Fresno might be the location for a 10th University of California campus, said UC President David Gardner. "The new campus is not imminent, but the prospect is there," Gardner said. "Fresno is good because there is nothing in the northern valley area." The new campus might prevent UC overcrowding, but other options arc also being considered. Among them are capping enrollment at Irvine and San Diego and broader general requirements for students. Kent State suggests fee elimination KENT, Ohio ? A Kent State University committee of faculty, staff and students has recommended the elimination of a $20 graduation fee and a $3 course withdrawal fee. Although the 10-person committee suggested that some fees stay the same, it recommrdl'd fhnt k'm I <lrr^r\ th<? ornrlinli^n I'"" hr?."incrt it is unpopular with students. It also said the course withdrawal fee was serving only as a "nuisance fee" because the cost of collecting it exceeded the money received. Wesleyan proposes medieval studies MIDDLETOWN, Conn. ? Wesleyan University has proposed a major in Medieval Studies because of growing popularity of the classes. The program would study the 300 A.D. to 1500 A.I), timeframe, with areas of concentration in art history, archaeology, literature and philosophy. The student would be expected to learn a second language and spend a semester abroad. Fifteen students are currently studying for a medieval concentration within another department. Food program increases enrollment SALT LAKE CITY, Utah ? A new food program, improvements in living quarters, and changes in recruiting policies have led to the highest student application rate for University of Utah residence halls in six years. "A lot of students had a misconception of what goes on in the dorms," Dan Adams, director of residential living said. "They were under the impression that living there was a big party." One of the changes included revising the food program. In the past, students had to eat in the residence halls on an all-you-can-eat basis at specific times. This year, student identification cards are used as charge cards and students may eat anywhere on campus. College to build retirement village MENTOR, Ohio ? Lakeland College plans to build a retirement home on its campus to help recruit senior citizens to sign up for classes. "We have 450 undeveloped acres, and of that we'd like to devote 150 to a retirement village for retired teachers and other likeminded professfonals," Lakeland President James Catanzaro said. "You'd have maybe 200 to 300 people with so much to offer." Retired people often complain they see only other old people, he said. "They miss the energy of younger people.

The college has 1,960 cadets. Alba 1 cwis, chairwoman of the desegregation committee, suggested the school and its development foundation consider increasing the number and value of scholarships awarded to minority students. On Oct. 23, five white upperclassmen wearing white sheets and towels entered the room of black cadet Kevin Nesmith shortly after midnight. They uttered obscenities, and left a singed paper cross in the room. The hazing resulted in investigations by the college, the state Human Affairs Commission and the State Law Enforcement Division.
