Rick Hagan has been the "man behind the scenes" since 1980 when he Ri:k came to USO and took the position of Director of Housing. When he came to this campus there were only a handful of housing areas in existence. As the university grew (and contin– ues to grow) there have been many changes and additions and Rick has played a major role in each. His first endeavor was to assist in the planning and building of Missions B back in 1981. He has learned much since then, and he is proud of USD's most recent accomplish– ment, the opening of Tecolote Village. Rick has committed himself to being a "man with a mission" when it comes to the yearly task of improving residential living areas. Although Rick would like to make all the necessary renovations and upgrades , he is constantly challenged to do as much as pos– sible with the limited funds allotted. This does not deter him however, as his commitment to creating a better environment for the students is his ultimate goal. This edition of the Alcala is dedicated to Rick Hagan for his commitment and accom– plishments throughout the years. Congratula– tions!
