Short description: 
SIU-HOSPITALITY INDUS TRAINING                                             

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Southern Illinois University Management Act.  Requires      
   the University to establish a hospitality industry training program at      
   its facility located in East St. Louis, Illinois, subject to  approval      
   by the Board of Higher Education.                                           
          FISCAL NOTE (Southern Illinois University)                           
          Program costs: If SIU-Carbondale expands its baccalaureate           
          degree program in Hotel, Restaurant, and Travel Administra-          
          tion, there would be a one-time cost of $300,000 and recurring       
          costs of $210,000. If SIU-Edwardsville offers two certificate        
          programs on-site, there would be recurring costs of $200,000.        
          Capital costs: Regardless of option, the capital costs for           
          implementing the proposed hospitality program in East St. Louis      
          will entail a significant dollar investment, plus reoccuring         
          operations and maintenance costs. Option 1, use of the existing      
          East St. Louis Center Building, would have a one-time cost of        
          $15,000,000. Option 2, demolishing the existing building would       
          cost $1,000,000 and constructing a new facility on the same          
          site would cost $2,000,000. Option 3, constructing a new facil-      
          ity adjacent to the East. St. Louis Higher Education Center,         
          with internship requirements handled off-site in businesses          
          located in the St. Louis Metropolitan region, would cost             
          $2,000,000.                                                          
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                 
        Allows  the  University  to  establish  a  hospitality   industry      
   training  program    (instead of requiring the University to establish      
   the program,  subject  to    the  approval  of  the  Board  of  Higher      
   Education).
