32 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [July 17 Report of the Committee on Student Welfare and Activities Operation and Governance of the Mini Union, Urbana O n June 18 and July 16, 1974, the Committee on Student Welfare and Activities met to consider a request from the Mini Union Student Activities Committee, asking that the Board of Trustees make certain changes in the charge from the Board for the operation of the Illini Union, essentially with the effect of separating from the Illini Union Board programming responsibilities for the Union. I n consideration of this request, the Trustees directed the administration to present an analysis and recommendations and the Committee conducted hearings on the dates mentioned above for the purpose of hearing administrative proposals and from affected student groups and others. Mr. Hahn, Chairman of the Committee on Student Welfare and Activities, presented the following report for the consideration of the Board: T h e Committee recommends the following with regard to the operation and governance of the Illini Union, Urbana, to supersede the June 18, 1969, action of the Board of Trustees: 1. T h e Director of the Illini Union shall be responsible for the administration of all physical facilities, services and operations of the Illini Union with the exception of the social, cultural, educational and recreational activities and programs of a campus-wide nature which shall be the responsibility of the Illini Union Board. The Vice Chancellor for Campus Affairs is specifically responsible for coordinating campus programming. The Illini Union Board and all other campus units that engage in campus-wide programming are subject to that coordination. It is not intended that the Illini Union Board have exclusive responsibility for campus-wide programming. 2. The Director of the Illini Union and the Program Director shall proceed in accordance with the instructions of the Illini Union Board in the conduct of the social, cultural, educational and recreational programs of the Illini Union. Such programs and programming activities are subject to monitoring for conformity with campus policy and fiscal responsibility. The Vice Chancellor for Campus Affairs, or his designee, may direct modifications in the Illini Union Board's program actions when necessary to bring about such conformity or fiscal soundness. 3. T h e Program staff is administratively responsible to the Director. However, the Director shall seek the advice and consent of the Illini Union Board in the employment [and review of the program staff]1 of the program director. 4. Policies on the use of the Illini Union, including assignment of space, and the operation of all departments, except the Program Department (see # 2 above) of the Illini Union, shall be determined by the Director of the Illini Union. The Director will make no major policy decisions or changes in existing policy without first consulting fully with the Illini Union Board which shall be advisory to the Director on such matters. After consulting with the Illini Union Board, the decision of the Director shall be final subject to higher administrative monitoring and direction. 5. T o provide for the maximum and informed consideration of all matters related to the operation of the Illini Union, the Illini Union Board shall annually assign to its student directors, various aspects of these operations for their study and report to the Board. 6. The Chancellor of the Urbana-Champaign campus will seek the advice of the Illini Union Board in the appointment of the Director of the Illini Union. 7.
