IN THIS ISSUE:
*  High in the canopy of a Neotropical Panamanian forest, 
researchers have discovered that birds, especially native ones during 
the rainy season, protect trees by reducing the numbers of leaf-eating 
insects. The finding was a mild surprise, since many scientists had 
theorized that the rich diversity of life in tropical forests would diffuse 
any significant contributions by birds.

*  UI scientists in the university's kinesiology department are 
conducting research that seeks to establish the link between 
exercise training and immune function. 

CAMPUS NEWS:
* UI Board of Trustees approves a 5 percent tuition increase.
