1978] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 623 were appropriate. The increase of $1.00 is adequate to meet the rising cost levels; it provides for no new programs or services but permits the maintenance of health service at the same level as the 1977-78 academic year. T h e increase in the fee will be covered by the Illinois State Scholarship Commission for Illinois resident undergraduate students with financial need who hold full-value awards. I concur in the recommendation of the chancellor. On motion of Mr. Overstreet, this recommendation was approved. Student Health Insurance Contracts (22) Bids have been received on the student health insurance program for all campuses for the 1978-79 academic year, with the University reserving the right to continue the insurance coverage on an annual basis provided the terms are agreeable to the University. The University will not incur any liability for additional premiums if the claim payments exceed the premium paid. T h e insurance premiums shown in parentheses are the base rates paid to the insurance company; the balance of the fee is for administration of the program and the premium for accidental death and dismemberment insurance (underwritten by the Hartford Insurance Group) which will continue for the next policy term with the same benefits and rates.
