Oliver of the Department of Romance Languages. Professor Clarence A. Berdahl of the Department of Political Science. Assistant Professor Paul N. Landis of the Department of English. I recommend that these leaves be granted. O n motion of M r s . E v a n s , these leaves were granted. LEAVE OF ABSENCE FOR DR. CLARISSA RINAKER (4) A recommendation from the Head of the Department of English and the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences that Dr. Clarissa Rinaker, Assistant Professor of English, be given leave of absence on account of illness from November 1, 1930, to February 1, 1931, on part salary.

The salary of the substitute will be charged to the salary of Doctor Rinaker and the balance will be paid to her. O n motion of M r . Fisher, this recommendation w a s adopted. AMENDMENT OF REGULATIONS FOR ASSESSMENT OF NON-RESIDENT FEES (5) A recommendation that the regulations adopted by the Board of Trustees on October 20, 1922 (page 57), defining the residence of students for the purposes of assessing fees be amended to clarify our practice. Under the present regulations a minor whose parents have moved to Illinois from outside of the State and have established a bonafideresidence is immediately considered a resident of the State, but an adult student may be considered a resident only after he has been in residence twelve months and is self-supporting. In other words, under the present phraseology of the rules a minor child of a family which has just established legal residence in the State may be classified as a resident of Illinois and an adult child of the same family may be classified as a non-resident for his first year in the University. T h e a m e n d m e n t s proposed are as follows:
