226 BOARD O F T R U S T E E S [May 19 The president also discussed the current status of the University budget and tax legislation in the General Assembly. He described as encouraging his appearance before the full Senate and meetings widi the Speaker of the House and others. He has noted a heartening and growing understanding of the need to improve the State's financial situation in general and support for higher education in particular. He called attention to the coincidental issuance, within recent weeks, of a number of national studies drawing attention to the problems and opportunities for education and contributing to the current climate of support. He expressed cautious optimism that die Governor's tax proposal, or something approximating it, ultimately would be enacted. If this occurs, the University would receive significant assistance. REGULAR AGENDA The board considered the following reports and recommendations from the president of the University. Dean, College of Medicine (1) T h e chancellor at Chicago has recommended the appointment of Dr. Phillip M. Forman as dean of the College of Medicine effective May 19, 1983, on a twelvemonth service basis, at an annual salary of $105,000. Dr. Forman is presently dean of the College of Medicine at Chicago, professor of clinical neurology and of health professions education on indefinite tenure, and professor of clinical pediatrics. He will retain his academic appointments.
