EXECUTIVE ORDER
Executive Order No. I I: A University Clearing House for Theses, Dissertations, and Graduate Sllccialand ~la}or Term Papers in the Main Library
In order ro promote and coordinate research and to prevent cases of plagiarism as '....ell as failure to acknowledge sources of ideas, findings. erc., in the University, it is herebv directed that:
1. All academic units provide the Main Library and the College concerned with a copy of the proposed outline [or the thesis or dissertation immediately after approval so that adequate bibliographical service can be rendered to researchers and graduate students. This would also pre- vent duplication of research except under exceptional con.
dirions where such duplication is considered. valid and justifiable.
2. Copies of the titles of special papers and major term papers containing the name of the student, college, etc.
should be submitted to the Main Library and College Ii- brary concerned through a form to be developed by the Main Library, which faculty members may distribute to their students. This would facilitate indexing and, eventual- ly, the development of a computerized system of storing and retrieving data.
3. In this connection there is already a continuing union list of all theses approved in all Philippine universities It is proposed that each academic unit, offering graduate courses be provided with at least one copy of this union list.
4. Heads of units direct that there be inter-unit and intra- unit communication on research topics not only to prevent unnecessary duplication, but more importantly, to coordi- nate research efforts within the University.
These arc preliminary measures toward the establishment of a national dearing-house for research undertaken by local or for- eign scholars either through the NSDB or the University of the Philippines System. or both in collaboration. For this, a dam bank would be essential. Similar agencies are already operating in Thailand and Indonesia. Researchers are required to inform such agencies of the purpose and nature of their studies and. in the case of foreign researchers, to leave copies of their raw data and submit a copy of the final report before leaving the coun- try. Such a system would result in more integrated and coordi- nared research on the Philippines and would make related lite- rature more readily accessible to scholars.

Teaching Duties of Faculty
This Office has received information to the effect that some faculty members delegate their reaching duties to graduate office assistants on days when they are unable to report for work. This practice, if allowed to continue, is bound to affect adversely the quality of teaching which the University offers to students, It must therefore be stopped immediately,
Office assistants are hired to do office work, nor reaching.
We would re-emphasize, in this connection, the primacy of the teaching function among the responsibilities of professors.
This is a function that cannot be rreared lightly.
Deans of all units and chairmen of departments ",re therefore enjoined to adopt necessary measures to ensure that the teaching responsibilities of your unit or department are met efficiently and responsibly.

CREATION AND CHANGE IN NAME OF DEPARTMENTS IN COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
The Board approved the creation of one department and the change in nameof another in theCollegeof Agriculture. Univer- sity of the Philippines at los Banos, as follows:
(1) Creation of the Department of Horticulture from the pre- sent Division of Horticulture, Department of Agronomy, to becomposedof four (4) divisions, namely: fruit crops, plantation crops, ornamental crops and vegetable crops, which altogether will work on 12 fields of specialization.
Horticulture in the Philippines has emerged as a viable field ofagriculture. At present, the coconut, abaca, banana, mango and pineapple industries contribute very subsran- riallv ro rhedomestic income and foreign earnings, while rhe vegetable crops are starting to fill the protein and other nutritional needs of the people. The flower and ornamental cropsare likewise beginning to make aesthetic impact on the Philippine landscape.
The proposed Department of Horticulture has a strong academic staff composed of 13 Ph.D., 12 M.S. and 6 B.S.
degree holders. The department's annual research budget amounts to cbour P70D,OOO.QO. It offers 9 undergraduate courses, 5 undergraduate-graduate and 9 graduate courses.
(2) Change in the name of the present Department of Agricul- tural Communications to Department of Development Cooim nnicntion-
The above change would make the dcpanmcnc's name coneruenr with its present curricular offering in M.S. in development communication and with the change in title of its undergraduate program to B.S. in development communication. This will likewise Ip.gitimize the dircc- tion that the department bas been taking in the past vears. Its present teaching, rcesarch and extension activ- ities cover not only communication situations in agricu l- mrc but nlso ill family planning, ccmmuuirv health
