UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS

EXECUTIVE SESSION Mr. Hughes announced that an executive session had been requested and was being ordered for consideration of reports and recommendations relating to a site selection. He also announced that a meeting of the Committee on Buildings and Grounds would be convened after the Executive Session.

SITE SELECTION, PEORIA S C H O O L OF MEDICINE

(36) Executive Dean William Grove and Mr. Donald C. Neville, Campus Director of Physical Plant Planning and Construction for the Medical Center campus, presented preliminary architectural studies with regard to another alternative site for the Peoria School of Medicine. The alternative presented involved the construction of a bridge and attendant structure over Highway 1-74. Dean Grove and Mr. Neville noted that University studies indicated very high costs and other difficulties in pursuing a study of this site and recommended to the Trustees that it be eliminated from further consideration in order that continued study of three additional sites could go forward. On motion of Mr. Swain, this recommendation was approved. On motion of Mr. Swain, the Board adjourned.
