PRESIDENT WARD DARLEY greets Regent H. Vance Austin in the offices of Mack while Mrs. Vir inia Blue and Charles Bromley look on. 2 2 Y 9 board of regents The directors of the University of Colo- rado are its six Regents who are elected-at- large, whereas the university boards in most states are appointive. The office of Regent was created by the first Colorado state constitution. The Regents and the presi- dent of the University meet fifteen to twenty times a year. They have exclusive control of disbursement of funds and a final word on all major issues concerning the University. This year the motion by H. Vance Aus- tin proposing to eliminate discriminatory clauses in campus organizations aroused a great deal of student interest. The Senate Committee on Student Organizations and Social Life and ASUC both made recom- mendations on solving the problem. BOARD OF REGENTS -- Elwood Brooks, Denver, Mrs. Virginia Blue, Denver, President Ward Darley, Erskine R. Myer, Denver, H. Vance Aus- tin, Denver, Kenneth A. Bundy, Gunnison. Absent from meeting: Charles D. Bromley, Denver.

2 i THE LEADING LADY of Colorado University, Mrs. Ward Darley, drafts the President into a dish-drying detail. close relations he has developed with other state institutions. A favored vacationing spot of the Dar- leys is their cabin in Estes Park, where Dr. Darley of an evening or early morning can avail himself of a nearby trout stream and perhaps add a few rainbow trout to the breakfast menu. Perhaps too, when late fall begins to turn to early winter, presi- dential thoughts may stray from University problems to the possibility of going duck hunting some weekend. Dr. Darley has been a full-time member of the faculty since 1943. In 1946 he be- came dean of the Medical School, in 1949 vice-president of the University, and in July of 1953 he succeeded Robert L. Stearns as president of the University of Colorado. LEISURE TIME comes not too frequently for the Darleys. Their well-furnished upstairs library often becomes a favorite evening retreat. Here President Darley relaxes at the day's end to catch up on his favorite mystery story, while his wife contemplates the week's news.
