1986] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 13 at once to divest itself of stocks in firms doing business in South Africa or maintaining operations there. He expressed the opinion that in the current state of affairs, such business operations were in jeopardy and therefore the stocks were not likely to be good investments. On motion of Mr. Howard, the resolution as presented above was approved by the following roll call vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Mr. Madden, Mrs. Shepherd, Miss Smith; no, none; absent, Governor Thompson. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Filip; no, none; absent, Mr. Starkeson.) Mr. Forsyth's vote, as noted above, is limited to the portion of the resolution prior to Section II, no. 4. Mr. Logan's vote was cast with the understanding that he did not consider the action to be a substitute for divestiture. Request to be Heard President Shepherd presented a request from the Urban League of Champaign County, signed by Executive Director Vernon Barkstall, asking that a representative of that organization be permitted to speak to the next meeting of the board at the Urbana campus. "The purpose of our presence shall be to address the issue of University of Illinois' holdings in companies doing business in and/or with South Africa." By consensus, the trustees agreed to approve the request. REGULAR AGENDA. The board considered the following reports and recommendations from the president of the University. By consensus, the board agreed that one vote would be taken and considered the vote on each agenda item nos. 6 through 21 inclusive.
