       H.    Dissolution of Institute (PR 3B)

       President Wethington recommended that the Board approve the dissolution
of the Institute for Mining and Minerals Research (IMMR) effective June 30,
1994. He noted that this recommendation is a part of the ongoing
reorganization and restructuring process within the University. He said that
the current IMMR staff would be transferred to the Kentucky Water Resources
Research Institute effective July 1, 1994. Mr. Sturgill moved approval. His
motion, seconded by Mr. Wilcoxson, passed. (See PR 3B at the end of the
Minutes.)

       I.    Student Health Fee - Prestonsburg Community College (PR 4A)

       President Wethington said that PR 4A is a proposal that the Board
approve a mandatory student health fee of $82.50 per semester for full-time
students enrolled at Prestonsburg Community College beginning with the
establishment of the Student Health Clinic in either the fall semester of 1994
or the spring semester of 1995. He asked Chancellor Carr to comment on the
proposal.

       Chancellor Carr reported that this is essentially the same fee that is
paid in Lexington by University System students, and the services available
will be comparable to those at the University Health Service in Lexington. He
said the Student Health Clinic Advisory Committee that was appointed by
President Deborah Floyd in the fall of 1993 had worked very hard to get the
proposal to this stage. The Prestonsburg faculty, staff, students and
Advisory Board and the local physicians and hospital have been very supportive
of this effort. The Chandler Medical Center has been involved through
Chancellor Bosomworth, the College of Medicine and the University Health
Service. He added that this is a pilot site for the Community College System
and that everyone involved would like to see such a health clinic at other
community colleges. He expressed appreciation to Chancellor Bosomworth, Dr.
Emery Wilson, Dr. David Cowen, Dr. Spence Turner, the physicians at
Prestonsburg and many others who worked to make this a reality.

       Chancellor Bosomworth said that it had been a pleasure to have been
associated with this project. He praised President Floyd for her enthusiastic
support, encouragement, and strong focus on health and wellness. He said that
through the use of new technology, including telemedicine, an attempt will be
made to replicate the program as quickly as possible in the rest of the
Community College System.

       President Wethington pointed out that this project is an excellent
example of everyone working together to get things done in the University.
With the endorsement of Chancellors Carr and Bosomworth, he recommended
approval of PR 4A.

       Mr. Sturgill said that this is a very innovative thought and
complimented President Floyd for putting the project together. He moved
approval of PR 4A. His motion, seconded by Mrs. Sims, passed. (See PR 4A at
the end of the Minutes.)

       President Wethington recognized President Floyd and others in the
audience who had participated in establishing the program.
