Destined 

for 
Distinction 


The  decision  to  attend  a  universi- 
ty is  one  that  every  student 
should  consider  carefully.  Sev- 
eral factors  that  weigh  heavily  in 
the  decision  are  the  size  of  the  universi- 
ty, the  cost  of  tuition  and  books,  degree 
programs  offered,  difficulty  of  applica- 
tion and  entrance  requirements,  and 
possibly  what  sports  programs  are  of- 
fered. The  combination  of  these  factors 
produces  a  distinct  picture  of  a  universi- 
ty. Once  all  of  these  variables  have 
been  studied,  a  student  may  finally 
discover  a  university  that  he  would  like 
to  attend. 

uses  was  established  in  1967  to 
continue  the  nursing  education  pro- 
gram that  was  abolished  by  Spartan- 
burg General  Hospital.  The  regional 
campus'  first  home  was  the  basement 
of  Spartanburg  General,  but  the  rapid 
growth  of  the  student  population  ne- 
cessitated a  move.  However,  the  stu- 
dents continued  to  enroll  in  the  univer- 
sity, which  provided  the  support  to 
warrant  the  construction  of  the  Admin- 
istration Building  on  what  was  to  be  the 
final  home  of  USC-Spartanburg.  Such 
growth  has  continued  through  1990, 
thus  enabling  the  Spartanburg  campus 
to  expand  into  the  modern  facility  it  is 
today. 

For  twenty-two  years,  USCS  has 
served  the  community  by  educating  its 
young  people  at  a  reasonable  cost. 
Without  this  university,  many  young 
adults  would  have  had  to  leave  the 
Spartanburg  area  for  an  affordable  edu- 
cation, or  possibly  would  have  not 
attended  college. 

During  the  1989-90  academic  year, 
approximately  3500  students  attended 
the  University  of  South  Carolina  at  Spar- 
tanburg. Thus,  through  their  atten- 
dance, 3500  students  affirmed  that 
USCS  is  a  distinct  university.

Academics 


It's  such  a  small  thing,  the  diploma.  A  tiny 
rectangular  booklet  with  your  name  in  fancy 
letters  and  an  autograph  from  President  Holder- 
man  sometimes  does  not  match  up  with  the 
rewards  you  feel  you  should  reap  from  your  many 
hours  of  work  in  college. 

Sometimes  you  were  the  last  one  in  lab  finishing 
an  assignment  that  fascinated  you.  Other  times  the 
computers  would  not  cooperate  and  you  were 
forced  to  type  a  ten  page  assignment  over  twice. 

You  were  always  wondering  if  the  professor 
realized  that  you  had  other  classes  too.  Sometimes 
the  class  schedule  had  an  itinerary  packed  so  tightly 
with  readings  and  papers  and  midterms  you  won- 
dered if  you  could  be  a  full-time  student  on  one 
class  alone. 

When  you  did  get  into  the  classes  that  you 
needed,  you  were  there  to  learn  and  the  greatest 
feeling  of  all  was  when  you  actually  read  all  six 
chapters  for  the  next  lecture  period. 

Yes,  it  is  a  small  thing.  That  degree  does  not  match 
up  to  half  of  what  this  university  means  to  you,  but 
you  have  worked  hard  to  earn  that  degree.  There  is 
no  doubt  that  USCS  is  destined  for  .  .  .  distinction.

Going 

for  the 

Gold 


As  the  year  progressed,  encompassed 
within  was  a  year  full  of  sports  activ- 
ities. Practice,  sweat,  pain,  and  tears 
accompanied  the  teams  through  the 
best  and  worst. 

For  each  sport,  practice  always  began  long 
before  the  start  of  the  season.  Volleyball,  cross 
country,  and  soccer  began  in  the  summer  be- 
fore the  school  year  began. 

Sweat  was  that  perspiration  that  each  athlete 
encountered  before  performing  his  best.  Pain 
was  that  agonizing  feeling  that  stemmed  from 
pulled  muscles.  Tears  were  those  streams  that 
flowed  from  the  eyes  of  students  after  watching 
their  team  play  with  intensity,  only  to  suffer  a 
loss.

There  is  an  excellent  balance  between  men  and 
women's  sports  and  between  spectator  appeal 
and  life-long  skills. 

Basketball  has  truly  arrived  at  USCS.  When 
coach  )erry  Waters  arrived  on  the  campus  of 
USCS  in  1980,  he  inherited  the  men's  basketball 
team  and  led  them  to  the  NAIA  District  Six 
National  Championship.  In  1990,  Coach  Waters 
hopes  to  repeat  although  the  team  is  young  yet 
on  the  threshold  of  winning  maturity. 

Success  of  all  fronts  has  brought  a  new  sense 
of  excitement  to  being  a  Rifle  Rouser  for  stu- 
dents, alumni,  and  friends.  The  boosters  plan  to 
follow  the  Rifles  to  away  games  and,  of  course, 
home  games  at  the  Hodge  Center  are  always 
exciting,  thanks  to  the  cheerleaders,  the  pep 
band,  and  the  dance  team. 

Through  it  all,  the  best  and  the  worst,  each 
team  member,  fan,  and  coach  contribute  to  the 
distinction  of  USCS.

As  part  of  an  added  dimension,  organiza- 
tions of  all  types  create  the  USCS  distinc- 
tion. 
Winat  does  a  club  have  to  offer  a  stu- 
dents* Members  of  clubs  are  able  to  gain  a  great  deal 
through  participating  in  organizations.  They  are 
offered  the  opportunity  to  meet  with  others  who 
share  the  same  interests,  to  learn  new  ideas,  and  to 
be  of  service  to  the  club. 

Clubs  also  allow  the  individuals  the  opportunity  to 
gain  responsibility,  especially  if  they  are  given  the 
opportunity  to  become  officers.  Many  students 
think  that  being  an  officer  is  a  glamorous  position, 
but  this  is  a  total  misconception.  Many  clubs  do  not 
succeed  because  the  officers  they  elect  do  not 
realize  the  responsibilities  that  accompany  the  posi- 
tion. 

Officers  of  any  organization  must  work  together 
to  achieve  success.  These  officers  mean  a  great  deal 
to  all  phases  of  an  organization.  All  the  meetings, 
fund  raisers,  and  special  activities  must  be  planned 
and  coordinated  by  the  officers  with  minimal  help 
from  the  advisor. 

Thus,  being  a  member  of  a  club  or  organization 
means  much  hard  work,  but  most  members  will 
agree  that  the  clubs  are  loads  of  fun. 

By  serving  the  school  and  the  community,  mem- 
bers of  organizations  show  why  USCS  is  destined  for 
.  .  .  distinction.

Beyond  the  Books 


ife  at  uses  extends  beyond  the  class- 
I  room.  As  we  look  back  to  the  1989-90 
I  school  year,  it  is  the  USCS  social  life  that 
*"  brings  back  the  fondest  memories.  This 
year,  USCS  life  included  both  campus  spon- 
sored events,  as  well  as  off-campus  events, 
from  RIOTS,  to  sporting  events,  to  parties. 
Although  USCS  is  known  for  its  academic 
excellence  and  the  beauty  of  its  campus,  the 
students  of  USCS  most  enjoy  the  many 
extra-curricular  activities  offered  here.  It  is 
through  these  activities  that  we  meet  the 
most  important  part  of  our  college  years  and 
the  things  that  we  will  remember  most  — 
our  USCS  friends.

Aging 


USCS  exists  to  serve  the  people  of  the 
people  of  the  Piedmont  region.  The  institu- 
tion maintains  low  tuition  and  schedules 
courses  at  times  convenient  to  both  full  and 
part-time  working  students.  Such  dedication 
by  the  university  ensures  that  USCS  will 
continue  to  grow  in  the  future,  and  become 
one  of  the  most  respected  institutions  of 
higher  learning  in  the  Upstate  region.

Almost  3500  students,  over  100  pro- 
fessors, administrators,  and  staff  are 
a  part  of  the  USCS  distinction. 
The  following  pages  contain  the 
participants  in  this  story.  Many  faces  are

others  are  those  of  faces  that  one  might  like

Student  Life  is  more  than  just  athletic 
games,  homecoming,  and  Wet-and-Wild 
Day.  Students  do  more  than  just  go  to 
class  —  they  get  involved. 

They  participate  in  any  number  of 
activities,  both  in  and  out  of  school, 
providing  them  with  an  opportunity  to 
meet  others.  Through  their  involvement 
with  organizations,  students  meet  with 
others  of  similar  interests  and  are  able  to 
serve  the  school  and  the  community.  In 
athletics,  the  responsibility  of  being  on  a 
team  is  rewarded  by  the  glory  of  victory, 
making  all  the  pain  worthwhile. 

Outside  of  school,  students  gather 
with  friends  and  have  a  good  time.  Some 
prefer  to  go  to  jTraxx  to  show  off  their 
new  dance  step,  some  prefer  to  go  to  the 
movies,  some  to  hear  their  favorite  group 
in  concert,  and  others  prefer  to  cruise 
and  just  hang  out  with  their  buddies. 

The  weekends  may  be  seen  as  an 
escape  from  the  previous  week  of  school 
and  a  chance  to  enjoy  one  another's 
company.  Yes,  students  life  at  USCS  is 
destined  for  .  .  .  distinction.

The  Lighter  Side 


Student  Lite  at  USCS  is  more 
than  just  books,  tests,  and  lec- 
tures. Student  Life  is  often  times 
found  outside  the  classroom.  Stu- 
dent Life  is  supporting  the  Running 
Rifles  by  attending  the  athletic 
events  and  cheering  them  on  to 
the  district  championships.  It  is 
eating  pizza  and  enjoying  enter- 
tainers such  as  Ronny  Romm  and 
Chris  Brady  at  RIOTS  on  Wednes- 
day afternoons.  It  is  being  en- 
riched by  guest  speakers  like  Neil 
Sheehan  and  Dr.  Dorothy  del 
Bueno  at  convocations. 

