New university may locate in Fresno
IRVINE, Calif. ? 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. In this situation,
they would not be threatened bv the colleoe camnus vnnth-nnlv
territory."

By The Associated Press
The Citadel is facing a 50 percent
drop in applications from
black students after a black cadet
was hazed last fall, but the
Charleston military school is
broadening minority recruitment
efforts, a school official says.
"There is no way to deny that
the incident, and the fact that it
continues to surface, is going to
hamper our capacity to recruit,"
said Lt. Col. Isaac Mctts, dean of
undergraduate studies at the
state-supported college-.
As of last week, 45 black
students had applied for enrollment
this fall, about half the
number the school usually
receives by this time, Metts told
the descgretation committee of
the state Commission on llighct
Education.
Last year, 116 black students
applied to The Citadel; with 72
accepted and 36 enrolled, Metts

By The Associated Press
The House tentatively passed
legislation Wednesday that
outlaws fraternity and sorority
hazing at schools and colleges
when it poses a physical danger.
The bill, authored by Reps.
Toy Nettles, D-Florcnce, and
M c K i n I e y Washington, D Charleston,
passed on a voice
vote. Nettles said the bill is
scheduled to be given final approval
Thursday and will be sent
to the Senate for consideration.

The report by the task force
showed two-thirds of the students
polled were in favor of reopening
the club.
"The rationale behind it is that

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. The National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People also has filed
an $800,000 lawsuit against the

The legislation was spurred by
the death of Barry Ballou, 20, of
Johnsonvillc, who choked on his

Nettles said a section in the bill

The (ask force recommended
that additional costs be funded

Zuleba said the club may be

and may include a new sound
