Such credit may be used for admissions purposes. The former practice of awarding credit in physical education for military service is discontinued. 3. Credit for education in the mmed forces. The U.S. Armed Forces Institute (USAFI) was an educational program which existed prior to May 1974. The University considers for advanced standing credit those USAFI courses of college level for which the student has passed the appropriate USAFI end-ofcourse test or examination. Marine Corps Institute courses also will be considered on the same basis. The University may consider for advanced standing credit work completed in the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy specialized and technical schools. Criteria to determine acceptability include : a. the specific degree requirements of the program of application, b. similarity to courses at campus of application, and c. recommendation of the American Council on Education in the Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experience in the Armed Services. All criteria are subject to the recommendations of the college to which the student seeks admission and the department which teaches similar course work. Credit earned in the College Training Programs of the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, and Navy that functioned during World War 11, is accepted on the same basis as other credits from the colleges and universities where such credits were completed. 4. Credit earned in academic courses sponsored by non-collegiate organizations not recognized by the April 1977 Board of Trustees policy, such as business, industry, and labor. Credit earned in such courses is not accepted. Such credit may be evaluated for potential advanced standing in a specific degree program after admission and registration. This credit shall be subject to validation by proficiency examination or successful completion of advanced course work. Hours of this type of credit may be reduced from that shown by the originating agency. Criteria to determine acceptability for advanced standing include: a. the specific degree requirements of the program of enrollment, b. similarity to courses at campus of enrollment, and c. recommendations of the American Council on Education in A Guide to Educational Programs in Non-Collegiate Organizations. All criteria are subject to the recommendations of the appropriate college and department that offer similar courses. 5. Credit for experiential learning. Experiential learning credits are not accepted for transfer admissions purposes. A student who believes himself /herself to be knowledgeable in a specific course may be granted credit through established proficiency procedures by the college of enrollment and department offering similar courses after admission and registration. 6. Handling of future problems. As other sources of nontraditional credit emerge, acceptability of the credit will be determined by a consideration of the following : a. University criteria for acceptance of traditional college credit, b. the basis on which credit was awarded, c. the successful graded completion of eighteen quarter or twelve semester hours of baccalaureate-oriented college-level classroom course work at the institution (campus at a multicampus institution) which awarded the nontraditional credit,

Contract for Management and Operation of Interlibrary Delivery System (24) At the request of the Illinois State Librarian, a proposal has been developed under which the University would contract to manage and operate a system to deliver library materials among eighteen regional libraries and the several state universities throughout Illinois. The system will make it possible for a prospective borrower in one of the libraries covered to have rapid access to books in any other library in the system. While this program is not directly related to the Library Computer System (LCS) operated by the University of Illinois, the libraries involved will be able to search the University collection by its use. This delivery plan will thus enhance and complement the LCS by improving access to materials. Moreover, participating libraries have the opportunity to reduce acquisition costs. The service would be provided through the implementation of six delivery routes' to link the regional and state universities libraries. The University of Illinois would manage and coordinate the entire delivery system. It would be administered by the University Office of Planning. The Chicago campuses' Physical Plant Department would also operate the first three listed routes, while the operation of the remaining three loops would be subcontracted. Delivery service would be provided five days a week, holidays excepted. The Illinois State Library would pay the University a total of $323,2 17 during FY 1981, $146,265 of this amount being provided within ninety days of execution of this agreement; the remainder would be paid periodically over the balance of the fiscal year. The vice president for administration has recommended that the University enter into an agreement as described. The vice president for academic affairs concurs. Authorization is also requested to subcontract for operation of the Western Distribution Loop with Western Illinois University; the Near South Loop with Kaskaskia Library system; and the Far South Loop with Shawnee Library system. Funds are provided in the aforementioned total for this purpose. I recommend approval. Renewal of Contract with West Side Veterans Administration Hospital, Medical Center (25) On June 20, 1979, the board approved the renewal of an annual contract with the West Side Veterans Administration Hospital for the sharing of specialized medical resources between the Veterans Administration Hospital and the University of Illinois Hospital to minimize duplication of personnel, equipment, and space. Under the contract, each hospital bills the other for services rendered the 1 The routes are as follows: Region Deliuery Services tn: 1. The Northern Loop 2. The Chicago Circle Campus Shuttle 3.
