With these steps, we should be in a strengthened position to sustain the basic quality of our academic programs, maintain appropriate balance between personnel and nonpersonnel expenditures, sustain our commitment to more competitive compensation levels, and cope with the substantial and likely continuing fiscal uncertainties.

The president reported that copies of the report of the Committee to Study the Consolidation of the Chicago campuses were expected to be available in a few days for distribution to the trustees and others.

OLD AND NEW BUSINESS

The board considered a request, mailed to all trustees, from the Champaign-Urbana Coalition Against Apartheid to appear before the board at its April meeting to discuss University investment policies related to South Africa. Mr. Forsyth moved that the secretary inform the coalition that in view of the fact that hearings on this subject were conducted recently and that there have been no significant developments since that time, no hearing would be scheduled. Mr. Neal commented that any response to the points raised by the coalition should come from the Finance Committee. The board voted approval of Mr. Forsyth's motion.

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