Dr. Pearson delivered the banquet address, taking as his topic "The Outlook for Higher Education in the Next Decade." Relating specifically to the theme of the conference, said Dr. Pearson, "While scrutinizing the manpower question, we should also take a careful look at the instructional employment of women in higher education. We all know that women are splendid teachers in elementary and high schools. We have excellent women teachers in universities. Why should their 'fine instruction not be more often utilized beyond the high school? More and more of our women students at the University of Miami are working for Master’s and Doctor’s degrees, as they are at other institutions all over the, United States. More and more women can be and should be given instructional employment in higher education." CAR POOL LEASING RULES SET Rules for leasing vehicles from the UM car pool were explained to Administrative Council Jan.1G by Dr. Johns, as follows: 1, vehicles leased on a one-year basis are subject to a review by the Budget Committee and subject to the availability of funds in existing budgets; 2, vehicles leased on a consecutive monthly basis will require approval of the executive vice president; 3, vehicles leased for more than one week are to be turned in each week*s end to the car pool for servicing and maintenance.
