Opportunity for greater service to the church through
the efforts of the Board of Control of Concordia
Teachers College, River Forest, the Board for Higher
Education, and the Board of Directors by the acquisi-

admirably for educational, research, and administrative
functions Serving the unique immediate and long-range
needs of the Synod; therefore be it

of Concordia Teachers College, River Forest, the Board
for Higher Education, and the Board of Directors for
acquiring the North Riverside property and for their
preliminary planning and first steps in its development;
and be it further

ing facilities be assigned by the Board of Directors to
the Board of Control of Concordia Teachers College,
River Forest, until the 1967 delegate convention; and
be it further

Resolved, That the long-range planning for the
development of the property continue according to
proper administrative procedures; and be it further

Resolved, That the continuing study of the possible
uses of this property be carried out by the Board of
Directors in consultation with the responsible division
heads; and be it finally

Resolved, That on recommendation of responsible
boards and commissions after consultation with the
Council of Administrators, the Board of Directors report
to the 1967 delegate convention the status of the use
and development of this property and the plans for its
