460 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [January 18 MEETING OF THE BOARD AS A COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE1 At this time, the regular session was adjourned for a meeting of the board as a Committee of the Whole. There were four reports presented. One was a proposal to contract for services for parking facilities at Chicago. Another was a recommendation for major remodeling in the State-owned Illinois State Psychiatric Institute in order to carry out research in the neurosciences. The third report concerned recommendations for change in the policies of the board as well as a change to The General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure for granting tuition waivers to graduate and professional students. The fourth report was a recommendation for a change to the board's policy on determination of residency status for students. (Background materials are on file with the secretary.) There being no further business, the committee meeting was adjourned and the board reconvened in regular session. OPEN DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS At this time, Mr. Engelbrecht asked that agenda item, "Procedures Governing Appearances Before the Board of Trustees," be deferred until such time as certain amendments could be made. In the main, these amendments concerned the provision of more notice time to the board of a request to appear before them. Mr. Rose gave compliments to the Chicago campus for recommending that the Master of Social Work program be transferred to the Jane Addams College of Social Work. This is agenda item no. 7.
