BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[June 17

Director The chief executive officer of UICOM-UC will have the title of "Director" and will report administratively to the Dean of the University of Illinois College of Medicine ( U I C O M ) . The responsibilities of the Director will be those for "directors of schools within a college," as defined in the Statutes of the University. However, the normal delegation of authority by the Dean of the College will recognize that this program of medical education is deeply embedded in the Urbana-Champaign campus by providing for informal reporting and consultative relationships between the Director and administrators at Urbana-Champaign. Responsibility for recommendation of the appointment/reappointment of the Director will rest with the Dean of UICOM. In view of the affiliation of some faculty members of UICOM-UC with U I U C departments, and in view of the impact UICOM-UC will have on U I U C , and as provided in the Revised Reorganization Plan of December 9, 1981, the search committee for the Director will include majority representation from the faculty of the Urbana-Champaign medical education site, and the Chancellor at U I U C must concur in the appointment/ reappointment of the Director. The Director of UICOM-UC, the Dean of UICOM, and the two Vice Chancellors for Academic Affairs ( U I U C and U I M C ) will meet as requested by either Vice Chancellor to consider jointly matters of medical education which affect both campuses and which cannot be resolved under established guidelines. 3. Senate Jurisdiction Requirements for admission to U I C O M and general requirements for degrees and certificates will be under the Statutory jurisdiction of the Senate of the Medical Center campus. The academic calendar for UICOM-UC will conform as closely as possible to that of the Urbana-Champaign campus. Necessary significant deviations will be agreed upon between the Dean of U I C O M and the Director of UICOM-UC. 4. Departmental Organization UICOM-UC will establish departments with heads or chairpersons as approved in accordance with applicable University policies and procedures. Such heads or chairpersons will report to the Director of UICOM-UC. In establishing new departments, U I C O M - U C will maintain the principle that neither existing departments at U I U C nor their administrations will be duplicated. Departments which could be appropriately placed in U I U C schools or colleges will not be established in UICOM-UC without agreement between the Chancellors. 5. Operating Budget The UICOM-UC will have a separate budget for operations, which will include funds for all staff and other requirements for operations of UICOM-UC as described in "A Proposal to the Academic Council University of Illinois College of Medicine Revised Reorganization Plan — December 9, 1981." Under this plan, the budget for UICOM-UC will be determined by a budget formula refined by a technical task force established by the University. Any changes to the formula established by the task force will require the approval of the President of the University or his designee. The Director of UICOM-UC will be responsible to the Dean of U I C O M for the preparation, approval, and administration of this budget. Approval by appropriate administrative officers will be required where there is joint expenditure (e.g., for appointments, salaries, other operations). The U I C O M - U C budget will be administered at Urbana-Champaign to the greatest extent possible. The Director will have authority and responsibility for nonrecurring commitments within the limits of the UICOM-UC budget, subject to regular reporting/review involving the Dean of UICOM. Items involving a perma-
