IBHEadopts new proposal on admissio s by Graham Whitehead n The Illinois Board of Higher Education Tuesday adopted a proposal to make college freshman admis­ sion standards in Illinois more specific . Richard Wagner, IBHE executive director, said IBHE member Dominick Bufalino's recommenda­ tion of the proposal was unanimously accepted by the board. · Wagner said public universities will set admission standards to include subjects which must be com­ pleted in high school. The first step in admission revisions requires schools to submit a progress report to the IBHE by July 1, 1984, Wagner said. By July 1, 1985, public universities will be expected to provide/a final report on their new admission requirements, he added. The proposal states public universities' new admis­ sion requirements will be reviewed by the IBHE by Septemper 1985, Wagner said. The IBHE admission requirements proposal also includes a recommendation of high school courses needed for students who plan to attend college. The courses would not be mandatory. as a raccoon makes its way across service garbage cans across from ch Booth Library The IBHE recommended four years of study in raccoon was headed towards food Tuesday night.
