364 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [September 12 On motion of Mr. Swain, these recommendations were approved, with the understanding that no precedent of any kind is created by the action which might prejudice the revision of the patent provisions of the General Rules which the University Patent Committee is presently undertaking. ESTATE OF GEORGE H. MILLER (33) George H. Miller, a former employee of the University of Illinois, died on August 29, 1972, leaving a will which made the University of Illinois the sole beneficiary of his estate. The proceeds of the estate amount to $111,702.36. Under the terms of the will, the funds are to be used for unrestricted purposes at the Medical Center campus. The will specifies that the fund be designated as "The George H. Miller Memorial Fund." George Miller began his employment at the Medical Center campus in 1921 in the Department of Anatomy. He retired in 1969 as a pathology technologist, having served the University for forty-eight years. Mr. Miller was known to almost every medical student graduated from the University of Illinois at the Medical Center during his service. He was held in high respect by faculty, staff, and students. I recommend acceptance of this gift to be used for the enhancement of the educational programs at the Medical Center campus. On motion of Mr. Forsyth, this recommendation was approved.
