1970] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 125 of the project. Thereafter, it is anticipated that no student tuition will be required for this project. (The letter of recommendation from the Chancellor as well as reports prepared by the ad hoc Policy Committee on Community Housing Development and the Real Estate Research Corporation are being filed with the Secretary of the Board for record.) I concur and recommend approval of the proposed project as a "non-instructional facility" by the Illinois Board of Higher Education, and, if approved by the Board of Higher Education, that approval of the General Assembly be sought pursuant to House Bill 1172 enacted by the Seventy-fifth General Assembly and that an application be submitted to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development for a debt service grant. I further recommend approval of the Chancellor's proposal that the University explore the feasibility of participating directly or indirectly in the formation of not-for-profit corporations and in conjunction with state and federal funding programs develop low and moderate income housing. Such explorations would include a search for ways and means of encouraging private interests to initiate and participate in such endeavors. (The recommendation was reviewed by the Committee on Buildings and Grounds at the beginning of the November 13 meetings and was endorsed by the Committee.) On motion of Mr. Swain, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Steger, Mr. Swain, Dr. Walker; no, none; absent, Mr. Jones, Governor Ogilvie, Mr. Page, Mr. Stone. PHYSIOLOGY RESEARCH LABORATORY A D D I T I O N , URBANA (10) The Animal Genetics Division of the Animal Science Department of the College of Agriculture is requesting an expansion to existing facilities by an addition to the Physiology Research Laboratory to provide for a research program on reproductive endocrinology. T h e total cost of the project is estimated to be approximately $130,000. A Ford Foundation grant in the amount of $118,000 has been received by the University for the construction of this facility. The balance of the funds required for this project is available in the Urbana campus Rehabilitation and Alterations account. The President of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, recommends approval of this project, subject to approval of the project as a "non-instructional facility" by the State Board of Higher Education. On motion of Mr. Clement, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Steger, Mr. Swain, Dr. Walker; no, none; absent, Mr. Jones, Governor Ogilvie, Mr. Page, Mr. Stone.

URBANA (11) T h e President of the University, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the University of Illinois Foundation be requested to award a contract for purchase and installation of food service equipment for the Margaret H . and William E. Levis Faculty Center at the Urbana campus in the amount of $179,577 to Foremost-McKesson, Inc., New York, New York, acting through its Foremost-McKesson Systems Division, the low bidder, on the base bid of $199,462 less $19,885, which represents the omission of certain units of equipment as provided for in the bid documents. Funds will be provided by gifts available to the Foundation. On motion of Mr. Clement, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Steger, Mr. Swain, Dr. Walker; no, none; absent, Mr. Jones, Governor Ogilvie, Mr. Page, Mr. Stone.
