|---|---|---|---|
| University of Idaho-Athletics | It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and failed that the administration of the University of Idaho be charged with developing a plan for the resolution of its financial problems in athletics, consistent with the interests of its sister Idaho institutions as well as its own, and predicated upon the expenditure of not more appropriated funds than are to be budgeted for fiscal 1974 in athletics.
It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carries that the following be adopted: That the Planning committee of the State Board of Education, in conjunction with the administration of the three Idaho schools of higher education involved in the Big Sky Conference, develop a plan for the resolution of problems in athletics that exist at all the schools predicated upon the expenditure of not more appropriated funds than are to be budgeted for fiscal 1974 in athletics. Mr. McCollum abstained. |
2/1-2/73 | 39 |
| Degrees- Master of Engineering | Currently the M.S. degree with thesis is authorized in all departments of the College of Engineering (Agricultural Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering). The engineering faculty wishes to permit certain students to substitute appropriate course work for the master’s thesis; and to protect the research character of the degree of Master of Science, the faculty wishes to designate the non-thesis option as Master of Engineering. It is only the introduction of the new degree title which defines this as a new program. It will involve only courses now being offered. It will require no new faculty, staff, equipment, or other expense. (General curriculum report #24.) It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the degree of Master of Engineering be approved in the fields of agricultural engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, and mechanical engineering, effective immediately. |
2/1-2/73 | 59-60 |
| Approval to Grant Degrees- Fall 1972 | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that degrees be granted to persons who completed requirements for degrees this past fall semester and who have been approved by the faculty as certified by the Registrar. About 240 Baccalaureate, 72 Graduate and 1 Law degrees are involved. Names of persons receiving degrees will appear in the copy of the 1973 Commencement program officially confirmed by the Registrar, a copy of which will be forwarded to the Office of Higher Education for permanent file. | 2/1-2/73 | 60 |
| Budget Transfers | It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the budget transfers, shown by Exhibit II, be approved. A copy of Exhibit II is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 2/1-2/73 | 60 |
| Change in Allotment Request | Report is made of the submission of a Change of Allotment Request for the purpose of increasing the University of Idaho second half year allotment by the portion allocated to the University by the Board of Regents from the Higher Education contingency fund. | 2/1-2/73 | 61-62 |
| Requisitions | It was moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carries that the following requisition be approved:
Requisition # 1751U, Blueprint Serv., Item: Offset Duplicator and accessories, Amount: $5,396.23 Requisition # 9030U, Bean Breeding, Item: ½ ton truck, Amount: $3,500 Requisition # 10883U, Vet Sci., Item: Suburban carryall, Amount: $3,000 Requisition # 11335U, Forestry, Item: Suburban carryall, Amount: $2,500 Requisition # 11336U, FWR Admin., Item: ¾ ton 4-wheel drive pickup, Amount: $2,500 Requisition # 21623U, Entomology, Item: Suburban carryall, Amount: $2,700 Requisition # 01640B, Handball Ct.

2/1-2/73 | 62-63 |
| Sales | It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to sell to the highest qualified bidders the progeny of 30 snap bean crosses developed at the Twin Falls Branch Station Bean Research Laboratory.
This will release to the public by means of sale, the specified patented strains of beans developed through research at this station. The amount of income which may be received from this sale is impossible to estimate, since a large part of the possible yield will be derived from the royalty of 3 cents per pound on all seed produced. Should the strains be especially successful, the royalty income could be significant; if not, the income will be negligible. Income derived from this sale will be placed in a Restricted Current account to be used for the support of further research of this type, not necessarily limited to beans. Advertisements for the sale of these patented strains of beans have been placed in appropriate publications and are to be opened, at which time bids could be accepted or rejected, on 5 February 1973. |

| Demolition of Houses for Parking Area | Re: Regents’ Minutes for August 5-6, 1965, page 42.
The above reference explained University plans and secured Regents’ approval for property acquisition and completion of a parking lot immediately east of the Student Union Building in three phases. Phase A and Phase B have been completed, and in 1965 it was estimated that Phase C would be completed about the summer of 1975. To do this work involves eliminating five old houses owned by the University, one of which was damaged during the weekend 9-10 December 1972. At that time the heating boiler in the house, 706 Deakin Avenue, quit working. This resulted in a freeze-up of the water pipes, boiler, heating pipes, radiator, plumbing fixtures and traps. The estimated cost to repair these items is $5,800. The fact that the boiler was essentially worn out has been known for some time, but we decided that, because of the overall condition of the building, replacing the boiler or accomplishing other major repairs of he building would not be economically justified. Three of the other four houses mentioned above are in extremely poor condition, and the remaining house is in fair condition. Removing all five of these old houses at the same time would be most economically sensible. Specifically, we should complete plans and specifications within the next few weeks, and early in the spring bid the removal of the houses and the completion of Phase C of the parking project. This will provide parking for about 57 more cars. There is an increasingly critical need for this additional parking. Financial plans were previously mentioned, when Regents’ approval to proceed with this development was secured in 1965. This matter is again being reviewed with the Regents because of the length of time since this matter was cleared with the Board. Approval to proceed with this project is requested. The University also owns another old house near the area described above, 412 College Avenue, which is in an extremely poor state of repair. Because of the age and overall condition of the house, expenditures to repair it are not justified. Accordingly, arrangements will be made to have this house removed and grass planted on that site, when the aforementioned work is accomplished. It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the Bursar be permitted to solicit bids for (a) the removal of six houses at the following locations which are owned by the University: 706 Deakin Avenue, 420 Narrow Street, 416 Narrow Street, 410 Narrow Street, 406-404 Narrow Street, and 412 College Avenue, and (b) the extension of University parking facilities as previously described, with the understandings that (a) the work will be completed in the summer of 1973, (b) the cost of removing these buildings, completing the Student Union parking development, and accomplishing related work will total less than $50,000, and (c) this cost will be covered by nonappropriated funds that have been expressly reserved in the Student Union Bond redemption fund. |

| Tour by Vandaleers | Report is made of a Vandaleer tour to be made in March, 1973. This tour was planned by the School of Music, the Alumni Office and the Associated Students. It will involve about 40 students and 3 faculty members and involve concerts in Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California and Nevada. Total travel time will be about two weeks. Transportation will be by charter bus. Proper insurance coverage exists. The cost of the tour is expected to total about $6,135. This will be covered by a contribution of $1,000 from the A.S.U.I., concert income, other contributions and non-budgeted funds. | 2/1-2/73 | 72 |

| Establishment of John B. George Memorial Trust Fund | One thousand dollars was received on January 23, 1973, along with a request that it, along with other funds expected to be received, be invested in the University’s Consolidated Investment Trust with the earnings to be used for an annual award to the outstanding graduating senior of the college of Mines. Mr. George, a pioneer mining man and resident of Kellogg, Idaho, died last month.
It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the Bursar be permitted (a) to establish a fund to be known as the John B. George Memorial Trust Fund with money received for this fund, (b) to invest the fund as part of the University’s Consolidated Investment Trust Fund, and (c) to utilize the earnings from this fund in accordance with a trust agreement, the specific details of which the Bursar is to work out to comply with the desires of the creators of the Trust. |

| Fund Transfer to University of Idaho Foundation, Inc. | Re: 1. Regents’ Minutes for 30 May 1972, page 82. 2. Regents’ Minutes for 20 October 1972, page 68. Reference 1 indicates that unrestricted gifts and bequests received in the name of the University of Idaho or the Regents may be credited to the University of Idaho Foundation, Inc., but specifies that in each case prior to making such a transfer to the Foundation, the item will be reported to the Regents and their approval to make the transfer secured. Reference 2 cites the last transfer of this type which was submitted to and authorized by the Regents. Twenty shares of common stock of the Union Pacific Corporation has been contributed to the University by an individual. He asked that the President credit this gift “as deemed advisable,” and authority to transfer this stock to the University of Idaho Foundation, Inc., in accordance with the provisions quoted in the paragraph above, is requested. It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to transfer to the University of Idaho Foundation, Inc., stock certificate number H025235 for twenty shares of common stock of the union Pacific Corporation received as an unrestricted gift by the University. |
2/1-2/73 | 74 |

| Approval to Settle Contract | Re: Regents’ Minutes for October 1971, page 82.
The above reference presents Regents; authority to settle certain claims involving the architect and contractors for the University Swimming Center in accordance with recommendations of the University Attorney. The University Attorney felt that we would be able to collect $12,719.55 from the architect and settle a claim of $3,041.10 by the mechanical contractor, Babbitt Electric and Refrigeration Company for $200.00, and a settlement on this basis was approved by the Regents. We did collect from the architect, but Mr. Babbitt sued the Regents for the $3,041.10. The issue involved the amount that should be authorized the contractor for profit and overhead. The suit was scheduled to go to trial on February 1, 1973. In accordance with recommendations of legal counsel representing the University, this matter has been settled out of court by a compromise settlement under which the University paid the contractor the sum of $1,548.30, to include filing fees and service costs. A final decision on whether to settle or go to trial had to be made January 29, 1973. Since the University’s attorneys felt that it would be in the University’s best interests to settle, in this case, the Bursar authorized the settlement. The total amount of Mr. Babbitt’s contract on the Swimming Center amounted to $336, 443.93. It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the action of the University Bursar in authorizing a payment in the amount of $1,548.30 to Mr. Loyale Babbitt, rather than a payment of $200.00 as previously approved by the Regents, be ratified. |
2/1-2/73 | 77-78 |
| Addition of Student Members on the Faculty Council | At the meeting of the Faculty Senate of the University of Idaho held 26 January 1973, the following action was adopted.
That Article V of the Constitution of the University Faculty be amended to provide for the election of three undergraduate students and one graduate student to serve as voting members on the Faculty Council, and that the Faculty Council be empowered to determine the details to implement the foregoing; further, that instead of electing the student members who will serve for the balance of the 1972-73 membership year, they be appointed by the President of the University after consultation with the duly constitutes student government organizations on the campus. The addition of students as voting members will improve communications and broaden the spectrum of opinions and viewpoints represented on the Faculty Council (administrators are already represented as presidential appointees). It is requested that the Board ratify the amendment as soon as possible so that the student members may be seated and begin their service on the council at an early date. It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the above recommendation be approved, effective immediately. |
2/1-2/73 | 78 |
| Policy Governing Vacation Leaves for Twelve-month Employees | Re: Regents’ minutes for October 1972, page 9.
The above reference announced the following policy: “Vacation leave for all faculty and other exempt employees who are employed on a fiscal year basis shall be two days per month with a maximum accumulation of thirty days. Further, that any employees at the University of Idaho who have accumulated in excess of thirty days of vacation leave by October 31, 1972, shall be allowed to take such excess leave prior to June 30, 1974.” It is requested that this policy be changed as follows: “Vacation leave for all faculty and other exempt employees who are employed on a fiscal year basis shall be two days per month with a maximum accumulation of thirty days. To permit phasing into this new leave policy in an orderly way, and to minimize disruption of work schedules and leave plans, University employees shall be permitted to accrue leave to a total of 44 working days, until June 30, 1973, and to take excess leave which they have accrued until June 30, 1974. Effective July 1, 1974, the maximum accumulation of vacation leave shall be thirty days.” The reason for this requested change is to permit a less abrupt transition into the new thirty-day limitation on accrued leave. As mentioned during the Regents’ meeting in December 1972, the policy as presently stated will cause unnecessary inconvenience in some cases and pressure employees who now have thirty or more days leave accrued to take leave as it accrues, in a way which is inconsistent with their plans and duties. It was moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that the revision of leave policy requested above be approved. |

| Distribution of President’s Annual Report for FY1972 | Record is made of the fact that the above report was distributed herewith. A copy is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 2/1-2/73 | 80 |
| Recommendation for Appointment | It was moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mr. McCollum and carried that the recommendation for appointment of Raymond Jarvis Miller as Director of Experiment Station and Associate Dean, College of Agriculture, University of Idaho, at an annual salary of $28,500, be approved. | 2/1-2/73 | 80 |
| Christmas Bonuses for ASUI Secretaries | The ASUI Senate, in December, decided to reward both ASUI secretaries for their fine performance and hard work they have done on our behalf since the first of July. Therefore, the Senate and myself (UI President) thought it appropriate to give both secretaries $100 bonuses, the monies of which would be appropriated from an excess amount of money accrued in one area of the budget. We have since learned that present university policies prohibit the granting of such bonuses since it constitutes, in the University’s eyes, a pay raise. I find this to be one of the most distressing and upsetting matters during my term of office. In this particular instance, we have two secretaries who have worked ten and twelve hour days plus weekends throughout the year for a wage that is at or slightly below present poverty levels established by the federal government. I respectfully ask in this particular instance that the Regents waive whatever policy infringes upon the payment of these monies.
It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Alford and approved that for this year only the $00 bonuses be allowed for the ASUI secretaries, and that next year the ASUI establish its budget for payment of overtime, if this occurs. |

