A federal construction grant of $1,080,128 for Its School of Nursing has been awarded to the University of San Diego. Dr. Author E. Hughes, USD president, announced that the grant from the De- partment of Health, Educa- tion and Welfare Is for con- struction of an education building In the School of Nursing. The university will be required to prpvlde matching funds, he added. Dr. Irene Palmer, dean of the school, said the bu1ldlng will be designed for Instruc- tional, learning, office and support space for faculty, staff and students. "The population projec- tions for San Diego and Itnperial counties alone in- dicate a very real need for additional nurses In South- ern California," Hughes said. "The mandate of cautor- nia law which states that by July 1978 each practicing nurse must avail herself of continuing education to keep up with the changes in patient care will be fulfilled by the availability of the Hahn School of Nursing to the nurse and to the community." Construction Is expected to begin early In 1977, Hughes said. It will follow the Spanish Renaissance architecture of existing structures on the Alcala Park campus, he noted. The Unh·ersity of San Diego has received a $1 mil- lion federal grant for a School of Nursing building on the campus. It is the first federal con- struction money ever grant- ed to the private university, and will be the first new building on the campus since ' he sports center was corn- le din 1 2. University President Au- thor E. Hughes said yester- day th t the building will be started early next year, is scheduled for completion in early 1978, a~d will follow the ornate Spanish Renais- sance architecture of the present structures. The building will house the new Philip Y. Hahn School of Nursing, which earved full eight-year accreditation from the National League of Nursing only 15 months after the program began in Janu- ary 1975. The federal grant is a matching fund requiring 75 per cent from the govern- ment and 25 per cent from the university. Hughes said the govern- ment had provided $1,080,126 from a National Institutes of Health construction fund for health care institutions, and the Hahn Foundation is pro- viding the univerity's share. Two sites are being consid- ered for the new structure, both at the west end of the campus. One is ori the south side of the campus' main drive, next to the diocesan office, and the other, farther to the west, on the north side of the road.

Slaff Writer, TIMI son D Union Student archeologists from the Universi- ty of San Diego have ound two levels of architecture assoclater,1 with four previous churches at the site of 1ssion San Diego de Alcala, a faculty ember reported at the university's Bicentennial Tribute last night. Excavations at less than half the site during the past 10 years also have uncov- ered a great variety of artifacts from around the world, showing the impact of worldwide trade on the mission, said Dr Ray Brandes, who assisted in the archeo- logical research.. His report on "Mission San Diego de Alcala: Archeological and Historical DlScoveries" was one of four papers pre- sented as part or the special Bicentennial program emphasizing California's Roman Catholic Heritage. Filmstrip Presented The Bicentenrual Tribute in Salomon Hall included the presentation of a filmstrip on the mission's history made by Copley Productions. The program, held in connection with the Bicentennial celebration of the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego, followed a concelebrated Mass in the Immaculata Church and a dinner in the Rose Garden at • USD. The papers by faculty members, deallng with vartou aspects of the state's Chris- tian anrl Catholic heritage appear in the book "Some alifornia Reminiscences for the Uni td States Bicentennial," published for the California Catholic Conference by the Knights of Columbus. Mission San Diego - which Is observing the 207th anniversary or its founding today - was established by Father Junipero Serra at the site of the Presidio but was moved a few years later to its present MlSSlOn Valley site. One architectural level that has been uncovered i. believed to be that of the construction Of t e "ln1.ssl!>11 church around 781 and probably mclu s the two previo hn · rr Bran ·d. James R. Moriarty, associate professor of history, described the 1971 d1S('()very or the remains of the martyred anciscan missionary, Luis Jayme, who was killed In an Indian attack that resulted in the destruction of the first church in 1775. The remams of Jayme and two other Franciscan friars were reinterred below the base of the church altar after research in church documents to confirm the identi- fica lion, Moriarty said. Therese T. Whitcomb, associate profes- sor of art, said the missions that arose from the essence of European culture under the duress of frontier conditions form California's architectural heritage. O~y when the mission heritage is fully realized and acknowledged will California find its identity, she said in her paper on California' Roman Catholic Heritage in Architecture." '.'That endowment was not a style, but a pnnc1p!e," she said. 'It embodied the concept of building sanely and stoutly in keeping with the human needs of the land. It demanded proportions and details that instill harmony and peace ·upon human sensibilities." Contributed Greatly Dr. Iris Engstrand, professor of history and a member of the executive committee of Fronteras 1976, said Jose de Galvez who as inspector general of New Spaui planned and directed the occupation of Alta California, merits recognition during the Bicentennial year. His capacity for planning and his choice of Gaspar de Portola to direct the military effort and Father Serra to establish the mission contributed greatly to the success of the effort. she said in her paper, "Jose de Galvez After 200 Years: A Retrospec• tive View"
