1993] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 223 The chancellor at Urbana and the vice president for business and finance recommend the execution of the agreement for the construction and lease of the proposed facilities as described above. I recommend approval. On motion of Dr. Bacon, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Dr. Gindorf, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Begovich, Mr. Lawless; no, none.) Authorization for Settlement Hagl v. Deutsch, et al. (40) The university counsel recommends that the board approve settlement of Hagl v. Deutsch in the amount of $175,000. The plaintiff alleged that during performance of a right stapedectomy, plaintiff's right facial nerve was compromised, resulting in facial paralysis. Our primary defense was that although some areas of care may be subject to criticism, they were defensible judgment call issues and not standard of care issues. The vice president for business and finance concurs. I recommend approval. On motion of Dr. Bacon, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Dr. Bacon, Mr. Boyle, Mrs. Calder, Dr. Gindorf, Mr. Grabowski, Mrs. Gravenhorst, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Governor Edgar. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Begovich, Mr. Lawless; no, none.) Purchases (41) The president submitted, with his concurrence, a list of purchases recommended by the directors of purchases and the vice president for business and finance; also purchases authorized by the president. The purchases were presented in two categories: purchases from appropriated funds (i.e., from State appropriations to the University); and purchases from institutional funds. The latter term designates funds received by the University under contracts with the United States government, private corporations, and other organizations; grants from foundations, corporations, and other donors; and University revolving funds authorized by law. The total amounts of these purchases were: From Appropriated Funds Recommended From Institutional Funds Authorized Recommended Grand Total $ 398 000 17 630 438 18 028 438 $19 708 655 $ 1 680 217 A complete list of the purchases, with supporting information (including the quotations received), was sent to each member of the board in advance of the meeting.
