TRUSTEES

[July 25

WATER RESOURCES BUILDING (31) The Board of Natural Resources and Conservation requests that the new building being constructed on Springfield Avenue for the State W a t e r Survey Division be named "Water Resources Building." I concur. O n m o t i o n of D r . M e y e r , t h i s n a m e w a s a p p r o v e d . ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR T H E COLLEGE O F COMMERCE A N D BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (32) For fifteen years, the College of Commerce and Business Administration has had a number of advisory committees of business and professional men selected from the business fields represented in the College educational program. At one time there were twelve of these committees with a total personnel of over one hundred. They were inactive. Most of them never met and were not called upon for service. Last year the Dean set out to reactivate and reorganize these committees. As a first step, these committees were reduced in size to a total personnel of fifty. This spring all members were invited to a meeting at Allerton Park. A substantial number attended and a profitable two-day session was held to discuss the educational program of the College of Commerce. T h e attendance at this meeting also indicated which members of the older committees were still interested in serving. The Dean recommends that in the future the College have a single advisory committee which will meet regularly once a year. H e has invited the more active and interested members of the former committees to become members of the single new committee. H e has also invited a number of business and professional men who have not previously had any connection with the College to join the new committee. H e recommends that the former committees be replaced by a single "Advisory Committee of the College of Commerce and Business Administration," and he nominates the following for membership: WALDO AMES, Partner, Moore, Case, Lyman, and Hubbard J. C. ASPLEY, President, The Dartnell Corporation WILLIAM BLACKIE, Vice-President, Caterpillar Tractor Company H . W . BURKITT, President, The Eureka Williams Corporation K. D.
