The Faces of Volunteerism at USD

UN IVERS IT Y D F SAN DIE GD

I n many ways, this issue is about the future-posing questions, offering solutions and simply reflecting the signs of the times. Most of the questions come from the state of California, where lost jobs, overcrowded schools, urban decline and depressed real estate val­ ues have led Californians to question just how gold­ en the future of the Golden State can be. While many are fleeing the state to sample the economic climates to the east, others remain convinced the state will recover-if some changes are made. USD experts-and some alumni who have survived and succeeded through personal setbacks themselves­ discuss California's "State of Shock" on page 10 of this issue. One of the themes frequently brought up in any discussion of the economy is adaptability-both in terms of the workplace and the community. The jobs of the 1990s will not follow the pat­ terns of previous years, experts predict, and workers should be flexible. There will be fewer jobs in the traditional corporate sector-the 9-to-5 jobs-and more jobs in non-corporate environments. In "Working 5-to-9" on page 16 of this issue, we talk to some USD alumni who spend their days in ways that show just how diversified the workplace can be. And, finally, there is adaptability within the community. As funding for government and state social services becomes less reliable, it increasingly falls to us to help ourselves-and our neighbors. USD's values-based education has always stressed to students the importance of altruism, and as the university has grown and diversified that focus has only become stronger. Some two-thirds of USD undergraduates now participate in some form of community volunteer work during their college years, and many continue this commitment after graduation. Our cover story for this issue, "Friends in Deed," looks at a few of USD's student volun­ teers. Despite the outlook for economic recovery, their story is one of a positive future. D N T E N T s

U 5 D Last year, more than 350,000 Californians fled the Golden State in search of a better life. Not since the Dust Bowl days of the 1920s-when 86,000 Midwesterners headed West seeking the elusive "California Dream"-has there been such a flux of dis­ satisfied Americans relocating across state lines. But for these pioneers, the cry is "Eastward, Ho." Layoffs, business failures, When the nation's economic downturn first hit on the East Coast and spread westward, many Californians sat back thinking overcrowded schools and the state-once an economic dynamo-was insulated. But no longer. As the rest of the nation shows slight signs of economic a depressed real estate recovery, California remains in the midst of the harshest reces­ sion since the Great Depression.

Viewed as a nationwide model as recently as the mid-1980s, California's state educational system has been steadi­ ly slipping for the past eight years and is now below the national average. And the state's financial future doesn't look too bright, either. The state budget finally passed by the California legisla­ ture in September was nothing if not austere. It's no wonder that a large number of Southern Californi­ ans-frustrated by the sour business climate, a shortage of affordable housing, government regulations and traffic snarls­ are looking for greener pastures in places like the Pacific North­ west and Central Texas. Some have been forced to make a move by a shrinking job market, particularly in defense-related industries, but others have decided that the Golden State is too tarnished to live up to their expectations. Traffic, smog, crime and high property taxes have driven some away. Other, younger people have left to follow jobs or to find a peaceful, more rural area to bring up their children. Some will be back when they discover that the grass isn't always greener on the other side, but California might well not have jobs for them.

California's 1992-93 budget, which lowers the floor for spending on education and also contains sections discouraging school districts from suing for more money, is one that presumes the California economy will rebound before the fiscal year ends on June 30.
