CONTRACT FOR SERVICES, CHICAGO CIRCLE (13) For several months, a special task force has been preparing for the initiation of a program leading to the Master's Degree in Urban Planning and Policy in the College of Urban Sciences at the Chicago Circle campus. The program was approved by the Board of Higher Education in September, 1972. Instrumental in the work of the task force has been Andrew L. Bavas, Assistant Regional Director for Planning and Evaluation of Region V of the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Because of Mr. Bavas's contribution to the work of the task force and his education and experience, the Chancellor at the Chicago Circle campus now proposes to negotiate with HEW for his services for a period of two years as the first director of the program. The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare is willing to assign Mr. Bavas in this capacity under the Intergovernmental Personnel Act of 1970 for two years dating from April 1, 1973. While on this assignment he will have the usual duties and responsibilities of an academic employee of the University. To signify its concern for the success of the program, the Department of HEW will make his services available to the University at fifty-one per cent of his salary, the Department contributing the remainder. With the concurrence of the Vice President for Academic Development and Coordination, I recommend that the Chancellor at the Chicago Circle campus be authorized to negotiate an agreement along these lines. On motion of Mrs. Rader, authority was given as recommended. CONTRACT W I T H SHIMER COLLEGE, CHICAGO CIRCLE (14) Shimer College, a private institution of higher education located at Mount Carroll, Illinois, has proposed a cooperative agreement with The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, under which Shimer College students, usually in junior or senior status but occasionally, in special cases, an individual haying sophomore status, would be permitted to take courses at the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle to broaden and expand their curriculum opportunities. Chicago Circle campus administrative officers are agreeable to this proposal, provided that such students meet normal and customary admission standards at the Chicago Circle campus and that space is available for them. Accordingly, a contract has been negotiated, subject to Board of Trustees approval, providing for such cooperation. Under the proposed contract, Shimer College students attending the Chicago Circle campus would be treated basically as all other students there with the exception that they would not be billed individually for tuition and fees, but that a charge would be made to Shimer College for each student so attending, the charge to be based on the Chicago Circle campus standard schedule of tuition and fees for Illinois residents. This arrangement 1 Copies are filed with the Secretary of the Board.
