This proposal has been approved by the Executive Committee of the Graduate College, the University Research Board, and the Executive Vice-President and Provost. I concur.

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

HOSPITAL-MEDICAL-SURGICAL INSURANCE POLICIES FOR STUDENTS AND STAFF (19) Bids have been received on the hospital-medical-surgical insurance programs for staff and students for one year from September 1, 1964, with the right reserved to renew such insurance annually thereafter upon mutual agreement between the Carrier and the University. A schedule of the bids is submitted herewith and a copy is being filed with the Secretary. The Vice-President and Comptroller recommends award of a contract for the same benefits as the current program to the Continental Assurance Company, 310 South Michigan Avenue, Chicago, the lowest bidder, at the following r a t e s : Staff Insurance Monthly Premium to he Paid to Company $3 64 9 59

The excess over the cost of the coverage will be adequate to defray the administrative expenses of the programs. Since the bids are only slightly more than under the present contract, no increase in the fees charged to students and staff is necessary. O n m o t i o n of M r .
