An award is being recommended for the College of Pharmacy.

EDWARD S. M I K A , professor of pharmacognosy.

University Center

T h e University Center proposes to utilize the funds for projects to improve undergraduate instruction. A committee coordinated the selection of teaching faculty to be awarded the Silver Circle Award for Excellence in Teaching. Using the Silver Circle Award procedure, the following individuals were selected for the Amoco-funded awards: KELVIN S. RODOLFO, associate professor of geological sciences PETER B. HALES, assistant professor of history of architecture and art. T h e chancellor at Chicago and the vice president for academic affairs recommend approval of these awards. I concur.

Renaming of Freer and Huff Gymnasia, Urbana

(12) T h e chancellor at Urbana-Champaign has recommended that the names of Freer Gymnasium and Huff Gymnasium be changed, respectively, to Louise Freer Hall and G. Huff Hall. T h e changes arc intended to reflect more accurately the use of the buildings, which now includes academic and administrative departments and research laboratories of the College of Applied Life Studies. Moreover, the Athletic Association offices and programs have not occupied Huff for many years; construction of the Intramural-Physical Education Building shifted the focus of campus recreation activities to that facility. Although a portion of each building continues to serve recreational and applied instructional purposes, the gymnasium component is no longer the primary focus of activity. T h e change in name would perpetuate the University's recognition of the contributions of George Huff and Louise Freer, and that portion of each building which continues to serve as a gymnasium also would be so designated. The recommendation has the endorsement of the directors of the Alumni and Athletic Associations as well. I recommend approval.

On motion of Dr. Donoghue, this recommendation was approved. Recommendations of the University Patent Committee
