1992] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 581 In order to provide for better coordination and communications with related research programs located on the second floor, the Disease Etiology1 program is being relocated to the second floor. Rooms 248 and 252, which were originally programmed for Glycene Studies (also related to the adjoining research programs) and which the College of Agriculture now desires to leave in Turner Hall, are being remodeled to accommodate the Disease Etiology program. Proposals for the cost to remodel these rooms have been received from the general contractor, Ore W. Vacketta & Sons, Inc., Danville, and the electrical contractor, Coleman Electrical Service, Inc., Mansfield, in the amounts of $84,789 and $26,139, respectively. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends, subject to U.S. Department of Agriculture approval, that the contract for general work and the contract for electrical work be increased by $84,789 and $26,139, respectively, for the work described. Funds will be provided by a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Downey, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Reese, Mrs. Shepherd; no, none; absent, Mr. Boyle, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Caporusso, Mr. Mitchell; no, none.) Increase in Contract, West Stairwell Addition, North Building, lllini Union, Urbana (30) The Auxiliary Facilities System Repair and Replacement Program proposed for Fiscal Year 1993 includes a $420,000 project for the addition of a stairwell on the west wing of the north building of the lllini Union, Urbana, which is now required by current building code. In October 1991, the firm of The Troyer Group, Mishawaka, Indiana, was employed to provide the professional services necessary through the schematic design phase of the project. It is now necessary to employ the architect/engineer for the professional services required through the receipt of bids for the project. The firm's fee will be a fixed fee of $43,000 plus authorized reimbursements. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that The Troyer Group, Mishawaka, Indiana, be employed through the receipt of bids for the west wing stairwell addition project in the lllini Union on the basis of a fixed fee of $43,000 plus authorized reimbursements. Upon receipt of satisfactory bids, the Board of Trustees will be requested to approve contracts for construction and the employment of the firm for services during the construction phase. Funds are available from the Auxiliary Facilities System Replacement and Reserve Fund. On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Downey, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Reese, Mrs. Shepherd; no, none; absent, Mr. Boyle, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Ms. Caporusso, Mr. Mitchell; no, none.) 1 Disease etiology is the study of the causes of diseases; in this case, the diseases studied relate primarily to soybeans.
