BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[December 10

Hospital Conference Committee The Hospital Conference Committee is the point of contact for the Medical Staff of the Hospital and the administrative heads of other related educational programs at the Medical Center campus in Chicago. The Hospital Conference Committee delineates policy on the Hospital's role in educational programs; is responsible for the final approval of recommendations made by the Executive Committee of the Medical Staff for membership on the Medical Staff; and constitutes a primary source of advice to the Vice Chancellor for the University of Illinois Hospital in matters involving patient care.

COLLEGE OF NURSING COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT W I T H RUSH PRESBYTERIAN-ST. LUKE'S MEDICAL CENTER

(5) The Dean of the College of Nursing, with the concurrence of the Chancellor at the Medical Center campus, recommends approval of a cooperative agreement with the Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center (a copy of the agreement is being filed with the Secretary of the Board for record). Under the cooperative agreement, resources of the Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center will be available to support the educational programs of the College of Nursing. Since September of 1967, a limited number of students have been accommodated for a part of their clinical nursing education at Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center under the guidelines described in a document entitled "Principles of Cooperative Relationship between the University of Illinois College of Nursing and Presbyterian-St. Luke's Hospital," dated June 12, 1967. No transfer of funds between institutions was involved and the agreement was approved administratively. Under the proposed cooperative agreement entitled "Agreement for Cooperative Relationship between The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois and the Executive Board of the Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center," the University will transfer to the Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center in quarterly lump-sum payments amounts for direct nursing education services received. The total payments for the 1970-71 academic year will amount to $10,926 for direct teaching services received. Funds are available in the College of Nursing operational budget for 1970-71. The cooperative agreement would require an annual attachment listing the individual faculty members involved, the percentage of appointment time, and the number of hours involved in specifically identified teaching assignments. The annual attachment would be prepared by the College of Nursing and submitted to Presbyterian-St. Luke's Hospital for concurrence prior to June 30 of each year. It is further recommended that the Chancellor at the Medical Center be authorized to approve the annual attachment just described. The Executive Vice President and Provost and the Vice President and Comptroller concur. I recommend approval.

On motion of Dr. Walker, these recommendations were approved.

TRAVEL POLICY

(6) As a result of legislation enacted by the Seventy-sixth General Assembly, the University of Illinois is subject to travel policies and regulations approved by a newly created Travel Control Board, consisting of the Governor, the Auditor of Public Accounts, and the Auditor General. The travel policy is based upon and consistent with the policy and regulations adopted by the Travel Control Board. The President of the University recommends adoption of the travel policy, effective January 1, 1971, and further recommends that the Vice President and Comptroller be authorized to revise the policy from time to time in accordance with changes made by the Travel Control Board. (A copy of the travel policy is filed with the Secretary of the Board for record.)

On motion of Mr. Grimes, this recommendation was approved. ROLL CALL ITEMS Mr. Swain moved that a roll call vote be taken, said roll call to be considered the roll call vote on each of the next six items, and that the Secretary be instructed to record such vote as the separate vote of each Trustee on each item.
