President Speaks To Faculty Senate
President Stanford addressed the Faculty Senate at its November 19 meeting and informed them that the Florida Student Assistant Grant program for 1974-75 has been allotted $6.8 million.
Dr. Eugene Flipse spoke to the Senate, requesting that any faculty member having a problem with medical insurance talk to him about it and the Fringe Benefits Committee would try to work something out.
In Senate action, passed as Class D resolution was the Council’s recommendation that as many as possible firm and contingency summer session contracts be issued as early as possible and that the base salary budget for last year be the same for this year.
Adopted as Class B and C actions were:
Policy on CLEP and Other External Examinations (73021)
Designation of the Division of Continuing Education and the Establishment of an Associate of Arts Degree (73023)
Faculty Appointments, Promotions & Tenure-School of Nursing (73027)
Tuition Benefits (73026)
These actions go to the President for approval. For copies of this legislation, contact the Senate secretary, Susan Merriman at 284-3721.
Chairman Named In Communications
Dr. Josephine Johnson, acting chairman of the department of communications since February, 1973, has been named chairman. Announcement was made by Dr. Robert W. Hively, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.
Since joining the UM in 1966, Dr. Johnson has initiated and directed the prize-winning UM Chamber Theatre and has worked with communication services in producing four video tapes which are used as instructional aids in English, speech and drama classes throughout the United States. She was also coordinator of the speech and drama programs sponsored by the Division of Musical Arts of the School of Music for three years.

Toys Collected For Needy Tots
A Toys for Tots drive is now underway in the lobby of Ashe Building. Donations of any kind of toys will be accepted; the toys will be distributed to underprivileged children in the community.
This program was initiated at UM last year by Gertrude Russell in the accounting office. The office-wide response was so great that they decided to open it up to the rest of the UM family this year. Last year, over 400 toys were collected. They were picked up by members of the Marine Corps Reserves and distributed to needy children at a Christmas party. This year’s toys will be given out the same way.
Gifts can be of any type and size, but should be unwrapped to enable them to be given to the right age child. Simply leave the toys at the tree in the Ashe Building lobby.
The drive will continue until the morning of December 21, when the Marines will collect them.
Pick Music Library. The plaque reads, “Arturo diFilippi Memorial Scholarship-In memory of Arturo diFilippi, Mus.D., 1894-1972—Professor of Voice at this University, 1939-1965. His spirit will live in the lives of the talented scholarship recipients. Dedicated November 27, 1973.”
Energy Conservation On Campus Under Study
President Stanford has directed the campus environment committee, chaired by Dr. Thomas D. Waite, civil engineering, and the safety committee, chaired by Orville Briscoe, director of insurance and safety, to make recommendations to the President as to actions the University could take in conserving fuels and electricity.
Suggestions from all persons in the University community are welcome and may be sent to Dr. Waite or Mr. Briscoe.
Dr. Stanford noted that all constituencies of the University are represented on the two committees.
Check Your Address
Tax return time is drawing near— again—and the Payroll Office needs to have all address corrections by December 14 in order to mail out the tax forms. Check the front of your pay check, and if it’s wrong, or if you’ve moved recently, call the Payroll Office at 284-3664 to make the correction.
Mid-session Added For This Summer
The Summer of ’74 will see the University operating on a new type of Summer school schedule, which includes a mid-session as well as the regular first and second summer sessions.
The two regular sessions, beginning May 29 and July 9, each will be five and one-half weeks long, as before, according to Registrar George Smith. However, overlapping the first summer session will be a three-week-long mid-session, beginning June 17 and ending the same time as the first session, July 3.
The short session is being offered primarily to accommodate teachers and others who are on a standard semester system and won’t be available for classes until about the middle of June. For these people, the first summer session will be too early, explained Mr. Smith, and the second session could interfere with then-summer employment or vacation plans.
“Although the mid-session is a special requirement for this summer, primarily for school teachers, current trends around the country in summer sessions reflect growing interest in shorter and more concentrated programs, seminars and mini-sessions,” said Dean M. Robert Allen, director of summer sessions. “This summer’s program will be evaluated in the planning of future summer sessions.”
Double periods during the mid-session will insure the students of the same amount of instructional time as they would get during a regular summer session. Course offering for the mid-session will be primarily education-oriented, but other courses will be added if the demand is sufficient.
United Fund Drive Falls Short of Goal
UM has reached 91 percent of its 1973 United Fund goal, with total contributions of $82,781, according to a report issued November 27 by Robert Fuerst, assistant dean of faculties.
This figure is slightly below the amount, $84,646, collected last year.
