In a recent meeting of the
board of trustees of the Uni-
versity of Dallas, several
administrative changes were
made. Robert G. Lynch, Dean
of the Graduate School of
Management, has been pro-
moted to the position of Dean
for Administration. Under his
new title, Lynch will be re-
sponsible for several depart-
ments, such as maintenance
and planning and develop-
ment and the business office.

day, departure times are 9
AM, 12 PM, 3 PM and 6 PM
for the same places. Travel

tion may be obtained from the
Mini-bus Service, Office of

Mid-morning munchies and
afternoon hunger pangs have
finally come to an end for
resident students. SAGA
Food Services has instituted
a continual feeding program
in the Haggar Dining Room to
accomodate all eating habits.
Students whose schedules
did not allow time for a
regular meal requested an
alternate eating plan. The
cafeteria now provides a con-
tinental breakfast from 9:30
a.m. to 11 a.m. and a soup and
sandwich bar from 1 p.m. to 4
p.m., besides the traditional
three meals. Also, for the late
These questions, according
to Dr. Donald Cowan, are the
basis for study in the Univer-
sity of Dallas Center for Civic
Leadership. Cowan, along
with Dr. Lyle Novinski, Dr.
Robert Sardello and Dr.
Louise Cowan were guest
speakers during the opening
of the 1978 fall semester of the
Center held Sept. 5 at the
Haggar Reception Room.

Office Locations
Many university offices
changed locations at the
beginning of the fall semes-
ter.
Admissions and Student
Life have exchanged loca-
tions, the Admissions Office
now located in Haggar, first
floor, and Student Life in
Carpenter Hall, first floor.
This change was made
largely due to Admissions
need for space. Other
changes affected News and
Information, which is cur-
rently located down the hall
from its old office on the
second floor of Haggar, and

ership became a reality in the
fall of 1977 when it opened its
doors to 18 graduate students.
The idea for the center began
through suggestions made by
a body of concerned citizens.
According to Dr. Donald
Cowan the proceeds from the
1976 Neiman Marcus Irish
Fortnight provided the
“spawning grounds" for the
program.
During the opening cere-
monies for the new term, Dr.
Cowan praised the program.

In addition to expanding its
hours, Food Services has also
gained a new director. Larry
DeVoto, an employee of
SAGA for five years, worked
at South Plains College in
West Texas and at Dobie
Center in Austin. Mr. DeVoto
has plans to create a greater
variety of foods during the
off-hour meals and is always
willing to hear any sugges-

there is going to be an em-
phasis on energy conser-

installation of flourescent
lighting, individual thermo-
stats in the rooms, and insu-

fully, this will decrease the
annual $150,000 utility biII.___
Why was there such a need
for renovation? In the 60's the
resident population was
rather low. Consequently, the
money received was only
enough for essential upkeep.
Now that the dormitories are
almost filled to capacity,
funds are available for need-
ed improvements. As present
enrollment increases, further
renovation and modification
become more feasible.

The lounge in Anselm was
also redone and is expected to
be completed by Sept. 25.
The second floor of Carpen-

More furniture for the Rath-
