University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Faculty Council. Established Lectures Committee.

The Established Lectures Committee was created in 1946 as the All University Committee on Convocations and Lectures and was given the responsibilities of the earlier, separate Weil and McNair Lecture Committees. Other duties included distributing funds provided by the Alumni Giving Council to the academic departments and schools for alumni lectures. In 1949 the committee's name changed to Committee on Established Lectures. A standing committee of the faculty, it was appointed by the chancellor to select speakers and make arrangements for the John Calvin McNair Lectures, which focus on science and human values; the Martin Luther King, Jr., Lectures on Human Rights; and the Weil Lectures on American Citizenship. In April 1999 the Faculty Council abolished the committee and voted to assign responsibility for the three lectures to other offices.
