266 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [March 15, (1) Unless previously paid by the student as an undergraduate. (2) To non-matriculants registering for not more than five semester hours the Incidental Fee is remitted. Departmental Charges: In certain courses charges are laid to cover such expenses as the cost of materials abnormally used or wasted, loss of keys, and unnecessary damage to apparatus assigned for individual student use. These charges will be laid upon graduate and undergraduate students alike but will be so administered that the most careful students who are not unfortunate may have no charges to pay. No action was taken on this recommendation. OFFER FOR S M I T H FARM AT CHAMPAIGN (12) An offer for the Smith farm lying southwest of the Champaign Country Club at the price of $350 an acre.
