1957] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 26l and the Vice-President and Comptroller recommend that the Board of Trustees reaffirm the following existing rules for the Urbana-Champaign campus: 1. All single undergraduate students under twenty-three years of age must live in University residence halls, fraternities, sororities, or private homes which are certified by the University as to physical standards, or with relatives in or near Urbana-Champaign. This rule shall be waived as to junior and senior men as long as the number of certified facilities in the community is inadequate. 2. No single undergraduate student may live in an apartment, unsupervised house, or sleeping room in a house in which there are apartments, without special permission. No single undergraduate women may live in houses or homes accommodating graduate students, except in the summer. 3. Exceptions to the above rules may be made only on written permission from the Housing Division. The Dean of Students shall have the authority to establish policies for granting special permission and shall have final judgment in any case referred to him by the Housing Division or by a student. No student shall enter into an oral or written contractual agreement which constitutes an exception to the above regulation until written special permission has been granted. 4. The University reserves the right to assign students who apply for University housing to any residence hall in which there is a vacancy. Priority for reassignment in the same hall is given to present occupants if their applications are received before a deadline specified by the Housing Division. 5. The Dean of Students shall be responsible for assigning space in all residence halls. 6. If more space should be available in housing units operated by the University than the number of applications received, all residence halls or other housing units on which there is outstanding indebtedness or fixed rental agreements with outside parties shall be filled first. T o the maximum extent feasible, assignments in such halls shall be made in such a manner that the debt service on each project shall be met. 7. No assignments will be made to University temporary housing facilities when it appears that permanent residence halls will not be filled to 95 per cent of capacity. 8. Students who apply only for space in University cooperative houses shall not be required to transfer to permanent residence halls if vacancies occur in the latter. I concur. On motion of Mr. Swain, this recommendation was approved; Mr. Herrick did not vote on the motion. IMPLEMENTATION O F UNIVERSITY S T A T U T E S (5) The revised University Statutes, approved by the Board of Trustees on January 16, 1957, will become effective September I, 1957, and will supersede all previous versions of corresponding statutes. Division II, Legislative Organization, provides for a University Senate at each campus of the University: the Urbana-Champaign Senate, the Chicago Professional Colleges Senate, and the Chicago Undergraduate Division Senate. The present University Senate and its committees will function until September 1, 1957. It will be necessary for the three successor Senates to organize, appoint committees, and elect representatives on the University Council and on the Senate Coordinating Council in order to function, and unless this is accomplished prior to September 1, '957, there could be an awkward period during which the University would be without any educational legislative organization. Accordingly, I recommend that the Board authorize the President of the University to call special meetings of the separate Senates at Urbana, the Chicago Professional Colleges, and the Undergraduate Division in Chicago, before September 1, 1957, for the purpose of organizing these respective Senates, the appointment of committees, and the taking of other necessary actions Preparatory to setting up these respective bodies for the doing of business on - September 1, 1957. On motion of Mrs. Watkins, authority was granted as requested.
