquidating and will provide priority for occupancy by new faculty members while they seek to obtain other suitable housing
Under the new policy rates will be competitive with the rates charged for privately owned comparable quarters in the immediate area
Faculty housing construction authorized in recent years has been financed with bond funds Previously such facilities were financed with loans made by the Board of Regents from the accumulated building rental fund
Student housing facilities on campuses for many years have been financed with bond funds In the University System student fees pay approximately half of the amount required for amortization of the indebtedness on such housing
The new policy requires each institution with faculty housing to describe the priority by which renters will be selected The priority shall be based on the fact that faculty housing is primarily a tool for recruiting able faculty members the Regents stipulated Under new rental contracts faculty members will not be permitted to continue occupancy in faculty housing indefinitely unless there is no demand for it by new faculty members
There is no requirement for the alteration of existing rental contracts to reflect the change in policy as to length of occupancy
A change in the policy for creating reserves at institutions for outstanding purchase orders was adopted
The new policy to become effective July 1 is in agreement with an accounting system devised by the State Audit Department for all departments of State government It will provide for more realistic reporting of financial condition at June 30 and will effectively reduce the unappropriated surplus at June 30 by appropriating it to cover bona fide commitments of the Board the Regents were told
The new policy has no restriction on the establishment of reserves for outstanding purchase orders Under the former policy adopted by the Board of Regents in July 1946 institutions were prohibited from setting up reserves at June 30 for outstanding purchase orders except to the extent that such purchase orders represented commitments for special capital outlay as approved by the Board
Authorization was given for an agreement between the University of Georgias Institute of Community and Area Development and the Ocean Science Center of the Atlantic Commission
The Institute will develop a comprehensive plan for the accelerated improvement and expansion of marine research and educational programs and facilities in the coastal plains
region of Georgia
A sum not to exceed 30000 will be paid on a reimbursable basis to the University for the sixmonth period ending August 31
Authorization was given for the Regents to convey to the First National Bank of Atlanta approximately 11500 square feet of land immediately south of the new Tech Parkway near the Georgia Tech campus The price will be approximately 3019 per square foot
The transaction will fully implement a plan approved by the Regents in June 1965 to effect an exchange of land between the Regents and the Bank to provide for continued development of the Georgia Tech campus
Approval was given for the purchase from Patricia Lynn Hall of approximately 4725 square feet of land for the Georgia College at Milledgeville A purchase price of 4000 to be paid from funds available at the institution was authorized
The land is located on the south side of East Montgomery Street Milledgeville and will provide additional parking spaces for students
Authorization was given for the conveyance to the Georgia Crop Improvement Association of 1638 acres located between Whitehall Road and the Georgia Railroad at the University of Georgia The Regents February agreement to lease the same land to the Association was rescinded
The property will be conveyed without charge It will be the site of an office building to be erected by the Association which works closely with the Universitys College of Agriculture in the certification and labeling of seeds
Lease agreements with 100 Edgewood Avenue Inc for the use by Georgia State College of office space in the Hartford Building Atlanta were approved The leases provide for 2070 square feet from April 1 to June 30 1969 at a monthly rental of 735 and for 6272 square feet from July 1 1969 to June 30 1970 with an option to renew annually for five years at a monthly rental of 2401
A supplemental agreement provides for the payment of additional funds in the event the lease for 6272 square feet is not renewed at the end of one year or two years and for adjustment of the rental rate based on operating expense change
The sale of approximately 527925 board feet of sawtimber and 724 cords of pulpwood from the University of Georgias Piedmont Field Experiment Station Putnam County was approved as recommended by the Georgia Forestry Commission
Approval was given for leasing 213 acres of land in Union County for use by the Mountain Experiment Station of the University of Georgia The leases are to be with R Neal Collins Grady Hunter and Irene Shuler for one year beginning March 15 at an annual cost of 505 with an option to renew for five consecutive years

The Legislature just adjourned voted an increase of more than 12 million dollars for the University System for the year beginning July 1
While this is substantially less than the request made by the Regents it is important to understand two points in this connection
First the failure to appropriate more funds for the University System did not seem to reflect an intent to discontinue the steady progress in support for the University System that

