RY, 1959 15 Memo
TO Members of The Minnesota Alumni As ociation
FROM The Executive Secretary
SUBJECT The Challenge Ahead
These are challenging times at the University. Vice President William T. Middlebrook retires this June after more than 30 years of service. President James Lewis Morrill retires in June of 1960. The loss of these two men means los of the leader hip most responsible for the on-gOing of our great University. Men like these are not easily replaced. Facing us, then, is the immed iate replacement of Vice President Middlebrook and the selection, during the coming year, of a new university president to ucceed President Morrill. Thus, two important and far-reaching deci ions that affect the face and future of the University are before us.
Then there is the expansion program. The West Campus development is already taking shape. Several blocks have been already cleared and the shape of things to come -- actual new buildings -- is already apparent. The University has already presented its building reque t for the 1959 -61 biennium to the State Legislature Interim Building Commission. The request includes funds for the next two years needed to carry forward the ten -year building program to accommo date 38,000 students on the Minneapolis campus by 1970 as well as the increases on the St. Paul and Duluth campu es.
The University budget request for the 1959-61 biennium has already been presented to the Governor anJ the Commi sion of Adminis tration at a budget meeting held November 28, 1958. The Univer sity request -- in light of mounting enrollment, the need for up grading faculty salaries and the need for new faculty - - is up 21 percent over the same request for general maintenance appropria tions for the present biennium.
This will be a difficult time for members of the legislature. Demand
, PH R R D for increased monies will be great. Un less new sources of income are found, there will be no alter native but to cut all state services -- including ed ucational services on all leve Is. Not a pleasant prospect to think about.
The Legis lative Commission on Higher Education is l-ecommending that the agricultural schools at Crookston and Morris be made into four-year branches of the University. It is their considered judgment that such a move would extend needed ed ucational opportunities to an area where virtually no college facilities exist. The Legislative Commis ion on the Agricultur al Schools is also expected to make a similar recommendation to the legislature.
Governor Freeman and Commissioner Art aftalin are both trong advocates of placing all state colleges ( Mankato, St . Cloud, Winona, Moorhead, Bemidji ) under the direct control of the Board of Regent of the University. They feel that this is the best method of achieving a trong system of high er ed ucation in the state .
A 11 of these things, of course, affect the University. All of them are of im portance to Minnesota Alumni. They affect directly and indirectly the chance of your boy and your girl to get a good colkge education. There fore, you must lend your earnest support to your University. You can help in t\~o way : first, you can give liberally to the upport of higher educa tion. Don't forget that tate universities, like the Univer ity of Minne ota, have need of your financial help as much as any other chool . Second ( if you live in the state ), be sure that you know the legislator from your district. Talk to them about the University - - what it doe for the state as a whole, how it furnishes most of the profe ional and scientific leader ship of the state and that it is one of the great and productive univer ities of thi land . . Find out how your legislator feel ( and vote) about the University . If they have que tion we shall get the an wers for you.
Yes, thi i a time of challenge for our Univer ity. But out of the challenge of today with your intere t and help will com th actuality that our Univ ersity will remain great and productive, and that our state and nation will remain trong in the democratic way of life.
incerely, ~~

The University Regents are asking the 1959 legis lature for general maintenance appropriation for $26,221,522 for 1959 -60; and $28,763,674 for 1960-61 or a total of $54, 985,196 for the biennium. This is a 21 percent increase over funds allotted for the present bienni um.
84 million dollars of new revenue will be needed to meet the Governor's pro gram, according to figures reported by Arthur Naftalin, State Commis ioner of Administration. The general revenue funj will fall 58.5 million dollars short of estimated spending. Receipts on the income tax funj will be about 21 million dollars below estimated needs. Another 4.4 million dollars will be requested to meet the current difference in the State school funJ.
That's the way the financial picture shapes up. Among other new services being mentioned there' is a good deal of discussion about the expan ion of the junior college program in the State and of changing the agriculture stations at Morris and Crookston to four-year colleges. In light of the State's financial position it seems just good sense to upport what we hav before adding new programs that will be difficult to maintain financially without a reduction in the quality of present program of welfare and education.
In looking at the maintenance request of the University, I was struck with the fact that although the Regents are requesting $9, 551,756 additional funds for maintenance, a great portion -- 60.5 percent to be exact -- r e lates to items over which the University has no real control.
To explain: During 1959-60 enrollment is estimated to reach 28, 150 student In 1960-61 the estimated enrollment is expected to reach 30,050 stuJents. More students means increased cost of op ration for a 11 items related to enrollment. It means more [acuIty and staff will be ne ded ; more uppli s
PHER D and equipment wi II be used. To take care of the increa ed enrollment over WhICh the Um versity has no control takes 15.8 percent of the 9-1/2 million increase requested.
Then there are the increases in cost required by the University but beyond its control -- such as cost of living adjustment and merit increas es for Civil Service, new service staff neces sary for maintaining new buildings; wage in crease for Physical Plant personnel, and oper ating costs of new buildings. Add to these in creases in fuel prices, telephone rates. postage rates and other price increases. as well as OASI and SERA employer's contribution. and you have a figure amounting to 44.7 percent of the 9-1/2 million dollar in crease requested. Together the e enrollment-related item and increa - es required (but beyond Umversity's control) make up 60.5 percent of the increases requested for general maintenance 1959 -61.
What about the other 39 .5 percent which is di cretionary on the part of the University? This has to do with alary increases for the faculty. And it is a most important subject. In all the discussion of the huge enrollment increases of the next ten years -- empha i seems to fall naturally upon the building nece sary to take care of the increased number . But by far the most important ( and indeed the crucial need) is that of holding pre ent faculty as well as attracting new.
It is estimated by the National Science Foundation that in 1956 there were 196.000 full-time ( or equivalent ) faculty in American college . By 1970 the figure will ri e to 495.000 if we succeed in keeping pace with our needs. "In the period between now and 1970 we mu t not only find enough new teacher to cover enrollment increa e • but must replace all present faculty who retire or move to different field. Con idering these added burdens. it is po ible that the total ne, fa ulty to be recruited by 1970 will be between 300.000 and 400.000. "
1970? The ome what encouraging, the fact i that in the pa t quarter of century only 60 to 70 percent of the PhD' from leading universitie became ollege teacher Most present-day ob erver believe thi per entage will drop in face of vigorous recruiting effort from government and industry. o. the over all problem i mo t eriou .