4/6/73 | 77-78 |
| Revision of General Academic Regulation “0-2” | Subsequent to the Board’s approval of the Statement of Student Rights for the University of Idaho, it was recognized that the general academic regulation headed “Academic Performance” would need to be brought into conformity with the basic protections guaranteed by the Statement, particularly to distinguish between “evaluation” and “penalty,” and to provide for appeals and hearings. The following revised regulation “0-2” was approved by the University Faculty at the meeting of February 27, 1973 and conforms to the principles of the Statement of Student Rights.
2. Academic Performance. Instructors and students are responsible for maintaining academic standards and integrity in their classes. An instructor may reduce a student’s grade for dishonesty in a course, but the effect shall not be greater than the proportionate value of the work involved to the total requirements. If the student deems the reduction of the grade unfair, he or she may appeal through the Academic Hearing Board. Disciplinary penalties for academic dishonesty must be judicially imposed. It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Dr. Swartley, and carried that the above revision of general academic regulation “0-2” be approved. |
4/6/73 | 78-79 |
| Revision of General Academic Regulation “B-11-a” | The pass-fail option was instituted at the University of Idaho with the 1969 catalog. Moving cautiously, the University Faculty set a maximum of twelve credits under this option and limited it to juniors and seniors. After reviewing our experience and the experience of other institutions, the faculty has now approved (7 March 1973) a slight expansion. Under the new regulations, freshman and sophomores will also be able to take one course each semester under the option, and the total allowable number of credits in courses of this type applicable toward a baccalaureate degree has been increased from twelve to eighteen.
Therefore, approval is requested for the following revised regulations “B-11-a” as printed in the catalog supplement of the 1972-73 Time Schedule: a. UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS. With the approval of their advisers, undergraduate students who have a cumulative grade-point average of 2.00 or higher are permitted to enroll in one course per semester under this “pass-fail option.” (The grade-point requirements are not applicable to students who are taking university-level courses for the first time.) This procedure is separate from taking courses which are regularly graded on the basis of P or F. Undergraduates are not permitted to take the following courses under the pass-fail option: Eng 101 and 201, courses in the student’s major subject field, and courses excluded from this option by the academic department in which the student is majoring. (In the case of interdepartmental curricula, e.g., American studies, agribusiness, etc., “academic department” means the departments, colleges, and/or other units involved.) Departments usually exclude courses which are closely related to the major field. A maximum of eighteen credits earned under this regulation may be counted toward a baccalaureate degree. It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the above revision of regulation “B-11-a” be approved. |
4/6/73 | 79-80 |
| General Catalog for 1973-74 | At the request of the Faculty Council, the University of Idaho’s general catalog has been entirely rewritten to “neuterize” it, i.e., to get away from the constant repetition of “he,” “him,” and “his.” In many instances it was necessary to restructure paragraphs and sections.
To assure the continuing force of re-edited provisions, and to provide a new starting point when researching questions relating to Regents’ approval of specific provisions, it is requested that the 1973-74 general catalog be approved. All substantive changes (e.g., new courses, curricula, degrees) have been presented individually and have received Board approval. The catalog is on the press as this agenda is being prepared. Copies were distributed at the meeting in Moscow. It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the 1973-74 University of Idaho General Catalog be approved. |
4/6/73 | 80 |
| Budget Transfers | It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the following Budget Transfers be approved:

4/6/73 | 81-82 |
| Budget for 1973 PUEC | It was moved by Mrs. Hay, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the budget for the 1973 PUEC be approved and that payments to staff members in addition to certified salaries, payments to visiting faculty, honoraria, and travel allowances be authorized as listed in Exhibit III.
Note: That exhibit requests that tax withholdings not be made in the case of visiting faculty. Federal and State law requires such withholdings in the case of employees but excludes payments to “independent contractors.” Such a classification is generally permitted in the case of physicians, lawyers, dentists, contractors, sub-contractors and others pursuing an independent trade, business, or profession as such. In any event, at this time the University will continue to withhold federal and state tax and FICA tax from the salary of visiting faculty members pending the receipt of a written opinion or other authoritative ruling that such withholding is not necessary. |

| The Commemorative Art Scholarship Fund | Miss Mary Kirkwood, Professor Art, Emerita, has requested that the scholarship she originally established as the “Mary Kirkwood Scholarship” and later at her request renamed the “Margarete Ann Walters Memorial Scholarship” (See Regents’ action April 1, 1971) be renamed “The Commemorative Art Scholarship Fund.” Miss Kirkwood has the warm approval of Miss Walters’ family and the endorsement of the art faculty. It is the feeling of the above that the fund will be subject to more growth through contributions with the proposed new name. At this time Miss Kirkwood is making a cash contribution of $210 to be currently awarded from this fund and an additional contribution to the principal of the fund of 17 shares of common stock of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company.
It was moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the name change requested above be approved. |
4/6/73 | 83 |
| Lucile Bondurant Scholarship | A letter was received from Lucille Bondurant requesting that minor changes, as explained below, be made in her scholarship trust agreement previously approved by the Board of Regents.
1. The requirement that recipients be members of the National Broadcasting Honorary Fraternity (alpha Epsilon Rho) is to be deleted because of the inactivity of this fraternity on the University campus. It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the changes explained above be approved. |
4/6/73 | 83-84 |
| Addition to Trust | In accordance with the desires of a donor, 3,843.095 shares of Investors Stock Fund, Inc. (held in a separate life income account) were redeemed on January 10, 1973. Book cost value of these securities was $78,613.91. Proceeds of $87,203.67 produced a capital gain of $8,589.76. As requested by the donor, proceeds of the transaction, along with the additional contribution cited below, have been added to an existing trust within the Consolidated Investment Trust, for use after the death of the donor to provide support for the Physics Department.

| Establishment of Law Wives Loan Fund | It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that a student loan fund account, known as the Carol Hogan McGrath Memorial Loan Fund, be established as requested by the donor in the letter attached as Exhibit IV. | 4/6/73 | 85 |
| University Scholarship Endowment | In 1961, the Regents established a County Honor Awards program payable from earnings of the University Scholarship Endowment within the Consolidated Investment Trust. At that time, endowment earnings enabled the granting of 44 awards of $100 each, one award to be made to a student from each county within the state. Although it was intended that the amount of the annual award per student be determined by the availability of funds from endowment earnings, no policy statement was made to that effect. The University has in fact raised the amount of these annual awards as income has increased and our external auditors have recommended that we obtain formal Regents’ approval for this procedure. To illustrate, in 1961 available income was $4,651.08. Through distributed capital gains since 1961, annual incomes in fees in 1961 were $77.00 per semester and now are $178.00 per semester. For the aforementioned reasons, it is recommended that the University Office of Student Financial Aids and the Office of Financial Affairs be given the authority to adjust the amount of the County Honor Awards to a figure compatible with the income realized from the University Scholarship Endowment fund. It is proposed that about 44 scholarship awards per year continue to be made through this program.
It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the above proposal be approved. A copy of Exhibit IV is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |
4/6/73 | 85 |
| Grace M. Schwartz Scholarship Fund | In 1965 the Regents established this scholarship program as being available to students from high schools in Bonner County (Sandpoint, Priest River, and Clark Fork) who have substantial need. The value of the scholarship awards to be made was set at $300. Since the date of establishment of the program, costs for attending the University of Idaho have increased considerably, as has the amount of the earnings in this fund. Endowment earnings available in 1967 amounted to $1,250. Through capital growth, earnings available in this fund last fiscal year amounted to $3,136.
Accordingly, it is appropriate to adjust the amount of the scholarship awards under this program. Approval to make awards between $300 and $500 in each case, with the amount of the award to be determined by the level of need, as established by the Student Financial Aids Office, is requested. In all cases, need will still be the primary criterion for selecting recipients for these scholarship awards. It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the above proposal be approved. |
4/6/73 | 85-86 |
| Application for Research Grants and Awards | It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the Applications for Research Grants and Awards listed in Exhibit V be approved. | 4/6/73 | 86 |

4/6/73 | 86 |
| Acceptance of Gifts and Bequests | It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the acceptance of gifts and bequest, listed in Exhibit VII, be approved. A copy of Exhibits V, VI and VII is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 4/6/73 | 86 |
| Rental Rates for Phase II- Housing | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the following rates be approved for the new housing units, effective the summer of 1973:
$100 per month for one-bedroom units |
4/6/73 | 86-87 |
| Late Diploma Fee | Upon recommendation of the Registrar and with the concurrence of the Controller’s Office, it is recommended that the late diploma fee of $5 be discontinued immediately. This fee has become essentially a “nuisance” fee and results in ill-feeling on the part of the student which the income produced does not justify.
It was moved by Dr. Swartley, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the late diploma fee be discontinued effective immediately. |
4/6/73 | 87 |
| Payments in Addition to Certified Salary | It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that the following payments in addition to certified salary be approved:

| Construction of New Roads and Sidewalks | The new Law Building and Performing Arts Center are both scheduled to be occupied by this coming fall. Completion of these buildings requires the extension of certain roads and walkways. At this time we are completing specifications to bid the extension of a 20-foot wide roadway and 6-foot walkway, both of macadam, west from Rayburn Avenue, immediately south of the new Law Building. The walkway will handle pedestrian traffic and the roadway will handle one-way vehicular traffic, linking up with a 44-foot wide macadam road with concrete sidewalks extending from Sixth Street to the south. This latter road and walkways will pass to the east of the new Performing Arts building. There will be a temporary graveled turnaround area at the end of this road and a temporary graveled extension of this road onto the graveled parking area west of the University stadium. This temporary extension will be 24 feet wide. A 6-foot macadam walkway will parallel he road so that people will be able to park west of the stadium and walk to the campus, or to the Performing Arts Center or Law Building. Long-range plans call for the eventual improvement and extension of this graveled road. It will become “Stadium Road” and intersect Perimeter Drive between the new stadium and new track facility. It may be several years before this latter construction is undertaken, since funds for that construction are not yet in sight. However, budgetary provisions have been made to do the aforementioned work as a plant outlay project, funded by the operating budgets for the current and next fiscal year.
It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that the Bursar be permitted to request bids for the aforementioned work, accept the lowest responsive bids, and sign contracts for the completion of this work this coming summer, with the understandings that the work is estimated to cost about $75,000 and that the cost will be covered as a standard, budgeted, plant outlay project. |

| Street Repairs and Development | Two budgeted plant outlay projects involve (a) minor repairs of campus streets, and (b) the construction of part of a road and walkway from Rayburn Street to about the rear of the new College of Law Building. (Approval to extend this road and walkway is requested as agenda item 5.11 above.) Bids for projects “a” and “b” mentioned above were received last September; however, the bids were higher than our estimates of what the cost of this work should be. We felt that we might be able to get lower bids if we asked for them this spring, and so the previous bids were rejected. New bids for this work were obtained and opened on April 5, 1973. The new bids are $1,588 below the bids received last fall, are within the budget, and we now request authority to accept these bids.
It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the lowest bids for the aforementioned work be accepted, and that the Bursar be permitted to sign a contract with the bidder, Northwest Paving of Pullman, Washington, for about $13,123 for the completion of this work |

| Approval of Projects to Correct Safety Deficiencies | A State inspector has pointed out the need to construct an emergency exit from the second floor of the Food Science Building and two fire exits in Art and Architecture buildings. It is estimated that this work can be accomplished for about $17,500. Necessary funds are available within the budget for plant outlay projects.
It was moved by Mrs. Hay, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the Bursar be permitted to request bids for the construction of the three emergency exits cited above, accept the lowest responsive bids and sign contracts for the completion of this work. |
4/6/73 | 89 |
| Acceptance of Facilities | It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that acceptance of the following projects as completed be ratified.
Project: New Steam and Condensate Lines Project: Paradise Creek Channel Restoration and Trash Catcher This project, carried out in connection with other stream channel work in the Moscow area under the general supervision of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with “flood damage” funds allocated by the U.S. Office of Emergency Preparedness, has been completed. |

