The Faculty met June 16th, 1849

[EVENT: University Administration:Facilities Management  ] The Chairman (P45918) laid before the Faculty (CB0105) the following report of the Inspection Committee and stated that its

[491]

suggestions as far as practicable had been carried out -

"The undersigned a committee appointed by the Faculty (CB0105) to inspect the grounds and buildings of the University (CB0001) in order to ascertain their condition as to cleanliness, report that after giving due notice to the Proctor (P43707) they proceeded to execute the orders of the Faculty (CB0105), being accompanied by that officer and deriving important aid from him. They submit as the result of their inspection in fol- lowing statement and suggestions:

The Alleys (PL8496) and other public portions of the Univer- (CB0001) sity grounds were already in good condition or in process of becoming so, several hands being found actively engaged in sprinkling lime as appropriate places under the orders of the Proctor (P43707) who in several particulars had anticipated the action of the committee. The condition of the ground in the immediate vicinity of the gates communication with the back yards of most of the Pavilions (PL8531) and Hotels (PL8530) must be notes as an exception to the foregoing statement. In those places the servants generally throw out the slops from the kitchens, soap suds and her refuse matter, and although such deposits are frequently carted off by the Proctor's (P43707) orders yet a considerable portion of putrescible matter always soaks into the soil and becomes a fruitful source of offensive exhalations. As this result seems to be unavoidable wherever such deposits are made, even although they should be removed very shortly afterwards, the com- mittee have thought it expedient to recommend that an entire- ly different disposition should be made of all such ma- terials, as will be seen below -

the privies used for the accommodation of the stu- dents were found to be in as good condition as the prever-

[492]

bially careless habits of the persons using them and the extremely faulty construction of the buildings rendered possible - They are cleaned daily, lime being thrown liberally into the boxes and sprinkled on the floors, but as the sleepers of the floor rut directly upon the ground, a necessary consequence is that animal effluvia have been generated abundantly in the very small space between the floor and the soil and that there are no means of removing them and ventilating the undersurface of the floor. If all these buildings were raised so as to elevate their floors say two feet above the soil there could be an effectual ventilation of the whole body of the buildings. The committee would respectfully suggest to the Chairman (P45918) the propriety and expediency of his making a strong rep- resentation to the Board of Visitors (P23150) on this subject.

The private yards attached to the residences of the Professors and Hotel Keepers were found in various degrees of cleanliness. It does not appear necessary to make particular specifications further than may be requisite for insuring the attainments of the end which the Faculty (CB0105) had in view in ordering the inspection - this it is conceived will be fully attained if the suggestions hereto appended be carried out by the parties severally conderned -

It is therefore recommended that the Chairman (P45918) issue an order forthwith to the head of each family residing within the precincts of the University (CB0001), in which order he shall require:

1. That the Yards and grounds be well swept and sprinkled with lime twice a week.

2. That the appartments occupied by servants and the basement rooms of outhouse generally be whitewashed and

[493]

subsequently be well ventilated daily -

3. That the slops, soap suds and other refuse matter from the kitchens, wash houses and dining rooms be kept in watertight barrels on the respective premises until they shall be removed (which should be at least once a day except Sundays) by some person employed by the Proctor (P43707) who shall cast them off to some distant part of the Univer- sity lands - In no case whatever should such matters be thrown out into the Alleys (PL8496) or into the drains which should be exclusively used for carrying off the rain-

The Committee further recommend that the Proctor (P43707) be injoined to visit the premises of the several Professors and Hotel Keepers not later than Wednesday the 18th of the present month, and if on any lot he shall find that the orders of the Chairman (P45918) have not been faithfully executed, there to have the necessary cleaning done by the hands in the service of the University (CB0001) and to charge the cost of the same to the occupant of the premises.

All of which is respectfully submitted -

Dr. G. Harrison Chairman of the Faculty (P25515)

Resolved, that it be recommended to the Board of Visitors (CB0042) in the event of his being unable to enter as a student next Session to grant authority to Mr. Cabell (P36890) to complete his examinations as soon after the first of October next as may be convenient to the Professors -

[EVENT: Student Conduct  ] [EVENT: University Administration:Student Restrictions  ] The Chairman (P45918) laid before the Faculty (CB0105) the following resolution of the Board of Visitors (P23150) -

"Resolved that the Faculty (CB0105) be requested to consider the expediency of so modifying the monthly circular to parents and guardians as to embrace in the same the "Scale of preparation" heretofore in use, or otherwise to modify the same in such manner as to convey information to the parent or guardian at stated intervals as to the

[513]

habits of diligence or otherwise of the student and report their opinion to the Board at its present session.

Whereupon the following resolution was adopted -

Resolved, that the Faculty (CB0105) are of opinion that it is inexpedient to return to the method formerly in use of giving publicity to their numerical estimates of the relative progress made by the students in the several Classes - But whenever information in relation to the di- ligence or progress of a student shall be desired such information shall be transmitted in each monthly circular-

Resolved, that it would be expedient to insert in the monthly circular a notice that such information will be furnished when applied for -

"The present scheme having proved totally insufficient they, therefore, propose to reduce all the earlier lectures to one hour's time, by which room for at least one addition- al lecture, daily, would be gained - Besides, they do not intend to let this change affect the hour from 12½ to 2 o'clock, leaving thus two lectures daily of 1½ hour (one before and one after dinner) for these particular classes where time is either more precious, or more difficult to obtain -"