Student  Life  is  being  Creek  and 


proudly  wearing  your  letters.  It  is 
hanging  out  with  friends  between 
classes  in  the  Rifle  Range  or  in  the 
Hodge  Center  at  the  "scope  sta- 
tion." It  is  showing  off  your  athlet- 
ic ability  in  intramurals  and  getting 
soaked  during  Wet  and  Wild  Day. 
It  is  being  involved  in  clubs  and 
organizations.  It  is  helping  others 
through  charitable  projects  such 
as  Habitat  for  Humanity  and  Red 
Cross  Blood  Drive 

Student  Life  is  wearing  the  latest 
fads  and  fashions.  It  is  the  crown- 
ing of  Miss  USCS  and  a  Homecom- 
ing Queen.  It  is  realizing  that  every 


day  can  be  a  Monday  It  is  being 
late  for  class  and  having  to  park  in 
the  "additional  parking."  It  is  try- 
ing to  decide  on  your  major  and 
changing  it  three  times  before  you 
realize  your  "calling."  It  is 
searching  for  the  perfect  resume 
and  the  perfect  job. 

But  most  of  all.  Student  Life  is 
what  you'll  remember  the  most 
about  your  college  days.  The 
times  that  you  thought  would  last 
forever.  The  times  which  make 
Student  Life  at  USCS  "destined  for 
distinction."

New  Kids  on  the  Block 


On  August  29,  1989,  freshmen  got 
their  first  feel  of  college  life.  Freshman 
Orientation  Day  was  designed  to  in- 
troduce new  students  to  USCS  be- 
fore classes  begin.  The  day  started  in 
the  gym  where  all  the  students  were 
divided  into  touring  groups.  Group 
leaders  consisted  of  representatives 
trom  on-campus  organizations.  These 
organizations  included  the  Piedmont 
Society,  Student  Government  Asso- 
ciation, Carolana,  Carolinian,  Gamma 
Psi  Delta  Sorority,  Sigma  Delta  Psi 
Sorority,  and  Lambda  Chi  Alpha  Fra- 
ternity. The  freshmen  toured  the 
campus  making  stops  in  the  Nursing 
Building   auditorium,    the   Activities 


Building,  the  gym,  and  Tukey  Theater. 
In  each  of  these  areas,  they  enjoyed 
short  information  sessions  concerning 
the  campus  and  college  life.  After  the 
tours  were  over,  the  students  re- 
turned to  the  gym  to  hear  from  )ohn 
Gardner  of  the  USC-Columbia  cam- 
pus Freshmen  learned  more  about 
on-campus  organizations  by  visiting 
information  booths  at  the  end  of  the 
day  Games  were  provided  by  each 
organization  booth  to  increase  fresh- 
man participation.

freshmen  as  opposed  to 
upper  classmen.  I  do  not 
mind  giving  the  extra  time 
because  I  know  they  are 
getting  a  good  founda- 
tion." Ms.  lanice  Janiec, 
also  a  freshmen  advisor, 
comments  "I  really  enjoy 
it  because  I  like  students 
that  age  and  think  it  is 
important  for  them  to 
have  faculty  that  they  can 
talk  to."

Buying  the  Books 


The  one  place  at  USCS  that  ev- 
ery student  must  go  is  the  book- 
store. The  bookstore  is  staffed  by 
full-time  employees  and  students. 
It  supplies  books  for  every  class 
offered  during  the  semester.  It  also 
sells  notebooks,  pencils,  pens, 
highlighters  —  everything  one  will 
need  in  the  classroom.  School  spir- 
it is  promoted  here  by  the  sell  of 
sweathshirts,  t-shirts,  sweaters, 
and  even  baby  bibs,  all  displaying 
the  "Running  Rifle"  logo.  If  you 
want  to  munch  on  something  be- 
tween classes,  the  bookstore  can 
help  with  this  too.  Soft  drinks,  can- 
dy bars,  potato  chips,  and  other 
snacks  are  all  available  here.  The 
bookstore  is  usually  where  one 
gets  their  first  feel  of  their  new 
classes.

My  life  savings  —  Buying  his  fall 
books,  a  student  realizes  tinat  casin 
alone  won't  cover  the  cost  ot 
books. 

And  your  change  is  . . .  — 

Deanna  Blanchard,  a  bookstore 
student  employee,  assists  a 
student  with  the  purchase  of  lab 
kits.  The  bookstore  employees 
several  USCS  students. 


Students  found  out  that 
the  price  of  a  college  edu- 
cation is  not  cheap.  Not 
only  do  they  have  to  pay 
the  constantly  increasing 
tuition,  they  ais.o^have  to

Our  Men  in  Blue 


You  have  seen  them  directing 
traffic.  You  have  seen  them  writing 
tickets.  You  have  even  seen  them 
in  the  classroom  They  are  our  men 
in  blue  -  our  public  safety  offi- 
cers. Our  Public  Safety  department 
is  made  up  of  13  officers,  including 
seven  full-time  and  four  part-time 
professionals  and  tv^/o  students. 
They  protect  the  students  and 
campus  property  24  hours  a  day. 
All  public  safety  officers  are 
trained  and  certified  by  the  South 
Carolina  Criminal  Justice  Academ> 
and  have  the  power  of  statewide 
arrest.   The   officers   enforce   the 


South  Carolina  traffic  laws  and  is- 
sue regular  Uniform  Traffic  Cita- 
tions. Most  of  the  tickets  are  for 
illegal  parking  or  failure  to  register 
vehicle  but  others  have  been  given 
for  speeding,  driving  under  the  in- 
fluence, and  reckless  driving.  Pub- 
lic safety  officers  are  now  seen  in 
the  classroom.  Officers  |im  Bowie 
and  Brian  Mullinax  conduct  safety 
and  crime  prevention  programs  on 
eighteen  different  topics.  These 
topics  include  DUI  and  the  new 
laws,  rape  prevention,  drug  abuse, 
and  self-defense. 


To  Honor,  Protect,  and  Serve  —  The  University  Police 
symbol  can  be  seen  around  campus  on  public  safety

trolling the  campus  or  helping  students  with  car  prob- 
lems.

RushT',  formal  rush  is  the  act  of  enter- 
taining prospective  members  for  a 
Creek  organization.  During  this  week, 
prospective  members,  rushees,  enjoy 
learning  more  about  the  Creek  system, 
making  new  friends,  and  attending 
scheduled  events.  A  Creek  orientation 
session  was  provided  for  all  interested 
rushees  on  Wednesday,  September  6.

Hey,  What's  Cookin? 


Students  received  a  treat  as  they 
returned  this  fall.  The  cafeteria  has 
been  taken  over  by  a  new  company, 
Epicure.  Epicure  offers  more  of  a 
variety  for  students  during  lunch  or 
class  breaks.  Instead  of  the  basic 
menu  offered  before,  students  can 
decide  on  several  different  types  of 
foods.  If  the  student  is  in  a  hurry  but 
yet  wants  a  hot  meal,  he  can  eat  the 
hot,  prepared  food.  This  changes 
from  day  to  day  and  usually  contains 
meat  and  vegetables.  If  a  light  meal  is 
preferred,  the  student  can  enjoy  a 
prepared  salad,  soup,  or  deli  sand- 
wich. Students  can  also  order  ham- 


burgers, hot  dogs,  and  fries,  which 
are  prepared  as  ordered.  Breakfast  is 
also  served  in  the  morning.  For  break- 
fast, one  can  choose  from  many  items 
including  biscuits,  eggs,  and  bacon. 
Epicure  also  caters  on-campus  lunch- 
eons. Epicure  is  found  at  two  other 
local  colleges,  Limestone  College  and 
Winthrop  College.  Bobby  Barker,  di- 
rector of  Epicure  at  USCS,  says  that 
Epicure  strives  to  cater  to  the  students 
and  is  alvv-ays  open  to  their  sugges- 
tions. 


A  study  break?  —  Tonya  Waters  finds  the 
Rifle  Range  a  good  place  to  study 


Enjoying  lunch  with  friends  —  Mie  McLean,  Lori  Darby,  and  Kristie 
Davis  make  the  most  of  their  lunch  by  sharing  gossip. 

Make  a  selection  —  kelly  Cullette  avoids  the  lunch  line  and  chooses

Lunch 
Time 


Lunch  Time  is  a  favorite 
time  of  the  day  for  most 
students.  It  gives  them  a 
break  between  classes 
and  a  chance  to  quiet 
their  growling  stomachs 
that  have  embarrassed 
them  through  the  last  two 
classes.  Students  an- 
swered, concerning  their 
lunch  time  habits,  when 
questioned  "What  and 
where  do  you  usually  eat 
lunch?": 

Patty  Dotson  —  "Whopper 
with  cheese  and  fries  from  Bur- 
ger King." 

Joel  Matthews  —  "Ham  sand- 
wiches at  home." 

Sonja  Ruppe  —  "Various  food  in 
the  cafeteria." 


Gourmet  burgers  —  Epicure 
offers  a  wide  variety  to  satisfy 
any  taste.

