REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON STUDENT WELFARE AND ACTIVITIES Mrs. Shepherd presented and moved the adoption of a recommendation, approved by the Committee at its meeting on September 16, the intent being to provide for an "advisory vote" of the student members of the Board, to be recorded on roll call votes prior to the vote of the other Trustees. T h e motion is as follows: The Student Activities and Welfare Committee recommends to the Board of Trustees that the student trustees of the University of Illinois have an advisory vote at the Board of Trustees' meetings for a six-month trial period.

H a h n , Mr. Howard, Mr. Lenz, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Neal, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Velasquez; no, Mr. Forsyth, Mrs. R a d e r ; absent, Governor Walker.
