Two new offices are proposed: an Office of Publications and an Office of Agricultural Communications. The new organizational pattern does not involve new programs, nor are any new functions or duties involved. The intent of the changes proposed is to improve the efficiency of present services and facilitate the orderly growth and development of the work of the College in publications and communications. The Dean of the College of Agriculture further recommends the following appointments: A. W. Janes, presently Editor with the rank of Associate Professor, as Head of the Office of Publications with rank of Associate Professor; and Hadley Read, presently Extension Editor and Professor of Agricultural Extension, as Head of the Office of Agricultural Communications, Assistant Director of the Cooperative Extension Service in Agriculture, and Professor of Agricultural Extension. The Executive Vice-President and Provost concurs in these administrative changes and appointments. I recommend approval.
