REPORT ON LAND ACQUISITIONS (14) Since July 1, 1957, the Board of Trustees has authorized purchases of a number of properties in Urbana and Champaign needed as sites for future University buildings and for expansion of the campus. These purchases are related to the University's building program, and an appropriation was made by the Seventieth General Assembly for the biennium of 1957-59 for land acquisitions. Actions of the Board of Trustees authorizing purchase of specific properties were taken at various meetings during the past year in executive session with the understanding that a complete report would be made public when the land acquisitions program was completed. Now that it has been substantially completed, there is submitted herewith, as a public report, the following list of land acquisitions authorized during this period.
