Regents Give
Approval to Re
tirement Plan
Board of Regents Saturday Makes
Paculty Promotions and Grants
Leaves of Absence.
Faculty promotions, leaves of ab
sence, and a retirement plan occu
pied much of the time cf the uni
versity board of regents Saturday.

from assistant professor of chemistry,
to associate professor, was given
leave. of absence for five months next

igan. O. C. Collins, Instructor In
mathematics and astronomy, was giv
en leave for next year to do graduate
work at Yerkes observatory. His
work will be carried on by C. J.
Rust, instructor in physics.
A retirement plan that eventually
will provide faculty retirement at
the age of 70 was approved by the
beard. As set up, the plan, which
goes into effect in 1936 will retire at
half salary all faculty, members, re
search workers, and administrative
employes who have reached 75. In
future years the age limit will be
reduced one year annually until In
1941-42 faculty members will be re
tired at age 70. Provision was also
made that faculty members with at
least twenty-five years of service who
have reached age Go or are incapaci
tated for full time service may also
be subject to this plan. The regents
reserved the right to retain faculty
members on active service if the best
interests of the institution so de
mand. Up to this time the university has

individual merits. Following are the

braska from 1898 to 1900 and while

Not Always!
A good reputation should always
be one of the most valuable assets
any organization could have but
sometimes, we have found, such a
ieputaticn works out to a disadvant
age. The reason for this is, cf course,
that one naturally associates high
prices with fine services, and, in our
case at least, this is a mistaken line
of reasoning.
