Extract from the opinion of the Attorney General.

"5th. That any person appointed to fill a chair is a professor ,and(sic) notwithstanding the fact that he may be called an associate professor .he(sic) is a de facto professor ,and(sic) should have a voice in the government of the college. The original act has been changed in some respects, but more for the purpose of meeting the limited number of students in our new State, than to change the general meaning of the whole law. And I am inclined to think that any By-Law remitting any professor occupying a chair in any college to have a voice in the government of the college, is not in conflict with the law of the State ,nor(sic) does it change the rule if the ByLaw designat e(sic) the occupant of the chair as an associate professor ,and(sic) holding the chair under a limited tenure."
