PRESIDENT DISCUSSES UNIVERSITY'S GOALS Biggest not always best - ask USO students

''Alot of families and students are willmg to make sacrifices for a quality education. On the other hand, we have the responsibility to see that they get it, ortce they enroll here," Hughes said. "We have an increasing number of financial aid packages available to our students. In almost all cases, work is involved About 80% of the students are workmg either full or part-time. They are employed either on or off campus. "The financial aid office works closely with the students to find jobs for them." Hughes recalls that when he moved into the president's office in 1971, commg here from a vice presi- dency at Northern Arizona Urnversl- ty in Flagstaff, he had some fl nan- (Cont.on page B-14, col. 1) ..

t10n at a pnvate university such as USD, the students and thetr parents must face higher costs. The tariff is considerably less at one of the state umver51t1c ·. Hughes estimated the cost for a student carrymg a full load and l!ving on campus for an academic year averages about $4,500. That 1s broken down into room and board about $1,600, tuition, $2,400, and the remainder for books, recreation, clothes and miscellaneous. Acheck at San Diego State showed a California resident living on cam- pus and taking a comparable class load would pay about 2,600 a year. The major differ nee is m th1• tuition or fees Since State is supported by state funds, the fees for an average stu- dent amount to only $218.

The buildings, dominated by the white-and-blue domed Church of the Immaculata, can be seen for mi!P.S around. "We are beautifully situated, you mu5t admit," Hughes said, smiling pointing toward the wmdow over- looking the campus. "People who live m other parts of the tale know about bow ideal our climate is. And for those who live in the M1dv.est and East, that's all we have to do Is show our film in the winter, Ith San I) go's beach s and people surfmg They 0ock out here' !But to njoy the benefi of educa-

"Students here get acquainted with everyone in their classes, not just the person on either side of them." Hughes, th first lay president of the university, feels the Catholic heritage of USO is an her reason enrollment Is high. Before he was appointed five years ago, it was operated by the Catholic diocese or San Diego. "USO being Catholic encourages parents to send their children here," he said. "We represent certa n moral values. More and more par- ents, whether ihey are Catho' c; or not, want their children to be n

Bigger isn't necessarily better, es~ pec1ally if you're talking about the size of a university. At least that's the reasonmg of Dr. Author E. Hughes, the tall, grayrng president of the University of San Diego, m explaining why growing numbers of students are enrolling there. "I think there are several reasons for choosing USD over the larger state unlversities," he said in an Interview. "The fin,t is the siw of the Institu- tion. Whereas our enrollment i around 3,300, San Diego State, for example, has 30,000 and UCSD, 11,000. "What small means to the incom- mg ~tudents is that they are happier

The seminary Is now located off-campus, but still close. "But there is no connecl!on between it and the university," Hughes said "On campus, the seminarians art> the same as any other students."

Maher's publicly stated opposition to the extension of Black's Beach would provoke a rather heated controversy in the San Diego community I fail to appreci- ate _the assertions of some (e.g., R. Blair )lame m Reader's Viewpoint 12-17-76) _who would deny the bishop his c_onst1tut1onal right to express his op1mon merely because of the tax- exempt status of the church It is true that the Founding Fa- thers of this country wisely separat- ed church and state; but it is not equally true that this separation amounts to a disenfranchisment of c1lizens who are actively involved in t~e church. Bishop Maher, like all diocesan priests, pays personal in- come tax; Roman Catholic people, who compnse one quarter of the Amencan population, pay taxes· and Roman Catholic institutions pay taxes on those segments of their property not_directly related to relig- 10us, educational or charitable pur- poses. It is my hope that in a free society J)eople (including bishops) mav con'. , tmue to exercise their rights of free speech w1thout having veiled threats hurled at thc>m by the Ill-informed Disagreement and discussion yes· but silencing, no. Keep up th~ good work, bishop; you certainly are rat- tling some cages! A rebuttal to R. Blair Maine re- marks critical of Bishop Leo T. Maher: he says, quote, "As long as the church _accepts its special tax exemption 1t should not interfere wit~ tax-supported recreation." Mr. Mame says the bishop has no right to p~each to tax-paid city manager. Bishop Maher 1s a U.S. citizen and also a U.S. taxpayer. Should Bishop Maher lose his rights because he is a Roman Catholic bishop? ALVARO L. SOTELO San Diego REV. LAGRENCE P. DOLAJ\ p irector of Campus Mimst!],

"The altnllon rate among the stu- dents here at USD at one time was high, about 12%, between fall and spring semester Last year, it was down to one-half of 1%.

On the financial front, USD has done quite well, thanks to various programs initiated by Hughes and "We have the President's Club - people who give $100 a year to the university - which is very loyal," "We have a corporation program, where firms are solicited.

USO se ks to extend win streak In seeking their ninth straight victory against no losses, the University of San Diego Toreros would like to have less trouble with Northridge State to- night at Alcala Park than they did with the same basketball team Dec. 2. USD nosed out the Mata- dors by a single point, 6$-64, m the first meeting. It will be the Toreros' last home game until Jan. 17 · They will be on the road next week, playing the Santa Clara Broncos Tues- day night and Hayward State a week from tonight. Northridge's record is a bit deceiving. Three of its losses have come at the hands of major colleges in- cluding fullerton St~te Stanford and Loyola. The Matadors' top scorer is Lon Trotter, a 6-7 center, with an average of 11.6 points per game and a rebounding average of 6.2. The first meeting of the quintets was so close that it took Don G-ibb's baseline jumper at the buzzer to decide the outcome. Ron Cole, who scored 19 points against 1\ orthridgc earher this month, tops the Toreros with 127 points for the seven games he has played. His percentage is .577, well ahead of runner- up Buzz Harnett's .515. Har- nett is second in points, too, with 117 - 12 rnon• than F,dd1e Davis.

Michlemore has been hampered by a badly-bru- ised elbow. Both are again ready to go as the Toreros await tonight's game m La Jolla. USD is closing m on its school record for consecu- tive victones.
