STATE UNIVERSITIES RETIREMENT SYSTEM REPRESENTATIVES On motion of Mr. Logan, the incumbent University representatives on the State Universities Retirement System Board, Mr. Forsyth and Mr. Howard, were reelected. BUSINESS PRESENTED BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY President Ikenberry recognized and introduced observers from the campus senates and from the University Senates Conference.2 Other Matters President Ikenberry emphasized a change of sentiment, now strongly in support of education at the State level. He cited the governor's announcement at a recent press conference about recommendations in support of higher education this year — the strongest in more than a decade. He noted that the funds recommended, if ultimately appropriated, would allow significant improvement in faculty salaries and would provide material help in the University's competitive situation; also, that funds for price increases and for programmatic improvements would be of great importance, in particular, funds recommended for the revitalization of buildings, laboratories, and physical facilities. REGULAR AGENDA The board considered the following reports and recommendations from the president of the University. 1 By custom the board has elected the members of this committee to serve as the board's representatives on the Civil Service Merit Board. Note: Appointments to the Patents Committee and the Special Committee for the Trustees Distinguished Service Medallion Award are deferred, pending further consideration. ' University Senates Conference: Jan Rocek, professor and head of the Department of Chemistry, Chicago campus; Urbana-Champaign Senate Council: Margaret O. Friedman, associate professor of library administration and history, and philosophy librarian; Chicago campus Senate: Stanley K. Shapiro, professor and head of the Department of Biological Sciences.
