Information for Guidance of University Desired by Faculty Group
WILL SEND INQUIRIES
The Board of Regents, in a meeting Saturday here at the University, adopted a resolution that no changes of department or higher learning in the state of Kansas be made without careful study of the need for such change, nor until the recommendation of the department committee and the head of the institution involved.

A committee should be devoted to the matter, he said, in trying to asassinate the total number of changes and the course in which they were made. As seen as the committee has a sufficient amount of data available, in a position to make a final report.
The other members of the committee are: Prof. F. P. OBrien, of the School of Education; Dean F. T. Stockton, of the School of Business; Prof. C. W. Woods, of the Engineering and Architecture and Prof. C. C. Crawford, of the department of history.
