See WORKSHOP, page U Institute of Government Placed Under University Jurisdiction By Jimmy Wallace The Institute of Government, formerly an independent organiza tion and one of the nation's unique agencies for governmental in formation, research and in-service training, has been merged with the University, it was announced yesterday. x The merger of the Institute, founded by Professor Albert Coates, with the University was adopted by the Trustees on the recommendation of the University Ad- : ministration and Governor Broughton. The Institute will continue under the direction of Professor Coates, G Maurice Hill becoming associate di rector and business manager. Along with these the present staff of six ac tive and . six consulting lawyers will remain intact. Working Partnership Viewed by officials on all three sides, the new move brings the Uni versity and the Institute, which has a membership of approximately 90 per cent of the cities and counties in the state and 5,000 officials and leading citizens, into "a working partner ship" for the maintenance of the high est level of public administration in this state. The Institute will retain its own name and identity, its staff, building, and resources and its board. It will have the status of a separate division, a separate budget, and an autonomy of its own. Representatives to Be Added v The Institute board is now compos ed of Chairman W. A. Devin and three representatives' each from the state, county, and city officials. To these will be added five representatives from the three branches of the Great er University. The Institute's three story .building, erected in 1939 from private contribu tions as a center-of information and training, will remain the property of the orsranization. This will be rented however, to the University until , ar ranffements . are worked out to turn over the property and its full sup.- port to the University. . The incorporation of the Institute as a. department of the University a this time, according to an official an nouncement, was made possible by generous private contribution. This will supplement the Institute's pres ent revenues from city and county memberships and other operating funds until supplementary provision is made on recommendation of the gov ernor and by legislative action.
