Volume LXXII, Number 21 University of Southern California Los Angeles, Californio Tuesday, October 18, 1977 Students with unsettled fee bills to face dismissal from university By Lynn Sprenger Staff Writer The day of reckoning is coming soon for students who have yet to settle their fee bills, but Jack Wagner, director of Student Accounting Services, can't say exactly when that day will be. “Ver\T soon all unsettled fee bills will be voided for nonpayment and students will be dropped from the university for nonpayment.” Wagner said. In what he termed a “very unusual situation.” Wagner noted, “While our enrollments are ahead several hundred over last fall, our settlements (of fee bills) are behind by several hundred. “Traditionally, enrollments have always been ahead of the previous year and settlements have always been ahead.” Wagner feels the situation is temporary and due mainly to late financial aid, specifically Federally Insured Student Loans and teaching assistant scholarships. “We have much of the financial aid in house now." Wagner said. “We encourage students with pending financial aid to come here (to the Financial Services Building) and apply it to their fee bills.” Wagner said some students haven’t picked up FOCUS ON COMMUNITY their student aid, even though it’s available now. Wagner said he is concerned about unpaid fee bills because "department operating budgets are based on the realization of tuition income. “The income can't be distributed to departments until fee bills are paid. If I don't distribute that income, the budgets are backed up or curtailed. "It’s just good business (to settle fee bills).” To help students with fellowships whose fee bills haven’t been settled or whose awards have been delayed, a special fellowship payroll will be distributed Thursday instead of Oct. 26. Fellowships are stipends awarded to teaching assistants and graduate students, among others. Students who haven't paid their fee bi 11s because of late aid can check on the progress of their aid in various offices in the Financial Services Building. Loan checks will be made at the Student Loan AccountingOfficeon thesecond floor.and all other checks at the Cashier's Office on the first floor Teaching assistant scholarships, tuition remission, university scholarships, California State Scholarships and other scholarships will be handled at the Credit Office, also on the first floor.

The tower, visible for several miles, plays the Westminster chimes, as well as Fight On, Conquest and the Alma Mater. DT photo by Paul Rodriguez. Live telecast of Cal game set for Bovard Making the trip up north to Berkeley will not be theonly way to see the Trojans play California this year. Those who stay in Los Angeles can see the game live at 1 p.m. Oct. 29 on wide-screen closed-circuit television for $2 in Bovard Auditorium. The screening is part of the university’s Autumn Arts Festival being held Oct. 28-31. The admission fee will be used to defray the costs of installing the equipment. Sherryl Siembab, creator of the festival and public events director forthe School of Performing Arts, came up with the idea in trying to find a way for football fans to follow the game and participate in the festival. Siembab said she “personally feels that athletics is part of performing arts,” and the game is appropriate forthe arts festival. Viewers may leave the auditorium to take in the activities at the festival and return to the game later.

The advisory committee in- A study of community housing needs and trends in the rental housing market within greater Los Angeles is being undertaken by the university’s Center for the Study of Financial Institutions. Although the study’s focus is on community rental housing and the needs ofthe elderly and low-income family, rental needs of the university will also be a part ofthe study.Chaplain Findlay, chairman of the university’s department of finance and business economics and administrator of the center, said. “Our primary focus in the study is on the community, but since the university plays a role in the rental housingsituation.it will be a partofthe study,” Findlay said. The study will also include an analysis of current Los Angeles area housing trends, projection eludes members of the city’s business, religious and educational communities. Findlay expects the center’s report on the resultsofa housing survey to be ready by the end of the year, with a report and evaluation finished in January or February of 1978. “If the program goes the way we hope, we’ll have some type of ongoing study,” Findlay said. The results ofthe study will be made available to government agencies and the private sector. “We’re not reporting to anyone in particular, though there might be some results on the city, county and the state levels,” Findlay said. “What we are doing is presenting a survey and evaluation, as opposed to setting policy and forming proposals,” Findlay concluded.
