Fraternity Housing at Chapel Hill
Mr. Carmichael again referred to the proposed designation of a certain
area at Chapel Hill for housing social and professional fraternities-, and on
motion of Mr. Umstead, seconded by Mr. Maynard, an area of approximately 12
acres located South of Victory Village, East of the Pittsboro Road and North
of Chase Avenue, as shown on a map prepared by the University Engineer (a print
of this map is hereto attached and made a part of these minutes) was
unanimously approved for this purpose. There was some discussion as to the
problem of financing the building of these fraternities, and it was pointed
out that the original resolution authorizing the designation of land for
fraternities carried a provision that the land would be leased to the various
fraternities for a term of 99 years with the understanding that it would revert
to the University, or to State College, as the case may be, in the event it
should cease to be used for fraternity housing, thus permitting fraternities
to borrow money for the construction of their respective houses.

Mr. Umstead moved that a settlement of this proposition, on the basis of
a practical plan, be worked out by the local administration with the approval
of the Consolidated Office and of the Attorney General. The motion was
seconded and carried.

Woman's College:
President Friday made the following requests:

1. Permission to reinstate, for one year, Miss Mildred Harris, whose retire-
ment was reported in February, with permission to include 2 or 3 other
faculty members on the basis that suitable replacements have not been found,
and

2. A request for the support and backing by the Executive Committee of the
Administration in taking Dean Pierson to the Woman's College and in
presenting him to the group there as a temporary replacement for Chancellor
Graham who has resigned.

Mr. Umstead moved that the requests of Mr. Friday be approved. Mrs.
Lathrop seconded the motion and it was unanimously adopted.
