Title
  • University Services Agency (USA) founders: Rev. Herb Schmidt (campus minister and founder of the University Interfaith Council), Paul Lee (founding chair of the Religious Studies Program), and Fr. Gerald Lasko (campus minister, assistant pastor at Holy Cross Church), at the Whole Earth Restaurant
Description
  • From http://www.ucscuic.org/about-uic: "In 1970 the Campus Ministers, together with a number of Faculty and community leaders, started a nonprofit corporation, University Services Agency (USA). Its first project was developing the Whole Earth Restaurant, which became a meeting place and venue for special lectures and student forums. As part of the agreement with the University, USA received the use of an office above the Whole Earth Restaurant and this became the campus ministry office. USA became the social action arm of campus ministry and soon started many affiliates which included the Campus Day Care Center, the Community Switchboard, the Youth Hostel Project, the Santa Cruz Food Project, The Group Home Society, Ecology Action and Recycling Center, and many other service organizations."