| Statement of Mission, functions, and Objectives of the University of Idaho | We have had a long-standing need for an official statement of the mission, functions, and objectives of the University of Idaho. Two current operations require adoption as soon as possible.
1. Requirement of a statement by the Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools. We are now undergoing the institutional self-study which the association requires for their accreditation visit in 1974. 2. The general curriculum review now being conducted by the Planning Committee of the Board of Regents. The Statement of Mission, Functions, and Objectives presented as Exhibit VIII is the culmination of a five-year effort begun in 1967. It has included inputs from Faculty Council, Administrative Council, the ASUI, the Cooperative Extension Service, Alumni, members for which the University prepares practitioners. It was moved by Dr. Swartley, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the “Statement of Mission, Functions, and Objectives of the University of Idaho,” as presented in Exhibit VIII be referred to the Planning Committee for review. A copy of Exhibit VIII is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Payment Source for Position of Business Manager/Investment Officer | The above-mentioned position is now paid for from the general operating budget. In accordance with efforts being made to reduce the subsidy of auxiliary activities by this budget, this position should now be paid for from other funds. The scope of the University’s investment activities includes the short-term investment of cash and investments in securities and real estate. More and more time is required to properly manage such investments and to complete related administration, such as trust administration and work toward the creation of the proposed Palouse Empire Mall.
It would now be advisable to have one full-time Investment Officer. The scope of the University’s investment programs are such that the salary for this position can now appropriately be covered from charges to investment earnings. Therefore, such a change in the funding of the Business Manager/Investment Officer position is proposed. As soon as possible, the incumbent in the position, Mr. H. Eugene Slade, will be utilized full-time in areas relating to investment management. This change in funding will free funds now in the general operating budget to permit the hiring of an internal auditor. External auditors have urged that the University keep the position of internal auditor filled by a qualified auditor, and such an individual is sorely needed. However, it was necessary to designate the person who was the internal auditor as the Assistant Business Manager, to free the Business Manager for work as explained above. Thus, no one is now assigned as internal auditor, although the function is being performed in a makeshift way. Efforts are being made to find a suitable person to be internal auditor, and the position will be filled as soon as possible, if the financing to make this possible is approved as recommended in this action. It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that effective July 1, 1973, financing for the position of Investment Officer be covered by charges to the University’s investment programs, the exact charge to each such program, which may need to be changed from time to time, being established by the Bursar, in a manner which is equitable and proper. |

| Appointment and Responsibilities of College Deans | For some time it has been evident that the current statement in the University of Idaho’s Handbook of Policy and Procedure (pp. 89-90) relating to the appointment and responsibilities of college deans needs to be more explicit. A revision of that statement was undertaken about a year ago. The revision recommended with this agenda (see enclosed Exhibit IX) was developed with the participation of the Academic Vice President, the college deans, and the Faculty Council. It was approved by the University Faculty at the meeting of 7 March 1973.
It was moved by Mrs. Hay, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the revised statement relating to the appointment and responsibilities of college deans (see enclosed Exhibit IX) be approved. A copy of Exhibit IX is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |
4/6/73 | 92 |
| Revised Research Policies for the University of Idaho | To supplement the Board’s basic policies covering research and grants (Section 805 of the Board’s Policy Manual) approval is recommended for the revised research policies for the University of Idaho contained in Exhibit X. This revision was developed by the Research Council and the Faculty Council, and was approved without dissent at the meeting of the University Faculty held on January 26, 1973. These policies replace statements related to research in the University of Idaho’s Handbook of Policy and Procedure (1972 revision) pp. 38-39, 50-51, and 135.
The revised statement will bring the University into conformity with federal regulations relating to investigations involving human subjects, clarifies the role of the Coordinator of Research up-dates the definitions of grant, contract, and cooperative-agreement research, and attempts to make explicit the research responsibilities of faculty members as well as administrators at all levels. Item E-6 of the revision involves a change in emphasis with respect to “classified” research projects. It was the Faculty Council’s feeling that the results of research undertaken and performed by a public institution should be available to the public, unless there are compelling reasons to the contrary. Item E-6 provides that the University normally avoids undertaking research projects the release of whose program content or results is to be in any way restricted. However, the Research Council is not prohibited from approving a classified project if there is a compelling reason to conduct the research. It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the proposed revision of the University of Idaho’s research policies as recommended above, and as shown in Exhibit X, be approved. A copy of Exhibit X is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Change of Unit Name from “Reserve Officers’ Training Corp” to “Officer Education Program” | As a result of growing concern and interest on the part of the U.S. Department of Defense, as well as several of the national associations concerned with higher education, to further the integration of the faculties of the various ROTC units with the academic life of the institutions to which they are attached, approval is requested for a change of unit name from “Reserve Officers’ Training Corps” to “Officer Education Program.”
This above change was recommended by the University of Idaho’s ROTC Affairs Committee, February 12, 1973, and has the support of the three ROTC departments. The recommended change of name is consistent with similar changes being made in colleges and universities throughout the United States. It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the above recommendation be approved. |
4/6/73 | 93-94 |
| Student Code of Conduct | At the meeting of November 12, 1970, the Board directed that all student disciplinary regulations be codified and published in a “Student Code of Conduct.” Accordingly, the codification has been completed and was approved by a substantial majority at the meeting of the University Faculty held on February 27, 1973. Faculty approval was required under the delegation of authority for the establishment of rules and regulations governing the conduct of students which is contained in Chapter VIII of the Bylaws of the Regents of the University of Idaho (Constitution of the Faculty), Article IV, Section 5.
Section III, Paragraph 5, of the Board-approved “Statement of Student Rights” requires that before disciplinary regulations adopted by the Faculty can take effect they must be published. Authorization to publish the new Code is therefore requested. All segments of the University participated over a two-year period in the development of the Code and it represents a general consensus of a vast majority of the various constituencies of the University of Idaho. It is recognized that this code will need to be used and tested for a time before it can be known for certain that all problems have been solved; however, the Faculty recognized the urgency of completing the document so that problems which have resulted from not having a unified and orderly statement of disciplinary regulations can be overcome. As experience demonstrates the need for amendments, they will be made. It is the sincere hope of the Faculty Council that if it is determined that additional changes are needed, the Board will return the Code for further work prior to taking final Board action. It was moved by Mr. McCollum and seconded by Mr. Alford that the “Student Code of Conduct” (Exhibit XI) be accepted with the exception of that portion, “Article VIII Drugs and Alcohol,” and that this portion be referred to the Planning Committee. A copy of Exhibit XI is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Report of Change of Subject Signature with B.S. Degree in Recreation | Re: Board Minutes of 7-8 December 1972, pp. 38-39.
In accordance with the Board’s permission for University of Idaho colleges to update the subject signatures with currently-authorized curricula leading to the B.S. degree, report is made of the fact that the College of Education has substituted the word “Recreation” for “Education” with the B.S. degree to be earned by students completing the currently-authorized non-teaching curriculum in recreation in that college. Thus, after the 1973 commencement, students who complete the recreation curriculum in the College of Education will become candidates for the degree of Bachelor Science in Recreation, rather that the B.S. Ed. |

| University of Idaho Foundation | It was moved by Dr. Munson and seconded by Mr. Alford that the State Board of Education and Board of Regents of the University of Idaho adopt the following resolution:
Resolved, that the University of Idaho Foundation is designated as the agent of this Board for the receipt, administration and management of funds held or received in trust for the benefit of the University of Idaho; provide, however, that this Board shall retain exclusive power over the manner, methods and procedures through which the funds are invested; and Further resolved, that the Bursar acting on behalf of this Board shall offer such agency to the University of Idaho Foundation and should the Board of Directors of that Foundation resolve to accept the responsibility thereof then the Bursar is authorized to work with the designated officer of the Foundation and to do all acts necessary and convenient in causing said funds to be transferred to said Foundation and to do such further acts as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of these resolutions; and Further resolved, that until otherwise directed by this Board, the Bursar shall deal with the investment of the trust funds in the manner, and with the methods and procedures, presently in effect. |

4/6/73 | 97-98 |
| Approval of Operating Budgets for 1973-74 | Proposed, summary operating budgets for General Education, Agricultural Research, Cooperative Extension and Short Term Applied Research for next fiscal year were mailed to the Office of Higher Education on March 30, 1973. Provisions have been made for the financing needed to implement each of these budgets, with the exception of the budget for General Education. To provide sufficient financing for that budget, Regents’ approval is needed: (a) to increase student fees $12 per semester, (b) to increase non-resident tuition $50 per semester, and (c) to allocate to the University $176,000 of the Regents’ $400,000 contingency fund.
Dr. Munson and Mr. Alford voted negatively. It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the above-mentioned charges and allocation from the Regents’ contingency fund, and summary operating budgets are approved, with the understanding that the University Administration will compute and submit for Regents’ approval, specific salary proposals for individual University employees and detailed operating budgets. |

| Purchase Payment- Model 360/40 Computer | The University has a balance of $70,631.76 to pay on the purchase contract for the IBM Model 360/40 Computer. It is proposed that we use an anticipated increase in Land-Grant Endowment income projected for the current fiscal year to make a payment of $38,764.56 on the purchase contract. The lump sum payment will decrease our obligation next fiscal year by $22,830.96, and in addition, we will save about $700 in interest costs when the final payment is made July 1974.
The decrease in payment requirements during the next fiscal year ($22,830.96) will provide us a means of solving a problem of a projected deficit in the income account – Restricted Current, Computer Center- during 1973-74 fiscal year. With this action it will not be necessary to reduce our computer service operation next year to eliminate the deficit situation. Demands upon computer services have increased tremendously and consequently it would be extremely difficult to reduce the current services provided. It was moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that a payment in the amount of $38,764.56 be made on the purchase contract for the Model 360/40 Computer prior to 30 June 1973 and that the balance due be paid one-half during 1973-74 and the remainder in July 1974. |

| Establishment of President’s Scholarship Fund | In 1967 a “memorial” scholarship fund was created. Money for this fund came from miscellaneous sources, such as donations made in memory of deceased staff members in lieu of flowers. Additions to the fund have been made from time to time, and the fund now contains about $3,300. Criteria for awarding scholarships from earnings of this fund have not been formally established, and the Director of Student Financial Aids has requested the approval of such criteria. He has pointed out that, in view of the sources of funds involved, the criteria should be broad and flexible. His proposals are as follows:
1. That the scholarships awarded from this fund be designated as President’s Scholarships. 2. That the number of awards and amounts of these awards be determined each year by the Offices of Financial Affairs and Student Financial Aids, based upon earnings available for distribution, and the numbers and needs of qualified recipients. Initially, it is anticipated that each annual award will be about $250. 3. That these scholarships be awarded to outstanding and deserving students enrolled in or enrolling in the University of Idaho. 4. That the recipients of these awards be selected by the University’s Scholarship Committee, in coordination with the President’s Office. It was moved by Mr. McCollum, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the criteria for scholarship awards as described above be approved. |
4/6/73 | 101-102 |
| Application for Research Grants and Awards | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the following applications for research grants and awards be approved.
1. From the National Science Foundation, a grant of $93,964 by the College of Engineering for a project entitled “Radiation Enhanced Electrocatalysis” during the period July 1973 through June 1975. 2. From the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, a grant of $17,558 by the Department of Biological Sciences for a project entitled “Hormonal Control of Delayed Implantation” during the period 1 June 1973 through 31 May 1974. |

| Approval of Board Rates for 1973-74 | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the board rates shown below be approved for 1973-74. These rates are about $30 per semester higher than the rates for the current year. The increases are required because of increased food and labor costs.
Plan A – 400 points per semester @ .65 $260 |

| Medical Insurance Coverage for University Employees | Re: Regents’ Minutes for May 1972, pages 64 and 65
Medical insurance for full-time University employees has been purchased annually from the New England Mutual Life Insurance Company since 1956. Employees generally have been pleased with the service provided and other companies have not been invited to submit bids for this insurance. The University pays 75 percent of the cost of this coverage for participating employees. They pay 25 percent of the cost and may, by paying the full cost of such coverage. The above reference indicated that we planned to determine whether or not the University could affect a cost saving without incurring a loss in the quality of service being received by changing to another insurance company. However, we have not yet been able to get firm experience data for the last calendar year. This information is of primary importance before seeking bids for continued insurance coverage. Accordingly, we now wish to extend the current policy, which was scheduled to expire on 30 April, until 30 June 1973. This extension will enable us to furnish the necessary information to bidders and still allow adequate time for the bidding process and the analysis of bids received. In addition, it will place the renewal date at the start of the fiscal year, which is desirable for budgeting purposes. It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to extend current insurance coverage as explained above and then to request quotations from companies wishing to submit such quotations, with the understanding that Regents’ approval will be secured prior to signing a contract for insurance coverage past June 30, 1973. |

| Demolition and Removal of Two Buildings | The University’s requests for approval of the new Agricultural Sciences Building which is now being completed specified that the Entomology Research Laboratory and the Veterinary Sciences Building would be removed when the new building was occupied. The Entomology Research Laboratory is a frame building which was constructed about 1938. It is in extremely poor condition and should be removed as soon as possible. Plans for the removal of this building and the extension of adjacent parking over the site of the present building have now been completed. The additional area will provide about 65 additional parking spaces. The Veterinary Sciences Building is another frame structure. It was received by the University as war surplus immediately after World War II. Plans are being completed to have the building removed and an adjacent parking area expanded over that site. This will provide about 9 additional parking spaces. The cost of the aforementioned work, funds for which are available within the budget for plant outlay projects, has been estimated at about $30,000.
It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. McCollum, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to advertise for bids, accept the lowest responsive bids, and sign contracts for the completion of the above-described work as soon as possible after occupation of the Agricultural Sciences Building. |
4/6/73 | 104-105 |
| Acceptance of Facilities | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the following contract be accepted as completed:

