1969] UNIVERSITY O F I L L I N O I S 689 the formula, he said that the University Budget Committee had not thought it advisable to do so. The Provost reviewed the pattern of internal review of the request for operations, including salaries, indicating that faculty involvement is obtained through the budget committees of each of the campus Senates and through faculty representation on the University Budget Committee. H e stated that the subject of across-the-board increases in salaries was considered by the University Budget Committee for 1969-70 but was rejected. The Trustees then considered the agenda item before them and the requests of Dr. Pappademos. It was the consensus of the Board that the first two requests had been answered in the discussion and could not be granted; that the third — relating to automatic increases in the future — could not be acted upon at this time. By consensus, the Board agreed (1) to reflect to the Board of Higher Education through its representative (Mr. Clement) the concern in the minds of some faculty that the formula for requests for salary increases does not meet faculty needs and that the University of Illinois' position with regard to salary levels by rank, when compared with institutions with whom it must compete, has represented in recent years a "holding action" and that further improvement is necessary; and (2) that the President and Chancellors convey to the faculty at all campuses that the Board of Trustees shares the general unease at the present level of salaries during a period of rapidly rising prices. It was pointed out that an official response to Dr. Pappademos and his associates would be inappropriate, inasmuch as the Board of Trustees is not in a position of negotiation with the American Federation of Teachers.
