SPECIAL FEE FOR NEW COURSE IN AVIATION; URBANA (9) A new noncredit course for the Institute of Aviation entitled "Aviation 102: Orientation Refresher" has been approved by the appropriate officers on the U r bana-Champaign campus—with the recommendation that a special fee of $275 per semester be charged for enrollment in the course. This new, intermediate course is designed to allow a student to gain additional aeronautical proficiency in the primary trainer and to serve as an introduction to different types of aircraft — with emphasis on airplane utility and safety. The University Committee on Fees recommends approval of the flat fee of $275 for this course, as proposed by the Institute of Aviation and endorsed by the Chancellor. This rate would make the fee consistent with other fees for flight courses in the Institute, in terms of the hours of flight time and time spent in the flight simulator. The effective date would be the beginning of the first semester of the academic year 1972-73. I concur.

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