Jollivette and Susan Bonnett, associate Public Affairs director, contacted officials at Dartmouth. M I T . and Columbia, among others who had recent inaugurations, to discuss the best way to plan UM's inauguration Jollivette said he has received several thousand replies to the invitations sent to students.

V.__________________________________________________________________s Saga Makes Policy Changes By GEORGE HAJ Head News Writer The efforts of the presidents of the various UM residence halls have led to changes in campus dining halls.

"We re stressing the fact that this is really important. Even if you don't renew your certification, you'll know what to do if someone has a heart attack," said McCabe. "With all the crime, nobody is concerned about health-related problems But. even 18 to 25-year-olds can be victims of a heart attack," said McCabe, "It’s a great start to making the university a safe place. “We re reaching out to all student organizations and departments; so far, we've had some luck," she said An added incentive for students to participate is the possibility of network coverage. Television reporters such as Morry Alter and Art Carlson have been informed of the program. Also, McCabe believes that “P.M.Magazine” will cover one of the classes. During Stress Week, Michael Snow, who is from Alpha Relaxation, will demonstrate relaxation and biofeedback from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the first floor of the Student Union. Other activities will take place on the Patio from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. on both days. Kathy Greenlee will perform exercises to release tension, and Dansemble will dance it away. Another special feature will be Kathy Pilafian's demonstration of basic yoga techniques for relaxation. During these two days there will be tables in the Breezeway with materials about stress Eaarolling was one of many events that were part of the Creek Week Weekend Warm-Up. Co-sponsored by Schlitz Beer, the festivities on Saturday and Sunday served as a preliminary to Creek Week and featured a Fun Run and Special Events Night at the Rat. For the full story see page 4. ___________ eration of SAGA’s three UM cafeterias. The changes will all be implemented within a few weeks. Whether they will be extended next semester or next year will depend on the cafeteria turnout. T he changes are as follows: • Students on the ten-meals-per-week plan, which previously allowed those students SAGA meals only on weekdays, may now eat two meals on the weekends for an extra $1 fee. This change affects the approximately 380 students who are on the 10-meal plan. • Beginning Monday, the hours of cafeteria service will be increased to allow students to gel breakfast later in the morning and — in one dining hall — dinner later in the evening. Both the 960 and 730 cafeterias will be open an additional half-hour for breakfast, from 9:30 until 10 am. Also, in the 960 Cafeteria, thal hall will be open until 6:45 p.m., as opposed to 6:30 p.m. Sokol said the RHCCC asked for these additions because the committee members had heard many requests for such changes from students on the various meal plans. • SAGA will replace the often malfunctioning soda machines in 960 and 730. • There will be a basic menu in all cafeterias, with different meals offered in 960 and Mahoney/Pearson. • Effective immediately, a guest meal card for students who are not on a meal plan may be purchased with a $25. The students will be charged meal card prices. The RHCCC is composed of four members: Geoff Roberts, president of Mahoney/Pearson; Gino Scial-don, president of 1968; Mark How-lin, president of 960: and Sokol, who is president of Eaton Hall and the apartment area. Sokol described the group as "a very powerful united group of the presidents of the dorms whose goal is to work with the administration to work for the benefit of the students.” While Sokol said the RHCCC has accomplished a great deal this semester, Roger Fry. who heads SAGA, said; "We have extended service hours before on our own, and will do so whenever the need exists. “The RHCCC has always been around, but they have had more contact with us this semester " Fry said the whole issue of increasing the service hours in the cafeterias is economics. Then are thirty employees working in those cafeterias, and the cafeterias cannot be kept open if there are not enough customers, Fry said. “We will try to see if that solves the problem." he said "We are cooking for the average student, and he does not exist. We never want to lose concern and compassion for the individual. If there are freshmen who have a schedule conflict. we will make arrangements to let him eat in the Hurricane." In addition to the changes in the dining halls, starting in February, the Faculty Club will be open for students on Friday nights, by reservation only. Presentation of a meal card will entitle each student to a 25% discount in the club. The RHCCC is supported by the Undergraduate Student Body Gov-ernment(USBG), with President Bill Mullowney participating as an ex-officio member of the RHCCC. Mullowney said that he “was really impressed with the way they |REiCCC members | asked questions and got answers” This is the first time that USBG has worked closely with the RHCCC to react to the concerns of dormitory residents. Sokol said that next semester the RHCCC will be working on other ways to improve the life of students in the residence halls. Skills Seminar Held By MARIAE. SALAZAR News Writer twelve i ne slut*ents from the University of m , Par’m*nt of Architecture have been fl Peru to present a developmental pro-|,' r tllp City of Lamolina. the f'rst time that a foreign country has tied s iri ail American university to do such a lot r rProfessor Felipe Prestamo of the °t Engineering and Architecture p mayor of the City of Lamolina in Lima, H0 ’he department of architecture architectural master plan, to fid Prestamo. "The 12 best students of the department were chosen to go to Peru in a two-trip program to the City of Lamolina." The first group leaves today, the second in May Students leaving today include Eduardo R Ferrer, Jose Bendezu, Wilson Hernandez, Xordi Martin, and George Kousoulas. According to Ferrer, one of those leaving todav the city of Lamolina is about the same size as Coral Gables and is an “urban, sporadic, wealthy area that needs planning." Ferrer said the Peruvian government asked the University to present planning alternatives for the city The first trip will be a fact-fjnding project to gather additional information about the city and its peculiarities, said Ferrer. Each of the students will devise a plan on how to best develop the city. Either one of the plans will be chosen, or several will be combined. But if the governmemt rejects the proposal, "we will be back with specific details about what the government wants us to design,"said Wilson Hernandez, another student in the group Prestamo said the UM Architecture group will be received by the president of Peru in a gala dinner during which keys to the city will be given to the students^ By STEVEN A. BOYER News Writer A skills seminar was held Thursday night in the 960 Complex study lounge. The project, sponsored by the Alpha Lambda Delta honor society, was undertaken in conjunction with Fritzi Chowning, director of the Reading and Learning Skills Center (RLSC), who gave a two-hour presentation on developing more effective problem-solving skills to the 20 students in attendance. The seminar was in essence a mini-workshop similar to one offered each semester by RLSC. Topics included in the program were lecture note-taking, textbook reading and note-taking, review and test-taking strategies, time management, improving concentration and memory, and dealing more effectively with instructors. The study skills method is geared towards first semester students because. as Chowing contends, "They aren't familiar with university courses, and the techniques that are so different from those they are used to taking in high school." Although the majority of students who take advantage of Chowning's pine-hour, twice week- ly sessions are those aspiring to medical, law and other graduate schools, Thursday night’s seminar consisted of mostly freshmen and sophomores. Chowning says she would one day like the learning skills approach to become a credit-bearing class for a student's freshman year “It is an organized system for learning, retaining and retrieving previously learned material,” says Chowning, "because it teaches how to process information in order to overcome memory limitations." The seminar is the first project organized by active members of Alpha Lambda Delta, a national organization that emphasizes academics and scholarship for the benefit of the university. Officers and members alike decided on the study skills seminar because so many students have trouble studying for exams The study skills process is designed to let students learn how to relate the general to the specific. Chowning maintains that she can "enumerate techniques and strategies, but there are no simple secrets or cur'e-alls” Added Chowning: "It’s up to the individual to determine how much he or she wants to work." •oote Inauguration: everything Is Set