| Accrual of Sick Leave Prior to July 1, 1967 | In July, 1967, the Regents approved the University Administration’s recommendation that formal record-keeping pertaining to sick leave commence as of July 1, 1967, with University employees being credited with sick leave on that date in accordance with a specific schedule, based upon length of service. Prior to that time, a rather complicated “extended sick leave” policy was in effect.
In October, 1972, the Regents approved the following policy: “Existing faculty and professional employees shall retain any existing recorded sick leave as of October 31, 1972; however, if no record of sick leave has been kept for the faculty and professional staff, nine days of sick leave will be credited for each full year of service at Idaho institutions of higher education to a maximum of forty-five days.” Some employees were credited with more sick leave under the policy approved in 1967 than they would have been under the policy approved in 1972. For example, under the 1967 policy an employee with 20 years service was credited with 72 working days of sick leave on July 1, 1967. However, the policy approved in 1972 provided for a more generous crediting of accrued sick leave for many employees than did the earlier policy. For example, a person who had been employed by the University for nearly six years in 1967 was credited with 22 working days of sick leave under the old policy, while he would have been credited with 45 days sick leave under the policy announced in 1972. To avoid unfair treatment of any employee, it is recommended that persons who have been employed full-time by the University since before July 1, 1967, be permitted to elect to have their accrued sick leave as of that date computed by either the method approved in 1967 or 1972, with sick leave since that date accruing at the standard rate. This will not cause the University to incur any significant cost. There has never been a difference in the rate of accrual of sick leave for full-time employees based upon whether they were considered faculty, professional staff or classified personnel, and no differentiation in sick leave policy for such categories for employees is proposed. It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the above recommendation be approved. |

| Proposed Establishment of Rank of Senior Instructor | At the meeting of March 28,1973, the University Faculty recommended that the academic rank of senior instructor be established, and that all affected policies and regulations be amended to reflect the addition of this rank; further, that the following specific provisions shall be applicable to the rank of senior instructor.
1. Effective teaching is the primary responsibility of individuals holding the rank of senior instructor, and this primary responsibility shall be weighted accordingly in the annual performance evaluation. Senior instructors also have the responsibilities specified for instructors (see p. 87 of the Handbook of Policy and Procedure). 2. In addition to the qualifications for instructors (see p. 87 of the Handbook of Policy and Procedure) senior instructors must present evidence of outstanding teaching ability. 3. Except in very rare instances, the rank of senior instructor shall be considered as a terminal rank (no limitation on the number of reappointments; does not lead to promotion to the professorial ranks). Prospective appointees to this rank must be fully informed of its terminal nature. 4. At the time of initial appointment, the salary of a senior instructor normally will be comparable to that of an instructor. However, since it is assumed that individuals will hold this rank for an extended period of time (presumably receiving cost-of-living and merit increases) the average salary of senior instructors will be higher than the average for instructors, but below the average for assistant professors. 5. No individual who is a candidate for a doctoral degree in the college of the University in which he or she is teaching may be appointed to the rank of senior instructor, and no individual may be continued in this rank if he or she is advanced to candidacy for a doctoral degree in the college of the University in which he or she is teaching. 6. No more than fifteen percent of the positions in any department may be held by senior instructors; however, each department may appoint one individual to this rank even though, in some instances, this would exceed the fifteen percent limitation. It is understood that whether or not this academic rank eventually becomes tenurable will depend on Board actions with respect to the revision in the state-wide tenure policy. The faculty of the University of Idaho has recommended that the rank of senior instructor be tenurable; however, final action on that separate matter is not requested at this time. It was moved by Dr. Swartley, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the rank of senior instructor be established at the University of Idaho as recommended above. |

| Equipment for Law Building | Construction of the new law building is scheduled to be completed about July 15, 1973, and the state has appropriated $300,000 to equip and furnish this building. On March 27, 1973, the Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council authorized the University to request bids for such furnishings and equipment. After receiving and evaluating bids, the Council must grant approval before orders may be placed. If this approval can be obtained expeditiously, we hope to be able to place orders sometime about the middle or latter part of May. About four months then may be required to manufacture, ship and install purchases, which means that the College of Law will not be able to move until after the beginning of next semester. The need for authority to request bids early in 1973, if the college was to be moved this summer before the beginning of fall semester, and thus avoid academic disruptions, was previously emphasized in various budget submissions.
The Dean of the College is now planning for the College to move into its new building in early October. |

| Use of Funds Derived from Parking Fines | Re: Regents’ Minutes for October, 1971, page 72.
The above reference indicated that “about one-half” of the funds received from traffic fines would be used to cover the cost of traffic control on campus and related administration, to include salaries and accounting costs, purchase of parking decals, and the printing of traffic and parking regulations. Such costs currently total about $13,000 per year. Parking fines collected which are not needed to cover the aforementioned costs have been authorized for use as scholarship grants. Through March 15, 1973, parking fines totaling only $8,251 have been collected this fiscal year. Accordingly, it is anticipated that, for the foreseeable future, it will be necessary to use essentially all traffic fines collected toward the costs of traffic control on campus and related administration. Any traffic fines collected which are not needed to cover such costs will continue to be used to pay for scholarships. Also, it is planned, when possible, to employ students to assist in traffic and parking administration. |

To conform with the action of the Board of Examiners, the following motion is submitted for your approval:
It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and approved that the rates of allowance for travel expense for all persons under the governance of the Board of Regents of the University of Idaho, effective July 1, 1973, shall be actual cost of lodging, plus $7.50 per day within the state for meals or $10.00 per day without the state for meals, and the rate of mileage allowance shall be 12c per mile. |

| Clarification of Policies Relating to Grade Changes and Waivers of General Academic Requirements | During the 1970-71 academic year, a special committee undertook a complete revision of part 3 of the General Catalog. The committee reduced the bulk of the general regulations; however, some things the committee felt were universally understood, thus left out, have proved not to be universally understood. Therefore, approval is requested for the addition of the following statements to part 3 of the General Catalog:
Grades and Grade Changes The assignment of grades and changes in grades, whenever such changes occur, are the sole prerogative of the instructor and they are reported by the instructor directly to the Registrar on forms provided by the Registrar’s Office. With respect to grade changes, an instructor may only change a grade to a new grade that he or she could have assigned initially, i.e., A, B, C, D, F, P, I, IP. In response to a petition from a student, the Administrative Council’s Petitions Subcommittee may find that a grade change seems warranted. However, no grade is ever altered by the Subcommittee on its own authority because after a grade has been reported to the Registrar it may not be altered except by a written request stating the reasons for the alteration which shall be signed by the instructor who submitted the original grade. If the instructor cannot be contacted, the chairman of the department in which the course was offered may assume the prerogatives of the instructor in connection with the grade change. Waiver of General Academic Requirements A student may petition the Administrative Council for a waiver of any general academic requirement officially adopted by the University Faculty. All such requirements are printed in part 3 of the General Catalog. If the student deems the Administrative Council’s action on a petition to be unfair, he or she may appeal to the Academic Hearing Board. The Administrative Council’s authority to waive general academic requirements is normally discharged by its Petitions Subcommittee. Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the above statements be approved, effective immediately. |
6/13-15/73 | 57-58 |
| Revised Graduate School Regulations | For about fourteen months the Graduate Council has been engaged in a thorough study of the regulations of the Graduate School. The results of the deliberations of the Graduate Council and of the Faculty Council are presented for approval in the attached Exhibit IV. Among the substantive changes are:
1. “Provisional enrollment” in the Graduate School has been eliminated. Students will be enrolled either as “full enrollment” or “unclassified enrollment.” 2. “In absentia” registration provisions have been discontinued. When appropriate, graduate students may continue to conduct research and directed study off campus; however, a special registration category is no longer needed. 3. Some graduate courses taken by correspondence study may be counted toward a graduate degree, subject to the approval of the candidate’s committee. At the present time no such credits may be applied toward a graduate degree. 4. The residence requirement for a master’s degree has been reduced from twenty-two to twelve credits, with the understanding that individual departments may require a higher number of credits when appropriate. Many other changes have been made, although most are not substantive. Note that in the Exhibit the current requirement is stated followed by the change. Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the changes in the regulations of the Graduate School, as contained in the enclosed Exhibit IV, be approved, effective immediately. A copy of Exhibit IV is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Sale of Cattle | Report is made that bids were received on 21 March 1973 for the sale of 95 steers by the Caldwell Branch Station. High bidder for the steers was Armour & Company, Post Office Box 470, Nampa, Idaho, 83651 for $44,058.24 | 6/13-15/73 | 60 |
| Sale of Milk | With the phasing out of the Food Science Department, it has become necessary to dispose of milk produced by the College of Agriculture. After a canvass of possible buyers by Dr. John Montoure, only one purchaser was found for this milk. Accordingly, the University, upon recommendation of Dr. J. E. McCroskey, Head, Department of Animal Industries, has entered into a marketing agreement with the Inland Empire Dairy Association for the marketing of all milk produced by the University, at the blend price determined by the Federal Milk Order, effective 17 May 1973.
Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that approval of the above action be confirmed. |

