UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS STATUTES

M r s . W a t k i n s presented the following report. The Special Committee on Revision of the University of Illinois Statutes recommends the adoption of the revised Statutes as contained in the press proof dated January, 1957, which is submitted with this recommendation. These Statutes were adopted by the University Senate on November 5, 1956. Your Committee made a number of changes, entirely of an editorial nature, in some of the sections and these have been reported to the University Senate Committee on Revision of the Statutes. The President of the University concurs in the recommendation of the Senate and in the changes made by the Board Committee. The University Senate Committee has expressed the opinion that these changes do not alter the recommendations of the Senate. It should be noted that these University Statutes are Part One of a code and will be supplemented by The General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure, which will be submitted to the Board of Trustees later, and that these General Rules will be implemented by The Business Policy and Procedure Manual which the President of the University is authorized to promulgate. The significance of these three parts is explained in the preamble of the basic University Statutes. Your Committee further recommends that these University Statutes become effective September 1, 1957, and that all previous versions and editions of corresponding statutes be superseded on that date. O n motion of M r s . Watkins, the recommendation of the Committee was adopted by the following vote: Aye, M r . Bissell, M r . Herrick, Mrs. Holt, M r . Johnston, M r . Livingston, M r . Megran, M r . Nickell, Mr. Swain, M r s . W a t k i n s , Mr. Williamson; no, none; absent, Mr. Stratton. T h e University Statutes, as now approved, appear as an appendix to these minutes on pages 216 to 247.
