BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[December 13

fication Board of the Illinois OflSce of Education. T h e master's degree will be conferred by the University at Chicago Circle. T h e University would reimburse Loyola University at the rate of one-third of the tuition per graduate semester hour, subject to a maximum of forty-five class enrollments per semester ($15,000 at 1978 tuition).' T h e contract would provide an option for renewal of the arrangement from year to year, subject to the right of either party to terminate it at any time upon nine months' written notice — with a provision for continuation following any such termination on a limited basis to assure that students enrolled in the program be able to complete their work. The Illinois Board of Higher Education supported the planning for this program through a Higher Education Cooperation Act grant. T h e planning has included an analysis and integration of the master's curricula of the two institutions. Funds are available in the operating budget of the College of Education on the Chicago Circle campus. T h e vice president for academic affairs and the vice president for administration have recommended approval. I concur.

Community-Child Advocacy Training Program, Urbana

(9) T h e University has been awarded a contract by the Illinois Department of Public Aid, in collaboration with the Department of Children and Family Services, to support a training and curriculum development project, "Community-Child Advocacy Training Program," under the auspices of the School of Social Work at the Urbana-Champaign campus. T h e contract will provide $1,541,177 during the period October 1, 1978, through September 30, 1981. Under the agreement, the University is committed to provide curriculum development, training, and evaluation services to social service providers in the state. This effort is directly related to the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare Title X X program in Illinois which is administered by the Department of Public Aid. This program specifically addresses the training needs of state social service agencies in delivering adoption services, foster care services for children, protective services for children, and necessary social and rehabilitative services. This contract will make it possible for the School of Social Work at Urbana to enhance its understanding of these societal problems and enable the University to take an active role in the planning and provision of social services in the state. I recommend that the board accept this contract and that the secretary of the board report it to the Illinois Board of Higher Education.

On motion of Mrs. Rader, this contract was accepted. Amendment to Contract with Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center to Provide "CAT" Scans for University Hospital Patients