| Sale of Property Located on Snake River in Owyhee County | Authority is requested to sell about 2 ½ acres of land adjacent to the Snake River in Owyhee County near Mountain Home which is owned by the University and which is no longer needed by the University. This land was bought in 1944 for $40 and was used in connection with certain research projects.
Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to advertise for sale the above mentioned land and to sell it to the highest bidder. |
6/13-15/73 | 61 |
| Sale of Swine | Report is made that bids were received on 21 May 1973 for the sale of 30 swine. Sale was made to the various individual bidders in a total amount of $1,422.85. | 6/13-15/73 | 61 |
| Sale of Timber from University Forest | Re: Regents’ Minutes for July 6, 1972, p.32.
The reference approved establishment of a restricted current account for the maintenance and improvement of the University Experimental Forest, with funds being deposited into that account from the sale of timber from salvage and harvest cuts. Bids were received on May 22, 1973 for approximately 1,200,000 board feet of timber to be secured from such cuts. Four bids were received and a contract for the sale was signed with the highest bidder, Bennett Lumber Products, Inc., Princeton, Idaho, at a price of $97 per thousand board feet. Moved by Mr. Engelking, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that approval of the aforementioned sale be ratified. |
6/13-15/73 | 61 |
| Application for Research Grants and Awards | Moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that the Applications for Research Grants and Awards as listed in Exhibit VIII be approved. | 6/13-15/73 | 62 |
| Application for Research Grants and Awards | Re: Regents’ Minutes for July 1972, Item 4.52, page 35.
The above reference authorizes the acceptance of grants and awards, the requests for which have been reported to the Regents. In accordance with this authority, acceptance of the grants and awards listed in Exhibit IX is reported. |
6/13-15/73 | 62 |
| Acceptance of Gifts and Bequests | Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Mr. Thatcher and carried that the acceptance of gifts and bequests, listed in Exhibit X, be approved. A copy of Exhibit VIII, IX, and X is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 6/13-15/73 | 62 |
| Acceptance of Bequest | Re: Regents’ Minutes for May 5, 1973, pp.62
The University of Idaho is receiving a bequest from the estates of W. L. and Clara Ziegler, as reported in the reference. Under terms of a partial Decree of Distribution, $70,525.10 has been received. The provisions of this bequest are as follows: (a) That all of said funds, monies so derived shall be placed in a fund entitled the “ZEIGLER EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION.” The funds comprising such foundation and the income and proceeds therefrom shall be used exclusively and solely for the granting of scholarships to students enrolled in the College of Mines at the University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho, for the furtherance of their education in mining and metallurgy, subject to the following conditions and qualifications: (i) That the students granted scholarships hereunder shall be bona-fide residents and citizens of the State of Idaho. (b) The Board of Regents shall exclusively determine what person or persons are worthy of such scholarships and may in their discretion as they elect, make outright grants of financial aid or may make loan grants upon the basis of repayment to this foundation as the Regents deem best under each individual circumstance and each individual case. (c) The Board of Regents of the University of Idaho shall limit the number of grants of scholarships hereunder to be made to five (5) such grants in any one academic year, PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that no more than fifteen (15) of such grants shall be in force and effect at any one given time. (d) Any scholarship granted hereunder to be retained by a student shall be upon the condition that that student continue to exhibit that academic ability and merit moral standard as were required in his initial qualifications to be the recipient of the grant in the first instance. (e) I further authorize and empower the Board of Regents to adopt such other rules and standards in the administration of this trust and in the grant of scholarships hereunder as they may deem advisable or necessary, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that said rules and regulations as adopted shall not be in minimization or derogation of those standards here created and shall further be consistent with the intent and purpose of the trust foundation as here created. (f) If for any reason the College of mines at the University of Idaho ceases to exist, then in such event the Board of Regents shall use said foundation funds and monies for the granting of scholarships in the College of Engineering at the University of Idaho subject to the same conditions and qualifications as herein set forth. Moved by Mrs. Hay, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that the above bequest be accepted under the terms specified, that future amounts received under this estate be accepted under the same terms, and that a trust fund be established to handle the proceeds from this bequest. |
6/13-15/73 | 62-63 |
| Optional Student Health and Accident Insurance | Re: Regents Minutes for July 6, 1972, pp. 36-37.
It is recommended that the current contract for Optional Health Insurance for students and dependents be extended for a one-year term at the following rates as quoted by the North Idaho Medical Service Bureau: Annual-Present Annual-Proposed Spring Semester-Present Spring Semester-Proposed The reference indicated that the possibility of changing this coverage and inviting bids by other insurers would be considered. However, the Health Service Advisory Committee wishes to defer such action because of the facts that (a) there seems to be general satisfaction with the present program, and (b) postponing action which might change this program will allow the new director of the Student Health Center to participate in related determinations. Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that extension of the current contract with the North Idaho Medical Service Bureau at the proposed rates be approved. |
6/13-15/73 | 63-64 |
| Vacancy Listing Services Fee | The University’s Career Planning and Placement Center would like to offer the service of a special mailing of position vacancies to alumni registered with the Center who wish to receive such a mailing. Recipients of this service will receive a weekly listing of position vacancies on which the Placement Center has information. A charge of $5.00 for a four-month period will be sufficient to cover the costs involved in providing the service, and is proposed. It is estimated that about 300 persons per year will wish to receive this service and that the service can be initiated about October 1, 1973.
Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that institution of the above mentioned service and fee be approved. |
6/13-15/73 | 64 |
| Medical Insurance Coverage for University Employees | Re: Regents’ Minutes for April 6, 1973, pages 103-104.
The University’s medical insurance program provides for paying 75% of the cost of coverage for full-time employees. They may purchase coverage for members of their immediate families. In accordance with the reference, insurance companies were invited to submit bids for this insurance. Bids were opened on May 22, 1973 and the New England Mutual Life Insurance Company, from whom the University has purchased this insurance since 1956, was the low bidder with monthly rate quotations as follows: single employee- $12.56: employee and spouse- $30.29; employee, spouse and children under age 19- $35.02; employee, spouse and children up to age 24- $37.45. The premium cost next year is expected to total about $365,000, which will be an increase of about $50,000 over the current annual cost. The possibility of reducing this cost or improving present coverage is being further investigated. This effort will most probably lead to changing the deductible provision in the insurance from $50 to $100 and possibly to increasing the maximum coverage beyond the current $25,000 maximum. Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the Bursar be authorized to conclude the above-described insurance contract with the New England Mutual Life Insurance Company and implement the required collections from University employees who wish to participate in this program. |
6/13-15/73 | 65 |
| Payments in Addition to Certified Salary | Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the following payments in addition to certified salary be approved.
1. Margaret Fosberg- for services during the national swim meet March 15, 16, and 17- $25.00 2. Carol Dahlberg- for accompaniment services for two graduate recitals April 29 and May 9, 1973- $100.00 3. Martin McGrane- for consulting work on the Lewiston Advertising Workshop, May 8- $50.00 4. Ralph Benke- for consulting work on Lewiston Seminars, May 8- $60.00 |
6/13-15/73 | 65 |
| Reimbursement for Travel with Camper or Trailer | A request has been received, as shown by Exhibit XI, that provisions be made to reimburse individuals who use campers or trailers, rather than rent rooms in motels and hotels in connection with official University travel. This provision may save the University money and approval to make such payments is recommended. To implement this proposal, approval is requested to add to Chapter IX, page 157 of the University’s Handbook of Policy and Procedure the following:
E. When specifically authorized in advance by a University official permitted to approve travel requests, an allowance of $8.00 per day will be paid to the driver of a vehicle equipped with a camper or towing a travel trailer in lieu of payments for lodging. It was moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Dr. Munson and carried that the item of “7.1 Reimbursement for Travel with Camper or Trailer” be tabled. Mr. Benoit voted no. A copy of Exhibit XI is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |
6/13-15/73 | 66 |
| Clarification of the Status of Recent Board Action | Section 232 of the Board’s Policy Manual for Higher Education Institutions states: “In the absence of special regulations to the contrary, Robert’s Rules of Order, newly revised, shall govern the course of all business and debate so far as it may be applicable to the procedures of the Board.”
The newly-revised edition of Robert’s Rules of Order (1970), pp. 291-292, provides that an action which conflicts with an unrepealed previous action is null and void. This provision in Robert’s has raised doubts as to the official status of some of the recently enacted Board policies related to personnel. Therefore, to assure that the most recent Board action supersedes any previous actions which may be in conflict, it is recommended that Section 232 of the Policy Manual be amended to read as follows (the added statement is underscored): 232. In the absence of special regulations to the contrary, Robert’s Rules of Order, newly revised, shall govern the course of all business and debate so far as it may be applied to the procedures of the Board, except that a Board action which conflicts with a previous action takes precedence and, in effect, amends (in part or in whole) the previous action. Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that Section 232 of the Board’s Policy Manual for Higher Education Institutions be amended as shown above. |
6/13-15/73 | 66-67 |
| Revised Campus Traffic and Parking Regulations | Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the revised campus traffic and parking regulations attached as Exhibit XII be approved, effective August 15, 1973. These regulations do not change in any substantive way the regulations which were approved last year by the Regents and which are now in effect. Revised regulations are necessary because of such things as changes in the campus map and certain parking lot designations. A copy of Exhibit XII is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 6/13-15/73 | 67 |
| Student Code of Conduct (Article VIII) | At the meeting of April 5-6, 1973, the Board confirmed all articles of the proposed Student Code of Conduct with the exception of Article VIII. The deferred article is quoted below:
Article VIII. Drugs and Alcohol The University does not condone or remain indifferent to any act or conduct which impairs the pursuit or dissemination of knowledge or which may be judged to have a deleterious effect upon the academic community. The primary role of the University in handling matters involving the use or potential use of drugs or alcohol by its students is that of counseling. The investigatory, prosecuting and disciplinary roles relating to illegal drug and alcohol use are the responsibility of law-enforcement authorities. However, jeopardizing the academic operation or interests of the University community through drug or alcohol use is a violation of this code. Sanctions that may be imposed by the judicial system for such a violation range from warning through expulsion (see Article XI), depending on the nature and extent of the offense. Sanctions already imposed by the civil process shall be taken into account when imposing university sanctions. The above article is again submitted for the Board’s confirmation. It is the sincere hope of the Faculty Council that if the Board cannot accept the article as presented, the matter will be returned to the University Faculty for further study, in keeping with the University Faculty’s responsibility for the establishment of rules and regulations governing the conduct of students. Moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the action of the University Faculty in establishing Article VIII of the Student Code of Conduct, as reported to the Board at the meeting of April 5-6, be denied. |
6/13-15/73 | 67-68 |
| Student Judicial System of the University of Idaho | At the meeting of April 17-18, 1969, the Board sustained the University Faculty’s action which established the Student Judicial System. With the Board’s adoption of the Statement of Student Rights, November 12, 1970, an appellate Committee of Review was established. This had the effect of modifying the Student Judicial System. Concurrent with the development of the new Code of Conduct, the University Faculty amended the Student Judicial System to bring it into conformity with the basic documents mentioned. The University Faculty’s responsibility for the establishment and maintenance of impartial hearing bodies to handle student disciplinary cases is set forth in Section IV. Paragraph 2, of the Statement of Student Rights. See enclosed Exhibit XIII for the revised Student Judicial System adopted by the University Faculty, March 7, 1973. A copy of Exhibit XIII is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 6/13-15/73 | 68 |
| Report of Sale of Bonds | Report is made of the sale of federal bonds, 3 ½% 11/15/80 held by the Infirmary Bond Sinking Fund.
*This transaction results in a net profit of $1,729.20 and allows reinvestment in shorter term maturities at a higher rate of interest. |

| Report on Contract to Purchase Laboratory Supplies | Historically, the University of Idaho has made one large annual purchase of chemicals, glassware and small laboratory equipment. The amounts of such purchases have been between about $30,000 and $60,000. The savings in purchasing large amounts over the cost of small orders, was significant. However, throughout the year as additional items were needed, small individual purchases had to be made at higher prices. This procedure also caused storage problems.
For the first time, this year, the University has executed a continuing contract for the purchase of such materials. The amount of the purchases under this contract next fiscal year will probably be between $75,000 and $150,000. The new arrangement will permit the University to place small orders throughout the year at the initial low price. For example, we may buy one case of glassware at the same cost as we would pay for the glassware if we were buying 150 cases at one time, saving 24% of what the one case order normally would be. We also expect to be able to get better, faster service under the new procedure, and to save about two weeks’ time on individual orders filled during the year, since we will not have to go through the bidding process on each of these, and we will also save mailing time in connection with the placing of orders. When our new procedures are fully implemented, orders will be placed electronically and shipped that same day. VWR Scientific of Seattle, Washington was the successful bidder on this new contract. We are hopeful that the annual savings to the University of Idaho made possible by this new purchasing procedure for securing laboratory supplies, chemicals and equipment will amount to between $20,000 and $40,000. Additional information concerning this matter is shown in Exhibit XV attached. A copy of Exhibit XV is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Financing of Furnishings and Equipment for College of Law Building | Re: Regents’ Minutes for April 1973, page 108
The above reference reported the situation regarding the furnishing and equipping of the new Law Building. As indicated therein, $300,000 was appropriated for this purpose. The Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council originally had recommended that $100,000 be provided, and apparently the Office of the Commissioner of Public Works programmed cash flow available for such purchases on the basis that only about $100,000 would be required to pay for this equipment and furnishings. The Council authorized the University to solicit bids, and they were requested from 70 firms; 42 of those responded with quotations. The bids would have now been evaluated and the cost of the furnishings which the University has requested authority to buy totals $237, 320.47. ($300,000 was appropriated and authorized) We do not feel that it will be possible to get any lower bids on items of similar quality and believe that the items selected constitute a very good buy. There is a need to order these items without delay, since it could take up to 120 days before items are actually installed in the building after they are ordered and because of the need to begin using the new building next fall semester. On June 1, 1973, the University requested permission of the Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council to place purchase orders for the aforementioned items at a total price of $237,320.47. As mentioned above, there seems to be somewhat of a financial problem, in that the Office of the Commissioner of Public Works may not have available sufficient funds to cover completely the needed expenditures if the items are ordered at this time. That office has asked whether or not it would be possible for the University to temporarily carry about $100,000 of the total purchase cost, with the understanding that this money would be repaid to the University by the Office of the Commissioner of Public Works about July 1, 1974. As explained when the request was made, the University does not have this money programmed either but would have to borrow it in some way. We would not like to have to do this. However, we would like even less being permitted to buy only part of the items now needed for the law building, and being required to go through the bidding and related process again next year for the remaining items. The items are needed at this time and if they are purchased next year, the price will undoubtedly be higher. Accordingly, authority is requested for the Bursar to work with the Office of the Commissioner of Public Works, and for the University to help with the financing of furnishings for the new law building up to about $100,000, if and as necessary, with the understanding that the Office of the Commissioner of Public Works of the State of Idaho will repay the University the amount so advanced, about July 1, 1974. Regents’ authority is further requested for the Bursar to borrow any such needed funds either from internal University sources or externally as is most economical and appropriate. Moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that the above recommendations be approved. |

| University Multi-Purpose Stadium | A cut-away drawing showing how the completed multi-purpose stadium will appear is at Exhibit XIX. The architect’s description of this stadium is attached at Exhibit XX. As indicated therein, “When completed the new Idaho Enclosed Stadium will accommodate not only football, soccer, indoor track, basketball, tennis, volleyball, but can be used for baseball practice, golf practice, wrestling, boxing, intramural sports, band and drill team practices and events, commencement and large audience events such as ‘rock’ concerts, circuses, carnivals, exhibits, road and trade shows, extra large catered banquets (would handle 8,000 persons), dances, rallies, conventions, etc. With use of new artificial ice surfaces, it will accommodate ice skating, hockey and ice follies, etc.”
The architect estimates that costs for completing the roof and other needed work on the stadium is increasing at the rate of about 12% per year. A fresh cost estimate indicates that about $2.5 million is now needed to complete the roof and related work. There are several reasons why this work should be expedited, in addition to the increases in costs already mentioned. Among these reasons is the fact that this additional work will permit the facility to be multi-purpose. There is a great need for such a facility in Moscow, particularly during bad weather, because of limited recreational facilities in this immediate area. Also, the present facility is far too valuable to be used only four or five times per year for football games, which is about all of the use which can be made of the facility in its present state of construction. It will now take about two years to get the roof and end-walls, etc. emplaced, assuming that financing can be arranged. About four months will be required for the architect and consultants to prepare “design/construct” construction and bidding documents. This will cost about $50,000. It will then take about two months to receive and evaluate bids, and about 18 months after that before the project can be completed. This time estimate is not exactly as shown in Exhibit XXI, which is a submission from the architect with related information, but is our current best estimate. By initiating required planning at this time, the enclosed stadium could be ready for use by the fall of 1975. Part of this planning involves the refining of cost estimates. With specific reference to the problem of financing, we now have about $300,000 invested and from this amount we are requesting authority at this time to contract with the architect for the preparation of “design/construct” construction and bidding documents, with the understanding that this cost will not exceed $50,000. This will still leave about $250,000 which should be more than enough to provide the undersurfacing below the roll-up turf, about which the students in the past have been particularly interested. As shown on page 62 of the minutes of the Regents’ meeting in January, 1972, it was agreed that student leaders would be consulted concerning plans for completing the stadium before expenditure of the above-mentioned $300,000 and that “Funds will be invested in an amount not to exceed $300,000 to be designated as restricted for the purchase of multi-use undersurfacing for the stadium. Prior to the expenditure of any of these funds, ASUI will be consulted.” ASUI leaders have been consulted regarding this situation. Because they are presently not on campus, members of the ASUI Senate were telephoned by the ASUI President. There is agreement that planning should proceed as described above. To save time and money, it is advisable to begin immediately to complete the architectural planning for further development of the stadium. Since funds are available to do this planning without expending funds now earmarked for the multi-use undersurfacing planned in the stadium (which the architect now estimates will cost about $244,200, authority to proceed with this planning is now requested. Moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Deaton and carried that the Bursar be authorized to sign contracts to expend up to $50,000 to complete “design/construct” documents for the roof, end-walls, and related work for the multi-purpose stadium, as explained above and in Exhibit XXI, with the understanding that, upon the completion of such documents, proposals for financing and completing the stadium will then be reviewed with student leaders and with the Regents prior to proceeding with that development. Authority for the University to initiate a fund-raising campaign to generate donations for the completion of the stadium is also granted, if and when the University President considers it advisable to initiate a fund-raising campaign to generate donations for the completion of the stadium is also granted, if and when the University President considers it advisable to initiate such a campaign.

