588 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [April 12 Elimination of Tuition Retention T h e proposed increase at each campus of $15 per year ($5 per quarter or $7.50 per semester) allows for the elimination of tuition retention funds required by the fee-supported facilities to meet their previous debt service requirements. I concur in these recommendations and recommend their approval. The student advisory vote was: Aye, Miss Conlon, Mr. Overstreet; no, Miss Winter. On motion of Mr. Lenz, these recommendations were approved 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. Rate Increases for University-Operated Housing Facilities, Urbana and Medical Center (9) T h e chancellors at the Urbana-Champaign and Medical Center campuses have recommended rate increases for University-operated housing facilities beginning with the 1978-79 academic year. T h e rates proposed are necessary to offset the inflationary cost increases anticipated in utilities (15 percent), salaries (8 to 10 percent), food supplies (7 percent), and general commodities (6 percent), in order to maintain the current level of services and programs of these facilities. T h e proposed rate increases for the academic year 1978-79 are to offset the inflationary impact of housing operations only. T h e proposed annual rate increases are as follows: Urbana-Champaign Current Undergraduate Housing (room and board) Single SI 684 Double 1 492 Triple 1 404 Graduate Housing Sherman Hall — single Sherman Hall — double Daniels Hall —single Daniels Hall —double Optional board contract Cooperative Houses Alpha and Gamma — shared Alpha and Gamma — single Delta French $ 872 832 760 678 860 580 632 850 1 230 Proposed SI 796 1 590 1 496 S 924 882 806 718 920 628 682 918 1 324 Increase $112 98 92 $52 50 46 40 60 $48 50 68 94 Percent oj Increase 6.6 6.6 6.6 6.0 6.0 6.0 6.0 7.0 8.3 8.0 8.0 7.6 Percent of Increase 8.0 8.0 10.0 $ S Medical Center Current Housing Student Residence Hall — double... $ 8 0 8 Women's Residence Hall — double. . 853 Board Contract Fourteen-meal plan $ 840 Proposed $ 873 921 924 Increase $65 68 8 84 $ I concur in these recommendations and recommend their approval.
