S C H E D U L E OF LABORATORY FEES IN URBANA DEPARTMENTS

(25) T h e following schedule of laboratory fees for the Urbana Departments for the academic year beginning September I, 1942, is submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval. T h e schedule has been compiled from reports of the departments and has been recommended by the Comptroller and the Provost, in accordance with the procedure specified in the University Statutes. T h e list provides for special fees in 417 courses, as compared with 415 in last year's list. Of this total, fees are indicated in three courses where none have been charged during the current year, while in six other cases fees have been omitted because of change in the content of courses. In seven cases fees have been increased, and in two cases reductions have been made as a result of the past year's experience, and in 390 cases the fee is the same as for the previous year. I recommend approval.

On motion of Mr. Cleary, this schedule of fees was approved as recommended.
