Report from President on Chancellor Search, Chicago President Stukel reported on the search procedure for a chancellor for the Chicago campus. He noted that the first meeting of the search committee was to be September 14, 1995. He said that he would meet with the committee and deliver the charge to seek widely and recommend several well-qualified candidates to him for this position. He said that Professor John Solaro was the chair of the committee and that Professor Solaro would be reporting directly to the trustees periodically during this process. 1 Prior to this, the Committee on the University Hospital and Clinics received a report from Dr. R. K. Dieter Haussmann, vice chancellor for health services, Chicago campus, that included information on the patient drawing area for the hospital and clinics, indicating that this group would be the target for conversion to a reorganized University of Illinois Health Maintenance Organization that is planned, discussion centered on the formation of the reorganized H M O and the enrollment needed for optimum research and teaching. Discussion was focused on gaining assurances that the University as a whole would be protected from liability if such a new entity were formed. Also discussed was the formation of a separate advisory committee to the chancellor of the Chicago campus for the University Hospital. T h e complexity of hospital governance was cited as the major reason that this is necessary. A performance report on the hospital was also presented. This was quite good for the quarter just past. In addition, an update on the status of operations and the budget for the Mile square Health Center was provided. T h e budget for this unit has been reduced significantly, chiefly by staff reductions. T h e Committee on Buildings and Grounds received a report from Associate Vice President Robert K. Todd. He reviewed a master plan for providing cnilled water to University facilities at Chicago and at Urbana-Champaign and then turned to representatives of Perkins and Will, Architects 8c Engineers, for a presentation of a model of the Ambulatory Care facility planned for the Chicago campus. On motion of Ms. Reese and by consensus of the committee members, it was agreed that the plan for this facility be placed on the board's agenda for a vote the next day.
