Handbook Section 6.57

In order to make the provisions of this section entirely relevant
the changes made in Section 6.51, the Board for Higher Educa-
ion recommends

That the words “professors, associate professors, instruc-
tors, and assistants, and other officers” be deleted and that
the following words be substituted: “administrative and teach-
ing personnel,”

o that the revised Section 6.57 will read:

“6.57 Salary Schedules
“The salary schedules of all administrative and teaching
personnel, paid in whole or in part from synodical funds, shall
be fixed by the Fiscal Conference upon: recommendation of
the Board for Higher Education to the Board of Directors.”
No action taken.
Handbook Section 6.62

In the recommendations which are being made to the synod-
sical convention of 1950, the Board for Higher Education expresses
1e conviction that it is necessary to add one institution for the
erminal training of teachers to the colleges now available for this
urpose. In addition, three preparatory institutions will be in-
dlved in pre-teacher training programs on the college level if
e recommendations of the Board for Higher Education are ac-
epted. The very apparent growing need for larger numbers of
omen teachers indicates the possibility that other institutions
may be involved in the future program. Already at this time
alparaiso University is suggested as a possibility for an addi-
g tional source of women teachers.

Under these circumstances the distribution of candidates will
require a carefully integrated procedure on the part of Synod. In
ddition to the following recommendation, it may well be that
. Synod should order a review and analysis of the entire current

. mechanics of placement and that appropriate adjustments, suited
eto new conditions, should be made.

The Board for Higher Education believes that at this time
ESynod should make a preliminary adjustment’ in the matter of
lacement, and it therefore recommends that a new section be
Padded to the Handbook. This section is to be known as 6.62. The
4 following wording is recommended:

“6.62 Placement Officers

“All institutions which offer terminal training for pro-
fessional workers in Synod, whether such institutions are
under direct subsidy from Synod or not, shall be held to
conform their placement policies to the synodical provisions
for distribution of candidates for the ministry and the teach-
ing profession. To effectively execute and to fix responsibility
