FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS

There were no material findings disclosed during our audit tests. We commend the Illinois Summer School for the Arts (ISSA) for maintaining an effective system of internal controls.

AUDITORS’ OPINION

We have stated the financial statements of the Illinois Summer School for the Arts Grant Fund as of and for the years ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are fairly presented in all material respects.

The July 2000 summer school was held, however, after the July 2000 summer school concluded, the remaining ISSA Board members resigned from their Board positions as of June 30, 2001.

The Governor signed Executive Order Number 3 on April 1, 2002. This Executive Order, in part, abolishes the Board of Trustees of the Illinois Summer School for the Arts and the Illinois Summer School for the Arts Act. In addition, legislation is currently pending on the ISSA.
