The appointments include only those who are newly appointed to the University, effective during the 1975-76 academic year, and excludes graduate students and visiting faculty.

Administrative Leave

(7) In accordance with the plan for administrative leaves approved by the Board of Trustees, 3 the Chancellors at the Medical Center and the Urbana-Champaign campuses have recommended such a leave for the following person: DANIEL K. BLOOMFIELD, Dean of the School of Basic Medical Sciences at UrbanaChampaign, was appointed Dean in August 1970. During the period February 10, 1976, to June 8, 1976, he plans to study the development of medical education at Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Beersheva, Israel. Ben Gurion University, like the School of Basic Medical Sciences at Urbana-Champaign, is attempting to merge medical education with the health care system. The proposed leave has been reviewed by the committee on administrative leaves which recommends approval. O n m o t i o n of M r .

Renewal of Contract with Dennis and Company, Inc.

(8) Since 1965 the University and Dennis and Company, Inc., have operated under a contract, the main provision of which gave reprint rights to the University of Illinois Law Forum to Dennis and Company, Inc., which in turn agreed to purchase the then existing stock of back issues of the Forum and to subscribe for 100 copies of the ten next successive volumes of the Forum through 1976. The University reserved the copyright and the right of the University Press to elect to reprint any volumes as paperback or hardbound books.

1 The plan, approved on June 20, 1973, provides for paid leaves of two to four months for certain administrative officers for the purpose of "keeping abreast of developments in their profession and to find time to design new approaches to their tasks."
