Dr. James R. Foulger Business Vice President "The continued growth has been an inspiration to all of us who have been at the college for a number of years. It has been a pleasure to watch the campus grow and to watch the caliber of the students rise, for they are more sophisticated and knowledgeable students," according to Dr. Foulger. "I'm looking forward to the development of the plans of financing and the construction of the proposed Special Events Center which will be something that both the college and the city of Ogden will enjoy and be proud of," Dr. Foulger reported.

Clarke Administrative Vice President Dr. Clarke is in charge of the college in the absence of the president. Dr. Clarke feels that this has been an outstanding year in several respects, "Students are more dedicated to their studies an out-of-class activities in contrast to the past few years of student unrest. Perhaps because of general economic conditions, job goals are more sharply defined "The completion of badly needed buildings will tend to east crowded classrooms and office conditions as enrollments level Plans have been made to beautiful the campus with more landscaping as soon as funds become available." Institutional Council Delegated Role In Selection Of New W.S.C. President In a precedent setting move the Weber State College Institutional council was delegated responsibility for screening applicants in the selection of the college's new president. The Utah Board of Higher Education, the board which made the appointment, asked the W.S.C. council for names of at least three candidates qualified for the office. The W.S.C. institutional council created an 11-member screening committee of representatives from the faculty, administration, staff, alumni association and student body. The Institutional council's executive committee met with the screening com- mittee to review composite qualifications for the president prepared by the committee. A.S.W.S.C. president Dan Hunter said that the list of qualifications was so idealistic that the "only man that could fill all of them died two thousand years ago." Mr. Frank Francis, Institutional Council Chairman, anticipated at least 50 applications from throughout the U.S. "There is considerable interest and enthusiasm in this office," he said. The opening was widely publicized by Myron Holbert of the Utah Office of Higher Education who acted as executive secretary for the screening committee. Weber State College Institutional Council.
