UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

Some 45 campus administrative and academic units1 are represented by signatures from well over 600 colleagues on the petitions. Of greater significance than these numbers are the returns from nearly one-third of these units where the petition evidently had wide-spread circulation and in which an average of 75 percent of the faculty and professional staff signed it. In our years at Illinois we know of few issues that have gained such widespread support among our colleagues. Thank you in advance for presenting these petitions to the Board of Trustees on our behalf. Sincerely, R. A. Eubanks Professor Civil Engineering E. Heath Associate Professor Veterinary Biosciences C. C. Stewart Professor History
