The dean of student services was reviewing the expenses on last month's financial report for the clinic, which also treated non-students on a fee-forservice basis. During the month the buildings furnace needed to be replaced, and the non-student department of the clinic was charged $400 for its share in addition to its normal fixed overhead assessment, which was $800.
