Regents at N. u.
Uphold Byrd
In Resolution
Action Taken After
Receiving Report Of
Student Committee

A resolution expressing complete
confidence in the present admins
tration of the University of Mary
land has been adopted by the uni
versity's Board Of Regents, 1t was
learned today.
w. P. Cole, Baltimore, chairman,
said the resolution was adopted by
the board after it received report
by a committee of 26 students Sc
verely criticizing policies of DR.. II. G.
Byrd, university president.
Mr.. Cole said the board found
nothing in the report to justify an
investigation of conditions at the
institution, and that everything
brought to its attention by the stu
dent committee of 26 appeared to be
purely administrative.
Nothing has been said by the
students concerning any irregularity
in the administration of the univer-
sity." Mr.. Cole declared. 1--WE are
pretty well satisfied with the way
the university is being run"
Students Rap Administration.
The students report, made public
June 6, charged among other things,
that there was neglect of "funda-
mental democracy" in DR.. Byrd's
administration.
On June 10, a referendum was
conducted at the university in which
643 Of the approximately 1900 stu
dents voted in favor of increased
participation in administration poll
cies and presented list of nine
proposed changes in the present re-
gime. Mr.. Cole said today, however,
that the board never received this
list.
Meanwhile, Dr. Byrd said he would
make a complete statement soon
on the controversy between the
students and his administration.
He said his statement would be
made public. after he had obtained
certain facts"
Lists Of Students Charges.
The students report had included
these charges:
l. Neither the faculty nor the
students are permitted to particle
pate in the formulation of edu-
cational policy.
2. The administration censors the
Diamonback, student publication.
3. The administration reserves
the right to change the curricula at
any time.
4. DR.. Byrd never has explained
satisfactorily the purpose of the
Americanization course he an
nounced would begin next fall.
S. Many students and faculty
members opposed acceptance of a
gift from newspaper publisher Will
liam Randolph Hearst "in view of
his past beliefs" This apparently
referred to the scholarship offered
in the Americanization course. \
6. The administration has the
power of appointment Of deans and
department heads.
81 Only two scholars from of the
campus have addressed the student
body in the last two years, despite
the proximity of College Park TO
Washington and Baltimore.
