press notices in the “Ledger” did not
appear until April 12th. The new plan,
as stated in the “Ledger” of May 20th, is:
“The faculty shall elect from among
the full professors and associate profes-
. sors, after their first term of appointment,
_ @ Committee of three who sliall hold office
for three years, except that the two mem-
bers, chosen at its first election, shall hold
office for two years and one year respec-
tively. Members of this committee shall
not be re-elected at the end of any three-
year term until after one year shall have
elapsed. This committee shall have the
right to attend and take part in the dis-
cussion at all meetings of the Board of
Directors unless by special request of the
board, but shall have no vote.
“The president shall consult this com-
mittee before making any recommenda-
tions to the board of directors on reap-
pointments or refusal of reappointments
of offices of instruction. In all such cases
the recommendations of this committee
and the vote taken shall be reported in
writing to the board of directors. Before
taking action the committee shall consult
with the departments concerned and with
the dean of the college. If the case of a
member of the committee is under con-
sideration the other members of the com-
mittee may appoint a substitute of like
rank to consider that particular case.
Whenever practicable this committee is
to be consulted as to initial appoint-
ments.
“Professors and associate professors ap-
pointed for indefinite terms shall be re-
moved only after a conference between
the Committee on Appointments and a
committee of five directors, at which con-
ference the president of the college shall
preside, and only after a written report
of the findings of said conference shall be
made to the board of directors for consid-
eration and action by it. All teachers of
the above groups shall be entitled to have
the charges against them stated in writ-
ing-and-to-have a fair hearing on the
charges before this conference before its
findings are reached.”
No attention was paid by the Board of
Directors to the demand that the college
be changed from what has been charged
a “sectarian Quaker college”; that the
trustees should not be restricted to mem-
bers of the Society of Friends, and that
faculty members should have advantage
of the Carnegie Pension Fund.
NAVAL PLATTSBURG FOR COLUMBIA
Plans for a Month's Training Cruise
The committee which is carrying on
the pro-preparedness campaign at Colum-
bia has succeeded so well in already se-
curing 260 alumni and undergraduates for
the Plattsburg training camps this sum-
mer, that it has decided to devote some
attention to the naval aspects of national
defense. A naval cruise of four weeks,
corresponding to the five weeks’ military
drill at Plattsburg, is the latest plan. Ss.
Monroe "17, fullback on the Varsity foot-
ball team, is head of the committee which
has charge of the naval enlistments.
