446 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [February 24 MATTERS PRESENTED BY ACTING PRESIDENT DANIELS The Board considered the following matters presented by the Acting President of the University. FEDERAL F U N D S FOR EMPLOYMENT OF STUDENTS (1) Early in February word was received from the United States Commissioner of Education that all state emergency relief administrations have been authorized to make relief funds available for part-time employment of college students from February 2, 1934, to the end of the current academic year, but not including the Summer Session of 1934, under certain conditions. The University of Illinois promptly applied for funds and its application has been approved. Under the federal regulations the University may give employment to as many as 990 students (representing ten per cent of the full-time enrollment as of October 15, 1933) at an average of fifteen dollars per month per student. The maximum any student may receive is twenty dollars per month and the minimum is ten dollars. Under the federal regulations work may be given only to students whose financial status is such as to make impossible their attendance in college without aid, who are of good character, who possess such ability as to give assurance that they will do high-grade work at college, and the jobs must be allocated between men and women in proportion to the enrollment of each. A committee was appointed to administer the use of these funds, and the various departments of the University have submitted projects of various kinds which meet the federal requirements and on which students are being employed. This report was received for record. SUMMER SESSION STAFF 1934 (2) A recommendation for the approval of the following appointments to the Summer Session staff for 1934, the positions and salaries being indicated in each case; and a request for authority to make such adjustments in the Summer Session budget and such additional appointments as may be necessary. The work of teaching in the Summer Session is additional service not contemplated in the appointment of members of the teaching staff for service during the regular academic year, and it therefore necessitates additional compensation as shown in each case. Provision has been made in the budget for 1933-1934 for the work of the 1934 Summer Session. On motion of Mr. Trees, this budget was approved, and authority was granted as requested.
