(The premiums include an allowance of 2 per cent for claims administration by the University. (The contracts will continue under an Experience Rating Plan, but the Company will reduce its retention of earned premium for administration from 4.0 per cent to 3.8 per cent for the period.)

Based upon their report, the Vice President and Comptroller recommends the continuation of the current contracts on January 1, 1971, subject to the proposed changes. I concur.

On motion of Mr. Steger, this recommendation was approved.

MARRIED S T U D E N T APARTMENT PROJECT, URBANA

(9) Pursuant to presentations and discussions at the March, 1969, meeting of the Board of Trustees, an analysis of the Champaign-Urbana housing market has been made, the impact of the University's growth and housing policies on that market has been studied, and some of the implications for University action have been determined. Based on these studies, the Chancellor of the Urbana-Champaign campus, with the concurrence of appropriate administrative officers, has recommended the construction of 348 additional apartments and a laundry facility in the Orchard apartment area for married students. It is anticipated that the project will cost approximately $6,100,000, to be financed by the sale of housing revenue bonds and amortized from occupant rental charges. Student tuitions in the amount of $175,000 per year would be pledged in support of this project. Under terms of the Housing Revenue Bond Resolution, approved December 17, 1958, under which bonds will be issued, the use of additional student tuitions in the amount of approximately $960,000 would be required to fulfill the sinking fund reserve requirement in the first year after the completion