| Contract Approvals | On June 5, 1973, bids were opened on four plant outlay projects at the University: (1) masonry repair on the Life Sciences and Administration Buildings, (2) construction of a portion of Stadium Road to serve the new Law Building and Performing Arts Center, (3) demolition of the old Veterinary Sciences Building, and (4) demolition of the old Entomology Research Building. As shown by the analysis and summary of bids for the four projects, attached as Exhibit XXII, a total of $129,300 was budgeted for this work and the low bids received total $120,086. Because of problems of timing, contracts to complete this work were signed.
Approval to take this action for projects (2), (3), and (4) was obtained, as shown on pages 88 and 104 of the minutes for the Regents’ meeting on April 6, 1973. Ratification of the contract for masonry repairs, project number 1, is requested. Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the contract mentioned above for masonry repairs on the Life Sciences and Administration Buildings at the University in the amount of $29,100 with the Pioneer Masonry Restoration Company of Seattle, Washington, be approved. A copy of Exhibit XXII is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Application to Receive Land in Bayview | About 0.22 acres of unimproved land in Bayview, Kootenai County, Idaho, has been declared surplus by the federal government. The College of Forestry and Department of Entomology have indicated that they could make use of this site to support aquatic research, and other research involving biological control of weeds and insects, and forest pest management. Acquiring this site will involve no foreseeable costs, but may make possible some savings. The Administration’s desire to request that the title of this land be transferred to the University was discussed with the Regents’ Executive Committee for the University of 22 June 1973. That committee concurred in action to seek to obtain the property. The plan was then to clear this matter with all members of the Board of Regents by means of a circular letter. However, because of problems of timing, it was not possible to do this – the application for the property had to be submitted by early July. In view of the aforementioned factors, and in view of the fact that if the Regents so desired, the application could be withdrawn, on 26 June the Financial Vice President, as Treasurer for the Board of Regents, submitted a formal application for the Regents to receive title to this property. Additional information concerning the property is attached as Exhibit 6.
A copy of exhibit 6 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. It was moved by Dr.Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the aforementioned action to apply for title to the above-mentioned land be ratified. |

| Renovation of Old Law College Area for Computer Center | There is a critical need for new computer facilities with additional space because with present equipment and facilities there is –
a. Overcrowding of personnel, resulting in poor working conditions, with no privacy for programmers and systems analysts, etc. Studies have been made to determine how to most economically and efficiently solve the problem of providing adequate space for the Computer Center. These studies have concluded that the area in the Administration Building now being vacated by the College of Law can be made to adequately accommodate the Computer Center. The cost for renovating this area into a suitable Computer Center totals about one-half of what the cost would be to construct a new Computing Center facility. Requests have been submitted for funding from the Permanent Building Fund in the amount of $440,000 for fiscal year 1975 for a complete renovation of the old Law College area for the Computer Center; however, since the College of Law will be moving out of the area about October of this year, and in view of the increasingly critical space problem, with continually increasing computer usage, it is imperative that parts of the Computer Center be moved into the new area this fall, if there is any possible way to permit such a move. The empty space will be available, and, in addition to the problems with the present facilities listed above, there are additional problems stemming from the fact that present offices for Computer Center personnel are disbursed in various areas and in various buildings, and there is a need to consolidate these personnel for increased efficiency. Through careful studies with an architect and the Computer Center staff, two particularly critical space needs have been isolated. They may be undertaken as special projects, to help relieve the overall problem. The cost estimate for completing one of these projects, providing a new room for the computer, totals $115,000, as shown by the detailed cost estimate attached as Exhibit 10. It must be emphasized that significant hazards are caused by the cramped conditions in the present machine room and the continually increasing usage of the computer. The lack of security control because of the present situation is mentioned above. The opportunities for significant operational problems and mistakes are increased greatly by the heavy use being made of these cramped facilities. The second project involves collecting the professional staff now disbursed in various locations into a new area within the area previously used by the College of Law. This will improve efficiency and provide programmers and analysts more privacy and much improved working conditions. The estimated cost for accomplishing this project is $55,000, as shown by the cost estimate attached as Exhibit 11. The total cost for the two projects is thus estimated to be about $170,000. If provisions can be made to undertake this work at this time, the $440,000 of funding requested in FY 1975 for the preparation of an adequate Computer Center may be reduced by $170,000. At the present time, the $170,000 requirement described above is not budgeted. However, one way to take care of the bulk of the financing for the above requirement has now developed through Bankhead-Jones funds which have just, unexpectedly, been received from the federal government. A check for these funds for the University of Idaho is now being processed for deposit on July 2, 1973. The amount of this check is $156,575. The additional $13,425 to cover the estimated cost of $170,000 cited above can be obtained by reprogramming funds currently budgeted for other University projects, which are also important, but are less important than this need. Bankhead-Jones funds must be spent at the University of Idaho for certain specific instructional programs. These funds may not be used elsewhere or for research, extension activities or plant outlay projects. However, the $156,575 may be used to cover specific instructional costs which would otherwise have been covered in other ways, thus releasing that amount of budgeted funds for use toward covering the $170,000 requirement. In this connection, attention is called to the fact that the Regents released $157,000 from their contingency funds for FY 1973 to cover the financial shortage caused by the fact that Bankhead-Jones funds, which were budgeted to be received by the University, were not received in time to be used in FY 1973. The Regents’ action on this matter is shown on pages 9 and 10 of Regents’ Minutes for March, 1973. Jones funds for FY 1973 were received by the University of Idaho, that appropriate allotment adjustments would be made. However, in view of the date of the release of the Bankhead-Jones funds, it is now requested that the University be permitted to use the $156,575, as described above, to solve the emergency condition previously explained. Concerning the overall, increasingly critical computer situation at the University, the computer is used in connection with the teaching of about 104 courses at the University of Idaho in such colleges as Engineering, Forestry, Mining, and Agriculture. About one-third of the students now graduating from the University are involved with the computer academically during the course of their programs here at the University—the education of engineering students is said to now involve is the number one priority of the College of Engineering. The University is increasingly dependent upon the computer for maintaining student and other records and processing accounting and other administration. It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that ( a) the University be permitted to make use of Bankhead-Jones funds in the amount of $156,575 to fund specific instructional programs at the University of Idaho for which those funds were provided by the federal government, simultaneously, reprogramming the funds previously budgeted to cover such programs, and other projects as necessary to provide funds for preparing a new machine room for the University’s computer, and space for the professional staff of the Computer Center, as described above, and (b) the Bursar be authorized to take necessary actions to receive bids and to accept the lowest responsive bids to accomplish this work.

| Purchase and Sale of Computer | This is to obtain authority to sell the IBM 360/40 central processing unit now being bought by the University and to buy computing equipment with more capacity. Purchasing, rather than renting or leasing the needed equipment, will be most economical, as shown by the comparative cost estimate attached as Exhibit 12. The new hardware should accommodate the University’s needs for five years, and any time after three years, the University should have no special problem in selling this equipment for more than the balance which the University will then owe on it.
At the end of this fiscal year, the University will still owe $15,933.60 on the IBM 360/40 central processing unit which is now being purchased. As yet, it is not possible to determine exactly how much money we can get for this equipment when we sell it, because of such factors as the fact that we do not yet know for certain when we will be able to release this equipment. However, we might be able to get as much as $80,000 from this sale. (If we do not sell this equipment to an educational institution, we will have to rebate to IBM $20,311 of the amount we get for the equipment, to cover an educational discount which we were allowed.) In any event, in payments made we have saved perhaps $75,000 by buying, rather than leasing, and we are confident that we can now sell this equipment for more than we owe on it. We plan to use these savings to help cover financial requirements of the computer center. We propose that the time schedule shown below be followed. This schedule is very tight, with little room for slippage, since up to fourteen months could be required to get delivery of computer equipment to be purchased after it is ordered. July 1973- University prepares detailed bid specifications August 1, 1973- University invites vendors to submit bids October 1, 1973- Bids opened October 2, 1973- November 14, 1973 University evaluates bids November 15, 1973- Vendor announced and purchase orders signed July 1974- New system delivered—a new computer machine room must be completed before new equipment can be received. Regents’ authority to do this work has been requested. Funding for new computing hardware, with related operating funds, has a high priority in the University’s budget request for next fiscal year. Tentative arrangements have been made for each of the past two years to lease or buy new computing equipment, only to be cancelled as the University’s actual financial situation became apparent. Further postponements of the acquisition of computer hardware with increased capacity is not possible, without grave harm being done to the University. As previously reported to the Regents, the University’s present computing capability is saturated and unable to accommodate various academic needs. Additional information concerning the computer situation at the University is presented in Item 5.12 with these agenda materials and in the Preliminary Five-year Plan attached as Exhibit 13. (Limited distribution) The new Director of the Computer Center at the University has been consulted concerning these proposals and he concurs with them. He is not scheduled to report for work until about July 19, 1973, and after he does arrive, we may wish to make some further refinements in specifications for the equipment upon which bids will be requested. However, regardless of any such changes, the University should be able to buy the computing equipment it needs for about $1.3 million. The University’s needs for this equipment being requested, and our desire to purchase the equipment, have also been discussed with Mr. Hal Turner, Assistant to the Director of Administrative Services in the State’s Department of Administrative Services. He supports these proposals. We cannot afford to delay any longer the start of the process to acquire needed computing equipment, in view of leadtime requirements and the University’s needs, which have been explained. Accordingly, commitments must now be made and actions must now be taken, with the understanding that, one way or another, provisions will be made to cover this requirement in the operating budget next fiscal year. It was moved by Dr. Munson, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that (a) the University be authorized to solicit bids for computer hardware similar to the equipment listed in Exhibit 13, evaluate bids, and select the specific bids, which will, at a cost of no more than $1.3 million, in the opinion of the Director of the University’s Computer Center, most properly and economically fulfill the University’s computing need, and that (b) the Bursar be authorized (1) to sign contracts to purchase such computing equipment, and arrange necessary financing internally or externally to repay the purchase price over a period of not more than eight years, with annual payments for equipment of no more than $250,000, and (2) to sell the IBM 360/40 central processing unit being bought by the University, when the new equipment becomes available. Timely reports concerning the status of actions taken under the authority given in this action are to be made to the Regents. A copy of Exhibit 12 and 13 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Palouse Empire Mall | It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that approvals for the Bursar to sign a Master Ground Lease with E.D. McCarthy, Inc. (to lease to him about 40 acres of land owned by the University), and for the Bursar to sign an Agreement Terminating Employment Agreement with E.D. McCarthy, are hereby ratified. The Bursar’s authority to sign contracts to expend up to $300,000 of nonappropriated funds to improve the aforementioned 40-acre plot, by providing for such things as drainage and other basic improvements to facilitate its development as a shopping center, in accordance with previous understandings and commitments, and as provided for in the aforementioned Master Ground Lease, is also ratified. Executed copies of the Master Ground Lease and Agreement Terminating Employment Agreement will be filed in the Office of Higher Education.

