1968] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 895 Trustees (prepared at the request of the President of the University) in which University policies and procedures related to the objectives of the Federation are described. It is the view of the Committee on General Policy that the broad objectives of the Federation are of fundamental significance to the University and worthy of continual appraisal through the established faculty agencies provided for by the University Statutes. The Committee further believes that present University policies — and as they relate to salaries and fringe benefits, grievance procedures, and the role of the faculty in policy-making—fully reflect the highest standard of excellence in university governance in this country and sees no need for a change in the present structure and relationships. Therefore, the Committee on General Policy recommends that the request of the Chicago Circle Federation of Teachers be denied. General Policy Committee EARL M. HUGHES, Chairman HOWARD W. CLEMENT DONALD R. GRIMES R A L P H C. H A H N THEODORE A. JONES KENNEY E. WILLIAMSON On motion of Mr. Grimes, the recommendation of the Committee was unanimously approved. At this point, Mr. Hughes asked to be excused from the meeting. CURRENT STATUS OF SELECTIVE SERVICE The President of the University reported to the Trustees on the apparent effect on the University of new selective service regulations and interpretations — those which will have particular significance on graduate level enrollments beginning in the fall of 1968. Extended comment and analysis was provided by the Executive Vice-President and Provost and by the chancellors from each of the campuses. The Provost indicated that possibly 20 per cent of the projected enrollment of graduate students for 1968 might be eligible for the draft. However, it was made clear that a number of uncertainties are involved, including the fact that much rests upon the individual decisions of students enrolled and students seeking admission themselves. The President indicated that continued reports and analyses will be brought to the Board in months to come.
