1996] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 457 (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Malone, Mr. Rose; no, none; absent, Mr. Mathew.) Report on Search for a Chancellor, Chicago Dr. John Solaro, chair of the search committee for a chancellor, Chicago, reported to the board on the progress of this committee. He described the work of the committee to date, presented a tentative schedule for interviewing a small group of prospects for this position, and indicated that he hoped to get a list of recommended candidates to the board early in March 1996. Report from Chancellor, Urbana Chancellor Aiken reported on the progress of searches on the Urbana campus for a dean of the College of Agriculture, Consumer and Environmental Sciences; a dean of the College of Fine and Applied Arts; and for a vice chancellor for student affairs. Report from Chancellor, Springfield Chancellor Lynn indicated that there is a search for a dean of the School of Public Affairs and Administration underway at this campus and a search for a vice chancellor for student affairs as well. Report from Interim Chancellor, Chicago Interim Chancellor Broski noted for the trustees that at the Chicago campus there are searches ongoing for a vice chancellor for student affairs and for deans of the following colleges: the Honors College, the College of Nursing, and the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs. Next, Dr. Broski reviewed plans for development of the campus land south of Roosevelt Road. He explained that in order to provide additional residence halls, academic and recreational facilities for students at the Chicago campus, a joint venture with a developer would be very helpful. He explained that this would probably necessitate the purchase of more land for such other amenities as private housing for others who are not students, such as faculty and staff and some commercial development of the area. The board members expressed interest and urged Dr. Broski to proceed with preliminary plans for such an arrangement. There was additional discussion about changes in current legislation that would be required for such a plan to progress. By consensus, the board agreed that the campus should explore and study ways to improve the campus property south of Roosevelt Road for development that would enhance the academic environment of the campus.
