        <Explanation>IN 2012-2013, BENEDICTINE UNIVERSITY, A RELATED ORGANIZATION, ENROLLED 806 UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AND 94 GRADUATE STUDENTS AT THE SPRINGFIELD COLLEGE IN ILLINOIS (SCI) CAMPUS. STUDENTS THAT WOULD HAVE ENROLLED AT SCI ARE NOW BEING ENROLLED AND EDUCATED BY BENEDICTINE UNIVERSITY. THE FACULTY AT SCI HAS COMPLETED THE 'TEACH-OUT' OF THE STUDENTS THAT WERE ENROLLED IN SCI'S ACADEMIC PROGRAMS. SCI CONTINUES TO RETAIN OWNERSHIP OF THE REAL PROPERTY. BENEDICTIVE UNIVERSITY PAYS RENT TO SCI FOR ACADEMIC AND ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSES (CLASSROOMS, LABORATORIES, OFFICES, LIBRARY, MEETING ROOMS, AND OTHER SIMILAR PURPOSES). STAFF MEMBERS ON BENEDICTINE UNIVERSITY'S PAYROLL MANAGE THE PHYSICAL PLANT AND STUDENT HOUSING, HANDLE THE ACCOUNTING RECORDS AND BOOKKEEPING, AND PROVIDE GENERAL OVERSIGHT THROUGH THE UNIVERSITY'S SPRINGFIELD BRANCH CAMPUS PRESIDENT. SCI ALSO RECEIVES ROOM AND BOARD INCOME FROM THE UNIVERSITY'S STUDENTS. SCI'S PRIMARY EXPENSES PERTAIN TO THE OPERATION OF THE PHYSICAL PLANT (SUCH AS UTILITIES AND MAINTENANCE) AND ROOM AND BOARD. MOVING FORWARD, THE UNIVERSITY AND SCI WILL REVIEW THE PRESENT STRUCTURE AND ORGANIZATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS BETWEEN THE TWO ENTITIES, INCLUDING POSSIBLY DISSOLVING THE SCI CORPORATION AND TRNANSFERRING SCI'S ASSETS AND LIABILITIES TO THE UNIVERSITY.</Explanation>
