BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[October 15

Mr. H a h n moved approval of the recommendation as presented. Student Trustees Evenson and Wylie expressed their view that in this recommendation (and in other items of record) the language added to the tuition action of September, i.e., "subject to reevaluation after the fall session of the General Assembly," be added to the present recommendation. T h e president and several trustees dissented, on the ground that the addition would limit flexibility and would be confusing. President Howard called for a voice vote on the Evenson-Wylie amendment which failed, Mrs. Gravenhorst voting "yes," and the two student members casting advisory votes for it. T h e remaining members of the board voted against it. O n motion of Mr. H a h n , the main recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. H a h n , Mr. Howard, Mrs. Shepherd, Miss Smith, Mr. Wolff; no, none; absent, Mr. Logan, Governor Thompson. ( T h e student advisory vote was: Aye, none; no, Mr. Wylie. Mr. Evenson asked to be recorded as not casting an advisory vote.) By consensus, the board agreed that one vote would be taken and considered the vote on each agenda item nos. 5 through 15 inclusive. T h e recommendations were individually discussed but acted upon at one time. ( T h e record of board action appears at the end of each item.) Award of Certified Public Accountant Certificates

( 5 ) T h e Committee on Accountancy recommends that the certificate of certified public accountant be awarded under Section 5 of the Illinois Public Accounting Act of 1983 to 11 candidates who have presented evidence that they are holders of valid and unrevoked certified public accountant certificates obtained by passing the uniform written examination in another state or territory of the United States and who qualify in all other respects under this provision of the law. The names of the candidates are filed with the secretary. T h e Committee on Accountancy, pursuant to Section 1300.160(d) of the Regulations, also recommends that the certificate of certified public accountant be awarded to 21 candidates who wish to transfer the examination credit earned by passing the uniform written examination in another state and who have fulfilled all other legal requirements under Sections 1, 2, and 3 of the Illinois Public Accounting Act of 1983. T h e names of the candidates are filed with the secretary. I concur in these recommendations.

O n motion of Mr. Wolff, these certificates were awarded. Head, Department of Pathology, College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign

Williams as head of the Department of Pathology, on 20 percent time, and professor of pathology (clinical), on indefinite tenure, on zero percent time, in the College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign, effective October 21, 1987, on a twelve-month service basis at an annual salary of $18,000.
