Frelinger resigns for health reasons
Dr. David Frelinger, Health
Center physician since 1971, has
resigned his position effective
August 28, when his contract ex¬
pires at the end of this year’sSum-
mer Session.
Frelinger said that he is also
closing down his private practice
and leaving Southern California
for either Arizona or Colorado.
“I have a very bad case of
arthritis,” Frelinger said. “It has
gotten so bad that if I were to re¬
main here I would have to rely on
medication. Fm too young for that.
In Arizona and parts of Colorado I
won’t need the medication. I simp¬
ly have to move for my health./ ’
Frelinger said that he is sorry to
leave Loyola Marymount. “1 h*we
only good memories of this
school,” he said/ “The help here
has been especially good. I don’t
know if I’ll ever have as good help
as I’ve had these past few years. ”
Frelinger said that he has con*
tacted Arizona State University,
University of Arizona and
Colorado State University regard¬
ing possible work. “A friend of
mine at Arizona State said that
there would be an opening in a
year. The other schools have not
said anything definite, yet.
“I really enjoy student health
work,” Frelinger said. “I hope to
continue in student health work
when I leave.”
Frelinger does not expect the
University to have a hard time
finding a replacement this time.
“The American College Health
Placement Service in Denver,
Colorado, has at least 12 doctors
who are interested in coming td a
California college,” he said
New bill could trigger
increase in student fees
The Senate Education Subcom¬
mittee held a hearing May 7 on a
proposed amendment to its higher
education bill regarding the collec¬
tion of student activity fees. The
amendment would require col¬
leges and universities to collect a
membership fee from their entire
student body for any organization
which obtained a petition for the
fee from 51 per cent of the stu¬
dents, with the provision that stu¬
dents objecting to the fee could get
a refund.
tThe parent Senate Labor and
Public Welfare Committee, in ap¬
proving the higher education bill
(S 2857) April 6, deferred action on
the amendment pending a hearing.
At the outset of the hearing, Sub- ,
committee Chairman Claiborne
Pell (D-R.I.) expressed “grave
concern” about the amendment.
Sen. Alan Cranston (D-Calif.) said
he co-sponsored the amendment
because of “my firm belief” that
students should have more control
over their own affairs.
Consumer Activist Ralph Nader
said he sought the amendment to
insure fair and equal treatment in
handling of student fees. He
charged that students are treated
as juveniles by autocratic ad¬
ministrators. No matter what hap¬
pens to the amendment, he said,
students will increasingly focus
their attention on “who rules” col¬
leges and universities.
Three witnesses for colleges and
universities opposed the amend¬
ment on grounds that it was un¬
necessary and would constitute
Federal intrusion into the opera¬
tions of institutions.
“There is neither a record of:
serious abuses in this ajrea nor
evidence of a strong Federal in¬
terest in the allocation of student
activity fees,” said Jose A.
Cabranes, legal adviser of Yale
University. He spoke for the
American Council on Education
and a group of private university
attorneys.
“We have checked the informa¬
tion provided by Congress Watch,
a Nader group, and find that it pre-
, sents a partial and therefore mis¬
leading picture of the facts in¬
volved at each of the institutions
named,” Charles B: Saunders, Jr.,
ACE director of governmental re¬
lations, said in a covering letter,
^Indeed, the additional informa¬
tion we obtained suggests no
ground for Federal intervention in
the normal and orderly processes
for dealing with the student fee is¬
sue on the individual campus. ”

Financial Aid for 76
Loyola Marymount students pre¬
sently holding California State
Scholarships can expect no in¬
crease in them for the upcoming
year regardless of the fact that
LMU tuition will be increased by
$3CC to $28CC stated Larry Braxton,
director of Financial Aid for the
University.
Incoming freshmen are eligible
to receive up to J27CC on State
scholarships. However, continuing
students will be able to receive on¬
ly the maximum for the year in
which they were awarded.
Sophomores will be eligible for up
to |25GG while juniors and seniors
will be able to receive only up to
J22CC in state funds.
Braxton went on to say that
those students who Jiled for aid
before the priority filing date of
March 1 may be able , to supple¬
ment their state aid with money
from other financial aid sources.
“It is the policy of our office to
meet the financial aid needs of
each individual student as long as
the money holds out,” Braxtbn
said.
Financial aid is computed each
year for students as individuals
and will usually rise and fall pro¬
portionately with the cost of educa¬
tion and changes in family income,
regardless of certain fixed aid pro¬
grams such as California State

Rev. Randall Roche, SJ, will
take over as Head Chaplain and
Director of Campus Ministry
beginning next semester. He will
take the place of present director,
Rev. Donald Foree, SJ, who will be
going to Los Altos, California to
lead El Retiro, a Jesuit Retreat
house.
Taking Roche’s place will be
Rev. Kevin Lower, SJ, a graduate
of Loyola University, Los Angeles,
who has been working in Orange at
the Jesuit Center for the Spanish
speaking. He will reside in a dorm
and will act as the general trouble¬
shooter for the Campus Ministry
office, according to Roche.
Other key figures* in the office
will be Rev. Tom Higgins, SJ, Rev.
Vincent Mooney, SJ, Sr. Margaret
Mary Dolan, RSHM, and Sr. Agnes
Marie Schon, CSJ.
Mooney will be training readers
for liturgies and assisting couples
with plans for marriage. Higgins
will be helping with Tent Week and
teaching classes. Dolan will be
directing musicians and readers
and taking care of the various
chapels. Roche said th§t she will
focus on renovating Huesman
Chapel with banners and posters.
Schon will be running the Ministry
office and the Retreat program.
The Retreat program has grown
immensely in the last year accord¬
ing to Roche. “There will be a bet¬
ter variety of offerings for those
who want to attend retreats next
year,” he said. One example he
noted is the Christmas Retreat.
This year nine people were al¬
lowed on a four day program
whereas Roche hopes to expand it to*
four-six days with 25 people al¬
lowed to attend.
The theme for Tent Week will be
centered around the November
elections. Issues such as world
hunger will be explored in the an¬
nual week long campus exhibit.
“There are enough masses at
present. We hope to work on the
quality of them rather than offer
more,” said Roche.
He said that he hopes to imple¬
ment a program centered
йГ9ШК1
the new “Rite of Penance.” He
said he will probably take the pre¬
sent Chaplains office and convert it
into a place where people can have
personal confessions at any time of
the day. “There will be group
penance experiences planned too,”
according to Roche.
Roche noted that he hopes for a
new office for Campus Ministry,
across from the Terrace Room on
the first floor of Malone. The office
\yould have a lounge, a meeting
room which would be convertible
to a multi-media room, a place for
twilight retreats, and five offices.
“We are still working with the
architect on the technicalities, but
we hope to have the office ap¬
proved and built by next January,”
said Roche.
REV. DONALD FOREE will leave
his post as Director of Campus
Ministry to become Director of the
Jesuit retreat house, El Retiro, in
Los Altos, California.
