Increments for Faculty Members
Doctor Parsons raised the question regarding the payment of
increm.ents to miembers of the instructional staff who are below the
step to which preparation and experience entitle them. Doctor Haas
stated that increments are governed by the State Salary Qualification
Schedule and that neither he nor anyone in the Department has the
authority to waive the provisions of the Schedule,
He stated, however, that if money is available in the budgets
of the institutions to grant increments to employes, both instructional
and non-instructional, who are below the step to which they are entitled,
he would approve a lim.it of two incr-'~ments a year for such pe-sons. He
suggested that the increments be granted semi-annually if possible but

E.
Surjmary of Unit Costs
During the me-^^ting Mr. McClure presented and discussed a
summary of unit costs required by the Budget Office and reported by
colleges on their budget forms. These unit costs consisted of the
following two categories:
1.
Cost of Classroom Instruction
Student Clock-Hours of Instruction
2.
Cost of Dining Room and Kitchen
Actual Number of Meals Served
«
cost per Student Clock -Hour
cost per Meal Served
>
Because of extensive variations in the unit costs reported,
the Budget Office asked for an explanation before approving the budgets.
Mr. McClure pointed out the advisability of the colleges
calculating the unit costs, not merely reporting the number of units,
so that marked variations will be apparent to them and necessary
revisions made before the budgets are submitted.
The number of units must be carefully determined if they are
to have any value.
At the beginning of a biennium when the budget is
submitted, the above units and unit costs are estimated for the
ensuing six months. When the budget is revised for the second sixmonths period, the first six-months estimates should be revised to actual
and the second six months estimated. 'Then the budget is revised for
the third six-months period, the second six-m.oiiths estimate should be
revised to actual and the third six months estimated, et cetera.
Doctor Haas asked the Presidents to reexamine estimates
reported for the six months ending November 30., 1946 and to advise
him the reasons for the variations requested by the Budget Secretary,
A copy of the comparative costs in the various institutions
appears on the following page.
F,
declassification of Business Managers and Bursars
The Chairman of the Board stated that the State Salary Schedule
lists institutions on the basis of population and that the salaries of
certain employes in the Departments of Health, 'Welfare, and public
Instruction are based on population. Business m.anager's and bursars
in the State Teach«^rs Colleges fall into this category and the
question has be'^^n raised with the Superintendent of public Instruction
as to whether children of the local district should not be counted in
the population of the institution, thus living a higher rate.
The Chairman stated that he was referring this question of
determining the institutional population as it regards the salaries
of bursars and business managers to the Budget Committee for study
and report.

Fees for Students Entering Stata Teachers Colleges
under Cooperative Flan with St ate College
The question was raised as to the policy regarding fees for
those students who will be enrolled at the State Teachers Colleges in
accord with the coorerative program worked out with The Pennsylvania
State College,
The Chairman stated that students in the cooperative prOfzram
should pay the same fees as regular students preparing for teaching.
He pointed out that if the students in the cooperative program elected
to take courses in the special curriculums, then the fees prescribed
for the special curriculiuns would be charged wherever such students
'^^'ere enrolled in a State Teachers College approved for offering the
specific type of special curriculum.

K.
St atement from County Health Offic e
Doctor Pohrbach brought to the attention of the members of
the Board a statement from the County Health Office ad-vising that
nilk must be served from individual milk containers and not in
bulk, A State law provides that all such milk distribution in
hotels, restaurants, et cetera, must be served from individual
containers. He sug^-^ested that each institution study the methods
used in the several colleges and ascertain whether there is

