Revision of the General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure (Article IV, Sec. 4(d)-(f), Naming of Buildings, Streets, and Drives)

(10) Article IV, Section 4 of the General Rules prescribes rules for the naming of buildings, streets, and other campus facilities. Such designations are exclusively within the purview of the Board of Trustees. The Rules provide guidance for the recognition of donors of funds for campus facilities, for the naming of residence halls and for naming campus facilities for former members of the faculty and others in the public life of the State or nation. In the latter category, i.e., former members of the faculty and others in public life, such designations are not authorized for living persons, presumably to insure that such proposals are made with adequate historical perspective. The principle remains valid and desirable. However, there have been instances in the history of the University when the contribution of a member of the faculty or staff has been widely acknowledged — and well beyond that person's period of active service. In an attempt to preserve the principle of perspective, yet provide the flexibility to recognize, in unusually meritorious cases, a significant and lasting contribution to the University, I recommend that the following amendments be made to Article IV, Section 4 ( d ) - ( f ) of the General Rules' Should the board approve the amendments, implementing guidelines would be issued. (The guidelines are filed with the secretary of the board for record.) (The recommendation is presented following consultation with the University Senates Conference.) O n m o t i o n of Mrs. Gravenhorst, this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n w a s approved. CONCERNING UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATION AND PROCEDURE ARTICLE IV. UNIVERSITY PROPERTY SEC. 4. NAMING OF BUILDINGS, STREETS, AND DRIVES (a) Buildings given to the University may be named for the donors of funds for the same, or for donors whose individual contributions have been crucial in the financing of such buildings.
