The topics

suggested the Pr-e s.i dant , He asked what the council might think of an
officer,
perhaps called a provost,
chosen from the nonadministrative
group to conduct dis 11osion3 and be·approachable.
Several council
members spoke in fav r of the provost idea.
Suggestion was made that
the provost might be elected by the instructors
and assistant
professor-s and be ex of'f'Lcf 0 a member of t.he Faculty Council.
Reference
was made to the larg
nurnbers of instructors
and assistant
professors;
they would be an un l.e Ldy group, according to one speaker.
Dr. Las Letsaid that in his ter n on the council he had been trying to serve as an
intermediary
between the group he represents
and the council,
presenting matters to the c uncil from his group and carrying
items back to
them for their infor a tion.
At the close of the discussion,
President
Strand asked all elected members of the council to hold a se sai on with
all intructors
and ssistant
professors
of the group they represent
for discussion
of th provost Idea arid chiefly
to determine whether
need is felt for ad 'tional