A  Helping  Hand 


Spartanburg  Colleges  and  Universi- 
ty Chapter  Habitat  for  Humanity  was 
originated  to  channel  the  efforts  of 
college  students  to  help  build  decent 
affordable  houses  for  God's  people  in 
need.  Spartanburg  Colleges  and  Uni- 
versity Chapter  is  unique  because  it 
consists  of  four  area  colleges  — 
uses,  SMC,  Wofford  and  Converse 
Our  college  chapter  has  set  a  goal  to 
raise  enough  money  to  build  a  home 
which  is  about  $28,000.  Dunng  the 
Fall  semester,  the  college  chapter  pre- 
sented Spartanburg  Habitat  with  a 
check  for  $3000  as  our  first  install- 
ment. On  the  Spartanburg  Colleges 
and  University 
Board,  Dr.  Tom 
Davis  served  as 
vice-president 
and  treasurer 
while  Jennifer 
Chase  served  as 
president  and 
)oni  Rush  served 
as  chair  of  public- 
ity and  promo- 
tions. Gamma  Psi 
Delta  Sorority 
held  a  rock- 
a-thon  which 
generated  over 
$300  toward  our 
goal.  Along  with 
Gamma  Psi  Del- 


ta, Sigma  Delta  Psi  and  the  Freshman 
Advisory  Council  sponsored  a  side  of 
the  Habitat  House  Banks  that  were 
placed  around  campus  in  the  spnng 
semester.  Many  individuals  and 
groups  contributed  much  of  their 
time  to  help  stuff  over  5000  enve- 
lopes for  Spartanburg  Habitat  during 
late  November.  Many  students,  facul- 
ty and  staff  donated  time  to  the  con- 
struction of  houses  that  are  being 
built  by  Spartanburg  Habitat 

Getting  Involved  —  Everyone  wanted  a 
piece  of  the  action   Habitat  participates  in  all 
the  constructing  of  a  house  from  nailing  the 
walls  together  to  painting  the  final  product 


Lending  a  hand  —  Dr  Olln  Sansbury  helps  in  the  construction  of  one  of  the  houses  built  by 
Spartanburg  Habitat   Many  USCS  students,  faculty,  and  staff  got  involved  in  the  act  of  helping 

others. 

The  Finished  Product  —  This  is  an  example  of  one  of  the  houses  built  by  Spartanburg  Habitat. 

Habitat  for  Humanity  was  formed  to  help  eliminate  the  problem  of  housing  by  providing  decent 

affordable  housing  for  the  less  fortunate. 


H.A*B«I«T«A«T 


The  first  installment  —  loni  Rush,  Angela  lohnson,  and 
lenniler  Cliase  give  Bill  Ledbelter,  president  of  Spartanburg 
Habitat  lor  Humanity,  a  thetk  tor  $iOOO  The  college  chapter 
presented  this  as  their  first  installment  on  the  house  they  are 
liuilding 


Our  goal  is  five  —  Tony  Campolo,  member  of 
the  National  Habitat  for  Humanity,  spoke  to 
Converse  College  A  love  offering  was  also 
taken  to  help  with  the  building  of  more  homes. 

Working  hard  —  David  Morrison  lends  a  hand 
with  a  board  for  part  of  a  wall  of  the  house. 
Campus  chapters  feel  that  "our  love  should  not 
be  just  words  and  talk,  it  must  be  true  love 
which  shows  itself  in  action"  (1  |ohn  3:18) 

Here's  our  contribution  —  The  president  of 
Gamma  Psi  Delta  Sorority,  Jill  Bishop,  presents 
Dr,  Tom  Davis  with  a  check  for  $300  for  Habitat 
for  Humanity.  The  sorority  holds  Habitat  for 
Humanity  as  their  philanthropy  and  conducted 
a  rock-a-thon  to  raise  money  for  Habitat.

Tomorrow's  Leaders 


The  Leadership  Development  Pro- 
gram was  developed  in  the  fall  of 
1988.  The  main  objective  of  this  pro- 
gram is  to  provide  the  opportunity  for 
selected  students  to  reach  their  fullest 
potential  as  leaders.  The  program  is 
spread  over  a  two  year  period  and 
offers  between  six  and  eight  hours  of 
credit.  Students  participating  in  Lead- 
ership Development  are  challenged 
to  develop  to  their  fullest  potential  as 
a  leader.  The  program  provides  op- 
portunities to  interact  with  leaders  in 
the  community  as  well  as  leaders  on 
campus  and  includes  an  internship 
that  enables  you  to  apply  your  leader- 
ship skills.  This  internship  may  consist 


of  becoming  involved  with  communi- 
ty programs  or  campus  organizations. 
To  qualify  for  the  Leadership  Devel- 
opment Program,  you  must  be  willing 
to  make  a  two  year  commitment  and 
demonstrate  a  strong  interest.  You 
also  must  be  a  sophomore  or  junior, 
be  in  good  academic  standing,  com- 
plete an  application  form,  and  be 
chosen  by  a  committee.  The  program 
has  been  quite  successful  so  far.  This  is 
another  example  why  USCS  students 
are  "destined  for  distinction."

The 
Benefits 

Many  students  enrolled 
in  the  Leadership  Develop- 
ment Program.  The  pro- 
gram is  designed  to  encour- 
age students  to  develop 
their  leadership  abilities  and 
provides  means  for  them  to 
put  these  abilities  into  ac- 
tion. Since  the  program  be- 
gan in  the  Fall  of  1988,  the 
first  class  completed  the 
program  this  year.  Some  re- 
sponses concerning  the 
benefits  of  the  Leadership 
Development  Program 
from  participating  are  as  fol- 
lows: 

Kathy  Greene  —  "I  am  in 
my  final  year  with  the  Lead- 
ership Development  Pro- 
gram. I  now  know  what  it 
takes  to  be  a  leader  and  the 
qualities  of  a  good  leader. 
This  semester  I  will  be  doing 
my  internship  with  the  Sal- 
vation Army.  I  will  get  to  put 
to  use  some  of  the  skills  that 
I  have  learned.  I  benefited 
from  the  program  in  that  I 
learned  what  it  takes  to  be  a 
leader  and  I  can  grow  from 
what  I  have  learned.  I  rec- 
ommend this  program  for 
all  wanting  to  learn  about 
leadership." 

Jennifer  Chase  —  "Partici- 
pating in  Leadership  Devel- 
opment has  enabled  me  to 
see  that  great  leaders  are 
not  born;  they  are  real  peo- 
ple with  a  vision  that 
through  hard-work  and  de- 
termination their  visions  be- 
come reality."

Enriching  USCS 


Convocations  at  USCS  are  a  time 
for  special  programs  and  speakers. 
They  occur  eight  to  ten  times 
throughout  the  school  year  and  each 
one  usually  lasts  about  an  hour.  Con- 
vocations have  been  the  subject  of 
controversy  around  USCS  lately.  This 
is  because  the  campus  literally  shuts 
down  when  a  convocation  is  sched- 
uled -  classes  are  cancelled,  the 
library  is  closed,  and  the  labs  are 
closed.  This  is  done  in  order  to  boost 
attendance  at  the  convocation  as  well 
as  give  everyone  an  equal  opportun- 
ity to  attend  including  teachers,  facul- 
ty, and  staff.  When  asked  about  con- 
vocations, most  students  enjoy 
classes  being  cancelled  but  disagree 
with  the  closing  of  the  library,  labs, 
and  cafeteria.  They  believe  the  time 
could  be  used  to  study  if  they  were 
not  particularly  interested  in  the  con- 
vocation speaker.  Teachers  occa- 
sionally give  extra  credit  for  atten- 
dance at  convocations  and  others 


teachers  make  attendance  a  require- 
ment This  also  helps  with  attendance 
and  allows  students  to  hear  an  inter- 
esting speaker  which  they  may  have 
not  chosen  to  hear.  The  speakers  are 
chosen  by  a  convocation  committee 
the  summer  before  each  school  year. 
Convocations  have  been  a  good  tra- 
dition at  USCS  and  will  continue  to 
benefit  the  students  and  faculty  alike.

Opinions 

Convocations  have  be- 
come a  tradition  at  USCS. 
Each  school  usually  spon- 
sors a  speaker  during  the 
year  to  speak  on  a  subject 
related  to  the  basic  con- 
centration in  that  school. 
Students,  as  well  as  facul- 
ty and  staff,  benefit  from 
these  speakers.  Here  is 
what  Sonne  students  com- 
mented when  asked  their 
opinion  of  convocations: 

Tim  Rogers  —  "I  like  them 
because  classes  are  can- 
cailed!" 

Ava  Pridemore  —  "I  don't 
like  teachers  requiring  us 
to  go  —  I  believe  atten- 
dance should  be  option- 
al." 

Dana  Bucci  —  "I  really 
enjoy  the  speakers.  The 
topics  are  usually  very  in- 
teresting."

A  War  or  A  Conflict? 


Vietnam  was  a  major  focal  point 
tor  study  this  past  fall  semester  at 
uses.  Many  activities  were  designed 
for  discussion  and  exploration  of  this 
topic  The  Fine  Arts,  Language,  and 
Literature  division  of  the  School  of 
Humanities  and  Sciences  sponsored 
most  of  these  activities.  Students  tak- 
ing English  101  during  the  fail  semes- 
ter got  their  taste  of  Vietnam.  Most 
English  professors  required  their  stu- 
dents to  read  books  on  Vietnam, 
attend  lectures  and  roundtable  dis- 
cussions, and  write  papers  on  their 
reaction  to  the  war. 


