The degrees recommended by Presi-
dent Kellogg on behalf Of the faculty
were conferred by unanimous vote.
Regent Hallidie then called atten-
tion to the fact that there were no
seals attached to the diplomas
President Kellogg said that the uni
versity was not provided with seals
for the use Of the different depart
ments Of the college, although it had
been recommended in his last report
that seals be provided.
Regent Hallidie moved that the sec
retary Of the board be instructed to
confer with the faculty of the differ
ent departments and provide appro-
pirate seals.
The motion was carried after a brief
discussion.
President Kellogg asked that the
board sanction the publication of the
university Chronicle" the object Of
which is set forth in the following an
nOuncement:
The University Chronicle is intend
ed to furnish a record of such events
in the life of the university as may be
of general interest. 1t will contain re-
ports of occasional addresses, cOrre-
spOndence concerning additions to the
funds or equipment of the institution
notices and reviews of the meetings Of
the various scientific and literary
associations and such other informa-
tion as ought to have place in
current account of the progress of the
university. 1t will be issued six times
q year, and the contents Of each num-
Der viii ordinarily be drawn from the
events of the two months preceding
the date of publication; but in the first
number it has been thought advisable
TO present a selection from the more
important addresses and correspond
enCe pertaining to a longer period"
Kellogg said that all Of the promi-
nent universities throughout the
world have similar publications, and
he believed that with the subscrip-
tions and advertisements the Univer-
sity Chronicle could be published at a
yearly cost not to exceed 5000.
On motion of Regent Denicke it was
decided TO authorize the publication
of the journal, the first number Of
which will appear in the early part of
next month.
Regent Marye offered resolutions
urging the representatives from Cali
fornia at Washington to assist in the
passage of the bill presented by Sena-
tor Perkins providing for the estab-
lishment Of additional copyright de-
pOsitories in the cities Of San Fran
cisco. Denver, Chicago and New Or
leans.
The resolutions were adopted by a
unanimous vote.
The meeting then adjourned after
passing a resolution of thanks to
Louis Janin for a donation of 100
works on metallurgy to the university
library
