Purchases

(36) The president submitted, with his concurrence, a list of purchases recommended by the directors of purchases and the executive vice president. The list of purchases was presented in two categories: purchases from appropriated funds (i.e., from state appropriations to the University) and purchases from institutional funds. The latter term designates funds received by the University under contracts with the United States government, private corporations, and other organizations; grants from foundations, corporations, and other donors; and University revolving funds authorized by law. The total amounts of these purchases were: From Appropriated Recommended From Institutional Recommended Grand Total Funds $ Funds 7 423 289 05 $7 616 663 46 193 374 41

Excess Comprehensive Health Insurance Plan

(37) The State of Illinois has entered into a contract for group health insurance for eligible State employees (to become effective July 1, 1981) which substantially reduces some of the benefits payable under both the High and Low Option Plans that exist presently. Most University of Illinois employees are defined as State employees, and therefore receive health insurance through the State programs administered by the State Department of Personnel. Dependents cf University employees are also eligible to participate in the various State health insurance options; however, the premiums for such are paid by the employee.
