UNDERGRADUATE INSTRUCTIONAL AWARDS FOR THE SUMMER OF 1 9 6 7 (6) In order to encourage faculty interest in improving the quality of undergraduate instruction, the program of Undergraduate Instructional Awards initiated for the summer of 1965 is proposed for continuation during the summer of 1967. The awards provide a full-time salary for two months (two-ninths of the academic-year salary), plus funds for required incidental expenses.