Among  the  many  events  held  in 
order  to  learn  more  about  Vietnam 
was  an  art  exhibit.  The  art  gallery, 
located  on  the  first  floor  of  the  Smith 
Building,  displayed  paintings  and 
drawings  depicting  the  war.  The  art 
pieces  were  from  a  variety  of  artists, 
all  portraying  their  reactions.  Another 
Vietnam-oriented  event  was  the  con- 
vocation featuring  Neil  Sheehan.  Mr. 
Sheehan  spoke  to  students,  faculty 
and  staff  in  October  on  incidents  that 
occurred  in  Vietnam.  Mr.  Sheehan's 
book,  A  Bright  Shining  Lie,  became  a 
popular  item  in  the  USCS  bookstore. 
General  William  Westmoreland  also 


enlightened  students  with  his  comments 
concerning  Vietnam  and  the  war  that 
never  should  have  been.  Colonel  Earl 
Hopper  also  told  of  his  experiences  in 
the  Vietnam  ordeal.  Debates  and  round- 
table  discussions  were  other  events.  Dr. 
Ron  Romine,  Dr.  )ohn  Wilson  and  Dr. 
Dunn,  from  Converse  College,  held 
these  roundtable  discussions.  These 
helped  give  students  a  deeper  knowl- 
edge of  the  war.  By  making  USCS  stu- 
dents and  faculty  more  aware  of  this 
often  misunderstood  conflict,  only 
proves  once  again  why  USCS  is  "des- 
tined for  distinction." 


Serious  business  —  General  William  Westmoreland  talks  to  students  on  his  ordeals  in  Vietnam.  General 
Westmoreland  was  one  of  the  many  speakers  who  visited  the  USCS  campus  to  talk  about  Vietnam.

Speaking 
Out 

Many  students  learned 
alot  from  the  Vietnam  topic 
this  year  By  expbring  this 
topic  with  speakers,  stu- 
dents are  more  aware  of 
the  feelings  of  the  partici- 
pants and  the  actual  events 
of  the  war.  Here  are  the 
reactions  of  some  students 
when  asked  to  share  their 
personal  feelings  concern- 
ing Vietnam; 

Shane  Workman  —  "I  be- 
lieve America  was  right  in 
going  to  Vietnam  to  free  it 
from  communist  aggression 
but  the  United  States  gov- 
ernment was  wrong  in  not 
altowing  us  to  invade  North 
Vietnam  or  cross  into  Cam- 
bodia and  Laos  which 
would  have  enabled  us  to 
win." 

Sheiry  HolHingworth  —  1 
think  it  was  a  waste  of  time 
because  alot  of  people  died 
that  shouldn't  have.  We 
should  have  stayed  out  of 
Their  problems." 
Brad  Cole  —  "I  have  afot  of 
respect  for  those  involved 
because  they  stood  up  for 
their  country."

Exam  Jam  '89 


With  one  week  before  finals,  you 
would  expect  students  to  be  fran- 
tically trying  to  catch  up  on  the  work 
they  have  neglected  since  the 
Thanksgiving  break  or  doing  some 
early  studying  so  they  will  not  have  to

A  Future,  A  Fortune 


The  cost  of  going  to  college  is  a 
major  expense  for  most  students  and 
parents.  The  cost  of  tuition  seems  to 
be  increasing  annually  at  most  institu- 
tions, including  USCS.  Many  college 
students  are  having  to  take  out  loans 
and  continually  apply  for  grants.  This 
is  causing  the  average  student  loan 
debts  of  college  graduates  to  mount 
up  every  year.  Soon  almost  all  gradu- 
ates will  have  accumulated  a  debt 
upon  graduation. 

Tuition  increases  constitute  many 
opportunities  for  the  academic  insti- 
tution. As  long  as  an  academic  institu- 
tion is  committed  to  quality  costs  will 
continue  to  be  a  concern.  Increases  in

tuition  are  used  for  faculty  salaries,  to 
maintain  quality  professors,  and  to 
keep  up  with  the  ever-growing 
knowledge  and  technology  bases. 
The  institution  must  have  new  labora- 
tory equipment,  new  computers, 
new  books,  and  other  essential  inno- 
vations. Also  part  of  the  revenue 
from  the  increase  goes  to  student  aid 
Contributions  do  not  help  with  these 
existing  costs  but  only  increase  edu- 
cational opportunities  such  as  scholar- 
ships. Tuition  will  probably  continue 
to  increase  only  causing  students  to 
pay  what  seems  like  a  fortune  for  a 
future.

An  Education 


uses  had  a  tuition  in- 
crease at  the  beginning  of 
the  1989-90  academic 
school  year.  Tuition  was 
raised  from  $1600  a  year 
to  $1750  a  year  for  South 
Carolina  residents.  USCS 
continue  to  provide  an 
excellent  education  at  a 
fair  price.  The  Carolana 
asked  some  students  how 
they  felt  about  the  cost  of 
tuition  and  the  education 
that  they  are  receiving  at 
USCS: 

Kristi  Henderson  —  '1 
think  tuition  is  reasonable 
and  I  feel  we  have  great 
teachers." 

Carole  Rice  —  "I  feel  I  am 
receiving  a  quality  educa- 
tion at  a  fair  price." 
Todd  Rogers  —  "I  feel  the 
professors  are  very  well 
qualified,  the  courses  are 
challenging,  and  the  tu- 
ition is  reasonable."

dents should  begin  exploring  different 
careers.  By  the  junior  year,  students 
should  have  narrowed  down  their  ca- 
reer choices  and  be  preparing  for  the 
job  search.  As  a  senior,  students  should 
be  actively  involved  in  the  job  search 
process.

What 
To  Be 


Choosing  a  major  is  a 
difficult  tasi<  for  some  stu- 
dents. Many  students  will 
change  their  major  two  or 
three  times  before  they 
figure  out  what  it  is  that 
they  really  want  to  do. 
Once  the  right  major  is 
found,  the  challenge 
moves  to  finding  the  right 
career.  Some  students 
replied  as  follows  when 
asked,  "What  is  your  ma- 
jor and  why  did  you 
choose  it?": 

Stephanie  Lovelace  — 
"My  major  is  Elementary 
Education  because  I  enjoy 
being  around  children  and 
want  to  help  shape  their 
future." 

DeeAn  Jarvis  —  "Ac- 
counting is  my  major.  I 
CHOSE  IT  SO  I  would 
make  lots  of  money." 
Lori  Ann  Poole  —  "I 
chose  Secondary  Educa- 
tion as  my  major  because 
I  want  to  help  others  and 
to  give  a  little  back  to 
education  of  what  was 
given  to  me."

On  the 
Side 

Intramurals  pro- 
vide a  lot  of  fun  and 
excitetnent  and  exer- 
cise for  many  stu- 
dents. By  participat- 
ing, it  gives  them  a 
chance  to  make  new

competition.  The 
Carolana  questioned 
some  uses  students, 
"Why  do  you  enjoy 
participating  in  intra- 
murals?": 

John  Jones  —  "Be- 
cause it  gives  you  a 
chance  to  meet  oth- 
er students  and  get 
exercise." 

Laura  Seymour  —  "It 
gives  me  a  chance  to 
participate  in  activ-

would  be  unavail- 
able to  me." 

Billy  Smith  —  "I  en-

A  Riot!? 


What's  fun  and  exciting,  happens 
on  Wednesday  afternoons  and  occa- 
sionally at  night  and  provides  free 
food'  Its  a  RIOT  -  A  Really  Intense 
Outrageous  Time.  RIOTs  are  spon- 
sored by  the  Campus  Activity  Board 
Various  types  of  entertainers  are 
brought  on  campus  to  perform  for 
uses  students.  Free  food,  usually 
Dominoes  pizza,  is  often  provided  to 
encourage  student  participation  This 
year  CAB  brought  back  two  all-time 
favorites  -  Ronny  Romm  and  Chris 
Brady.  Ronny  Romm  started  the  RIOTs 
off  for  the  1989-90  school  year.  His 
psychic  abilities  once  again  amazed  a 
large  crowd  of  students.  Chris  Brady 
thrilled  students  at  an  evening  RIOT. 
He  sang  crowd   favorites   including 


limmy  Buttet  and  Eagles  songs  Chris 
Brady  took  requests  from  the  audi- 
ence and  even  had  Sonja  Ruppe  and 
Alison  Hunt  from  the  Gamma  Psi  Del- 
ta Sorority  join  him  on  stage  for  one 
of  his  sing-a-longs  Other  RIOTs  in- 
cluded readings  from  Jonathan  Frid  of 
"Dark  Shadows";  a  performance  by 
the  band  The  Green  Olives;  Rick 
Kelley,  singing  the  best  of  Motown; 
and  a  showing  of  the  "Rocky  Horror 
Picture  Show"  on  Halloween.  So  next 
time  someone  yells  "RIOT!"  Don't 
panic  because  it  is  only  a  Really  In- 
tense Outrageous  Time  and  it  is  alot 
of  fun! 


The  comedy  zone  —  Comedian  Mark  Rossi  entertains

My 
Favorite 

RIOTs  are  a  fun  break  for 
students  from  their  busy  class 
schedules.  RIOTs  are  scheduled 
during  the  break  usually  on 
Wednesdays  or  Fridays.  This 
year,  however,  some  RIOTs 
were  also  scheduled  for  the 
evenings.  The  student  re- 
sponse was  great  fro  both  day 
and  evening  RIOTs.  Everyone 
has  their  favorite  perfonners. 
These  are  some  of  the  favor- 
ites that  were  mentioned  when 
the  Carolana  asked,  "What 
was  your  favorite  RIOT?": 
Denlse  Hardin  —  "Chris  Brady 
because  there  were  alot  of 
people  there  and  I  like  his  mu- 
sic." 

Jill  Bishop  —  "Rick  Kelley  be- 
cause he  was  very  energetic 
and  gets  the  students  in- 
volved." 

David  Sims  —  "Risque  Business 
because  I  felt  the  actors  did  a 
great  job." 

Always  a  lat^h  —  There  is  al- 
ways fun  to  be  had  by  J  at  a 
RIOT  Students  like  RIOTs  whethi- 
er  they  are  held  in  the  Hodge

Monday  Again? 


