1967] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 665 All of the above contracts will be assigned to, or executed directly by, the Illinois Building Authority. The latter requires that the fees be based on the estimated, instead of the actual, costs of construction.

It is also recommended that authorization be given for the assignment to the Illinois Building Authority of those of the above architectural contracts which are executed by the University. I concur. On motion of Mr. Grimes, these recommendations were approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Page, Mr. Pogue, Mr. Swain; no, none; absent, Mr. Jones, Governor Kerner, Dr. Weatherly.
