UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

175

President Ikenberry informed the board that he did not support recent IBHE recommendations for an extension of powers for the IBHE. He indicated that he had written the executive director, Dr. Richard Wagner, objecting to the suggestion that the powers of the IBHE be enhanced at the cost of limiting academic decisions traditionally made by University governance boards.

STATEMENT BY TRUSTEE THOMAS R. LAMONT

Mr. Lamont, stating that he wished to make a comment as an individual trustee, asked Ms. Reese to assume the chair for him and then to recognize him as a member of the board to make this comment. This having been done, Mr. Lamont then spoke to the board members stating that as a resident of Springfield he often receives many comments on matters of legislation. He said that the bill described above in President Ikenberry's report has been the subject of many comments made to him in recent weeks. He said that he has explained that this bill was not a product in any way of the University of Illinois. He then said that the bill has been characterized as a "union-breaking" proposal. He stated that he fully supported all groups of University employees and any decisions they as a group are entitled to make. Following these remarks, Mr. Lamont returned to his role as chair.