"Several neighboring anJ comparable state universities indicate that they are requesting increases of their legislatures averaging 21. 1 percent . " It behooves the University to make a like request . However, the University i requesting only a 10 percent increase the fir t year of the biennium and an additional 5 percent the second. Serious competition for top faculty is coming not only from several of the Western Conference schools but from many of the other large state uni versities as well as from the private chools, many of which have more favorable salary schedules than Minnesota. For instance, the ceiling wage for a full professor at Yale is 20,000 ( except School of Medicine which is $22,000 ) . The average salary for a full professor at Minnesota is Ie s than $11, 000 . I doubt if there i a smgle professor on regular academic appointment who receIves $20,000 -- or anywhere near it. Thus, whlle the University is requesting a 9 -1/2 milliOn dollar increase for it general maintenance reque t the next two years, over 60 percent of it invol ves required increases beyond the control of the Umver ity . The 39.5 percent that is discretiOnary on the part of the Univer ity i being a k d to upgrade faculty salaries, to be somewhat competitive in a field In which natIOnally there is a enou hortage. Our In titutlOn will oon become econd rate unle the Univer ity, through a favorable al ary chedule, can hold its pre ent eminent taff, and unless the University can attract enough new and able faculty to take care of replacement a well a meet the increa ing tudent load.

