1995] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 431 The vice president for academic affairs now recommends, consistent with tuition principles endorsed by the board in October, approval of general tuition increases of 4.0 percent for students in Chicago, 3.8 percent for Springfield, and 5.0 percent for Urbana for Fiscal Year 1997. In addition, continuation of a set of multi-year professional program tuition increases approved by the board in FY 1995 is recommended for students in medicine, dentistry, and the Masters of Business Administration (MBA), to provide revenue for academic improvements. New professional program initiatives in law and veterinary medicine were reviewed in October, and are now recommended for adoption, with all funds derived by those charges returning to the respective academic programs. The funds will be used to expand and improve technology applications in course work, to improve laboratories and upgrade instructional equipment, to expand curricular offerings and clinical education initiatives, and to address faculty size and salary competitiveness concerns. Consistent with board policy that non-residents should pay the full cost of instruction, the tuition for non-resident freshmen will return to the 1:3 resident/ non-resident ratio beginning in the next academic year. All proposed tuition actions are outlined in the following table. I concur. On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, these recommendations were approved. (Ms. Lopez asked to be recorded as voting "no" on this item.) (Mr. Malone asked to be recorded as casting an advisory vote of "no" on this item.)
