The forum is designed to provide up-to- date information about law school admis- sion policies and financial aid. Students can obtain admission materials and view a videotaped program about the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT). "The forums provide the optimal set- ting to gather law school information at one time and place from those who know the facts - admissions deans and direc- tors, faculty, students and alumni," said Beth O'Neil, associate executive director of the Law School Admission Council, which administers the LSAT.

It is sponsored by the Law School Ad- miss ion Council and the participating American Bar Association-accredited law schools. Similar forums were held this fall in New York City, Atlanta, Chicago and Boston. Schools participating in the Los Ange- les Law School Forum include all 16 ABA- accredited law schools in California, including Boalt Hall, UC Davis, UCLA, tl_astin£ College of the Law, the Univer- sity of n Diego, USC and Stanford.

Strachan, 46, was appointed law dean at USO last April, becoming one of just two female law deans among Califor- nia's 16 American Bar Association-ac- credited law schools. She is a 1968 graduate 9f Boalt HaU~t the 1Jiuvers'ity of California, Berkeley, ancrnad been teaching at theUniversity of Utah College of Law prior to her appoint- ment at USD. Strachan came under fire after a news- paper article was published in August in which she said she personally opposes abortion, but supports a "woman's right, with her doctor and religious counsel- ors," to choose for herself, in accordance with the law. After the article was published, the Rev. William Mooney, pastor of the Blessed Sacrament Church in San Diego, asked the Presbyteral Council to consider at its last meeting whether to seek Stra- chan's ouster. The council consists of'di- ocesan clergy who consult with the bishop on various issues. "I can't believe that in this whole coun- try, they couldn't find a Catholic jurist who is against abortion,'' Mooney said. Strachan's appointment was discussed by the council in executive session about a week ago, but no statement was issued, according to the Rev. John Proctor, pas- tor of the Corpus Christi Church in Bonita and a member of the council. But Proctor said he thought "it would be a good idea to replace her.'' Monsignor Richard Duncanson, chan- cellor of the San Diego Diocese, a Presby- teral council member, and a member of •he USO Board of Trustees, said that Bishop Leo T. Maher told those at the meeting that priests who have complaints should write him a letter and that he will "take it under advisement." Strachan was appointed dean of the 1,100-student law school following a year- long search by a 14-member committee. The committee, according to Furay, was looking for a dean who could attract wom- en and minority faculty to the law school and upgrade its curriculum. Strachan is the first woman dean of the law school and one of 11 women law deans in the United States. At the Univer- sity of Utah College of Law, she played a key role in conducting a comprehensive curriculum refonn effort. During the interview process for facul- ty and deans, Furay said the committee

Jerome boosts USD hopes

gered through the 1988-89 campaign with five freshmen and as many sophomores on a 13-man squad. Thr freshmen tarted - guards Gylan Dottm and Wayman Strick- land and forward Kelvin Woods. "It was a mess last year," Egan .aid "We'd have treaks where we'd look good. But the treaks where we looked bad were a lot longer. We w re young and some of the really expenenced teams in the West Coast C f rence h mmered on us. "When you hit tough times, it be- comes a qu ti f do you dig In or do you fold up? But more often than not, the kid we were playmg rallied me mstead of m rallymg them." And Jerome spent many hours in the gym helpmg to rally the players. '' He worked hard last year," Egan said. "He coun led a lot of players. It' one thing for a young player to ear something from a coach, and it' quite another to hear it coming from a player of John' stature." And Jerome has stature. Physical- ly, he carries 225 pound on his 6- foot-8 frame. As a ha ketball player, ome of th faithful around the USO Sports Center are comparing Jerome's ab1hties to ike Whit- ma h who led the Torero to their first conference title and CAA Tournament berth in 1983-84. "I'm not a na by player," Jerome aid. "I don't have great quickness. I'm not a great leaper. But I'm de- cent. And I w nt th ball and I play hard . "I won't h v many slams. I'm ju t on of th players who will finish with 15 points and 10 rebounds and hav ev ryone wondering where I ot th m." Added t:gan "If you like to see ba ketball played by someone who mak the mo t out of h1 under- standiqg of the game, you'll like the way J rome plays." Egan has had his eye on Jerome sin h wa in high school 10 Pr colt, Ariz. But Jerome decided to attend Mesa Community College out of high chool This was not bad n w for USD Ince former Torero tartcrs Pete Murphy and Mark Manor opted for Sao Diego after two

years at Mesa. But Jerome threw Egan a curve after leading Mesa to a 30-6 record and a third-place finish m the 1987 National Junior College Champion- ships. He opted for Arizona State. "In my heart even then, I wanted to come to USO," Jerome said. "But I wasn't thmking about myself. My family and friends wanted me to stay closer to home I came around to what they wanted. I had a lot of op- tion and I made the decision to go to Arizona State." But Jerome and then Sun Devil coach Steve Patterson didn't bit it off. "Commg here was the best move I could have made," said Jerome, a psychology major. Jerome' pre ence has allowed Egan to make a number of adjust- ments th.is fall. Last season, the Toreros went with two perimeter players and three in- side player . With Jerome on the in- side with 6-9, 240-pound junior Dondi Bell, the 6-5, 230-pound Woods and the 6-8, 225-pound Shawn Hamilton (another Mesa CC product), Egan will go to three perimeter players and two insiders The perimeter will be manned by the likes of Cottrell (12.2 points per game, 65 percent shooter from the floor), Dottm (12.0 average), Strick- land, Pat Holbert (another Mesa CC product), Anthony Thomas and Randy Thompson. "Jerome is helping us in several areas," Egan said. "Last year, we had to count on Dondi to help us score inside. This year, he will be able to concentrate on his strengths of rebounding and defense. Dondi has played as well as I've ever seen him play this preseason. "Everyone feels the addition of Jerome, Hamilton and Holbert have made us better. We're going to run more. One thing Egan won't have to push this year will be his freshmen class, led by Brooks Bernhard of Escondido High and Joe Temple from Lincoln Prep. Last year, Dottin, Strickland and Woods were forced into action, because Egan was desperate.
