582 BOARD OF TRUSTEES Deletion of the Teacher Education Minor in Library and Information Science, Graduate School of Library and Information Science and Council on Teacher Education, Urbana The Chancellor at Urbana, upon the recommendation of the Urbana-Champaign Senate, has approved a proposal from the Graduate School of Library and Information Science and the Council on Teacher Education to eliminate the Teacher Education Minor in Library and Information Science. In recent years, very few undergraduate students have elected this minor. The course work necessary to meet state requirements is too extensive to be covered adequately in a minor. Because the focus of the program is at the graduate level, the required course work recently has been reworked to better reflect the changing field of library and information science and can no longer feasibly be completed through an undergraduate minor. This report was received for record. SECRETARY'S REPORT The secretary presented for record appointments to the faculty and changes of status made by the president, resignations, terminations, and emeriti appointments. A copy of the report is filed with the secretary. ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD Chair Lamont called attention to the schedule of meetings for the next three months: May 9, Urbana (one-day meeting); June 12-13, Chicago; July 10-11, Urbana. There being no further business, the board adjourned. MICHELE M. THOMPSON THOMAS R. LAMONT Secretary LUNCHEON GUESTS Chair Guests of the trustees at luncheon were: Mrs. Sharon Broski, Ms. Jane Broski, Professor Brenda Krause Eheart, founder of Hope Meadows, a program for foster children at Rantoul, Illinois, and child development specialist and adjunct associate professor, International Programs and Studies.

In addition, the following student leaders were in attendance: Adedeji Akinkunle, Jeremy Bautista, Steve De Rue, Kelly Doyle, Russ Mann, Matt O'Donnell, Heather Parmalee, Mike Siska, and Todd Wallace.
