1972] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS A M E N D M E N T O F STATUTES TO PROVIDE PROCEDURES FOR N O N R E A P P O I N T M E N T O F PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES OF THE UNIVERSITY 63 (12) For some years there has been concern on the part of the administration that the group of employees of the University generally characterized as "professional" be given adequate protection in situations of termination other than for due cause. Presently the Statutes of the University provide no such protection. These employees comprise a group for whom the provisions of Section 40 of the University Statutes (mainly relating to faculty) and the rules of the University Civil Service System of Illinois are inapplicable. _ In order to provide a degree of equity analogous to that afforded other University employees, I recommend that the following addition to Section 38, "Principles Governing Employment of Academic and Administrative Staffs," of the University of Illinois Statutes1 be provisionally approved, with the stipulation that the Trustees defer final approval until the present action has been reported to the Senates and to the University Senates Conference — and because of the subject matter of this recommendation, to the professional advisory committee (or similar body) on each campus for their information and advice. Section 38 (e) In the nonreappointment of a full-time employee for whom procedures under Section 40 of these Statutes, or under the rules of the University Civil Service System of Illinois, are not applicable: written notice of nonreappointment shall be given not later than March 1 preceding the end of the appointment year. The "appointment year" in all cases shall be construed to begin as of September 1 and to end on August 31, requiring either nine-months or twelve-months service. If such notice is given later than March 1 in an appointment year, it shall be accompanied by an offer from the Board of Trustees of a terminal contract for an additional one-half of the next appointment year. Notice of nonreappointment is not required for employees in the above categories whose current appointments are without salary or are conditional upon receipt of nonappropriated funds, e.g., grant or contract funds. Excepted from the above provisions are the following administrative officers: the President of the University; the chancellors and vice chancellors; the officers of the Board of Trustees who are University employees, and those others who are designated by the President as "general officers" of the University; the deans, directors, heads and chairmen of academic units. O n motion of M r . Swain, the proposed addition to Section 38 of the University Statutes was provisionally approved by the following vote: Aye, M r . H o w a r d , M r . Hughes, Mr. Neal, M r . Pogue, Mr. Steger, M r . S w a i n ; no, M r . Forsyth, Mr. H a h n ; absent, D r . Bakalis, Governor Ogilvie. CONTRACTS FOR EDUCATIONAL SERVICES. PEORIA SCHOOL OF MEDICINE (13) On June 17, 1970, the Board of Trustees established the Peoria School of Medicine of the University of Illinois College of Medicine. On June 16, 1971, a document of affiliation between the Peoria School of Medicine, the Peoria Board for Medical Education, Inc., and five established health care institutions in the Peoria community was approved. The affiliation agreement anticipated the interweaving of the resources of the University with the resources in the Peoria community to achieve the common goals of conducting programs of medical education, improving the quality and delivery of health care services, conducting research in health and health-related fields, and responding to other health-related needs of the community. The affiliation agreement provides that costs related to patient care are the responsibility of the institutions (hospitals); costs related to medical education are a responsibility of the University of Illinois; and the division of financial responsibility is to be agreed upon in advance. In accordance with the affiliation agreement, arrangements have proceeded 1 In order to provide continuity of subject matter, it is proposed that the new subsection be designated 38 (e) and that the existing subsection 38 (e) be redesignated 38 (f).