State Appropriations
Chancellors Statement Continued from Front Cover has prevailed for the past several years
Actually the debate in the Legislature was never primarily concerned with the needs of individual agencies The debate concerned other fundamental issues These issues were not resolved and indeed are still under debate It was the impasse on these issues that produced the impasse on new funds for the various state programs
While it is impossible of course to speak for the Legislature the general impression gained is that on the whole the members of the Legislature believe in the necessity of a growing and improving system of higher education for the young people of Georgia and intend to provide adequate support for such a system in the long run
Second in addition to the more than 12milliondollar increase provided by the Legislature the Board of Regents has voted to raise fees in the University System in an amount that would provide some six million dollars of additional income during the coming year While the Board is always reluctant to raise fees such an increase is justified in terms of the position of the present fee structure of the University System in relation to that of most state institutions in the South Another measure is to examine the proportion of costs in the University System accounted for by student fees as follows
Student Fees as Percent of Total Income
196465285
196566272
196667314
196768251
196869228
196970272 preliminary estimate
As a rule of thumb the Board of Regents wants to
maintain this proportion in the neighborhood of 25 percent
With the addition of the fee increase the increase in funds available to the University System in the coming year will be more than 18 million dollars With this amount the current level of student and faculty ratio can be fully maintained with the growth of some 7000 students merit adjustments in line with those available to other State employees can be provided all developments of recent date in the University System can be continued some additional help can be provided in the area of operating expenses in certain critical areas some modest expansion can be initiated in agricultural research in extension and in the burgeoning field of urban life
The State appropriations include 750000 for rehabilitation an increase from the zero amount provided during the current year
The appropriation bill does not include any funds for new lease rental authority to construct new buildings Again this does not rest on any lack of understanding of the necessity for a continuous building program in the University System during this period of growth There is good reason to think that these funds will be provided at the earliest possible time
Both as citizens and as members of the University System it is worthwhile for all of us to take the long view of our situation We are on an upward trend that will continue through the coming year
The 196970 state appropriations will be allocated to the universities and colleges by the Board of Regents in May Detailed budgets including the state appropriations and anticipated internal income to be derived primarily from student fees will be submitted by the institutions for Board action in June
This classroom building which will be completed at South Georgia College in the fall of 1969 will contain 22611 square
feet The architect is ThomasHuttonJohnson Savannah and the general contractor is Culpepper and Edwards Pelham

REGENTS ACTION CHANGES TENURE POLICY IN SYSTEM
The standard period for professors and associate professors to serve on a probationary basis at institutions of the University System before acquiring permanent tenure status has been changed from two years to three years
Permanent tenure for professors and associate professors after a twoyear probationary period continues to be permissible in cases where presidents exercise their discretion to recommend it
The full text of the Tenure policy of the Board of Regents revised to reflect the change approved by the Board at the July meeting is as follows
A Tenure of professors and associate professors shall be permanent When a faculty members first connection with an institution is in the capacity of a full professor or associate professor he shall serve on a probationary basis for a period of three years except that at his discretion the president may recommend tenure at the end of two years his tenure shall be permanent after that time
B Assistant professors may be appointed on a yeartoyear basis for a period of five years Upon successful completion of five years of service an assistant professor may have permanent tenure upon the written notice by the president and approval by the Chancellor
C Appointments of instructors shall be on a yeartoyear basis and no teacher shah serve with the rank of instructor for a period longer than five years
D The provisions herein set forth shall not be construed to prohibit the promotion of a qualified individual at any time
The July revision affects only section A dealing with the tenure requirements for professors and associate professors Sections B C and D were not changed
Sufficient Time is Objective Of Revised Policy on Tenure
The revision of the Tenure policy of the Board of Regents for professors and associate professors in the University System is intended to provide sufficient time for all concerned before a decision to grant tenure or to reject it is made Chancellor George L Simpson Jr said
Under the revised section of the Tenure policy voted by the Board at the July meeting the standard probationary period for professors and associate professors to serve before the decision on permanent tenure is three years Formerly the standard probationary period for faculty members of these ranks was two years
In a memorandum to presidents Chancellor Simpson said
This change was requested in the Tenure policies of the Board of Regents because in a number of cases the presidents administrative officers and heads of departments on the individual campuses have found that a fair evaluation cannot always be made in the time available to them for observing a new faculty member The decision to give or not to give tenure must be made within about a year and three months after the new faculty person has come to the campus Where any doubts develop or where the issue is not clearcut this is not sufficient time to reach a mature decision and is unfair both to the individual and to the institution
For this reason the period of probation is extended to three years in general but at the discretion of the president the period may be reduced to two years
This is not intended in any way to weaken tenure in the University System but to provide sufficient time for all concerned before a decision to grant tenure or to reject it is made

Chancellor Simpsons statement to the Board of Regents in September was as follows
The growth of Atlanta into a major metropolitan area presents the need for a full scale urban university The growth of Georgia State College to its present size of some 13000 students has served Atlanta well But to match the expanding complexity of the Citys needs a broader base for the institution is required
Specifically the base should be broadened in two primary areas in graduate study and in service programs for the Atlanta metropolitan community The demand for graduate work in the State of Georgia is growing at a rapid rate Since 1960 the graduate enrollment in the University System has increased tenfold The growth of graduate work will continue for some time Just to meet the announced new requirements for graduate training for school teachers during the 1970s will in itself require a vast expansion Georgia State
now gives a PhD degree in economics business administration education history English and psychology The capacity to do graduate work has been demonstrated The establishment of additional graduate work reflects the in place need in Atlanta not a needless duplication of programs
In addition to enlarged graduate work Georgia State must have a broader base from which to supply a radically enlarged community service program to Atlanta Georgia State must continue and expand its historical mission of service to the parttime student to the person whose education has been interrupted and who needs special work in fundamentals to the adult seeking further education Work must be extended into community affairs and problems into training for work in an urban environment
In recent years Georgia State has expanded its work related directly to the community of Atlanta in such areas as the School of General Studies the School of Education the School of Allied Health Sciences again demonstrating the capacity to move forward in these areas
It is intended that the addition of new programs proceed at a sound and deliberate pace The existence of various programs in other institutions of the University System will be taken into account in considering the addition of new programs at Georgia State
In making this recommendation that the name of Georgia State College be changed to Georgia State University it is proper to remark on the splendid work of President Langdale his colleagues and his predecessors in bringing Georgia State to its present position

199 MILLION RESEARCH CONTRACTS GRANTS REPORTED
Extramural contracts and grants totaling 19905994 were received during the 196869 fiscal year for research to be conducted at the Georgia Institute of Technology the Georgia State University the Medical College of Georgia and the University of Georgia according to a staff report to the Board of Regents in September That amount included 727841 for Georgia State for which data on extramural research contracts and grants were not included in consolidated reports prior to 196869
The 19178153 for Georgia Tech the Medical College and the University of Georgia in 196869 compared with 24880626 for these same institutions in 196768 when there was an extraordinarily large grant3719000for a threeyear program in biological sciences
The four institutions for which 196869 data were included perform most of the research done in the University System
Most of the extramural contracts and grants received by the institutions are awarded by agencies of the federal government some of the support however is received from private firms and other sources This support does not include state appropriations allocated for research at the institutions
More and more of our faculty members are engaged in the preparation and submission of proposals seeking extramural support for researchrelated programs for which support money has been and is continuing to be less and less available the staff report indicated The picture is compounded in view of the exploding number of graduate programs requiring support for the research institutions and hence the increasing competition on a national scale for the decreasing number of dollars
The breakdown of the extramural contracts and grants awarded was as follows
Georgia Institute of Technology7247739 in 196869 compared with 8444468 in 196768
Georgia State University 727841 in 196869 the amount for 196768 was not included in the consolidated report for that year
Medical College of Georgia 3280508 in 196869 compared with 2916876 in 196768
University of Georgia8649906 in 196869 compared with the 196768 amount of 13519282 which included a grant of 3719000 from the National Science Foundation for a threeyear program for the development of a Center of Excellence in biological sciences
The extramural contracts and grants represent funds obligated for future research performance
Research Proposals
During the 196869 fiscal year 1333 proposals were submitted for research work amounting to 58481366 to be conducted at the four principal researchperforming institutions of the University System
The institutions the number of proposals and the amounts of research support sought are as follows
Georgia Institute of Technology510 proposals 21855767
Georgia State University 75 proposals 4270495
Medical College of Georgia 284 proposals 10871375
University of Georgia464 proposals 21483729
In recent years in the neighborhood of onethird of the research proposals submitted from the University System institutions have been funded Among the principal factors determining whether a proposal will be funded are the relevancy of the project proposed the degree of the researchers preparedness to do the work and the availability of funds
State Funds for Research 156 Million in 196869
State funds allocated by the Board of Regents for research at the four principal researchperforming institutions totaled 15556671 in 196869 an increase from 13782370 in 196768
The allocations by institutions were as follows
Georgia Institute of Technology4196250 in 196869 compared with 3889191 in 196768
Georgia State University620885 compared with 380007
Medical College of Georgia 463699 compared with 450485
University of Georgia 10275837 compared with 9062687
In 196869 the ratio of extramural contracts and grants to state allocations for research was 128 to 1 In 196768 the ratio was 186 to 1 not including the amount in either category for Georgia State University since the consolidated report on research support did not include extramural contracts and grants awarded to this institution that year
Having an extraordinary influence on the ratio in 196768 was an extramural grant of 3719000 from the National Science Foundation to the University of Georgia That threeyear grant accounted for 15 percent of all extramural contracts and grants reported for the University System in 196768
Regents Say Some Tax Proposals Would Damage Higher Education
Opposition to the passage of the proposed Federal tax reform measure HR 13270 in its present form has been expressed by the Board of Regents
A resolution dealing with the matter was authorized by the Board at the September meeting
The Regents said they felt grave concern that some of the provisions of the reform measure would have an adverse effect on financial affairs of public and private institutions of higher education Among the items cited were proposed new rules governing tax treatment of state and municipal bonds and of the appreciation on gifts to charities
The resolution noted that HR 13270 was pending before a Senate committee

