Newspaper the University Southern California Time-Warner announces its endowment of cinema chair By Roger Sequeira Staff Wnter Last night, traffic along 34th Street was a little busier than usual. On first glance, one might have noticed that the loading dock flanked by the Carson, Lloyd and Lucas buildings was decked out for a major event, complete with canopy, wine reception and paparazzi. A closer look would have revealed the likes of George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Dustin Hoffman and John Singleton, who arrived at the celebration for an endowment to the USC School of Cinema, in honor of late Time-Warner Chairman Steven J. Ross. President Steven Sample said the $2 million dollar endowment for the dean's chair to the School Cinema-Television "will help us attract and retain excellent deans." Gerald Levin, chairman and chief executive officer of Time-Warner, dedicated the endowment and installed the first chairholder, present dean of the School of Cinema-Television, Elizabeth Daley. The ceremony for the endowment focused on Ross' humanitarian nature and his respect for creativity. "He wanted all of us to heal the scars of our city, our country and our planet. He was always asking, 'What can we do to (See Cinema, page 6) Dental School plagued by thefts Burglaries account for over $34,000 in lost equipment already this year By Allison Vana Staff Writer Dental school officials are suspecting outsiders in connection to a rash of thefts in the School of Dentistry, already amounting to $34,441, topping last year's total loss of $19,289. Sgt. Craig Baxley, of the Department of Public Safety, said the problem is a recurring one. He added that though there has been an increase in the cost of the thefts, the actual number of thefts has not increased. The main reason for increased losses is a theft in June of this year, when $10,409 worth of equipment was reported stolen from a locker, Baxley said. "This problem has existed for the 16 years that I've been here and has probably existed long before that. (Thefts) usually happen a lot around the end of the semester because, with finals coming up, students sometimes need equipment to practice with. Also, sometimes they take equipment to replace what they've lost since the beginning of the year. "There is no real pattern to these thefts. They are just a random thing that happens a lot around campus. At the dental school, items are mainly taken out of equipment cabinets over- night. We try to preach to students to keep their cabinets locked and to not leave their equipment unattended," Baxley said. Due to the amount of activity and traffic in the dental school throughout the day, however, such actions are not always possible. 'The way the dental school is set up, you walk through a lot of cubicles. When I'm trying to see a patient, I have to leave my cubicle a lot of times to talk to peo-(See Thefts, page 6) Wilson veto riles campus Democrats By Duncan Martell Staff Writer In a press conference yesterday, the USC Trojan Democrats blasted Gov. Pete Wilson's veto of a bill that would have provided $200 million in low-interest college loans to middle-class students. The press conference at USC was one of more tnan 12 held at campuses across the state — including Occidental, UCLA and Cal State L.A. — to express students' disgust at and contempt for Wilson's veto earlier this week, said Kari Cutler-Chisholm, executive director and treasurer of the Trojan Democrats. Cutler-Chisholm, a junior majoring in po- litical science, called Wilson's veto of SB 589 for a second time "an affront to the middle class." Under the California Alternative Loan Program bill (Cal-Loans), State Treasurer Kathleen Brown would have leveraged $6 million in existing funds of the California Student Loan Authority, which Brown chairs. The funds would have been used to finance as much as $200 million in low-cost loans at fixed rates as low as 7 percent in today's market. Bonds would have been issued to provide the money, and student borrowers would pay off the bonds as they made payments on their loans. Jennifer Openshaw, a press secretary for the treasurer, said, "At least 10 other states already have similar programs in place, and six of those have already issued bonds." This program, she said, would be of no cost to taxpayers. Openshaw said the program is needed because "Washington hasn't been able to come through with help on immigration and other issues, and we should help ourselves where we can. "We shouldn't wait for Washington," she said. (See Wilson, page 2) Shout it out Laural WIHIama / Dally Trojan Trojan yell leaders encourage audience participation at the Homecoming rally last night. At the festivities, USC’s Order of the Torch announced Mr. and Ms. USC for 1993-94. See story, page 3.
