Employment of Architect/Engineer, Roof Replacement, Foreign Languages Building, Urbana (40) Among renovation and repair projects for the University of Illinois to be funded through the "Build Illinois" program is the replacement of the roof of the Foreign Languages Building on the Urbana campus. This project involves removing the built-up roof and insulation down to the main deck on all three roofs (25,000 square feet), and installing a new vapor barrier, insulation, and a roofing membrane. In order to keep the project on schedule, it is desirable that the architect/ engineer be employed to complete the design at this time in order that construction contracts may be awarded next spring. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the Board of Trustees request the Capital Development Board to emply Severns, Reid 8c Associates, Inc., Champaign,
