Once a 13.000 acre, privately owned ranch Malibu has definitely changed over the years. The construction of the Pocific Coast Highway In 1929 lead to many of those changes.

V-.I Parking was the change that pro-bobly received the most complaints. Residents of the dorms were no longer allowed to pork in from of the dorms on weekends. They could drive in but had to turn in their identification cards when they went Through the gotes and could not stay longer thon 00 minutes. Commuter students were no longer allowed to pork in the lower chapel lot os this was now reserved for faculty. Students comploined a lot. but It wosn't really so bad. Students got o ot of exercise and excellent experience in parallel parking. There were also some big changes •n student’s eating hobits. The galley become more than just a sandwich ond cola ploce. The galley added exotic fruit drinks, boked potatoes, dell sandwiches by the inch, ond troil mix to its menu. The cafeteria also underwent some honges. The Marriott bought out Sogo and took over the cotering services. The entrance to the cafeterio was moved oround so thot students got their hot meal last, thus ossuring thot It would still be hot when they sat down. Overseas programs did not escope the wove of change, either. The program in London was expanded to run the whole year insteod of just the winter and summer trimesters. Plons were mode to turn the Italy program into a full year program as well and Dr. Carl Mitchell made plons to leave Malibu in order to run the progrom in Italy. Most of the changes were positive ones ond students adapted quickly. Changes ore always hard to adjust to, but Pepperdine students took most things in stride and enjoyed the extra conveniences brought on by the changes. WENDY AGIN
