1991] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 217 Memorandum of Understanding between the Wesley Foundation at the University of Illinois and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Report for Information) (18) T h e Wesley Foundation and the University of Illinois have a long-standing cooperative relationship that aids the Wesley Foundation in carrying out its mission and helps to meet the needs of many persons in the University community. Since Wesley Foundation and University properties are adjacent to each other in the area encompassed by the Central Campus Master Plan, it is important for each party to keep the other informed about plans for construction or changes in parking, and automobile, pedestrian, and bicycle circulation. Meetings between Wesley Foundation officers and University planners have resulted in a memorandum of understanding about these matters which provides that it may be reviewed at any time upon the request of either party and mandates a review every five years. T h e chancellor at Urbana has indicated that this memorandum will serve as a regular means of focusing attention upon the need for mutual cooperation as the Central Campus Master Plan is used to guide the development of the Urbana-Champaign campus in the years ahead. I am pleased to call this memorandum of understanding to the board's attention. (A copy of the memorandum is filed with the secretary of the board for record.) This report was received for record. President's Report on Actions of the Senates Change of Name and Restructuring of the Undergraduate Applied Theatre Curriculum, College of Fine and Applied Arts, Urbana (19) T h e Urbana-Champaign Senate has approved a change in the name of the undergraduate Applied Theatre Curriculum to Performance Studies. At the same time, the program is revised to eliminate the two options (Option 1: Directing, Playwriting, or Children's Theatre; Option 2: General Studies or History and Criticism) and substitute a single list of required theatre courses. T h e revised program will assure breadth through specification of a list of supporting coursework from which 12 hours must be chosen. This program lays the undergraduate groundwork for students planning to pursue careers in theatre history and criticism, directing, playwriting, and dramatizing — areas in which specialization at the graduate level is normally required. Hence, the name "applied theatre" is inappropriate since no intensive, studio-based course of study is involved. T h e change in name better reflects the content of the curriculum, and does not reflect any shift in its mission. There are no budgetary implications. Establishment of a Minor in Sociology, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Urbana T h e Urbana-Champaign Senate has approved the establishment of a Minor in Sociology in the Sciences and Letters Curriculum, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