Report of Calendar Cominittee
The question of the interpretation of the Governor's meraoranduni
under date of July 31, 1946 with reference to the holidays to be observed
was discussed.
The Chairman of the Calendar Cojiurdttee specifically raised the
question as to whether such days were to be counted as part of the ISO
days during which the colleges were to be in session.
Since some of the
institutions interpreted "shall be observed" as meaning that the
institutions would be closed while other institutions interpreted the
phrase to mean that the holidays would be observed by appropriate
exercises, the Chairman of the Calendar Committee requested a specific
interpretation from the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
D.
Additional Payment
to Instructional Staff Members
Questions were raised concernine: additional payments to
instructional staff members engaged in other than teacher education
projects. Foi"" questions developed:
1.
May additional compensation be paid to instructional staff
members for instructional services rendered in programs other
than teacher education programs?
2.
If so, what constitutes the ma3Cimura teaching load at which
point the additional com.per.sation becomes operative?
3.
If additional compensation may be paid, what is the rate?
4.
Viihat,
if any, should be the maximum beyond the regular
instructional load for such employes?
Since the questions were closely related to the matter of the
establishment of centers - on and off the campuses of the State Teachers
Colleges - the Secretary reao a statement of policy which the Chairman
had preparedo
The statement follows:
-1785-
"A number of inquiries have been made concerning the
sponsoring of centers both on and off the campuses of the State Teachers
Colles'es. As I understand the requests, the students attending these
centers would be both veterans and non-veterans and the work taken would
be similar to that taken in the college area centers under Doctor Steele.
"I have no objection to the establishment of such centers if
it will help to provide college education for Pennsylvanians who cannot
secure admission to existing institutions. Hov.ever, I would like to make
it clear that uniform regulations luust be established for all such centers;
that the request for the establishment of the center mpst be maae under the
provisions of .'^ct 83; that where over-time is to be paid to faculty?members, that the usual request for such service be submitted to me for
approval by the Executive Board. I suggest that the matter be discussed
at the meeting Friday and tne various points be mutually agreed upon.
"It should also be noted that for present faculty members ivho
desire to teach in college area centers, a request must be made for
additional compensation since the payment in both cases is from State
appropriation. Before approving any request for extra compensation,
I desire a recommendation of policy from the Board as to wh^t is to be
considered a standard load for a regular faculty member of a State
Teachers College and a statement as to what woiiLd be the maximum
additional load that should be approved."
The answers to the above questions were briefly stated as
follows:
1,
Additional compensation may be paid for instrucHonal services
rendered in programs other than teacher education programs,
providing the required approvals have been given, that is,
the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the Executive
Board.
2,
Eighteen semester hours per week would be considered a
reasonable maximum load.
3*
Compensation paid should be consistent with compensation
provided for area centers xinder the Area Center College
Program,
A»
The m.-ximum beyond the regular instructional load for such
employes shoxild not exceed six semester hours,
S,
Contracts Covering Student Teaching Arrangements
The Secretary of the Board stressed the importance of maintaining
an up-to-date file of current contracts between the State Teachers Colleges
and local school districts covering student t.achin?. He asked each
President to make certain that such contracts are in proper legal order
and that a copy of each contract in force is filed with the Department
of Public Instruction,
-1736-
F,
Proposed Change in Housin;? Fees
The Secretary of the Board called attention to the fact that
only four Boards of Trustees xhave thus far acted upon the proposed chansre
in the housing fees.
Since final approval of the Superintendent of Public
Instruction is pending until all Boards of Trustees have acted on the
resolution. Presidents were urged to call this matter to the attention
of their Boards at the next meetings.

It was the general feeling that delay in payrolls was causing
on
resignations and other employment difficulties. If the fault is not within

maintained among all classifications of employes if such payrolls can be
handled more expeditiously,

