College Retirement Policy Under Fire by State Board
The state board of education faced sharp criticism as its blanket retirement rule for college presidents and instructors over 85 drew fire from School Supt. W. W. Trent. The nine member board voted 6-1 to enforce retirements with Trent voting no, applying also to state colleges for Negroes. The action affects two college presidents, two deans, and about 20 instructors, with Trent arguing some positions cannot be easily refilled and proposing limited retention pending substitutes. The board also approved budgets for deaf, blind, and Negro colleges and wind-downs of war programs, while planning to inventory training equipment for possible high school use. Trent asserted the decision is legally grounded and not challengeable in court, stressing the authority of the retirement law and the employing boards.
