Budgets for 1978 Summer Sessions, Chicago Circle and Urbana-Champaign

(1) T h e chancellors at the Chicago Circle and Urbana-Champaign campuses have recommended budgets and appointments to the faculty for the 1978 summer sessions. (Copies of these documents have been filed with the secretary of the board for record.) T h e distribution of the budgeted funds is as follows: Urbana-Champaign Chicago Circle Total Salaries $ 1 867 765 $ 895 581 $ 2 763 346 Reserve 55 792 2 285 58 077 $ 1 923 557 1 $ 897 866* $ 2 821 423 T h e projected enrollment for 1978 and corresponding figures for follows (head c o u n t ) : Actual Projected Decrease or Percent 1977 1978 Increase or Urbana-Champaign Undergraduate 4 357 4 357 4)Professional 240 240 -0Graduate 5 907 5 907 -0Total 10 504 10 504 -0Chicago Circle Undergraduate 5 952 5 700 —252 Graduate 1 080 1 000 — 80 Total 7 032 6 700 —332 1977 are as of Decrease Increase -0-0--0- . -0—4.2 —7.4 —4.7

T h e salaries recommended for summer session appointments are computed on the basis of the standard formula: two-ninths of the salary of the academic year for the full period of the session, with proportionate amounts for shorter periods or for part-time service. There is no summer budget for the Medical Center. All colleges and schools at that campus will utilize faculty members on twelve-month service contracts for the educational programs offered in the 1978 summer quarter. With the concurrence of the vice president for academic affairs and the vice president for administration, I recommend that the appointments to the staff for the summer sessions be approved as submitted, and that the president of the University be authorized to accept resignations, to approve additional appointments, and to make such other changes as are necessary to meet the needs of the 1978 summer sessions within the total allocation of funds indicated.

The student advisory vote was: Aye, Miss Cordon, Mr. Overstreet, Miss Winter; no, none. On motion of Mrs. Rader, these appointments and the summer session budgets for Chicago Circle and Urbana-Champaign for 1978 were approved and authority was given as recommended by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Lenz, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Neal, Mrs. Rader, Mrs. Shepherd, Mr. Velasquez; no, none; absent, Governor Thompson.