1. Dr. Joel Hamilton, from funds from WSU, for participation in a research project on an overload basis- $1,500 |
7/16-19/73 | 64-65 |
| Moving Expense | It was moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Alford, and carried that the University be authorized to pay 75% of the cost of actual moving expenses incurred by Victor P. Eroschenko for his move from Sacramento, California to Moscow, Idaho, with the understanding that the cost to the University is expected to total about $375.00. | 7/16-19/73 | 65 |
| Use of Land-Grant Endowment Funds | As previously reported to the Regents, the land-grant endowment received by the University last fiscal year was greater than what we were told that this income would be, and such funds carried forward for expenditure in the current fiscal year amount to $75,000. This money is needed to cover urgent needs as follows:
Proposed Allocation *This expenditure provides for a continuation of another phase of the renovation of the old law college area as discussed in Item 5.12 with these agenda materials. That item concerns the provision of a computer machine room and space for computer staff personnel. This $21,000 is proposed for allocation against the $25,000 requirement enumerated on Exhibit 14. That exhibit is a cost estimate for preparation of an area to be used by the Director of the Computer Center, in accordance with architectural plans which have been developed. It was moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that approval be given to utilize land-grant endowment funds as proposed above, and that the Bursar be authorized to call for bids and accept the lowest responsive bids for a partial renovation of the new area for the computer center as described above, with the understanding that if the low bids for this work exceed the $21,000 cited above, that the excess cost may be covered by reprogramming within the budget for plant outlay projects. A copy of Exhibit 14 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |
7/16-19/73 | 65-66 |

Motion lost by vote of three to four. Mr. Engelking, Dr. Munson, Mrs. Hay, and Mr. Deaton voted no. Mr. Thatcher, Mr. Alford, and Mr. Benoit voted yes. It was moved by Mr. Alford and seconded by Mr. Benoit that the Board of Regents of the University of Idaho direct the University of Idaho to serve notice of intent to leave the Big Sky Conference on July 15, 1974, and to then assume “independent status,” in order to allow retention of the school’s traditional university (Division I) classification in the NCAA; that the Board further direct the University, between now and July 5, 1974, to adhere to Big Sky Conference scholarship aid regulations; that the Board at that time re-study athletic scholarship levels at all three major state institutions; and that the Board further direct that all contracts between Idaho, Idaho State, and Boise State College for football games be honored unless otherwise directed by the Board. Motion lost by vote of three to four. Mr. Engelking, Dr. Munson, Mrs. Hay, and Mr. Deaton voted no. Mr. Thatcher, Mr. Alford, and Mr. Benoit voted yes. |
7/16-19/73 | 66-67 |
| Student Code of Conduct | Article VIII. Drugs and Alcohol under the “Student Code of Conduct” was held at the April, 1973, board meeting.
It was moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mrs. Hay and carried that Article VIII, Drugs and Alcohol be amended by the addition underlined: Article VIII. Drugs and Alcohol. The university does not condone or remain indifferent to any act or conduct which impairs the pursuit or dissemination of knowledge or which may be judged to have a deleterious effect upon the academic community. The primary role of the university in handling matters involving the use or potential use of drugs or alcohol by its students is that of counseling. The investigatory, prosecuting and disciplinary roles relating to illegal drug and alcohol use are the responsibility of law enforcement authorities. However, jeopardizing the academic operation or interests of the university community through drug or alcohol use is a violation of this code. Furthermore, at the meeting of 14 June 1973 the State Board of Education and Board of Regents of the University of Idaho reaffirmed the board’s opposition to possession and consumption of alcoholic beverages by students on the campuses of Idaho state institutions of higher education. Sanctions that may be imposed by the judicial system for such a violation range from warning through expulsion (see article XI), depending on the nature and extent of the offense. Sanctions already imposed by the civil process shall be taken into account when imposing university sanctions. Notion carried with a vote of five to two. Mr. Thatcher and Mr. Deaton voted no. |

| Student Exchange Agreement with Oregon State University | President Robert MacVicar of Oregon State University has proposed that undergraduate students at the University of Idaho who wish to major in the field of food science and technology at Oregon State University be permitted to enroll in that program without payment of out-of-stat fees and undergraduate students from Oregon State University who wish to major in the field of mining engineering and geological engineering at the University of Idaho be permitted to enroll in these programs without paying out-of-state tuition. This arrangement is recommended, since students from Oregon State University can be absorbed into courses offered here without causing any measurable increase in costs, and since this arrangement will expand opportunities for, and result in lower charges made to, Idaho students.
Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the President of the University of Idaho be authorized (a) to continue investigation of the desirability of concluding an agreement with Oregon State University similar to the one attached at Exhibit 4, and (b) to sign such an agreement if he concludes that it is advantageous to do so. A copy of Exhibit 4 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. |

| Registration Fee for Participants in a Continuing Education Program | The U.S. Forest Service is paying the total cost, including instructional cost and institutional overhead, for a course of instruction for a group of practicing professional foresters. This instruction will be given on campus at the University of Idaho from October 1 to November 1, 1973. Agreements made in connection with the establishment of this program provided for students in the program not to be charged regular fees, but for students in the program who wish to receive university credit for completing this instruction each to be charged a special fee of $50 to cover administrative costs. Related information is attached as Exhibit 12. A copy of Exhibit 12 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 59 |
| Waiver of Fees for Persons 65 Years of Age and Older | Initiation of a Senior Scholars program has been suggested to begin next semester. Under this program, certain persons would be permitted to enroll in resident courses, on a space available basis, without the payment of regular student fees. Special lab or materials or course costs would be assessed, if such charges are made to students who take the courses concerned. Persons in the program would not be eligible for services and activities made available to fee-paying students, such as insurance, student health services, ASUI membership, and free admission to athletic events.
This program should not result in any increase in measurable cost to the University. Provisions can be made for participants in this program to register after regular registration. This way they may be permitted to enroll in classes which are scheduled to be conducted and which have not been completely filled. It is also proposed that each participant in the program (a) furnish evidence of his or her age to the Director of Admissions before entering this program, (b) be charged the standard registration fee, now $20 per semester, to cover costs of related administration and academic counseling, and (c) not be restricted as to the number of credit hours in which he or she may enroll. Very few persons are expected to participate in this program, and adoption of it on a trial basis is recommended. Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the President of the University of Idaho be permitted to initiate or discontinue a “Senior Scholars” program, substantially as outlined above, as he determines to be advisable. |

| Redesignation of Use to be Made of $3 of the Uniform Student Fee | An explanation of the use made of the $190 uniform student fee is attached at Exhibit 13. Three dollars of the $91.50 cited on the exhibit to be used for buildings was initiated in September 1966 for capital improvements in the Student Union Building. Later, with Regents’ approval, this $3 was used toward the cost of golf course expansion and to help cover the cost of a golf course driving range. Those costs have now been paid off and the ASUI Senate has requested that henceforth the $3 be used as follows: (a) $1.50 to be used toward the operating costs of the Student Union Building. With rising costs, this increase is needed to balance the budget for the SUB, and without the increase it would be necessary to increase other charges or to decrease services. (b) $1.50 to be earmarked specifically for capital expenditures specified by the ASUI Senate, e.g. equipment or remodeling projects. It is proposed that the Business Office keep this reserve invested in short-term investments and that such investment earnings be added to this reserve. Standard Regents’ approval will be secured prior to making expenditures from this reserve. Use of the $3 fee in this way is recommended. A copy of Exhibit 13 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit.
Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Dr. Munson, and carried that the above recommendation be approved. |

| Closing of Bank Accounts | Re: Regents’ Minutes for July 1972, page 48 and Exhibit 12 with those Minutes.
The above reference presents approved Regents’ policy governing certain financial procedures at the University of Idaho. Such policy permits the Financial Vice President to establish such bank accounts as he determines to be necessary to transact the University’s business and specifies that any new account which is opened or any existing account which is closed will be reported to the Regents along with a brief explanation of the reasons for such action, either before the action is taken, or at the next Regents’ meeting following the action. The bank accounts listed below were closed as of August 31, 1973 to improve financial administration in conformance with audit recommendations. With present procedures, these specific bank accounts are unnecessary, and eliminating them will (a) free money which would otherwise be tied up in compensating balances, (b) permit the immediate use of cash within the University’s principal operating accounts which was formerly remitted to these accounts on a monthly basis, and (c) reduce the requirements for financial accounting at Branch Stations.

| Report on Rental Increase for Bookstore | The University Bookstore adjoins the Student Union Building and for the past eight years the Bookstore has paid the Student Union an annual rental of $20,000 per year. During this time there has been no increase in this rent. The rent goes into the general operating budget for the Student Union and helps to cover the cost of such things as custodial service and building upkeep for the Student Union Building. The Student Union has now turned over additional storage area to the Bookstore, and the General Manager of the Student Union and the Manager of the University Bookstore have agreed that the annual rental charge should be increased to $25,000. This increase was approved by the Financial Vice President, effective July 1, 1973. | 10/11-12/73 | 62-63 |
| Submission of Audit Report | Submitted herewith as Exhibit 14 is a report from Price Waterhouse and Co.- Recommendations for Improving Internal Accounting Controls in Administrative Efficiency, dated May 31, 1973. A copy of Exhibit 14 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit.
In general, good progress is being made and no critical problem is cited in this report. It contains much less in the way of recommendations than have previous reports, partly because of actions taken to implement previous recommendations. The report does point out areas where further improvements are needed. Some previous recommendations have not yet been implemented because of funding shortages and for other reasons; however, we will continue to give special attention to each finding and either promptly implement each recommendation or be prepared to explain why this has not been done. The Financial Vice President will be available to report further to the Regents concerning any of the auditors’ specific findings and recommendations, or concerning actions taken or planned as a result of auditors’ reports, as Regents may desire. |

