1981] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 203 The change in date is requested so that the campus policy will be consistent with the national policy recommended by the Association of American Medical Colleges. T h e executive vice president concurs. I recommend approval. O n m o t i o n of D r . D o n o g h u e , this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n w a s a p p r o v e d . Student Fees, All Campuses (Student Services, Health Services, Health Insurance) (13) The chancellors have recommended selected increases in fees which support auxiliary operations and student activities, student health services, and the student health insurance program. Student Service Fee The student service fee at Urbana-Champaign provides for the cost of salaries, utilities, debt service, maintenance, and related expenses for services and programs at the Assembly Hall, Illini Union, Intramural-Physical Education Building, and Student Services Building. At the Medical Center, the student service fee supports the operation at the Chicago Illini Union, debt service requirements, student programs, student-related expenses in the Union-Residence Hall complex, campus recreation, and student government. Another component of the fee which is included for the first time is support for the operation of the new union addition. Both the Executive Student Council and the Chicago Illini Union Board have endorsed the fee increase for this facility. The student service fee at Chicago Circle supports the cost of student activities, intramural sports and recreation, intercollegiate athletics, the Chicago Circle Center, debt service requirements, and — as distinct from the other two campuses — the health service. Beyond providing for inflationary increases, the fee level recommended for 1981-82 will provide funds to enhance intercollegiate athletics and other student activities, in addition to improving working capital by $100,000 at the Chicago Circle Campus. Health Service Fee The health service fee at Urbana-Champaign supports the on-campus health services for students at McKinley Hospital and Health Center. This fee also provides funds for debt service and maintenance costs for the McKinley complex. The health service fee at the Medical Center supports the costs associated with on-campus health services for students. In addition, funds generated by this fee are used in part to reimburse the University of Illinois Hospital and Clinics for the direct costs of laboratory work and clinic referrals. While the costs to support student health services at Chicago Circle are assigned to the student service fee, the campus assesses a separate pharmacy fee to meet the costs of medicine and drugs for students for prescriptions written by the campus health service. Student Health Insurance Fee At each of the campuses, the student health insurance fee covers the cost of premiums paid to the insurance company and the cost of administering the program. Substantial increases in this fee for 1981-82 are due to poor claim experience, increasing costs associated with health care in general, and the fact that no increase in the premium has occurred for two years. T h e following tables present current and proposed fee levels for the programs described above:
