The faculty members of the University of Washington write to the Board of Regents to state that the Regents should not add further instructors to the university. Currently, there are eight regular instructors and 100 students who regularly attend. These eight instructors feel comfortable in managing their work as is and feel that the addition of more instructors is unnecessary. ; In 1854, territorial governor, Isaac Ingalls Stevens, suggested that a university for Washington Territory be established. The school did not officially open until November 4, 1861 with 30 students. In 1862, the Washington territorial legislature incorporated the school and appointed a Board of Regents. Throughout the university's early years, the university consisted not only of college curricula but also preparatory school curricula. The school faced constant changes in administration, enrollment and financial support in its first twenty years, often closing due to lack of students or funds. Throughout the late 1870s and 1880s, strong leadership from school presidents helped the university form a stable base of students and a strong reputation though financial problems continued to plague the school. Finally, in 1884, the legislature appropriated funds for the school and continued to make appropriations for the school in the following years. In 1889, the number of students approximated 300. About this time, discussion arose regarding a new site for the growing school. A graduate of the school and later professor, Edmond Meany, served as head of a committee to choose a new site off of Union Bay, further north and east of its current site. In 1895, the school formally moved to this new campus. |
