Stag August Conferences In preparation for the beginning of the stan- dard school year with the Fall Quarter, two student groups, the student government leaders and the editorial staff of the campus newspaper, staged simultaneous conferences in August. The student government conference was in- tended to get new Senators sworn in officially and acquainted. Also, executive board chairmen met to consider budget cuts and present and dis- cuss future plans with Vice President Jim Henry. Last item on the conference agenda was the first official student Senate meeting of the new school year. Various pieces of informal legisla- tion worked out the previous year were ofiicially passed along with the new Associated Student Budget. AS President Yuji Mitani reported his first investigations into potential academic cur- riculum changes in an Executive Message to the Senate, but he had no concrete proposals at that time. While student government leaders were dis- cussing budget proposals, editors of the student newspaper, THE WESTERN TIDE, were staging a training session for new reporters. Editor Narda Zacchino conducted various workshops to acquaint U' W?

t .A Major earth work preceding construction began during the summer for Elliott Campus, the fourth of the centers of the United States International Uni- versity, to be built on a 140-acre site near Highway 395. The Elliott Campus will be the second undergraduate college of arts and sciences of USIU, the first being Cal Western, and is scheduled to open with the Fall Quarter of 1968. Other USIU centers are the City Center and the School of Performing Arts Workerx put the inixlaing touchef on Elliott Campuf fozmdaliom. Center, both located in down- town San Diego. An international, multi-campus approach was chosen by the University instead of expansion of the present Point Loma in- stitution according to USIU President William C. Rust to en- able the University to grow with- out destroying one of its major objectives, that of offering un- dergraduate education on campus areas sufficiently small so each student may feel a part of the campus life. The decreed em- phasis of USIU is in areas of human concern and leadership in the fields of Human Behavior, Education, Law, Business, Inter- national Relations and the full program of the arts and sciences. Strong academic work on a campus that promotes wholesome living and a search for meaning- ful values in an atmosphere per- meated with the great insights of one's heritage is the combina- tion President Rust considers ideal to serve as a basis for growth and study.
