UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS MEMORIAL T O MRS. NELLIE VOIGHT FREEMAN

195

Mr. Pogue offered the following resolution.

The Board of Trustees records with deep sorrow the death on October 14, 1962, of Mrs. Nellie Voight Freeman of Mattoon, a former member of this Board. Mrs. Freeman (Nellie Voight) was born in Mattoon March 12, 1873. She married Dr. T. O. Freeman of that city in December, 1898, who died in October, 1932. Mrs. Freeman devoted much of her life to education and to civic affairs — as a teacher in the public schools of Mattoon, prior to her marriage, as an officer at the local and state levels in parent-teacher associations, as an officer of the Women's Auxiliary of the Illinois State Medical Society, in the Business and Professional Women's Club of her community, and as a worker for her church. Mrs. Freeman served as a member of the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois from 1933-39, and on its Committees on Buildings and Grounds, Agriculture, Chicago Departments, and Student Welfare and Activities, being Chairman of the latter Committee for five years. In all these assignments she discharged her responsibilities faithfully and effectively. The Board of Trustees desires to pay tribute to the memory of a former colleague who served her community and the state of Illinois, by incorporating this resolution in the official minutes of today's meeting and by sending copies to the surviving members of Mrs. Freeman's family as an expression of the Board's sympathy. This resolution was unanimously adopted. SECRETARY'S REPORTS
