1983] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 205 housing research and development — "Development of an International Extension Program in Comparative Urban and Regional Planning Systems" The chancellor at Urbana-Champaign and the vice president for academic affairs have recommended that awards of $1,000 be made for each of the projects noted above.

I recommend approval. On motion of Dr. Donoghue, this degree was authorized as recommended. Tuition Increases for Fiscal Year 1984 (16) On March 16, 1983, the Board of Trustees reviewed background material related to current tuition levels and to the need for additional tuition increases in the coming year. The review indicated that, while tuition revenue is in no way a substitute for responsible State support, it is an essential segment of the financial base of the University. Consistent with the presentation to the board in March, the following table displays tuition increases proposed for Fiscal Year 1984. The increases have two objectives: (1) to match the 10 percent increases beyond FY 1983 tuition rates for all student levels as recommended by the Illinois Board of Higher Education, and encompassed in that board's original FY 1984 budget recommendation; and (2) to restore the percentage tuition differentials among student levels which were in place at the beginning of FY 1983. (The mid-year tuition increase of the current year was implemented on an across-the-board basis, thereby compressing the differentials by level.) In accord with the presentation in March, summarized in the accompanying table, I recommend that the Board of Trustees act to establish tuition levels for FY 1984 as follows: 1. Approve a tuition increase of 10 percent of beginning FY 1983 tuition levels for all students. 2. Approve differential tuition increases, beyond the 10-percent general increase, to restore initial FY 1983 differentials among the various student levels, as follows: a. $38 for upper-division undergraduate students b. $68 for graduate students c. $90 for students in law d. $370 for students in medicine e. $208 for students in dentistry f. $ 194 for students in veterinary medicine 3. Approve proportional increases, as appropriate, for part-time students, for nonresident students, and for correspondence and extramural courses to continue policies that now exist. In addition to those increases, a fee of $10 (Chicago)
