20 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [July 10 T h e proposals have been reviewed by the members of the committee on administrative leaves which recommends approval. (These leaves are supplementary to the applications recommended to the board on April 10, 1986.) DONALD BMELAND, dean of the Jane Addams College of Social Work and professor in the school since September 1, 1981, has requested leave for the period September 1-December 31, 1986. He will update earlier research on social insurance and related benefits, including legal developments, in order to assess the effect of economic and social changes in the past decade on legislation in Sweden, England, France, and West Germany. NICHOLAS MORAVCEVICH, director of campus development in the Office of the Chancellor since November 1, 1981, and before that professor of Slavic languages and literatures, since 1971, and head of the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, 1968-1981. H e has requested leave for the period September 16-December 15, 1986. He will do research and instructional planning in the area of comparative Slavic studies in preparation for return to teaching. On motion of Mr. Madden, these leaves were granted as recommended. Redesignation of the Bachelor of Science Degree Titles, College of Engineering, Chicago (15) T h e Chicago Senate has recommended the redesignation of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering and the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Science as the Bachelor of Science in the appropriate engineering major, e.g., Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (see table). In 1980, the College of Engineering, Chicago, began to reorganize its departmental structure and degree programs along traditional engineering disciplines. T h e process culminated during the 1984-85 academic year when the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) reviewed and accredited, or reaccredited, the college's programs. T h e proposed redesignation of the degree titles to include the major field will reflect the traditional disciplines and is in keeping with the practice of other engineering colleges throughout the United States. T h e chancellor at the Chicago campus and the vice president for academic affairs recommend approval. T h e University Senates Conference has indicated no further senate jurisdiction is involved. I concur, subject to further action by the Illinois Board of Higher Education. On motion of Mr. Madden, this recommendation was approved.
