BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[March 13

Governor's Budget Message, Fiscal Year 1987

The president expressed strong commendation of the governor and the General Assembly for establishing the high priority in the current budget year for education at all levels in Illinois. He characterized the year as a successful test of the State's commitment to such a priority, especially in a period when resources are not plentiful. The budget for the University of Illinois as recommended by the governor will provide for the fourth year a major step in recovery from the difficult years of the past decade, he stated.

REGULAR AGENDA

The board considered the following reports and recommendations from the president of the University.

The salaries recommended for summer session appointments are computed on the basis of the standard formula: two-ninths of the salary of the academic year for the full period of the session (eight weeks) with proportionate amounts for shorter periods or for part-time service. The vice president for academic affairs and the vice president for business and finance concur in the recommendation. Accordingly, I recommend that the appointments to the staff for the summer sessions be approved as submitted; and that the president of the University be authorized to accept resignations, to approve additional appointments, and to make such other changes as are necessary to meet the needs of the 1986 summer sessions within the total allocation of funds indicated.