M R H, 1959 9 Memo TO Member of The Minne ota lumni As ociation FROM The Executive Secretary SUBJECT This Matter of the Regents The Regents, the governing body of the Univer ity, are elected by the legis- 1ature . The election of regents is a con titutional duty of the legislature. The Minnesota Alumni A ociation, as a matter of policy and propriety, does not endeavor to influence the legislature in the performance of it important function. But the Alumni Board, the members of the A sociation everywh re anJ the people of our great state are vitally concerned that only the be t po Ibl e regents be elected . As the governing body, the regent determine the policy of the institution and elect the chancellor a chief executive officer of the University and president of the Board of Regents. They are the fmal author ity for the governance of the institution. On the ability and integrity of th Regents , then, rest the welfare of the Univer ity. The University regents ,mu t be above politic, beholden to no group or inJi vidual. They must be able, con cientious anJ d voted . They liould have some understanding of the meaning of a state univer ity, anJ what th "land -grant idea" mean in higher education. They houlJ be knowl dge able about the Univcrsity' program of teaching, re earch, anJ ervice . They should have the time ( as well a desire) to erve the Univorsity l the limits.of their own abilities. They hould have the re p ct of their own community and be of unquestioned integrity. By rea on 01 thcir own prestige anJ s tatu, they should bring prestige and statu to th Unlver ~ lty. If they should have a record of e rvice to the Univer ity and happ n to b a graduate of the Univer ity as well --- 0 much th b tl r. As alumni, WI;:; have had great confidence that the legis lature would ~e l ct only the best possible person for the job of being a r gent. And the record of the legislature, over the years, ba born out uch confid nce . Ours is one of the great and productive universiti s of lh la nd. One of the reasons is the kind of regents who have s rv 1..1 thi educational in ' titutiol1. OPHER R D On ly once before has "power politiCS" entered into the regents' selection . That's why I am concerned and why you, too, should be about the present ituatlOn. Here is the background of the regent election In the pa t: On February 13, 1851, the State territorial legis lature granteu a charter which established the University of Minnesota . The charter was given to a board of 12 regents who were responsible for the creatlOn and conduct of the Umver ity. The term of office was for six years, wIth four member being elected biennially in joint convention of both branche of the legislature . Vacancies for any cau e between ses ion of the legi - lature were to be filled by the Governor . By 1860 the legislature had enacted laws empowering the Governor to appoint the regents by and wIth con ent of the Senate . The term was fixed at four years . On eight other occa ion - - - 1 64, 1 66, 1 6 , 1872, 1889, 1895, 1907, anJ 1923 --- the legi lature enacted law changIng either the length of term, the number of regent to erve, or the method by which they were to be elected . Appointment, however, remained with the Governor. the regent we re e tab li hed, fo r all tIm ,a the ole gov rning authority of the Univer ity. Aloe tabli hed wa that regent were to be elected by the legi lature, not appointed by the Governor. The 1929 and 1931 legi lator complied \ 'ith thi~ Supreme Court decl ion. In 1933, the Hou e \\a ~ controlled by the Farmer-Labor Party and the Senate was Republican . The two chamber couldn't agree on the four appomtment , thu leaving the appointment to Gov. Floyd B. 01 on who named four member of the Fa rmer-Labor Party. In 193- . the con erva tlve ( R publican ) gained control of both hou e and named eight regent Gov _ 01 on in i teJ that the tat con tilutJOn and ub equent law gave him the power to appoint regent _ Thu , the i ue became an outnaht polltica 1 fight to Jetermine which party woulJ control the el tion of the BoariofRegent . Gov. 01 on anJ hi attorney, HarryH. Peter on, took the ca e to court. R gent Ray QUinli an, t. Cloud, \Va the defendant. The upr m Court ruled that the power to name r gent belonged to th legi lature . Thu en.j d th only major political battle for the control of the Boa n .l of R gent - - - up to no\. e ond battle loom on th horizon.

Doe knowl dge of credit This syst m of the promise to pay undoubt dly has had much to do management like growing with bringing a high standard of living to our population.

LI 6-3486 81 MEMO TO MEMBERSHIP - -- regents are seeking re-election. One is not. All hav been fine regents. Each has served well and deserves re-election . Precedence ha it that nine regents (one from each of the State's nine congressional di ~ tricts) will be e lected a long with three at large. To determine who the nominees will be, legislator [rom the congres ional district of the regent to be nominated caucus to name the candidate. Thi is done separately in both the House anJ the Senate. The e nominations ordinarily are accepted by the Univer ity Committee of the House anJ Senate. In the case o[ at-large candidates, the respective University Com mittees make the nomin'ation . The next tep, according to long established custom, is a meeting of the two University Committees in joint session to determine a single slate . The final step is the voting on this slate in joint session of the House and Senate. While nominations may be made from the floor at this time, the recommenJation of the combined University Com mittees have almost always been honored. If the legislature [ail to act, the Governor may appoint four regents who will erve until the nexr ses i.on of the legislature. The situation now shapes up much as it dld in 1933 --- a conservative Senate, a liberal House, and a liberal Governor. The conservatives have a major ity on the Senate's combined Education - University Committee. The liberal have a majority on the University Committee of the Hou e . In joint com mittees of the two, however, the conservative have the majority a they will have wh n the two houses meet in joint es ion to e lect the Univer ity Regents ( 102 conservative votes to 96 liberal vot s ). The House University Committee ha refu ed a joint meeti.ng with the Senate University Committee unle s the Senate Committee agrees to give the lib erals the right to name two regents, it i reported. Th enate has refu ed because they not only have candidates of their own, but al 0 are fearful of what might happen in the joint se sion of the two hou e if a large number of nom inations are maJe from the floor. Thus, at the present, there is stalemate. Close observers of the legislature say that the strategy of the liberal is to keep "upping" their demands anJ adding name of new regent canJiuate with the purpose of preventing the election of the regents by this ion of the legislature . Gov. Orville Freeman then would name four r g nts with a v ry real possibility that by July, 1960, th liberals would have control of th Board of Regents anJ would then be able to name the succe ~or to Pres. J . L. Morrill who retires tha t year. 32 GOPHER For the many people of the State who have the good of the University at heart, the legi lature' failure to act is an intolerable situation -- - thi bringing of politics into the election of the regents. The re ult i that the people of the State --- every graduate and former tu dent of the UmversIty, no matter where they are --- will suffer . Bringing politics into regent election mean only one thing - -- the detenoration and downgrading of a great uni versity. Will this then happen? It's up to you, the alumni of the Univer ity, and the people of the State. Unless you speak out and in ist that politic be left out of the election of Univer ity regents, it could happen. Who 1 appointed is not the question only that they be the be t po ible people who can be found for the job.