| Handling Grant Funds for Research Abroad | The National Science Foundation has granted $53,600 to the University of Idaho for support of the project entitled “Ecology of the Leopard” under the direction of Dr. Maurice G. Hornocker. This grant was accepted at the April 5 and 6, 1973 Regents’ meeting, and is for the period March 1973 through August 1975. The awarding foundation has approved advancing $10,000 of this amount for equipment including a Toyota Land Cruiser and field expenses through a local bank in South Africa. The vehicle, at the termination of the research, is to be sold and the funds used for other aspects of the approved project. Dr. Theodore N. Bailey, on location, will provide the Controller’s Office with expenditure reports and invoices paid from this and additional periodic advances.
On the basis for the above-mentioned authorization from the National Science Foundation, and since this action seemed necessary to expedite completion of the research for which the grant was made, we have advanced the $10,000 though Volkskas Limited, a registered commercial bank in South Africa, for the uses outlined above. This matter is being reported to the Regents since this is not a standard procedure for handling funds. |
10/11-12/73 | 63 |
| Distribution of Annual Report on the Consolidated Investment Trust | Record is made of the fact that copies of the above report for the year ending June 30, 1973 were sent to the Regents, the Office of Higher Education, and the University of Idaho Foundation, Inc. about September 18, 1973. Persons who wish to receive copies of this report or additional information about it should contact the Financial Vice President of the University of Idaho. A copy of the “Consolidated Investment Trust, Annual Report for the Year Ending June 30, 1973” is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 64 |
| Study of the Feasibility of Establishing a Program in Veterinary Science | The possibility of the University of Idaho participating in a veterinary science program with Oregon State University has been discussed with the Regents. A rough, preliminary cost estimate showing what the costs might be in such a program is attached as Exhibit 15. Since the preparation of that paper, there has been further consideration of the possibility of establishing such a program, and it now appears that Oregon State University, Washington State University and the University of Idaho might all participate in such a program. A copy of Exhibit 15 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit.
Incurring some unbudgeted cost to help determine the feasibility of this joint program seems advisable. This study effort will involve some travel, possibly payments to consultants, and is expected to result in determinations of the requirements for, and possibilities of, accreditation of such a program, and a refinement of the aforementioned cost estimate. Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Deaton, and carried that the University of Idaho be authorized to study the feasibility of participating in a program of veterinary science, as explained above, with the understanding that if the costs to be incurred in this study effort exceed $5,000, the University will submit a request through this board for funds to be reimbursed for this cost. |
10/11-12/73 | 64 |
| Acceptance of Bids | Three bids were received on each of two budgeted projects, and because of the need to complete this work as soon as possible, contracts were signed with the low bidder for each project, as follows: (1) Re-roof Beef Barn No. 1, on campus, in the amount of $5,344, low bid submitted by Spokane Roofing, Inc., and (2) Air Conditioning at Joe Marshall Potato Research Center, Aberdeen, in the amount of $11,138, low bid submitted by Drake Plumbing and Heating. The bid on the beef barn was within the budgeted figure. The bid on the air conditioning exceeded the budgeted figure, but the Aberdeen Branch Experiment Station has submitted a requisition to cover the difference in the bid amount and the budgeted amount. | 10/11-12/73 | 64 |
| Change Orders | Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the following change orders be approved:
Project: Demolition of Old Entomology Bldg. Project: Masonry Repair, Ad. Bldg. & Life Sci. Bldg. Project: Performing Arts Center- Phase I |
10/11-12/73 | 65 |
| Acceptance of Contracts | Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the following contracts be accepted as complete:
Project: Demolition of Old Entomology Bldg. Project: Masonry Repair, Ad. Bldg. & Life Sci. Bldg. |
10/11-12/73 | 65 |
| Extension of Agreement with Union Pacific Railroad Company | Since 1964, the University of Idaho has made use of a strip of land immediately adjacent to the campus, between Line and Rayburn Streets which belongs to the Union Pacific Railroad Company. Grass has been planted in the area and it is maintained and used by the University. We have now signed a continuation of the rental agreement with the railroad company to provide for the continued use of this land by the University. The agreement provides that for the payment of $25, the University may make use of this land through January 31, 1979.
It was moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Thatcher and carried that the Regents approve the “Extension Agreement with the Union Pacific Railroad Company.” |
10/11-12/73 | 66 |
| Change in Procedure for Approving Personnel Actions | In a Regents’ meeting in July, the need for the University continually to submit circular letters on personnel actions was discussed briefly. As pointed out at that time, present procedure requires Regents’ action any time any person is added to the payroll, or has a change in job title, salary rate, or department, or budget designation, or leaves the employment of the University, etc. This procedure dates back to the time when the University had only a few dozen employees and when the Regents could be and were much more involved in the internal management of the University than they can be at this time. There is a constant turnover of employees in janitorial and clerical and other positions, and such routine changes in budgeted positions should no longer require Regents’ approval of individual cases. Eliminating the need for such action, through approval of the following recommendations, will simplify and expedite administration.
Recommendations: 2.Position control procedures currently in effect at the University of Idaho be continued, except that, after proper financial verifications, the University of Idaho be continued, except that, after proper financial verifications, the University President, or his designated representative, may henceforth, without Regents’ authorization of specific cases, approve routine personnel actions not involving the creation of new positions or personnel to fill positions cited in the paragraph immediately above. Moved by Mr. Deaton, seconded by Mr. Benoit, and carried that the above two recommendations be approved. |
10/11-12/73 | 66 |
| Faculty Salary Guidelines for the 1974-75 Budget | In its July, 1973 meeting the Regents indicated adherence to the 5.5% guideline indicated in Phase IV economic controls. At the request of the University of Idaho’s Joint Administrative-Faculty Budget Hearing Board, a reconsideration of this action is requested. The basis for this request stems from the fact that the budget request is for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1974; whereas the Phase IV controls are announced to be ended in January, 1974. As a basis for discussion, material from the faculty Council Budget Liaison Committee, dated September 19, 1973, is appended as Exhibit 16 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 67 |
| Employment of Relatives | The appointment of Dr. Jean’ne Shreeve as Head of the Department of Chemistry is being recommended in another Regents’ action. This is to report that her husband, Dr. Merland W. Grieb, is a member of the Chemistry faculty. Dr. Grieb is prevented by statute from participating in the process of Dr. Shreeve’s selection and appointment. We have ascertained that he did not do so. Dr. Shreeve would be prohibited by Board policy from functioning as judge or advocate in specific situations involving members of her immediate family, or from initiating or participating in institutional decisions involving direct benefit (such as initial appointment, retention, promotion, salary, and leave of absence) to members of her family.
The Academic Vice President has established a procedure to handle recommendations and decisions relative to the professional status of Dr. Grieb. The Dean of the College of Letters and Science, in consultation with members of the faculty in Chemistry (excluding Dr. Shreeve), will be in charge of such procedures and recommendations. This arrangement is considered consistent with Regents’ Policy (Article 539, p. 44 of the Regents’ Policy Manual); and, therefore, no formal action is now requested. |
10/11-12/73 | 67 |
| Naming of New Wing of Agricultural Sciences Building | It was moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Dr. Munson and approved that the new wing of the Agricultural Sciences Building be named after the late Dean E. J. Iddings. | 10/11-12/73 | 67 |
| Report on Results of C.P.A. Examination | The Regents may like to know that an announcement by the Idaho State Department of Accountancy in August, 1973 indicates that in the State of Idaho seven people successfully passed all parts of the Uniform C.P.A. examination which was administered last May in their first sitting for this examination.
The seven were all from the University of Idaho – Dr. Bruce Budge of the Accounting Department and six of our May, 1973 graduating seniors. In addition, there were five other University of Idaho graduates who completed the examination at that time. Mr. John E. Sage, one of our graduating seniors, who completed the exam in his first sitting, tied for second place nationwide. Approximately 20,000 individuals took that examination. The Idaho State Board of Accountancy and the Idaho Society of Certified Public Accountants have sent special congratulations to Mr. Sage, who is now employed in Portland, Oregon. |
10/11-12/73 | 68 |
| Report on Incorporation of Alumni Association | The following information was received from the Alumni Secretary on July 26, 1973:
“This is to inform you that the University of Idaho Alumni Association has received a Certificate of Incorporation from the Secretary of State and the articles have been duly filed in Latah County.” “At the request of President Berry, I reaffirm to you our hope and intent that the new corporation will strengthen us in our sole purpose – that of greater support for the university.” “We request that you kindly inform the Board of Regents of our recent incorporation.” |

| Report of Change of Subject Signatures with B.S. Degrees in College of Forestry, Wildlife and Range Sciences | Re: Board Minutes of December 7-8, 1972, p. 38-39
In accordance with the Board’s permission for U.I. colleges to up-date the subject signatures with currently-authorized curricula leading to the B.S. degree, report is made of the fact that the College of Forestry, Wildlife and Range Sciences has dropped the words “in Forestry” from the name of the degree of bachelor of Science in Forestry and has substituted the specific name of each curriculum. Thus, beginning with the 1973-74 academic year, students who complete one of the four major curricula in the college will be awarded a B.S. degree carrying the specific subject signature of the curriculum completed: Bachelor of Science in Range Resources (B.S. Range Res.) |
10/11-12/73 | 68-69 |
| Submittal of ASUI Senate Resolution | The President and Senate of the Associated Students of the University of Idaho have requested that the resolution attached as Exhibit 17 be submitted to the Board of Regents.

| Report of Status of Women’s Intercollegiate Athletics | Dr. Edith Betts, Professor of Physical Education, is preparing a report on the status of Women’s Intercollegiate Athletics. This report should be ready for presentation at the December meeting of the Regents. The report has been delayed so that material coming from the November meeting of the AIAW (Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women) may be included in the report. | 10/11-12/73 | 69 |
| Personnel Action | It was moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mr. Engelking and carried that the following personnel recommendation be approved:
Jackson, M.L., change in rank from Research Professor and Acting Chairman to Research Professor, Acting Chairman and Acting Dean with a change in salary rate from $20,231 per year of 10 months to $26,600 per year of 12 months effective October 1, 1973.

| Personnel Recommendations | Moved by Mr. Alford, seconded by Mrs. Hay, and carried that the personnel recommendations shown in Exhibit 18 be approved. A copy of Exhibit 18 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 70 |
| Routine Course Changes | Moved by Mrs. Hay, seconded by Mr. Thatcher, and carried that the routine course changes reported in Exhibit 19, (General Curriculum Report #49), be approved. A copy of Exhibit 19 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 70 |
| Budget Transfers | Moved by Mr. Benoit, seconded by Mr. Engelking, and carried that the budget transfers, shown by Exhibit 20 and by Circular Letter 1973-74-07, be approved. A copy of Exhibit 20 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit. | 10/11-12/73 | 70 |
| Budget Requests for Next Fiscal Year | Item 4.13 and Exhibit 7 of the regular agenda show summaries of the budget requests which were submitted for next fiscal year. These requests have now been recomputed in accordance with instructions from the Office of Higher Education, dated 28 September, based on the assumption that full-time University employees will receive a 5% pay raise effective January 1, 1974, thus increasing the salary base upon which the 5.5% pay raise requested to become effective on July 1, 1974 is computed. Summary sheets showing the new budget requests which are now being submitted to the Office of Higher Education for the appropriations General Education, Cooperative Extension and Agricultural Research are attached as Exhibits 21, 22, and 23. The requests for appropriations for Short Term Applied Research and Forest Utilization Research are not being changed. A copy of Exhibits 21, 22, and 23 are on file in the Office of Higher Education as permanent exhibits. | 10/11-12/73 | 71 |
| Change in Allotment Request-Land Grant Endowment | Report is made of the following changes in allotment which have been submitted to the Division of the Budget.
These particular allotment requests were submitted because we are unable to get reliable estimates of just what land-grant endowment income will actually be available to be received. If allotment requests which we submit are not large enough to cover land-grant endowment income available for receipt by the University, this income is not passed to the University until after the submission of additional paperwork. These increased allotment requests will help to expedite the receipt of funds, to eliminate unnecessary paperwork, and to assure that income flow to the University is not delayed pending the preparation and processing of allotment requests. This action is merely to expedite the paperwork flow and does not increase any budget. |

| Purchase of Computer Hardware | Re: Regents’ Minutes for July, 1973, Pages 62 through 64.
The above reference authorized the University to solicit bids for computer hardware, to select a specific vendor, and to sign a contract with that vendor. During a Regents’ meeting on September 7, 1973, a report was made on the status of related actions. At that time the Regents concurred with the action which had been taken and with plans to sign a binding contract, rather than a letter of intent, about November 15, 1973, with the vendor who is selected. As explained to the Regents, it seemed necessary to be proud in accordance with the previously established time schedule, to assure completion of any required software conversions and the training of University Computer Center personnel, so that new computer hardware could be received and be operational next summer. The Regents reaffirmed approval of the Administration’s time schedule and reconfirmed the authority given to the Administration as cited above. The Regents were told that the Administration would again report in October regarding actions being taken to purchase new computer hardware. Bids for this hardware were opened on 1 October. Six computer vending companies had asked for and been given information which they needed in order to submit bids. However, bids were actually received from only three companies, as follows: Control Data- $1,716,795.00 Since the Regents authorized the purchase of new computer hardware at a cost of no more than $1.3 million, only the bids from Xerox and IBM qualify for detailed evaluation. IBM representatives are scheduled to be on campus for an oral presentation on 15 October, and Xerox representatives are scheduled to be here on 25 October. It would be possible to sign a contract with either Xerox or IBM, depending upon which company is selected by the Director of the University’s Computer Center as having submitted the proposal which most properly and economically fulfills the University’s computing needs. Evaluations should be completed, and the vendor should be selected, and the contract to buy the hardware should be signed, about November 15, 1973. Further Regents’ approval is not required. |

| The Engineer’s Fund | Re: Regents’ Minutes, October 20, 1972, pages 68-69.
The above-noted reference reported that foreclosure proceedings were being initiated on a defaulted conditional sales contract in California. This contract was received as part of a gift to establish an endowed scholarship, which was named the “Engineers’ Fund.” The contract balance was $30,435.29 on 31 July 1972. We have now received a check for $30,809.94 (after legal expenses) as proceeds of this foreclosure action. Legal action is being continued to attempt to recoup about $2,900 of legal costs. Our California attorney in this case has instituted a declaration action in the Superior Court of the State of California for such costs, and if and when this payment is obtained, it will be added to the principal of this trust account. |
10/11-12/73 | 73 |

10/11-12/73 | 74 |
| Closure of Bank Account | Settlement of legal action in California as reported in this agenda under 4.33, The Engineers’ Fund, makes a bank collection account there no longer necessary. Accordingly, Account No. 1-006010143, University of Idaho Engineers’ Fund at The Bank of California, Martinez Office, was closed, effective October 5, 1973. | 10/11-12/73 | 74 |
| Renaming of University Buildings | The name of certain buildings on the campus should be changed because the functions performed in the buildings have been changed, and for other reasons. The name changes should be made at this time, because campus maps and building signs are about to be prepared. These changes, shown below, have been proposed by the University Relations Coordinating Council, approved by the Administrative Council, and are recommended:
1. Faculty Office Building & Graduate Center to Faculty Office Complex Moved by Mr. Thatcher, seconded by Mr. Deaton, and carried that the buildings listed above be renamed as proposed. |
10/11-12/73 | 75 |

A copy of Exhibit 25 is on file in the Office of Higher Education as a permanent exhibit.
“1. Contingent upon receipt of (additional) federal or state monies…by January 1974, the following persons should be reinstated, effective January 1, 1974, at a rank, status, and salary comparable to that which they held at the time they were notified if the termination of their services: Floyd Gephart, Fred H. Gilbert, Gene P. Carpenter, John J. Kolar, Norman D. Waters “2. In recognition of the fact that the restoration of federal funds does not compensate for the decline in the rate of increase of state funding since 1971, the University present to the Board of Regents at its June, 1974 meeting a plan for the budgeting of operations, in fiscal year 1975-76, of the Agricultural Experiment Station and the Cooperative Extension Service. Such a plan would include, but would not be limited to, an analysis of the effect of federal and state appropriations for fiscal year 1974-75 on the potential operating level in 1975-76 of the Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service.” |

| Assignment of Rooms in Wallace Complex | Report is made of the fact that one floor of the Wallace Complex has been assigned as a “singles” floor with the normal occupancy of the floor reduced by one-half. This action was taken because of an unprecedented number of requests for single room accommodations. Eleven women and sixteen men have been assigned to the suites on this floor, and it is staffed with a woman resident assistant. | 10/11-12/73 | 76 |
| Submission of ASUI Senate Resolution | Mr. Carl Wuster, ASUI President, has asked that senate resolution No. 11, of September 25, 1973, attached as Exhibit 26, be submitted to the Regents.
