Since these increases will occur at a time when it will be difficult for the Illinois State Scholarship Commission to adjust its financial aid awards to students, it is further recommended that the University administration be authorized to waive, in part or in whole, the mid-year tuition increase for students who are current recipients of monetary awards from the ISSG. This authority is recommended for the balance of FY 1988 only. Finally, to make the income collected by this tuition increase available to the University, an appropriation by the General Assembly will be required. Therefore, authority to seek a supplemental FY 1988 appropriation from the University Income Fund commensurate with the funds to be collected from the mid-year tuition increase is recommended. I concur in these recommendations. In response to questions as to whether the recommendation is for a "permanent" or "temporary" increase in tuition, President Ikenberry assured the board that the subject would be reevaluated in the light of the financial situation of the University after the fall session of the General Assembly. H e agreed to amend his recommendation as follows: " I concur in these recommendations, subject to reevaluation after the fall 1987 session of the General Assembly." O n motion of Miss Smith, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. H a h n , Mr. Howard, Mr. Logan, Mrs. Shepherd, Miss Smith, Mr. Wolff; no, none; absent, Governor Thompson. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, M r . Evenson, Mr. Wylie; no, none.) Urbana-Champaign campus

1 Proportional rate increases will be made for part-time students, for nonresidents, and for correspondence and extramural courses to continue policies which are now in place for these categories. * The mid-year increase of $150 per semester at Urbana-Champaign represents an annual rate increase of $300; the increase of £75 per quarter at Chicago will become $100 per quarter after FY 1988, making the annual rate increase $300 for Chicago as well.
