RANK OF CLINICAL ASSOCIATE IN THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE
(8) The University Senate recommends the establishment of the rank "clinical
associate" for certain appointments to the nonsalaried faculty of the College of
Medicine. This involves an amendment of the revised University of Illinois
Statutes, approved by the Board of Trustees January 16, 1957, to become effective
September I, 1957, in Section 35, paragraph (c), the revised paragraph to read
(new language is in italics) :
The following academic ranks are recognized: professor, associate professor,
assistant professor, instructor or research associate, and assistant. For the College
of Medicine the rank of clinical associate is also recognised. Appropriate academic
rank, with the rights and privileges pertaining thereto, may be accorded members
of the administrative staff.
I concur in this amendment.
On motion of Mrs. Watkins, this amendment was adopted.
AMENDMENT OF UNIVERSITY STATUTES
(9) The University Senate recommends that the revised University of Illinois
Statutes, approved by the Board of Trustees on January 16, 1957, be amended by
the addition to Division III, Subdivision C-i, a new Section 18-2:
Professional Colleges at Urbana-Champaign
Section 18-2. (a) The College of Veterinary Medicine of the Urbana-Champaign
campus of the University is a professional college within the meaning of
this Section.
(b) The supervision of student affairs of students enrolled in the College of
Veterinary Medicine, excluding discipline, is the responsibility of the College of

Faculty of the College.
(c) Student discipline for students enrolled in the College of Veterinary
Medicine shall be administered by the Committee on Discipline of the Urbana-
Champaign Senate in accordance with the provisions of Section 6, paragraph (h).
The Senate Committee on Student Discipline shall, after consulting the Dean of

students enrolled in the College. The Senate Committee on Student Discipline shall
hear and decide cases appealed to it from this subcommittee. The provisions of
Section 6, paragraph (h), relating to the formulation of procedures and original
and appellate jurisdiction of the Senate Committee, shall apply to disciplinary
cases hereunder.
This amendment was proposed by the faculty of the College of Veterinary
Medicine and recommended by a special committee appointed by the Vice-President

approved by the Board of Trustees on March 12, 1957, with respect to administration
