submitted by the three Chancellors and in consultation with the University Budget Committee. 1 The increases indicated for four of the budget categories listed in Schedule A of the document are provisional, since the estimates are based partly upon enrollment figures for the current term, and the official enrollment counts for the two Chicago campuses were not available in time to be reflected in the present budget proposals. (The date for the official count at the two campuses was October 10, 1970, and some two weeks thereafter will be required to complete all of the revised calculations.) The following are the four budget categories in Schedule A whose amounts are subject to revision in the light of these recalculations: (la) funds for increased enrollment; (4c) refunds (of tuition); (4e) salary increases; (7) State Universities Retirement System contributions. The estimates of the increases for the first three of these four items are based upon budget formulae (and procedures) established by the Office of the Illinois Board of Higher Education; the estimate for the State Universities Retirement System contributions is calculated in accordance with state statutes. It is recommended that the attached budget request be approved, subject to such revisions as might be required in the four items just mentioned after the official enrollment figures for all three campuses have been used in the calculations. It is understood that any such revisions of items ( l a ) , (4c), and (4e) of Schedule A will follow the budget formulae and procedures established by the Office of the Illinois Board of Higher Education, and that any revision of item (7) will be made in accordance with applicable state statutes. It is recommended further that the President be authorized to submit the revised budget request to the Board of Higher Education and to the appropriate offices of state government. 2 I concur.