We  have  all  had  them  -  days 
when  everything  we  touch  goes 
wrong.  Ironically,  those  days  always 
seem  to  fall  on  Monday  when  we  are 
so  desperately  trying  to  recover  from 
the  weekend  and  get  back  into  some 
type  of  routine.  The  term  "Manic 
Monday"  has  been  used  to  describe 
days  when  -  you  sleep  until  7:00  on 
a  day  that  you  have  an  8:00  class, 
there  is  nothing  decent  in  your  closet 
to  wear  and  no  time  to  eat  breakfast. 
You  grab  your  books  and  out  the 
door  you  go  only  to  find  that  your  car 
won't  start  so  you  have  to  take  dad's 
old  clunker.  M  school,  you  run  to 
class  and  try  to  slip  in  the  door  with 


out  too  much  noise.  The  teacher  cuts 
his  eyes  at  you  as  he  continues  to 
work  a  math  problem.  Wouldn't  you 
know  it  —  you're  without  your 
homework  and  it's  the  first  time  all 
semester  he  decides  to  take  it  up  to 
be  graded.  On  the  way  home,  a  cop 
pulls  you  over  for  doing  55  mph  in  a 
35  mph  zone.  You  accept  the  ticket 
and  drive  straight  home  without  any 
plans  to  leave  the  house  because  you 
realize  it  has  been  "lust  another  Man- 
ic Monday  I"  -Patty  Bagwell 

Last  minute  studying  —  Michelle  Cater 
crams  tor  a  test  before  class.  Monday  seems 
like  a  good  day  for  test,  at  least  that's  what 
many  professors  think.

Oh  No! 

Mondays  seem  to  be  the 
day  that  whatever  could 
possibly  go  wrong,  does  go 
wrong.  It  is  the  day  you 
forget  your  homework, 
you  have  a  pop  test  in  ev- 
ery class,  and,  of  course, 
you  are  not  prepared,  you 
oversleep,  you  can't  find  a 
parking  place  except  in  the 
"additional  parking"  lot,  and 
you  wonder  why  you  just 
did  not  stay  at  home  in  the 
bed  all  day.  Many  students 
often  dread  to  see  Monday 
roll  arourKl.  The  Carolana 
asked  students  to  tell  us 
about  their  worst  Monday. 
Brian  Dismukes  —  "I  found 
a  really  great  parking  place 
on  a  rainy  Monday,  only  to 
open  my  door  and  step 
ankle-deep  into  a  puddle  of 
water." 

MicheUe  Taylor  —  "I  had 
an-  SNA  meeting  at  12:00 
•p.m.  but  thought  it  was  at 
1:00  p.m.  and  sat  in  my  car 
and  read  through  the 
whole  meeting." 
Tatty  Bagwell  —  "1  wore 
sweats  to  school  —  I  forgot 
1  was  suppose  to  dress  up 
for  a  meeting.  I  had  to  go 
home  and  change."

On  My 
Own 

Once  you  reach  your 
senior  year  of  college  you 
should  start  preparing  to 
search  for  a  job.  The  first 
step  is  to  prepare  a  re- 
sume to  sell  yourself  to 
potential  employers.  As 
you  begin  constructing 
your  resume,  you  have  to 
decide  exactly  what  it  is 
you  want  to  do.  Several 
students  told  the  Car- 
olana  their  career  objec- 
tive: 

Candace  Harmon  —  "To 
take  Dan  Rather's  place 
on  the  CBS  News!" 
Susan  Hayes  —  "To  be  an 
accountant  so  I  can  make 
enough  money  to  sup- 
port myself  and  my 
child." 

Sherry  Hollingsworth  — 
"To  eventually  earn  a 
Ed.D  and  teach  math  at  a 
university."

Working  On-Campus 


The  1989-90  school  year  brought  a 
change  to  the  on-campus  student 
employment  process^  Previously, 
most  students  got  on-campus  jobs  by 
word-of-mouth  from  other  students 
or  professors  or  through  the  Financial 
Aid  Office.  There  was  really  no  formal 
process  and  only  lucky  students  or 
students  qualifying  for  financial  aid 
got  hired  for  these  jobs.  Now  the 
hiring  process  is  more  complex  and 
gives  students  a  more  equal  oppor- 
tunity for  on-campus  jobs.  The  first 
step  for  students  wanting  an  on-cam- 
pus job  is  to  visit  the  Placement  Of 


Are  these  the  right  papers?  —  Kelley  Rollins  and 

Lome  Blackwell  make  sure  they  have  all  the  nght 

papers  as  they  begin  to  process  a  loan.  They  are

fice,  located  on  the  second  floor  of 
the  Administration  Building.  Here  the 
student  views  the  bulletin  board 
which  lists  all  on-campus  jobs.  The 
next  step  is  to  fill  out  an  on-campus 
student  employment  employment 
application.  If  you  are  interested  in 
one  of  the  jobs  on  the  board  and  are 
qualified,  this  application  will  be  for- 
warded to  the  person  in  charge  of 
hiring  for  that  specific  job.  If  you  did 
not  find  a  job  you  were  interested  in 
or  did  not  qualify  for  one,  your  appli- 
cation is  filed  and  reviewed  as  other 
jobs  are  submitted  to  the  Placement 


Office.  Your  application  will  then  be 
forwarded  to  a  job  in  which  you  qualify. 
Once  your  application  has  been  for- 
warded, the  person  in  charge  of  hiring 
for  that  job  reviews  all  applications 
which  he  received.  He  then  interviews 
candidates  for  the  position  and  makes  a 
decision.  The  applications  of  students 
not  hired  are  routed  back  to  the  Place- 
ment Office  to  be  filed.  Your  application 
then  starts  the  process  all  over  again.

My  Job 


Most  students  who 
work  on-campus  find  it 
both  fun  and  rewarding. 
There  are  a  variety  of  dif- 
ferent jobs  available  for 
students  which  come 
with  many  different  tasks, 
from  typing  letters  to  gra- 
ding papers  to  preparing 
the  out-going  mail.  Here 
are  what  some  student  as- 
sistants  replied  when 
asked  "Why  do  you  like 
working  on  campus?": 
Crystal  McCullough  —  "1 
like  it  because  I  get  to 
meet  lots  of  the  pro- 
fessors and  work  with  dif- 
ferent types  of  people." 
Tim  Friar  —  "Because  you 
get  to  know  the  school 
and  your  boss  will  work 
with  you  if  you  heed  off 
for  a  test  or  to  study." 
Toni  Nusz  —  "I  like  work- 
ing on-campus  because 
you  make  a  lot  of  contacts 
-  faculty,  staff,  and  pro- 
fessionals -  and  you 
learn  information  which 
will  be  helpful  once  you

The  most  awaited  event  in  college 
life  is  graduation.  The  hard  work  and 
dedication  of  four  years  culminates  in 
the  presentation  of  a  college  degree 
at  the  graduation  ceremony.  This  dig- 
nified ceremony  serves  as  the  final 
recognition  for  the  efforts  put  forth 
by  those  graduating.  The  purpose  of 
a  college  education  is  to  teach  one 
how  to  think.  The  fulfillment  of  this 
purpose  prepares  college  graduates 
for  the  real  world  by  enabling  them  to 
deal  effectively  with  decisions  that 
must  be  made  in  successful  business 
ventures.  It  is  a  major  accomplish- 
ment to  complete  the  requirements 
for  a  college  degree.  A  great  many  of 
those  students  who  enter  college  do 


At  Last 


not  finish.  It  is  those  with  determina- 
tion and  a  desire  to  succeed  that 
finally  attain  a  Bachelor's  degree. 
Most  importantly,  it  is  up  to  those 
who  receive  college  degrees  to  be- 
come the  leaders  of  tomorrow.  With- 
out well-educated  individuals  to  press 
forward  the  research  needed  to  bet- 
ter society,  the  world  would  cease  to 
advance  in  scientific  technology,  as 
well  as  in  business  and  social  struc- 
tures.

Hold  On  To 
The  Movement 


Single  file  and  yet  together. 
We  have  shared  our  greatest 

days. 
And  we  carry  common  memo- 
ries 
In  different  ways. 

Though  we  don't  know  where 

we're  going, 
We  will  cherish  where 

we've  been. 
I  want  to  cry, 
I  want  to  shout  . .  . 
Want  to  let  this  feeling  out. 

Hold  on  to  the  moment. 
Let  the  feelings  show. 
Hold  on  to  the  moment. 
Never  let  it  go. 

I  can  picture  us  together 
With  my  arms  around  my 

friends, 
lust  let  me  hold  on  to  this 

moment. 
Before  it  ends. 
There  was  laughter.  There 

were  tears. 
Through  the  many  golden  years.

Most  students  will  agree  that  they 
enjoy  watching  an  athletic  team  anni- 
hilate an  opponent,  but  would  these 
same  students  be  willing  to  sacrifice 
the  majority  of  their  time  and  energy 
to  make  a  winning  team?  Students 
often  envy  the  prestige  of  owning  a 
team  jacket  with  their  name  written 
across  the  back  or  the  pride  of  being  a 
district  champion,  but  these  honors 
result  only  from  endless  hours  of  train- 
ing. 

Athletes  are  a  special  breed  of  peo- 
ple who  set  high  goals  for  themselves 
and  do  everything  physically  possible 
to  achieve  these  goals.  They  endure 
the  cuts,  bruises,  and  broken  bones, 
all  for  a  single  moment  of  victory. 

Through  it  all,  the  best  and  the 
worst,  each  team  member,  fan,  and 
coach,  contributes  by  keeping  USCS 
destined  for  .  .  .  distinction.

Previous  head  soccer 
coach,  Frank  Kohlenstien, 
the  only  soccer  coach  at 
uses  since  the  Rifles  started 
the  soccer  program  in  1980, 
left  uses  to  assume  the  head 
coaching  position  at  the  Uni- 
versity at  North  Carolina  at 
Charlotte  on  )uly  21,  1989. 

