BOARD OF TRUSTEES

ADJUSTMENTS IN 1 9 5 6 - 5 7 BUDGET A N D SPECIAL APPROPRIATIONS Appropriations for the President's Office Due to increased costs of operation, a supplementary appropriation is needed for the expense and equipment budgets of the President's Office. I request a nonrecurring appropriation of $10,000 from the General Reserve F u n d for this purpose for the balance of the current fiscal year ending June 30, 1957. Members of the General Assembly of Illinois will be invited to make an official visit to the Urbana-Champaign campus on May 9 and 10, 1957, for the purpose of inspection and conferences with University officials. I request that an assignment of $4,000 be made to the Public Functions Fund of the President's Office to cover the expense of this visitation. Appropriation for the Board of Trustees Office T h e Secretary of the Board requests a supplementary appropriation of $2,000 for the expense and equipment budget of the Board of Trustees office. The major part of this additional appropriation is for the expenses of the work on the University of Illinois Statutes and the cost of printing the new edition. Architectural Services on University Club The Board of Trustees has authorized the employment of Atkins-Barrow and Associates, Champaign, as architects for the University Club building at the standard fee of 6 per cent of construction costs, but the firm has agreed to accept $6,000 as payment for services until financing of the project has been completed. However, no assignment of funds has been made for these services. I recommend that an appropriation of $6,000 be made from the General Reserve Fund. On motion of Mrs. Watkins, appropriations were made by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Livingston, Mrs. W a t k i n s ; no, n o n e ; absent, Mr. Johnston. These acts of the Committee will be reported to the Board of Trustees at its meeting on April 18, 1957, and the report will be incorporated in the minutes of that meeting. T h e Executive Committee adjourned.
