a routine matter. T h e Colleges of Medicine and Liberal Arts and Sciences have a combined program leading to the Bachelor of Science degree if the student takes certain prescribed courses and this degree is available to students who do not wish to earn a degree before entering the College of Medicine. I concur. O n m o t i o n of M r s . W a t k i n s , this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n w a s a p p r o v e d . S T U D E N T FEES (8) In considering the University's operating budget for 1957-59, the Governor and the Illinois Budgetary Commission have anticipated revenue from tuition in an amount which would require an increase in rate. An increase in the nonresident fee was previously approved by the Board. T h e original budget request of the University was based on an estimated increase in income of $1,873,250. This amount will come chiefly from the increased charge to out-of'State students and the increased number of in-state students. The present recommendation to increase tuition will add approximately $800,000 to this figure, for a total increase of about $2,600,000. The total University income in the state budget will therefore be approximately $12,000,000. At this point it should also be noted that the program for the construction of buildings to be financed through revenue from student fees will require an increase in charges to students of $40 a year, beginning in the fall of 1959. The total increase in charges to students now programmed is therefore $60 a year. The University Budget Committee and the Committee on Fees and Scholarships recommend that effective in September, 1957, the resident tuition for fulltime schedules be increased $10 each semester at Urbana-Champaign and the Chicago Undergraduate Division; $6 each quarter at the Chicago Professional Colleges; and that the resident tuition fee charged for partial schedules be increased in proportion. I concur in this recommendation. T h e Committee on Fees and Scholarships has prepared a complete schedule of all fees reflecting the changes in the fee structure authorized by the Board in recent years and the increases now being recommended, together with some minor adjustments for the sake of consistency and uniformity. I recommend adoption of the following schedule.

On motion of Mr. Bissell, these recommendations were approved.