David  Linenberger  re- 
placed Kohlenstein  at  the 
helm  of  the  USCS  soccer 
program.  "I  am  very  excited 
and  looking  forward  to  tak- 
ing over  the  successful  soc-

enberger said.  "I  hope  I 
can  continue  the  success 
and  take  it  another  step 
further  as  we  go  into  Divi- 
sion II  this  season." 

With  our  soccer  players 
coming  from  a  variety  of 
countries  and  our  new

soccer  program  is  defi- 
nitely destined  for .  .  .  dis-

Kicking  Up  A  Storm 


It's  one  of  those 
games  that  your 
mother  would  never 
let  you  play  under 
any  circumstances! 
It's  full  of  head- 
butting, kicking, 
shouting,  body  slam- 
ming, and  the  illegal 
use  of  the  hands.  It 
has  bruises,  mud, 
abuse,  and  even  oc- 
casional blood  shed. 
It's  all  about  action, 
excitement,  glory, 
and  postgame  cele- 
bration.   It's    called 


soccer,  and  on  this 
campus  a  specific 
group  of  Running  Ri- 
fles play  it  to  perfec- 
tion. 

They  are  whis- 
pered about  in  admi- 
ration, and  adoring 
fans  follow  their 
games.  The  players 
themselves  are  men 
of  daring,  with  de- 
ceptive skills;  all  of 
which  are  wrapped 
up  in  a  little  boy's 
love  for  having  fun. 
Not  the  bulky  equip- 


ment of  football- 
just  men.  They  are 
our  soccer  players. 

Here  at  USCS,  soc- 
cer is  one  of  the  more 
glorified  sports.  With 
their  record  of  7-3-0 
overall  and  winning 
the  District  title  for 
the  last  two  years,  we 
have  a  reason  to  be 
proud. 

The  soccer  team 
made  it  to  the  semi- 
finals this  year,  but 
were  defeated  by 
Lander.

Cummings  stated  that 
she  was  pleased  that

Digging  for  Vic 


Volleyball  is  fast  becoming 
one  of  the  most  competitive 
sports  in  America  today.  It  may 
not  have  as  much  national  rec- 
ognition as  football  or  basket- 
ball, but  it  is  just  as  exciting  to 
watch. 

The  Lady  Rifles  finished  the 
season  with  a  35-8  record  and 
their  third  consecutive  NAIA 
District  six  and  Bi-District  II  titles. 
As  a  result,  they  advanced  to 
the  NAIA  National  Volleyball 
Tournament  in  Laie,  Hawaii,  on 
the  campus  of  BYU  Hawaii. 

Although  they  failed  to  win 
any  of  the  four  games  in  Hawaii, 
they  did  take  Fresno  Pacific  CA, 
the  eventual  National  Tourna- 
ment Champion,  to  a  third 
game  which  Fresno  won  15-13.

21-10  and  advanced  to  the 
District  Six  semifinals,  have 
an  excellent  opportunity  to 
win  the  district.

This  year  the  Lady  Rifles 
began  their  final  season  of 
District  Six  before  they  go  to 
full  NCAA  Division  II  status 
during  the  1990-91  season. 
As  a  result,  the  Lady  Rifles  will 
be  facing  stiffer  competition 
in  Division  II  schools,  who 
they  must  play  as  LISCS  com- 
plies with  the  switch  in  affilia- 
tions, and  the  usual  battles  in 
the  district. 

"I  feel  we  have  been  com- 
petitive thus  far  in  the  sea- 
son. Our  first  game  against 
Lincoln  Memorial  was  our 
toughest  so  far,"  said  head 
coach  Tammy  Holder.  "A 
winning  season  is  still  ex- 
tremely probable  and  a  20- 
win  season  would  be  a 
dream,  but  not  out  of 
reach."

The  men's  golf  team  won  its  first  full  tourna- 
ment of  the  year  when  they  won  the  Western

the  uses  Fall  Festival  of  Golf  on  October  23 
and  24  at  the  Links  O'Tryon  Golf  Course. 

In  the  Western  Carolina  Tournament,  the 
Rifles  won  the  Tournament  by  nine  strokes 
over  the  closest  of  11  competitors,  Western 
Carolina  gold  in  the  two-day  36-hole  tourna- 
ment. Mitch  Turner  led  the  way  for  the  Rifles 
with  a  total  of  144,  good  for  a  third-place  tie  in 
the  individual  race.  Jamie  Amick  and  Taylor

Baseball  was  added  as  an  Intercollegiate 
sport  at  uses  in  1986.  During  the  first  season, 
coach  John  Daurity  and  a  new,  talented  ball 
team  made  a  name  for  USCS  Baseball.  They 
advanced  to  the  District  Six  playoffs,  finishing 
third  with  a  record  of  34-18-1.  During  their 
second  season,  the  Rifles  did  not  miss  a  beat  as 
they  advanced  to  the  playoffs  and  finished 
second  with  a  record  of  36-9.  Last  season  the 
Rifles  again  advanced  to  the  playoffs  with  a 
record  of  35-10.  Coach  Daunty  predicts  that 
this  season  should  be  as  exciting  as  previous 
ones  with  a  winning  season,  another  playoff 
appearance,  and  perhaps  a  first  place  trophy. 

Three  playoffs  out  of  there  season  and  an 
overall  record  of  103-37-1  is  definitely  some- 
thing to  be  proud  of,  and  a  great  way  to  begin 
a  new  era  of  sports  at  USCS.

About  the  Coach 


It  takes  a  great  coach  to  make  a  great  team, 
uses  was  very  fortunate  to  acquire  coach 
John  Daurity  to  begin  the  baseball  program. 
He  is  widely  respected  and  known  for  his 
ability  in  his  field.  Formerly  the  head  coach  of 
the  Wofford  Terriers,  he  had  previously  spent 
ten  years  coaching  and  teaching  at  various 
high  schools.  During  his  five  seasons  at 
Wofford,  he  recei\ed  the  honor  of  NAIA 
District  Six  Coach  of  the  Year,  and  had  three  of 
his  players  drafted  by  professional  teams.  In 
the  short  time  he  has  spent  at  USCS,  there 
have  been  twelve  players  drafted  by  pro 
teams.  His  skill,  effort,  and  patience  have  been 
shown  on  and  off  the  field.  )ohn  Daurity  is  a 
wonderful  man  and  the  backbone  of  Rifle 
Baseball.

To  be  a  successful  softball  player  one  must 
have  the  ability  and  coordination  to  run,  catch, 
throw,  and  bat.  Practicing  is  a  long,  tedious 
task  for  many  athletes:  yet  the  rewards  are 
overwhelming. 

The  1989  Lady  Rifles  worked  hard  all  year 
and  their  prowess  showed  on  the  field.  Many 
of  their  accomplishments  include  placing  third 
in  the  District  Six  Tournament,  a  ranking  in  the 
NAIA  Top  Twenty,  and  defeating  the  previ- 
ously number  one  team  of  Francis  Marion. 
Other  accomplishments  include  beating 
NCAA  Division  I  Georgia  Tech  four  consecu- 
tive times,  and  eliminating  Ohio  State  in  the 
Virginia  Invitational  Tournament. 

The  1990  season  proved  to  be  a  season  of 
surprising  accomplishments  as  they  competed 
against  Division  I  teams  and  top  District  Six 
NAIA  member  schools.

have  the  ability  to  run,  catch,  throw,  and  bat. 
Practice  for  the  Lady  Rifles  softball  team  is 
tedious.  With  long  hours  and  the  weather  they

The  88-89  squad  worked  hard  all  year  and 
their  prowess  paid  off.  Many  of  their  accom- 
plishments included  placing  third  in  the  District 
Six  Tournament,  and  defeating  the  previously 
number  one  team  of  Francis  Marion.  The 
89-90  season  proved  to  be  one  of  equal 
accomplishment.

The  women's  tennis  at  USCS  have  put  long 
hard  hours  into  practicing.  Adding  to  this 
dedication  is  second  year  coach,  Tammy  Hold- 
er. Holder  was  a  stand  out  on  the  tennis  team 
at  William  and  Mary  for  four  years. 

In  Holder's  first  year,  the  89  season,  the  Rifles 
opened  the  season  when  they  took  on  the 
1988  National  Champions,  Lander  College. 
The  rest  of  their  schedule  was  packed  with  1 1 
matches  with  other  top  NAIA  power,  including 
Furman  and  Coastal  Carolina. 

The  Lady  Rifles  look  to  the  future  with  such 
young  talented  athletes.

Although  they  don't  get  quite  as  much 
recognition  as  the  basketball  or  soccer  team, 
the  uses  tennis  team  is  still  a  hardworking 
member  of  the  USCS  athletic  department. 
They  spend  many  hard  hours  of  practice  to 
perfect  their  "aces",  and  backhands,  often  in 
the  cold. 

The  1988-89  men's  tennis  team  looks  to 
Alan  Ferguson  for  direction.  "Ferguson  has 
really  pumped  the  team  for  next  year,"  says 
women's  coach  Tammy  Holder. 

The  last  three  seasons  have  really  been  the 
"birthing"  for  our  tennis  team.  The  rifles  fu- 
ture, is  now  looking  for  hope  with  some  new 
talented  athletes  for  the  tennis  team.

Competitive  Amusements  103 


When  an  individual  enters  USCS,  he  will  pass 
hundreds  of  meaningless  faces  known  only  to 
those  that  are  familiar  with  the  visages.  Maybe  it  is 
the  look  of  someone  who  has  failed  a  big  test  or 
maybe  it  is  the  look  of  drive  and  determination  in 
the  eyes  of  an  athlete. 

