Master Academic Affiliation with the Illinois Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities, Chicago

(10) The chancellor at Chicago recommends approval of the Master Academic Affiliation Agreement with the Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities (DMHDD) for the transfer of the research and education programs formerly operated under the auspices of the Illinois State Psychiatric Institute. The Master Academic Affiliation Agreement will govern the educational, research, public service, and patient care relationships between DMHDD and the Chicago campus. The mission of the DMHDD will be enhanced by this collaborative affiliation with the University. The agreement provides for administrative oversight and consultation of the activities and services provided by the University under the Intergovernmental Agreement. The agreement provides that the University retain the ultimate authority over its obligations and governance including the appointment, promotion, termination, and tenuring of faculty and the conduct and control of its educational, research, and public service mission. DMHDD maintains ultimate authority over its affairs including the clinical staff. The agreement requires that DMHDD exert its best effort to maintain the status of its hospitals where licensed by the State of Illinois and/or its accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and other appropriate accreditation required by applicable laws. A Master Affiliation Committee will be created consisting of the chancellor at Chicago, the vice chancellor for health services, the vice chancellor for academic affairs, the head of the Department of Psychiatry, the director of DMHDD, and two other representatives of DMHDD. The committee will review and approve all subordinate academic affiliations between DMHDD and the University. The committee shall also review all academic affiliations between the parties at least once a year to assure compliance with this agreement and subordinate agreements. It will also submit an annual report to each party describing the extent and nature of the various relationships. The agreement is effective July 1, 1994, contingent upon the actions of the Illinois General Assembly. The Master Academic Affiliation Agreement is in effect for five years and automatically renews for additional five-year periods. It can be terminated, with or without cause, at any time after expiration of the initial five-year term by either party with a minimum of a two-year notice. Termination will occur two years after the close of the academic year in which the notice is sent. The agreement has been reviewed and approved by the Office of the University Counsel. The vice president for academic affairs 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,
