1969] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 367 At the Commencement Exercises at Urbana-Champaign on June 14,1969 WILLIAM L. EVERITT, Engineer; Dean, Emeritus, the Degree of Doctor of Science F. WHEELER LOOMIS, Physicist; Professor, Emeritus, the Degree of Doctor of Science J. L. L U S H , Professor of Animal Science at Iowa State University, the Degree of Doctor of Science JAMES TOBIN, Economist, Yale University, the Degree of Doctor of Laws I concur in this recommendation of the Senate. O n m o t i o n of M r . H a h n , t h e s e d e g r e e s w e r e a u t h o r i z e d a s r e c o m mended. REVISION O F UNIVERSITY S T A T U T E S : PRIVILEGES O F S T U D E N T MEMBERS O F S E N A T E COMMITTEES (8) On November 22, 1968, the Board approved provisionally an amendment to the University Statutes to provide for student membership on Senate committees and for Senate floor and voting privileges for such student members of Senate committees. In accord with procedures for amending the Statutes, the advice of the Senates has been sought and received prior to submitting to the Board a recommendation for final action on the amendment. In its action of November 22, the Board approved provisionally the amendment of the Statutes by the addition of the following new language to Section 6 (b) : The Senate may provide for student representation on its committees, and student members shall have Senate floor and voting privileges on matters relating to the action of the committees on which they serve unless the Senate otherwise provides. Subsequently, the Senates at Urbana and at the Medical Center campus have approved the amendment as submitted to them. Chicago Circle Senate has approved a version with a few changes in wording and the Senate Coordinating Council has recommended approval of the Chicago Circle version, which is as follows: The Senate may provide for student representation on its committees, and student committee members so selected shall have Senate floor and voting privileges on matters relating to the action of the committees on which they serve unless the Senate provides otherwise in its by-laws and standing rules. Obviously, the changes suggested are in the direction of clarification of the intent of the original version: that the Senates' discretion govern both the provision for student membership on committees and the means of making that determination. Accordingly, I recommend that the Trustees give final approval to the amendment as recommended by the Chicago Circle Senate and the Senate Coordinating Council. On motion of Mr. Clement, this recommendation and the proposed revision to Section 6 of the University of Illinois Statutes were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Jones, Mr. Pogue, Mr. Swain; no, none; absent, Mr. Hughes, Governor Ogilvie, Mr. Page, Mr. Steger, Dr. Weatherly. CHANGE IN NAME OF EAST DENTISTRY-MEDICINE-PHARMACY BUILDING, MEDICAL CENTER (9) The Chancellor at the Medical Center campus recommends that the name of the East Dentistry-Medicine-Pharmacy Building be changed to College of Pharmacy Building. Neither the College of Medicine nor the College of Dentistry is assigned space in the building. The proposed name is accurately descriptive of the primary function of the building. Although a limited number of other offices are located in the building, the College of Pharmacy occupies the majority of the space. I concur. On motion of Mr. Pogue, this recommendation was approved.
