Negotiations with Seventh World Wheelchair Games, Urbana (24) For several months, officers at the Urbana-Champaign campus have been negotiating to hold the Seventh World Wheelchair Games on the campus from June 19 through July 4, 1984. By custom, the games are held in the same country and in the same year as the Olympic Games; the year 1984 marks the first time that the games are to be held in the United States. They are managed and directed by V I I World Wheelchair Games, Inc., a corporate entity operating under the aegis of the National Wheelchair Athletic Association, a member of the U.S. Olympic Committee. Some 3,000 to 4,000 participants, representing 60 countries, are expected to attend. In accord with the discussions, the University would provide housing and meals in University residence halls, local ground transportation, facilities (fields, courts, and pools) for the competition, the use of facilities and services at McKinley Health Center and the Rehabilitation-Education Center, traffic control, parking, and other ancillary services. In addition, certain physical improvements would be made. Office space for the planning and management of the games also would be provided. T h e University would be reimbursed fully for all out-of-pocket expenditures and for any extraordinary expenses (such as a wheelchair ramp for Memorial Stadium). Excess revenue from the games would be placed in a trust fund for the support of wheelchair athletics in the United States. Professor Timothy J. Nugent, director of the Division of RehabilitationEducation Services, has agreed to serve as full-time executive director for the games. During this assignment, his salary and fringe benefits would be paid by V I I World Wheelchair Games, Inc. A host committee of University staff, community, business, and government leaders would assist with the management of the games. T h e parties are now engaged in the final stages of negotiating a contract between V I I World Wheelchair Games, Inc., and the University. T h e chancellor has recommended: (1) approval in principle of the University's role in the holding of these games; and (2) authorization to complete the negotiations, with the understanding that the contract will be presented for action by the Board of Trustees later this year. The vice president for business and finance concurs. I recommend approval. On motion of Dr. Donoghue, these recommendations were approved.