1.
Report of the Budget Committee
Act A03
Doctor Noonan, Chairman of the Budget Committee, stated that
his committee had met with Mr. Quackenbush to discuss the effect of
Act /f03 on the budget situation at the State Teachers Colleges, As a
result of this discussion the fact was brought out that Act 403
applies to public school districts only and as far as the relationship between local school districts and the State Teachers Colleges
was concerned, financial arrangements would have to be based on a
contract between the school district and the State Teacliers College.
It was suggested by Doctor Noonan that this item be continued
on the agenda for comments from time to time and that a specific
recommendation be made at a later date.
2.
Reclassification and Salaries of Business Managers
Doctor Noonan, Chairman of the Budget Committee, presented the
following report:
REPORT OF BUDGET COMilTTEE
November 20,
Re:
19-^6
Reclassification and Salaries of Business Managers
The business administration of State Teachers Colleges is
1,
conducted through officials elected by the Boards of Trustees as bursars,
accountants, stewards, institutional secretaries, and business managers.
Such positions carry with them considerable responsibility, and require
employes of greater than average ability and integrity.
In recent years the customary arduous duties have been multiplied
to a marked degree by increased student enrollm.ents, larger instructional
and non-instructional staffs, complicated problems of maintenance, higher
costs of operation, difficulties in the procurment of food and other
needed supplies, scarity of personnel and materials, technicalities in
dealing with various State and Federal agencies, numerous legal and
accounting relationships with the Veterans Administration, additional
bookkeeping and clerical re.rairement s, s ur plus ^pro pert y purchases,
contracts with the Federal Housing Agency, anc^ multiplicity of postwar details, including the construction and renovation of facilities to
accommodate veterans both on and off campus,
It is becoming increasingly difficult to retain capable men and
this
capacity because of inadequate compensation for the services
women in
rendered, present salaries not being commensurate '?'"'th the duties and
responsibilities involved.
2,
The following recommendations are submitted as a conservative
3,
solution of this problem:
-1792-
a.
That the Superintendent of Public Instruction be requested
to seek authorization from the Governor to notify Boards
of Trustees that the Governor mil consider recommenda~
tions from the Boards of Trustees for appointments or
reclassifications as Business Manaj^er B,
b.
That the salary range of such appointees, all to be designated
Business Manager B, if approved by the Superintendent and the
Governor, be changed from the present range of $32AO - $3840,
plus maintenance valued at $768, to $36^2 - vA.A.82, plus
maintenance valued at $768, This su^p-ested change would
provide a total maximun salary for Business Manager B at
$5250, including maintenance.
c.
That salaries of present employes in this category, who are
reclassified as Business Manager B and who are now receiving
salaries below the proposed minimum, may be increased $150
-^'^
each six months until tht new minimum is reached^

On a viva voce vote only two dissenting voices were heard.
C.
American A rbitration Association
Doctor Houk stated that he had had correspondence with Mr, Joseph
M. Murphey, a member of the American Arbitration Association, regarding the
possibility of having the Board of Presidents attend a typical meeting of
the American Arbitration Association, He also stated that a meeting of
the American Arbitration Association was to be held in New York City
December 3, 19A.6, together with a n^eeting of the United Nations Conference,
December A, 19^6, Doctor Houk stated that the members of the Board were
cordially invited to attend these meetings.
It was then m.oved by Eoctor Noonan, seconded by Doctor Parsons,
that Doctor Houk be appointed the official representative of the Board of
Presidents at these two meetings to be held in New York December 3rd and 4th
and that he subsequently report to the Board as to the aavisability of
developing a similar program with the American Arbitration Board to be
held in Pennsylvania.
The Board so voted .

propriety of accepting cigarette company advertisements for college

advertisements for any publications of the State Teachers Colleges,

I,

stated that the time is now ripe for the State Teachers Colleges to
establish this rule, namelj?", to require one year of residence at the
institution before participation in scholastic athletics is permissibis^
Doctor Nelson suggested tnat the members of the Board consider the
question and take action along this line.
On motion of Doctor Rohrbach, seconded by Doctor Nconan, the
Board voted that the matter be referred to the Athletic Association
CoJTimittee for a report at the next meeting both on this particular
question and on the matter of bringing the existing athletic
regulations up-to-date,
K.
Compensation for Student Help
The question of raising the rate paid for student help was
discussed. It was moved by Doctor Swope, seconded by Doctor Gilbert,
that the question of adjusting the compensation, including the hours
of emplojmient, for student help be reviewed in the light of the
present economic situation and that the matter be referred to the
Budget Comiriittee for study and a report at the next meeting of the
Board. The Board so voted »
L.
Sick Leave and Substitute Pay
The question of the interpretation of the policy established
by the circular letter of October 11, 1929, with regard to sick leave and
substitute pay was discussed. There was a general feeling that the rate
of $7oOO established in the policy as the maximum salary to be paid per
day to substitute teachers was, in the light of the present high cost of
living, too low to enable the institution to secure instructors with the
proper educational and experience backgrounds.
Therefore, on motion of Doctor Houk, seconded by Doctor Rohrbach,
the Board voted tnat the following recomjiiendation regarding the readjustment
of payments to substitute instructors in the State Teachers Colleges be
presented to the Superintendent of Public Instruction for his consideration;
1.
2.
A flat rate of splO.OO per day may be paid if services can be
secured on the basis of such a rate,
In the event that substitute services cannot be secured ^
such a basic rate, then the maximum amount that may be paid

