UNIVERSITY OF I L L I N O I S

The Committee recommends that these principles be applied both to income resulting from "commissioned" work (i.e., projects undertaken by University staff members as official assignments of duty) and also to income resulting from substantial use of University facilities (even though the project might not have been undertaken as an official assignment or "commission"). The Executive Vice President and Provost recommends approval of this proposal. I concur.

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

PURCHASES (28) The President submitted, with his concurrence, a list of purchases recommended by the Directors of Purchases and the Vice President and Comptroller. The list included a report of purchases authorized by the President since the last meeting of the Board. The lists of purchases authorized and purchases recommended were presented in two categories : purchases from appropriated funds (i.e., from state appropriations to the University) and purchases from institutional funds. The latter term designates funds received by the University under contracts with the United States government, contracts with private corporations and other organizations, funds from foundation grants, and grants from corporations and other donors, and University revolving funds authorized by law : The total amounts of these purchases were : From Appropriated Funds Purchases Authorized Purchases Recommended Total From Institutional Funds Purchases Authorized Purchases Recommended Total Grand Total
