1980] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 587 Dollar Increase $ 98 340 Percent Increase 9.98 24.01 1979-80 Delta (room & board) French (room & board) $ 982 1 416 Proposed 1980-81 $1 080 1 756 N O T E : $200 of the French House increase is due to reducing the capacity by two spaces (from eighteen to sixteen). • Faculty Housing — 62 units Rate increase of 10 percent ranging from $19 to $31 per month per dwelling. T h e rates currently in effect at the Urbana campus compare favorably with those charged by the Big T e n universities in that they are slightly below the midpoint of the range. Given available information on increases projected at other Big Ten campuses next year, Urbana-Champaign rates should continue to approximate the midpoint of this range. The vice president for administration concurs in these recommendations. I recommend approval. On motion of Mr. Neal, these recommendations were approved. By consensus the board agreed that one roll call vote would be taken and considered the roll call vote on each of the next six items. The recommendations were individually discussed but acted upon at one time.