Study of German and Spanish in European universities is expected to continue In the 1969 summer quarter the German program was conducted at the University of Innsbruck Innsbruck Austria and the Spanish program was conducted at the Instituto Cardenal Fopez de Mendoza Burgos Spain There is no firm plan for expanding the German and Spanish programs from summer quarter status
Eleven students from institutions of the University System are enrolled in the SeptemberJune program in French They include one from the Georgia Institute of Technology three from the Georgia State University six from the University of Georgia and one from the Georgia College at Milledgeville
Each student successfully completing the ninemonth program will receive 45 quarter hours of college credit at his home institution Approximately 25 quarter hours of this will be in French language the remainder will be in French literature history and other supporting subjects
The academic year program in French like the summer quarter programs in all three languages in Study Abroad is
open to undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in universities and colleges in the University System and inservice language teachers Enrollees are required to have completed at least four basic courses in the language to be studied or the equivalent and must have an overall academic average of B or better
The cost of the ninemonth program is 1560 which includes round trip air travel between New York City and Dijon registration and tuition lodging meals and expenses of special instruction Excursions will cost an additional amount of approximately 150
Overhead expenses of the Study Abroad Program are paid by the Board of Regents of the University System
In the 1969 summer quarter 99 students from institutions of the University System enrolled in the French German and Spanish programs These included 53 in French 18 in German and 28 in Spanish Each student successfully completing one of these programs received 15 quarter hours of college credit at his home institution
All of the Study Abroad programs according to the official announcement brochure are designed to help the student to achieve fluency and accuracy in the use of his target language and to gain an appreciation of the culture of the people that only personal experience in the country can give
The University System Study Abroad Committee is considering the organization of an art group for study in Rome and of a group in Spanish Education to be made up of inservice and future Spanish teachers for study in Spain for a portion of an academic year

Citizens of Clayton County approved a bond issue of 4900000 to be used for campus site development and for construction of the initial buildings Site development was handled by the Clayton County Board of Education which entered into a contract with the Board of Regents of the University System for the development of the institution Construction of the buildings was handled by the Board of Regents
Patient Service Charges Increased at Teaching Hospital
Authorization for the Medical College of Georgia to increase its charges for inpatient and outpatient services in the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Hospital effective January 1 1970 was voted in December by the Board of Regents
The new daily charges for inpatient services will be as follows selfcare 40 increased from 30 semiprivate 45 increased from 35 private 55 increased from 50 intensive care 105 increased from 100 and nursery 25 increased from 5
The new charges for outpatient services will be as follows emergency 15 increased from 10 initial visit 10 increased from 7 return visit 5 unchanged and nurse check 3 increased from 2
In addition to these charges other charges are made for ancillary services such as laboratory tests Xrays and operating room based on the cost of rendering the specific services provided
A statement accompanying the request for the changes indicated that the increases are needed to maintain a proper
relationship between the cost of services provided and the charges for such services The total charges including the inpatient and outpatient services and ancillary services are approximately 85 percent of costs at present rates and will be approximately 98 percent of costs after the increases become effective
The Talmadge Hospital is the teaching hospital of the Medical College of Georgia The increases will provide a chargecost relationship well in line with other teaching hospitals according to the statement to the Regents
While the present total charges are approximately 85 percent of the costs of services rendered the amount collected is approximately 33 percent of costs The present policy of the Board of Regents provides that patients able to pay in part or in full for the cost of hospital services shall reimburse the Hospital in an amount commensurate with their ability to pay Collections for inpatient and outpatient services range from nothing for the indigent to full payment for those able to make such payment
