counsel and the relevant University committees have also recommended settlement of the matter for an amount not to exceed $35,000. Under prior Board of Trustees' actions relating to the University's Risk Management and Self-Insurance Program, the executive vice president is required to submit to the board for its approval any settlement or claim which involves the payment of more than $30,000. Accordingly the executive vice president has recommended that the board authorize settlement of the Matthew J. McDonnell litigation in an amount not to exceed $35,000, payable from funds provided under the University's self-insurance program. I concur.

On motion of Mr. Howard, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Day, Dr. Donoghue, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. H a h n , Mr. Howard, Mr. Madden, Mr. Neal, Mr. Stone; no, none; absent, Mrs. Shepherd, Governor Thompson. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Bandala, Mr. Bettenhausen, Mr. Persons; no, none.) Search for Chancellor of the University of Illinois at Chicago President Ikenberry had asked the cochairmen of the advisory committee, Dr. Ruy V. Lourenco and Dr. Beverly P. Lynch, to attend the executive session to report briefly on procedures being initiated by the committee and to review the work of the committee. Drs. Lourenco and Lynch distributed copies of draft documents prepared by the committee, viz., the announcement of the position and a description of it, the criteria being employed in the evaluation of nominees and candidates, and other descriptive materials.