Following a meeting of the Board of Presidents
on September 20, 1946 I advised Doctor Klonower that I would
issue a statement interpreting- for '^tate Teachers t-Iolle^es the
memorandum from Governor I^iartin under date of July 31, 1946
relating to Institutional Holidays.
It is not the intention of the Governor's memorardam to interfere with the normal operation of the Institutions
within the Department of Pu'dl ic Instruction. "In other xvords, it
is contemplated that t e educational schedule will he operated as
it has been in the past following the calendar approved by the
Board of Presidents. The memorandum, which "oes not refer to
instructional employes, means that employes, oth r than instructional, if required by the Board of 'trustees to remain on duty on
the days indicated in the Governor's memorandum "shall be given
equivalent time off where practical." '"here triis is not
practical "institutional employes working on these days shall be
paid, as extra compensation, the daily or overtime equivalent of
their annual salaries."

Pxorse,
Mr. A. 0.
Registrar, met with the Board to discuss the matter of coritinuing the
cooperative program for the year 19-^ 7-194-8. Doctor Hetzel expressed
his appreciation for the splendid cooperatio-n that the College received
in every way and his hope that the State Teachers Colleges would be in
position to continue tne cooperative program along the same lines as
last year.
a
Mr. Morse stated that he was deeply srrateful for the help and
cooperatipsr of the Deans of Instruction.
Mr. Hoffman asked whether it would be possible to furnish him
with a tentative statement as to the approximate number of students that
could be taken at each of the institutions and the curriculums in which
they would be accommodated. He said that if he could have this statement
by February 15, 19 A?, it would be most helpful.
It was then moved by Doctor Noonan, seconded by Doctor Gilbert,
that the State Teachers Colleges continue the cooperative program with
The Pennsylvania State College on the saine basis as last year and that
the institutions try to take the sam.e number of students as last year
or more if possioie. The Board vo ted to approve the motion.

Problejus Relating to th e Admission of Physically
Handicapped Studen ts Sponsored by the Bureau of
Rehabilitation
Mr. Andruss raised the question regarding the admission of
students with physical handicaps which prevented them from taking the
required work in physical oaucation. He stated that there apparently
was a difference of policy in the several institutions and asked for
a clarification of the matter.
The Chairman of the Board referred the matter to the Curricular
and Credentials Committee with the suggestion that a simple questionnaire
be prepared which would indicate what the practices in the institutions
are and how many cases arose that needed to be considered. He stated
that the form should give some indication of the types of physical
handicaps that might be admitted to the institutions and also the types
to which admission should be denied.

payment of instructional costs, et cetera, for students at the
non-profit colleges. In the course of the discussion, it developed
that conflicting internretations v\'ere resulting in confusion, namely,
whether the ^^6.0 J per semester hour charge is applicable or whether
the actual cost of the semester hour is to be calculated by the
separate institutions.
The members of the Board were of the opinion that uniformity
should exist in all the institutions. The Chairman of the Board stated
that he would arrange to have the Presidents of three or four of the
institutions meet and perhaps go to Philadelpliia to confer with
the authorities of tne Veterans Administration there. He advised
the members of the Boara not to move on the matter until they received
definite word from him,

semester's work (9 weeks and 8 hours of work or more) shall be
considered for eligibility on the same basis as for the preceding 9 weeks
of attendance if the work is done at the same college.
In all cases
exclusion from teams shall be for a period equal to the period covered
by the report
Section 4. No student who vuhile in college is competing under
a false name or is receiving .money or other valuable considereation,
either directly or indirectly, for competing in athletic contests, is
eligiPle to take part in any contest in that sport during that session.
Section 5. No member of a Colle r-e team shall be permitted to
engage in athletics activity on any other team in the same sport during
the playing season in which he is participating on a team representing
the college.
Section 6. At least four days before every official game,
eligibility lists, certified by the Presidents of the competing schools,
shall be exchanged.

junior college, to a State Teachers College shall be eligible for any
intercollegiate competition until after a 36 weeks' residence. Where

rank and matriculation in a State Teachers College, a student so
enrolled is not to be considered as a transfer and shall be eligible

Section 8. The student who trains at a training camp with a
college before the football season opens but who does not register at
the college is eligible to enter a teachers college and play that season.
Section 9. All matters relating to intercollegiate athletic

Report of Special Coiomittee - Veterans

Administration
Doctor Stsale, Chairman of the Special Committee, presented
the following report:
R3P0RT OF SPECliiL COMMITTEE
March 28, 19A7
Re:
Conference with Officisls of the Veterans Administration
A special committee of the Board of Presidents, consisting of
Presidents Andruss, Swope and Steele, and Doctor Klonower, met with
General vrilson. Deputy Administrator of Veterans Affairs, and members
of his staff in Philadelphia, February 10, 19^7.
Previous to this meeting, members of the Board of Presidents
asked
to submit questions and items for clarification. A number
were
of these were proposed and formed the basis of discussion at the
meeting. General Wilson and his staff were most gracious end eaf^er
to resolve any difficulties or misunderstandinp-s existing in connection
with the education of veterr^ns in the State Teachers Colleges.
The most Laportant discussion centered about the fee to be
charged. Circular 268 offers several options. The Veterans Administration
repeatedly emphasized its willingness to pay to the teachers colleges, for
each veteran enrolled under 3^6, an established out-of -State fee which
would include the full cost of instruction or to figure the cost on the
basis prescribed in the circular. Since it was admitted by all that the
present fee of $6.00 per semester hour did not reflect the present cost
and since it is low in comparison to the cost for sirrdlar instruction in
other public and private institutions, it was suggested that this fee be
re-examined and an out-of -State fee fixed that v-/ould cover £-11 reasonable
costs.
If such a fee were fixed, General Vlilson stated that no questions
would be raised by the Veterans Administration so long as this out-of-State
fee is charged all out-of-State enrolloes, veteran or non-veteran alike.
The comjnittee, therefore, recommends:
First:
That the Fees Comirdttee be directed to make a study
of present costs of instruction on a semester hour
basis.
-18U-
Second:
That an out-of-State fee be est.iblished based on this
study.
Third
:
That a special meeting of the Board be arranged for the
consideration of the committee's report and that meetings
of Boards of Trustees be arranged so that the nev; policy
may be made effective June 1, 19A7.
The committee further recommends that, pending the fixd.ng of
a new out-of -State fee, all colleges that have not alre^xdy vouchered
the Veterans Administration on a computed cost basis, use the present
$6.00 per semester hour rate.

Report of the Curricular and Credentials Committee
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular and Credentials
-1818-
Committee, stated that he had no formal report to present at this time.
He asked, however, that each President advise him as to which
instructors designated to work on curriculum committees will be available
during the coming summer.
B.
Report of the Fees Committee
Mr. Andruss, Chairman of the Fees Committer stated that his
committee had no fomal report to present at this time.
However, during the discussion the following matters came
before the Board for consideration:
1.
Collection of Foes from Veterans AdiTiinistration
Mr. Andruss stated that a question had been raised regarding
the collection of fees from the Veterans Administration. Two methods
One, to bill at the and of the fifth week for
of billing can be used.
the full instructional cost, as is now being done; and two, to collect
a round sum based on the estimated number of students and then submit
a second bill for the remainder of the money at a later period.
The Chairman of the Board referred the matter to Doctor
Steele's committco with the request that ho ascertain whether the
Presidents desired a change in the present method of billing the
Veterans Administration.
2.
Laboratory Fees for Free Electives
Doctor Biemesderfer stated that certain free electives, such
as Driver Training Courses, involved the expenditure of money for
necessary equipment and th.it this made it difficvdt to make the summer
session self supporting. He asked whether any provision might be made
for the collection of laboratory fees in courses of this kind.
The Chairman of the Board referred the matter to the Fees
Committee for study and report with the understanding that for the
coining summer session fees will not be charged since, under the
present policy, there is no authority to charge such fees.
3.
Out-of-state Fee
Doctor Noonan called the attention of the Board to the fact
that in accordance with the action of the Board of Presidents April 11,
19A7, setting the out-of -State fee at ^7.50, certain enrollees in the
State Teachers Colleges would pay $6.00 per semester hour while out-ofState students would pay #7.50 per semester hour. He expressed the
thought that there should be uniformity.
The Chairman of the Boar suggested that th*3 matter be referred
to the Fees Committee to determine whether it is advisable to reopen the
matter of fees and report at the next meeting of the Board.

