UNILERSITY OF ILLINOIS.

[ J u n e 11,

3. It is also recommended that the legislative appropriations for specific purposes be appropriated for the purposes named.

A M E N D M E N T S T O T H E UNIVERSITY S T A T U T E S TOUCHING ORGANZATION AND ADMINISTRATION.

The growth of the University leads me to recommend that the University Statutes touching organization and administration be amended in the following particulars: Amend sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 so that they will read as follows: 1. All persons who give instruction in any department of the University, shall constitute the General Faculty. 2. The members of the General Faculty shall be classified as follows: (a) The President; (b) The V k e President and Dean of the Graduate School; (c) The Dean of Undergraduates and Assistant to the President; (d) The Deans of the separate colleges; (e) the Dean of the Woman's Department (f) Professors; (g) Associate Professors; (h) Assistant Professors;(i) Instructors o 3. The President, the Vice President and Dean of the Graduate School, the Dean of Undergraduates and Assistant to the President, the Deans of the separate colleges, and Dean of the Woman's Department shall constitute the Council of Administration. 4. The President, the Deans, and the Professors or ranking heads of departments, shall constitute the University Senate. 5. The members of the General Faculty associated with each college or school shall constitute the Faculty thereof. 7. The Vice President shall exercise the functions of the President in his absence, and shall at all times have particular oversight of the Graduate School. Add this section to become Section 8 and renumber the following sections. 8. The Dean of Undergraduates and Assistant to the President shall concern himself about the interests of individual students, shall see that the courses of undergraduate instruction are as well correlated as practicable and shall render such assistance to the President as that officer may desire. Amend Section 11 by striking out the words '*General Faculty" and inserting in place thereof the words "University Senate," and change terms in other sections to correspond.

SALARIES IN SUMMER TERM.

I recommend that the salaries for the Summer term be as follows: Director $ 500 00 Professors 300 00 Assistant Professors 225 00 Instructors 150 00 Assistants 100 00

SCHOOL OF COMMERCE.

Professor Kinley, who is now absent in Europe on leave, has expressed to me the desire that the School of Commerce, for which an appropriation of $6,000.00 per year was made by the last Legislature, be not opened until September, 1902. It seems to me that the year is needed to complete plans and secure suitable teachers for the same, and that it will be quite as well to have the fund accumulate so that a portion of it may be used in the purchase of needed books, and I therefore concur in the recommendation. Very respectfully,

A. S. DRAPER, President.