From  the  first  week  that  students  arrived  at 
USCS  to  the  last,  the  campus  bustled  with  classes, 
parties,  RIOTS,  studying  and  just  run  of  the  mill 
congregating  among  friends  and  professors. 

Freshmen  being  initiated  to  college  life  found 
orientation  and  registration  a  prodigious  ordeal  — 
quite  a  different  experience. 

However,  anomalies  changed  into  familiarities 
as  students  learned  the  ways  of  college  life.  A 
way  that  is  singular,  like  no  other  that  these 
students  will  know  in  any  other  stage  in  their  life. 

Although  a  commuter  campus  college,  USCS 
offered  a  great  variety  of  involvement  for  stu- 
dents. Publications  sought  help,  the  Student  Gov- 
ernment Association  solicited  for  members,  con- 
certs were  held  and  occasionally  a  beer  bust  was 
held  on  the  soccer  field. 

For  those  not  wanting  to  participate  in  anything 
strenuous,  there  was  always  an  empty  table  in 
the  Hodge  Center  to  be  used  for  relaxing  and 
conversing. 

All  of  the  faces,  personalities,  and  impressions 
contribute  to  the  USCS  distinction.

Dr.  Dlin  B. 
Sansbury,  Jr. 


Dr.  Olin  B.  Sansbury,  |r.  has  had  a  distinct  influence  on  USCS  while  serving  as 
chancellor.  Before  coming  to  USCS,  he  held  many  prominent  positions  in  the 
educational  realm.  When  asked  what  makes  USCS  a  distinct  university,  he  replied,  "The 
most  significant  thing  is  the  close  relationship  and  identity  with  the  area  that  it  serves." 
He  also  referred  to  the  school's  community  ties  as  having  a  positive  effect  on  the 
students  from  the  Upstate,  as  well  as  students  from  other  areas.

Carolina  Piedmont 
Foundation 


The  Carolina  Piedmont  Foundation  was  started  in  1973  to  "accept  gifts  of  charitable 
benevolent,  cultural  and  educational  purposes  for  the  exclusive  use  of  the  University  of 
South  Carolina  at  Spartanburg."  The  organization  is  governed  by  interested  citizens  of 
the  Upstate  community  who  wish  to  support  the  university.  The  president  of  the 
Carolina  Piedmont  Foundation  is  Senator  Horace  Smith.  The  foundation  has  been 
involved  in  many  projects  that  have  greatly  benefited  USCS.  Funds  for  the  Smith 
Building  and  the  Mary  Black  School  of  Nursing  was  provided  through  this  foundation. 
Also,  support  has  been  given  for  faculty  research,  scholarly  activities,  and  computer

A  college  education  requires  more  than  classroom 
instruction  because  well-roundedness  is  acquired 
through  a  learning  process  involving  interaction,  re- 
sponsibility, and  commitment.  USCS  offers  an  array  or 
organizations  for  student  involvement  in  order  to 
uphold  the  institution's  dedication  to  academic  stud- 
ies. By  participating  in  various  organizations,  USCS 
students  have  the  opportunity  to  grow  intellectually, 
as  well  as  physically,  socially,  and  culturally 

The  religious  organizations  offer  individuals  spintual 
support  and  fellowship.  Participants  find  spiritual  en- 
richment as  they  strengthen  their  faith  and  share  with 
others.  In  addition  to  the  religious  groups,  the  more 
philanthropic  students  find  personal  satisfaction  in 
helping  others  in  the  service  organizations.  Partici- 
pants learn  that  commitment  to  such  organizations 
benefits  both  the  community  and  the  service  mem- 
ber. 

Students  who  excel  academically  are  granted 
membership  to  the  various  honor  societies  which 
provide  incentive  and  reward  to  the  diligent  students. 
Individuals  in  these  honor  societies  are  judged  on 
character,  loyalty,  and  school  service  before  they  gain 
acceptance.  The  more  creative  students  gain  experi- 
ence and  develop  their  talents  by  working  with  the 
literary  magazine,  the  newspaper,  the  yearbook,  and 
the  musical  organizations. 

Whether  the  benefits  be  social,  spiritual,  or 
character-building,  students  find  participation  in  USCS 
organizations  personally  rewarding  and  an  important 
part  of  a  college  education.

The  AAA  strives  to  increase  cultural  aware- 
ness, foster  harmonious  interracial  relations 
among  all  members  of  the  university  commu- 
nity, and  to  promote  the  development  of  its 
members  as  individuals.  Annual  participation  in 
a  variety  of  Black  History  Month  activities 
highlights  the  group's  active  contribution  to 
campus  life.  Victor  Austin,  president  of  AAA, 
works  with  each  member  of  the  club  as  well  as 
other  organizations  on  campus  to  promote 
the  AAA's  purpose.  AAA  also  has  numerous

Student  Government 
Association 


The  SGA  is  a  student  organization 
that  has  grown  tremendously  over 
the  past  few  years.  The  SGA  is  a  vital 
part  of  the  USCS  campus,  it  is 
manned  by  60  active  members. 

Under  the  guidance  of  President 
Stacy  Seay,  the  Student  Government 
Association  has  accomplished  many 
goals  set  at  the  beginning  of  the  year 
such  as  discussing  the  parking  prob- 
lems with  Chancellor  Olin.  B.  Sansb- 
ury  as  well  as  banning  smoking  here 
on  the  USCS  campus. 

The  SGA  developed  a  new  slogan 
this  year,  "The  Honor  Is  To  Serve," 
because  the  SGA  understands  that 
the  most  important  function  is  to 
serve,  insuring  that  all  student  needs 
are  met  at  all  levels.  The  SGA  is 
composed  of  elected  officials  who 
strive  to  conduct  student  affairs  ef- 
fectively. 

This  year,  in  order  to  project  a 
more  positive  reputation  of  USCS, 
five  members  of  the  SGA,  Stacey 
Seay,  Jennifer  Broome,  Sharone 
Teamer,  Ainsley  Williams,  and  Chris

The  Carolinian 


The  Carolinian,  which  began  in 
1968,  has  undergone  many  changes 
inn  its  twenty-one  year  history.  Since 
each  year  usually  brings  a  new  editor 
and  staff,  the  paper  has  seen 
numerous  design  and  style  changes 
which  have  also  been  influenced  by 
current  styles  and  trends. 

While  the  staff  does  have  fun, 
producing  a  newspaper  is  serious 
work.  Typically,  most  of  the  editors 
work  everyday  except  Thursday, 
and,  on  Wednesday,  —  the  day  the 
paper  is  put  together  —  most  of  the 
staff  spends  the  entire  day  and  night 
in  the  office. 

The  paper  is  also  active  in  national 
college  press  associations  and  at- 
tends conferences  annually  to  keep 
up  with  current  styles  and  to  allow 
an  intense  learning  experience  for  all 
members  of  the  staff. 

The  newspaper,  which  is  fully 
computerized,  handles  all  of  its  pro- 
duction except  for  the  actual  print- 
ing, which  is  done  off  campus.  Fun- 
ding is  provided  from  student  activ- 
ity funds  and  advertising,  which  is 
provided  by  national  sales  represen- 
tative firms.

advisor  is  Ms.  Miller,  a  Professor  of 
French. 

In  the  past,  members  have  rep-

of  those  include:  Japan,  Venezula, 
Laos,  Spain,  France,  Mexico,  Viet-

Their  object  is  to  help  foreign 
students,  as  well  as  Americans, 
and  to  understand  the  culture  and 
language  of  others. 

The  club  holds  meetings  on

Campus 
Activity 


Board 


Prior  to  1987,  the  programming 
function  performed  by  CAB  was  the 
responsibility  of  the  Entertainment 
Committee  Chairperson  Karen 
Wood.  She  attempted  to  enhance 
the  prestige  and  to  increase  campus 
awareness  of  this  organization  by 
developing  an  identity  separate 
from  the  SGA.  The  adoption  of  the 
name  Campus  Activity  Board  and 
the  design  of  the  CAB  logo  were 
two  steps  in  this  process.  At  the  end 
of  the  1987-88  school  year  this  sep- 
aration was  formalized.  The  Cam- 
pus Activity  Board  drew  up  a  consti- 
tution, and  through  the  vote  of  the 
SGA  full  senate,  became  a  separate 
entity  devoid  of  SGA  control.  CAB  is 
now  a  fully  functioning  program- 
ming board  with  four  paid  positions, 
carrying  out  the  responsibility  of 
programming  a  wide  variety  of  ac- 
tivities and  events  for  the  benefit  of 
the  entire  student  body.

Freshmen  Advisory  Council 


The  FAC,  formerly  PALS,  is  a 
voluntary  service  which  works 
with  the  Freshman  Center  during 
orientation,  registration,  and  ad- 
visement. These  students  serve  as 
peer  counselors  to  incoming 
freshman  and  transfer  students. 

In  the  Spring  of  1985,  FAC  be- 
came an  official  organization 
when  a  constitution  and  by-laws 
were  drafted  and  approved  by 
the  Student  Affairs  office. 

The  FAC  is  open  to  all  second 
semester  freshmen  and  upper- 
classmen  who  are  familiar  with 
the  campus  and  want  to  do  the 
work  that  FAC  does.  This  year  the 
FAC  sponsored  several  communi-

nursing  homes  and  providing  for 
needy  families.

boasts  75  members  and  has 
traveled  to  several  states  to  give 
concerts.  In  addition,  the  choir 
is  in  great  demand  locally. 

