Gift to business school provides for establishment of new professorship By Jennifer Chang Staff Writer A gift of more than $550,000 from a Stanford alumna will endow a new professorship to the USC Graduate School of Business Administration. The Charles L. and Ramona I. Hilliard Professorship, funded by the estate of Ramona I. Hilliard, comes totaling over $1.5 million, including donations made since 1968. The endowment for the Hilliard Professorship, which was in probate since Ramona Hilliard's death in 1991, was recently released. The funds will go toward designing a professorship based on the discretion of Jack Borsting, dean of the School of Business Administration, said Joan Hill, public relations director for the school. Borsting is uncertain of when the new professorship will be decided on. "It depends upon when the new dean comes," he said. Borsting said he has ideas for the professorship, but has not made any definite decisions. "The most critical component of an outstanding business school is a superior faculty, for the stimulation and nurture of (See Gift, page 13) Hoover group outlines road plans Robinson talks to student group tation said there are engineers working on the project but it remains in the planning stages. The date of initiation for the improvement will be solidified at the next meeting to be held in late October. The project is also attempting to create a shopping mall at Adams and Vermont. Barrera added, "We are currently negotiating with representatives from Food For Less and Danny Bakewell — the parent corporations for Boy's and Alpha Beta supermarket — in order to determine what the site of the shopping center will look like." However, Jan Golleher, a public relations representative for Food For Less, had reservations about the certainty of the site. "There has been a lot of controversy over this location. Several months ago we were asked by several news agencies if we had signed a contract with Danny Bakewell," she said. "However we are unable to comment further at this time." The committee project manager, Oscar Jauregui, could not be reached for comment. The final item of improvement on the project's schedule is the relocation of a coliseum sign that obstructs vision on the Harbor Freeway. The current (See Hoover, page 2) U.S. Peace Corps solicit for overseas employment By Sandy Ahn Staff Writer Imagine yourself in a small village, in the middle of nowhere, dancing at a fiesta with a community of people speaking another language, yet you feel accepted and understood. The Peace Corps is one way to actualize this vision — not to mention the added benefit of a deferment or cancellation of student loans. "(Through an overseas experience) you learn how to overcome a lot of obstacles because you're exposed to things you never have to deal with here in the U.S.," Peace Corps Recruiter David J. Aguirre said. The recruiters at the Peace Corps booth set up in front of Commons Monday and Tuesday answered students' questions, including Chris Kim's, "What do you do when you join the Peace Corps? . . . How do you live?" Kim, a senior majoring in computer science, said he was considering teaching math or English. He said going overseas was a "prodigal son kind of thing. You go far away and you realize what's important." Sara Vidar, a junior majoring in education, said she would join the Peace Corps to diversify herself through educating teachers in undeveloped countries. "If you have something to (See Peace, page 13) Projects include added lane, mall By BUI Byron Staff Writer The Hoover Expansion Redevelopment Project, sponsored by the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Los Angeles, has set the ball rolling toward its goal of local city improvement. The project held its latest committee meeting Aug. 19, during which they expanded upon a tentative agenda created Aug. 12.1ts acting list includes undertakings to smooth and widen Figueroa Street, create a mall at the intersection of Ad- ams Boulevard and Vermont Avenue and remove the oversized coliseum sign from the Harbor Freeway. Jennifer Barrera, head of public relations for the project, said, "Although an additional lane was created on Figueroa Street, the unevenness of the street between Adams and Jefferson has been the cause of numerous (traffic) accidents and complaints. The project is working in cooperation with the Department of Transportation to (level) and widen the street." The Department of Transpor- Jaton K.
