Maher attended yesterday's coun- cil meeting. Strachan, who is out of town, could not be reached for com- ment. Critics of her appointment contend that USD, founded by the diocese in 1949, has compromised its Catholici- ty because her views are contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church. The university contends that it demonstrates its fidelity to Catholi- cism through the presence of a cam- pus ministry and through the posi- tions of prominence held by Catholic members of the faculty and adminis- tration, among other ways. Dr. Author E. Hughes, USD presi- dent, said in a statement this week that the assertion that USD is less Catholic than it should be is "mis- guided." However, the Rev. Wi!. m Moo- ney, the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church pastor who publicly urged the Presbyteral Council to take up the Strachan matter, said be bad received "a lot of telephone calls" from Catholics thanking him for pub- licly calling for her ouster.

San Diego priests have been invit- ed to write letters to Bishop Leo T. Maher expressing their views on con- troversial Univ&Slir._of San _Diego Law School Dean KrisiiiieSffiicban. "Many priests have thoughts on the subject they think that he should be aware of," the Rev. Msgr. Richard F. Duncanson, diocesan chancellor, said yesterday after a Presbyteral Council meeting at St. Francis Semi- nary. The Presbyteral Council is an or· ganization of San Diego priests that advises the bishop. Strachan's appointment as dean of the Catholic university's law school has been criticized by San Diego Catholics who consider her stand on a bortion to be incompatible with the teachings of the Catholic Church, which condemns abortion as immo-

In a letter challenging the article and published in the Aug. 22 editions of The Tribune, Strachan said she be- lieves that abortion is "morally wrong," but that in a country where abortion is legal, women have the right to an abortion "without im- posed intrusion of the government." Yesterday, the Presbyteral Coun- cil went behind closed doors to dis- cuss the matter. "We're somewhat limited in what we can tell people, but what we can say is that it was discussed in execu- tive session," Duncanson said. "The matter was brought up in executive session, and the bishop has asked for letters to be sent to him concerning the issue." Please see DEAN: B-5, ol. 3
