(110 ILCS 305/5) (from Ch. 144, par. 26)
Sec. 5.
At the first, and at each biennial meeting thereafter, it shall be
the duty of the board to appoint a treasurer, who shall not be a member of
the board, and who shall give bonds, with such security as the board of
trustees shall deem amply sufficient to guard the University from danger of
loss or diminution of the funds intrusted to his care. The trustees may
appoint, also, the corresponding secretary, whose duty it shall be, under
the direction or with the approval of the trustees, to issue circulars,
directions for procuring needful materials for conducting experiments, and
eliciting instructive information from persons in various counties,
selected for that purpose, and skilled in any branch of agricultural,
mechanical and industrial art; and to do all other acts needful to enable
him to prepare such reports and financial statements regarding the
University and its departments as may from time to time be required by law
or by action of the board of trustees. The trustees may appoint, also,
a recording secretary, whose duty it shall be to keep faithful record of
the transactions of the board of trustees, and prepare the same for
publication in a biennial report. The treasurer and the corresponding and
recording secretaries shall receive such compensation as the trustees may
fix, to be paid in the same manner as the teachers and other employees of
the University are paid.
