1974] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 555 During the last year, in an attempt to achieve more coordinated purchasing for all of higher education, common procurement practices have been under development by the senior institutions — a purchasing division of IECCS (Illinois Educational Consortium for Computer Services) has been created, and some commodities have been tentatively identified for statewide procurement. Actions relating to these developments will be before this Board in the near future. In order that the Univerity may continue in the forefront of these worthwhile developments, the Vice President for Planning and Allocation recommends that Mr. Lester E. Elliott be designated as the University Director of Purchasing, to continue his present coordinating role and to take a leadership position for the University in the developing statewide efforts — efforts which are being promoted by a number of state agencies, as well as the Joint Council on Higher Education. From these efforts, the University anticipates savings and better procurement practices. This action does not require new resources; it is a realignment of existing funds and personnel. I concur. On motion of M r . Swain, this position was authorized and the appointment was approved. HEADSHIP OF T H E DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES.