will become effective June 1, 19A-7.
E.
Dues - American Association of Teachers Colleges
The matter of increased dues to the American Association of
Teachers Colleges was discussed. The Chairman stated that the
institutions were clear on their memberships for this year. He
stated thsh it was the responsibility of the Presidents to deciae
whether menbership in this organizaticn would benefit the institutions
enough to justify the payment of the increased dues for next year.
At the request of the Chairman, the item was removed from
the Docket.
F.

A,
Report on Conference - Higher Education
Doctor Parsons, official representative of the Board of
Presidents to the Higher Education Conference in Chicago, reported
to the Board on the outstanding points of discussion at the Conference.
The four main topics discussed were as follows:
1.
Enrollments - by 19-^9-1950, 6,000,000 persons will be enrolled
Pre-war enrollments will never
in institutions.
be returned to.
2.
Equality of educational opportunities with Federal subsidy for
higher education. It would be a movement toward
national security to have Federal support from
public schools and beyond to include not only
two years of college but four years of college
for students having the ability to go on.
3.
Increasing trend toward two year pre-prof essional courses
incorporated in State Teachers Colleges.
4..
Value of surplus property to tcechers colleges and small colleges
The suggestion was made that it v^ould be advisable
to employ an agent to spend full time checking on
valuabe surplus property.
-1821-
Policy Re Summer Sessions
The question was raised as to the pajmont of summer session^
salaries. The Chairman stated th?t the payment of one hundred percent
was a goal toward v/hich to strive but that the entire matter was one
limited by available funds.
.
The Chairman then asked the Budget Committee to consider the
question of summer session salaries from the point of view of budget
costs in order to reduce the cutting of salaries.
C»
Available Instructional Staff for Summer Session
The suggestion was made that each President send out a circular
letter listing the types of instructors he would need for the summer
session and at the same time listing members of his instructional staff
who would be available for summer positions in other institutions. In
this way, many instructors can be placed for sximmer positions.
D.
Transportation for Student-Te iche rs
Doctor Swope called to the attention of the Board the
increasingly important problem of transportation for student teachers.
He asked what the legal responsibility of the institution is in regard
to payment of transportation.
The Chairman of the Board referred the matter to the Budget
Committee with the suggestion that the comriiittee study the matter from
the point of view of budgets, exploring present practices with regard
to transportation and housing, and report at the next meeting of the
Board,
E.
Tenure Principles
Doctor Houk stated that he had been asked by the President
of the Association of State Teachers College Faculties to advise the
Board of the Association's interest in the matter of tenure in the
State Te^-chers Colleges. It was the feeling of the Board that in
general the Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges subscribe to the
principles of the American Association of Teachers Colleges, including
tenure, with the limitations plsced on the institutions in being state-
owned institutions.
The Chairman advised Doctor Houk to ackjiowledge Doctor Sykes'
letter, stating that he had presented the matter to the Board of
Presidents and that when further action is taken on the matter, the
Secretary of the Board will keep him informed.
F.
Surplus Property
During the meeting Doctor Crcssman met with the Board and
called attention to the valuable material now available in surplus property.
He stated that for institutions interested in electronic material, this
presented an opportunity to secure it at a fraction of its original cost.
It was moved by Doctor Chandler, seconded by Doctor Van Houten
-1822-
I
that Doctor Cressman, together with certain members of the instructional
staffs of several of the State Teachers Colleges familiar with the type
of equipment available, duplicate for all of the institutions a model
It was also
order, including any material that would be of value.
suggested that Doctor Gressman set a date and invite the Presidents to
send representatives to carry out this plan. Presidents were asked to
advise Doctor Klonower of the names of any staff member whose knowledge
of this typo of equipment would be valuable in selecting the material.
The Board voted to approve the motion.
Ct.
Effective Date - New Athletic Regulations
Question vcas rasied regarding the effective date of the new
athletic regulations adopted by the Board March 28, 19^7. It was the
unanimous judgment of the Bo^rd that the effective date of the
