Additional Hospital Affiliations for the Peoria School of Medicine, College of Medicine, Medical Center

(9) On July 23, 1969, the Board of Trustees authorized the College of Medicine to institute organizational and administrative arrangements through which an expanded program in medical education would be developed and conducted. The plan was endorsed by the Board of Higher Education on November 4, 1969. The Board also authorized the Dean (now Executive Dean) of the College of Medicine to proceed with affiliation negotiations with hospitals and health agencies. T o expand further the use of existing clinical facilities, the Dean of the Peoria School of Medicine and the Executive Dean of the College of Medicine have recommended the execution of affiliation agreements 1 with the Julia Rackley Perry Memorial Hospital in Princeton, Illinois, and the Pekin Memorial Hospital in Pekin, Illinois. These affiliation agreements, when approved and executed, will provide additional support for the medical education program of the Peoria School of Medicine. The Chancellor at the Medical Center and the Vice President for Academic Affairs concur in the recommendation. I recommend approval. O n m o t i o n of M r .

Supplemental Contract with Bromley Hall, Police Training Institute, Urbana

(10) On July 16, 1975, the Board of Trustees approved an agreement with Bromley Hall to provide housing, meals, transportation, parking space, and certain classroom space for participants in courses offered by the Police Training Institute during the period August 17, 1975, through August 14, 1976. Under the agreement, normal accommodations are provided for 114 resident students. However, Institute enrollments during the period September to November 1975 have exceeded 130 resident students, requiring a third student to be assigned to rooms designed for double occupancy. Because of this unanticipated enrollment, approval is now requested for a supplement to the contract to accommodate twenty additional students for room, board, and services for the twenty-four week period January 19, 1976, through July 2, 1976. Bromley Hall has offered to provide an additional ten rooms capable of accommodating twenty students, plus meals and other services, for the specified period at a total cost of $21,250. The rates to be paid for the items now to be contracted for are comparable to or lower than the charges for those items in the present contract. The entire amount of these additional costs will be recovered through charges to the registrants. The proposal has the approval of the Vice Presidents for Academic Affairs and Administration. I recommend approval. T h e student advisory vote w a s : Aye, M r . Conlon, M r . Summers, M r . Szegho; no, none.

1 Copies of the affiliation agreements will be filed with the Secretary of the Board of Trustees for the record.
