MATTERS PRESENTED BY PRESIDENT WILLARD

T h e Board considered the following matters presented by the President of t h e University.

SABBATICAL LEAVES OF ABSENCE DURING 19 4 1 - 1 9 4 2 ( i ) I t is recommended that the following members of the staff be given sabbatical leaves of absence during the academic year 1941-1942 in accordance with the provisions of the University Statutes and on the terms and for the period indicated in each case: I. Leaves of absence for members of the extension staff: Grace B. Armstrong, Assistant Professor, H o m e Economics Extension, August 1, 1041, to February 1, 1942, on full pay. This leave is also subject to the approval of the United States Department of Agriculture. II. Leaves of absence on one-half pay: Dorothy E. Bowen, Assistant Professor of Music, one year from September I, 1941, on one-half pay. A. S. Daniels, Assistant Professor of Physical Education, first semester, 1941-1942, on one-half p a y ; second semester without pay. Professor Daniels' salary is paid jointly by the University and the Athletic Association, and this leave on one-half pay applies only to that portion (one-half) of salary paid by the University. J. L. Doob, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, one year from September 1, 1941, on one-half pay. M. Goldhaber, Assistant Professor of Physics, first semester, 1941-1942, on one-half pay; second semester without pay. This leave is recommended subject to cancellation by the President of t h e University on recommendation of the H e a d of the Department of Physics if conditions in that department (i.e., shortage of personnel and inability to find a satisfactory substitute) make it inadvisable for Professor Goldhaber to be away. T h e leave without pay for the second semester is requested, and is so recommended, conditional on the candidate's receiving a Guggenheim fellowship for which he has applied. H . N. Hillebrand, Professor of English and H e a d of the Department, first semester, 1941-1942, on one-half pay. J. G. Randall, Professor of History, second semester, 1941-1942, on o n e half pay.
