1968] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 891 ing a presentation by Mr. John Pappademos, President of the Chicago Circle Federation of Teachers. Mr. Pappademos distributed a written statement and copies of a petition (copies of which are being filed with the Secretary of the Board for record), and spoke briefly in support of the principle of collective bargaining. He indicated that "more than 30 per cent" of the Chicago Circle faculty had signed the petition. President Henry was asked by the President of the Board to comment. He stated that the request falls outside the traditional practices of the University and raises questions not covered by the University Statutes. He proposed that the request be referred to an appropriate committee of the Board and that the Legal Counsel be asked to provide background information. He further suggested that any additional written material from Mr. Pappademos be forwarded to the Board committee. Mr. Grimes moved that the subject be referred to the Committee on General Policy and that the Legal Counsel be asked to prepare background information. The motion passed unanimously. Mr. Pappademos was advised by the President of the Board that he would be notified when the Committee has set a date for a meeting. On motion of Mr. Hughes, the Board adjourned. EARL W. PORTER TIMOTHY W. SWAIN Secretary President
