Head, Department of Electrical Engineering, Urbana (4) T h e dean of the College of Engineering at the Urbana campus has recommended to the chancellor the appointment of Dr. George W. Swenson, Jr., presently professor of electrical engineering and research professor of astronomy, as head of the Department of Electrical Engineering, beginning August 21, 1979, on an academic-year service basis. Appropriate salary adjustment will be determined at the time of the preparation of the 1979-80 budget. Professor Swenson will succeed Dr. Edward C. Jordan who is retiring from the University. Dr. Swenson will continue to hold the ranks of professor of electrical engineering and research professor of astronomy on indefinite tenure. 1 Other appointments to the council were recommended to the board in September. Due to a delay in the selection process, this recommendation was omitted. 2 With the concurrence of the executive committee of the Graduate School of Library Science the executive officer's title is changed herewith from a directorship to a deanship. This change is in accordance with Article III, Section 5, of the University Statutes which indicates that the chief executive officer of the school organized as an independent unit may be either a dean or director. The use of the title of dean more accurately reflects the officer's relationship within the organizational structure of the Urbana campus. 3 Ralph T.
