MEETING OF THE COMMITTEE ON BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS

Dr. Bacon asked Mr. Lamont, chair of the Committee on Buildings and Grounds, to begin the committee meeting. Mr. Lamont invited Mr. Robert K. Todd, associate vice president for administration and human resources, to report. Mr. Todd informed the board of background information on several design projects for new buildings and several capital programs included in the regular agenda for the board's consideration later in the day. The first of the design projects was a recommendation for the selection of an architect/ engineer to remodel the Biologic Resources Laboratory Holding Facility, Betatron Facility, at the Chicago campus. Next, Mr. Todd introduced the topic of the preliminary design of the WILL Communications Building at Urbana. The project architect then presented a graphic illustration of the building as well as a model showing the design elements. Mr. Todd then presented the final design for the Administration Building for the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics. On motion of Mrs. Gravenhorst, the recommendation was made to place all three of these items on the regular agenda for a vote later in the day. This committee adjourned at 9:00 a.m.
