414 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [October 20 BUSINESS PRESENTED BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY The Board considered the following reports and recommendations from the President of the University. PRESIDENT'S REPORT President Corbally presented a report on selected topics of current interest, copies of which were distributed at the meeting, and a copy was filed with the Secretary of the Board. A N N U A L OPERATING BUDGET FOR 1 9 7 1 - 7 2 (1) The budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1971, is submitted herewith, including recommendations for: (a) academic and administrative appointments beginning September 1, 1971; and (b) appointments to the nonacademic personnel staff beginning July 1, 1971. Authorization to pay salaries and wages for nonacademic and academic personnel for the month of July and subsequent payrolls was granted by the Board of Trustees on June 16, 1971, and July 21, 1971. The funds appropriated by the Seventy-seventh General Assembly to the University of Illinois for all purposes for Fiscal Year (FY) 1972 are summarized, with comparative figures for FY 1971. The budget has been prepared by the Executive Vice President and Provost and the Vice President and Comptroller, based upon recommendations of: (a) the Chancellors at the three campuses (after consultation with their respective deans, directors, and other campus administrative officers); and (b) general University officers concerning the budgets for University-wide offices. The allocation of funds follows policies and assignments recommended by the University Budget Committee1 during the preparation of the University's FY 1972 budget request. Submitted herewith is the budget document containing: (a) a Condensed Analysis,3 which outlines the income anticipated for FY 1972 and describes the changes in the budget; (b) Schedules A through I,2 which contain summaries of income and appropriations for the entire University and budget totals by major categories for each campus; and (c) summaries for each college or other major administrative unit.' Also submitted are four supplemental volumes* (two for Urbana-Champaign and general University units, and one each for the other campuses) presenting budget details for departments, divisions, and other operating units. I recommend that this budget, covering the allocation of the presently estimated operating income from all sources for the year beginning July 1, 1971, be approved by the Board, and that the President of the University be authorized, in accordance with the needs of the University and the equitable interests involved, and within total income: (a) to accept resignations; (b) to make such additional appointments as are necessary subject to the provisions of the University Statutes and the Policy and Rules — Nonacademic; and (c) to make such changes and adjustments in items included in the budget as are needed. All such changes are to be covered in the Vice President and Comptroller's quarterly financial reports, or in reports to the Board by its Secretary. President Corbally reviewed the background of this subject in some detail, summarizing the authorizations requested and indicating that the current state of the question of salary increases was uncertain, in that final action by the Legislature had not yet been taken. He made clear that if additional funds for personal services are available, supplemental recommendations for the allocation of these funds would be 1 University Budget Committee: Lyle H. Lanier, Executive Vice President and Provost, Chairman; William F. Sager, Professor of Chemistry and Head of the Department (Chicago Circle); Joseph S.