The  choir  performs  mostly 
contemporary  gospel  music, 
but  spiritual  and  gospel  songs 
are  also  part  of  the  repertoire. 
The  choir  is  open  to  any  inter- 
ested student;  no  experience  in 
singing  or  playing  gospel  music 
is  required,  only  a  sincere  inter- 
est and  lots  of  energy.  The  choir 
rehearses  on  an  average  of 
about  three  hours  per  week.

The  fraternity  of  Lambda  Chi 
Alpha  was  colonized  at  USCS 
April  10,  1984.  The  high  standards 
and  ideals  of  the  International 
headquarters  made  it  hard  for  the 
small  colony  to  carry  on.  With  the 
help  of  a  very  successful  alumnist, 
the  colony  received  its  charter  on 
April  16,  1988.

was  founded  in  December  of 
1967.  Membership  is  open  to  all 
nursing  students  in  any  of  the

Purposes  of  the  SNA  include 
providing  programs  representa- 
tive of  fundamental  and  current 
professional  interest,  contributing 
to  the  education  of  the  whole 
person  and  their  professional  role. 

Monthly  meetings  are  held  in 
the  Mary  Black  School  of  Nursing. 
Guest  speakers  represent  a  broad 
cross-section  of  health  care  issues. 
Several  social  events  are  held

Maggie's 
Drawers 


Maggie's  Drawers  does  not  re- 
fer to  a  woman's  undergarment. 
Instead,  it  began  in  1972  to  pro- 
vide a  vehicle  for  the  creative 
efforts  of  uses  students.  Pro- 
fessor Donald  Knight  and  Andy 
Crosland  were  the  first  advisors. 
The  rather  unusual  name  is  a  result 
of  a  policy,  then  in  effect,  that  all 
school  publications  be  named  to 
fit  the  rifle  motif.  The  more  obvi- 
ous names  were  all  taken,  and  the 
first  editor  —  A  Vietnam  veteran 
—  suggested  Maggie's  Drawers 
which  signifies  a  miss  on  the  target 
range. 

Anyone  interested  is  allowed 
to  submit  poems,  short  stories,  or 
art  work  to  the  editorial  staff  for 
consideration.

The  University  Singers  is  a 
choral  organization  open  to  all 
students  at  USCS.  It  is  advised 
by  Janice  Janiec.  No  audition  is 
required  for  membership  in  the 
group  and  one  hour  credit  is 
given  per  semester.  Each  mem- 
ber of  the  singers  is  eligible  for  a 
scholarship  and  each  semester  a 
student  remains  a  member 
qualifies  him  or  her  for  addition- 
al monies.

Photo 
Club 


There  are  many  myths  about 
the  Photo  Club.  The  fact  is,  all  you 
have  to  do  is  like  to  learn,  pro- 
duce photographs,  and  have  fun! 

In  the  past  years,  their  meetings 
have  featured  Thomas  McCarver, 
a  prominent  photojournalist  at  the 
Spartanburg  Herald-Journal,  a 
view  from  a  former  member  and 
many  educational  films  on  photo- 
graphy. Field  trips  are  also  a  vital 
part  of  the  clubs. 

This  year  they  have  planned 
more  films,  field  trips,  and  more 
photo  contests  than  ever.  If  you 
are  interested,  see  Becky  Gray  at

cludes bringing  students  in  con-

ipation of  local  media  practi- 
tioners; attending  conventions,

wide. 

Membership  in  the  organiza- 
tion is  open  to  all  students  inter-

with  only  ten  members  but  grew  to  forty-five  by 
October  1988.  Sigma  Delta  Psi  members  enjoy  the 
closeness  of  sisterhood  and  the  bonds  of  lifelong 
friendships. 

Sigma  Delta  Psi's  philanthropy  is  F.A.C.T.  (Fight 
Against  Cancer  Today)  to  help  those  afflicted  with 
cancer.  Each  member  must  dedicate  a  certain 
amount  of  time  monthly  to  the  function. 

Members  of  the  sorority  must  maintain  a  2.0 
grade  average  and  all  officers  have  high  academic 
standards  they  must  also  meet. 

Sigma  Delta  Psi  holds  many  mixers  throughout

threw  a  mixer  called  "The  Lei"  with  a  Hawaiian 
theme.

though  they  were  faced  with 
many  problems  as  deadlines 
quickly  approached.  Student 
schedule  conflicts  made  it  difficult 
to  have  a  set  meeting  time  for  the 
entire  staff.  All  staff  members  re- 
ceived stipends  based  on  their

organization  on  the  campus.  It 
symbolizes  the  collection  of

Studying,  of  course,  was  part  of  the  year.  That 
was  why  each  student  applied  for  admission  to 
college,  to  study.  Yet  it  seemed  that  some  students 
had  to  be  prodded  each  step  of  the  way.  The  year 
was  filled  with  students  skipping  class,  turning 
assignments  in  late  and  not  doing  the  assigned 
readings. 

Studying  was  to  serve  a  purpose— to  become 
better  educated  beings— and  the  university  want- 
ed proof  that  the  students  were  holding  up  to  their 
end  of  the  bargain.  Thus  the  GAAP  test  was  given 
to  the  sophomores  as  a  standard  to  evaluate  the 
students  on  a  holistic  level. 

Term  papers  were  brought  to  the  computer  age 
as  library  searches  were  expedited  with  the  installa- 
tion of  the  computerized  card  catalog.  A  struggling 
student  could  always  find  support,  through  peers 
and  mentors  alike. 

One  step  closer  the  students  set  forth  in  their 
search  of  their  niche  in  society. 

Although  there  are  students  who  are  content 
with  "just  getting  by",  there  are  those  students  who 
aim  for  higher  goals.  Awards  and  achievements  are 
a  vital  motivational  force  for  the  outstanding  stu- 
dents on  campus.  It  honors  those  who  have 
worked  diligently  throughout  their  educational  ca- 
reers. Awards  and  achievements  range  from  schol- 
arships to  service  awards  for  organizational  involve- 
ment. Each  recipient  is  deserving  of  their  honors.

ment, and  a  personal  interview  consisting  of  a  panel  of 
faculty  and  students.  Also  a  Miss  Senior,  lunior.  Sopho- 
more, and  Freshman  were  crowned.  Each  young  lady  is

The  end  of  May  has  a  significant  meaning  to  USCS 

liors.  All  looked  ahead  to  new  experiences,  yet 
.  ctter  prepared  for  them  because  of  USCS.  They 
knew  that  their  diploma  meant  more  than  just 
graduation,  it  also  meant  student  life  that  was  active, 
sports  that  brought  national  attention  to  their  win- 
ning records,  academics  that  both  challenged  and 
frustrated,  faculty  who  supported  and  encouraged, 
organizations  that  added  an  opportunity  for  involve- 
ment, and  fellow  students  who  helped  each  other 
grow  and  have  fun  together  Being  at  USCS  made  a 
difference  for  everyone  who  was  here— a  difference 
that  made  them  a  marketable  prospective  employ- 
ees and  cultivated  the  progress  of  the  whole  person. 

Since  its  founding,  USCS  has  witnessed  the  ever 
changing  community  of  Spartanburg.  More  and 
more  each  year  the  city  expands  and  further  devel- 
ops commercially,  yielding  a  vast  variety  of  busi- 
nesses. 

Many  businesses  in  the  area  buy  advertisements  in 
the  yearbook  as  a  way  of  advertising  and  showing 
support  for  the  school. 

A  major  advantage  in  purchasing  an  ad  in  the 
yearbook  is  that  the  3500  students  are  not  the  only 
readers  of  the  yearbook.  The  faculty,  staff,  adminis- 
trators, parents,  and  businesses  also  see  the  adver- 
tisements and  therefore  patronize  their  business. 

It  is  through  the  Carolana  that  the  community 
recognizes  the  school  and  the  school  recognizes  the 
community.

The 


r 


At  the  beginning  of 
September  each  stu- 
dent embarked  on  a 
year  unlike  any  other 
before. 

The  out-of-the-or- 
dinary  and  unspeak- 
able became  every- 
day  and   common- 
place. No  sane  person 
would   ever   believe 
that  a  person  would 
stand  in  line  for  over  an 
hour  to  change  a  class. 
And  that  same  student 
would  later  in  the  year 
volunteer  time  to  raise 
money  for  a  charity,  or

There  were  suc- 
cesses and  there  were 
failures.  Of  course, 
each  student  wanted 
to  forget  the  failures, 
whether  playing  on 
the  field,  in  the  aca- 
demic field  or  in  the 
personal  field. 

Each  student  began 
the  year  poised  for 
perfection.  Hopes 
were  high.  Goals  were 
set.  For  some,  this 
would  be  the  end  of 
their  days  in  college 
—  closer  than  before. 
For  others,  this  would 
be  the  beginning.  For 
all,  this  year  was  des- 
tined for  ...  distinc- 
tion.

Adding  a  new  perspective  from  each  student  is 
how  the  university  grows  and  progresses  toward  its 
academic  goal  of  excellence.  The  input  from  the 
collective  minds  of  the  student  body  helps  to  build 
upon  the  USCS  tradition.  This  interaction  takes  the 
thoughts  of  years  past  and  adapts  them  for  use  in  a 
future  context,  allowing  the  university  to  develop 
and  grow. 

All  students  add  to  as  well  as  takes  from  this 
institution  certain  aspects  and  characteristics  which 
are  unique  to  their  educational  experience.  Through 
interaction  with  others,  we  gain  a  great  deal  of 
insight  and  information  about  the  world  around  us. 
Opening  doors  to  knowledge  and  imparting  that 
unto  others  allows  the  dialogue  of  shared  ideas  to 
be  continued.  This  unique  exchange  of  ideas  is  one 
in  which  the  student  as  well  as  the  school  will  be 
enhanced  forever. 

With  its  vast  array  of  classes,  organizations,  and 
social  activities,  USCS  allows  students  to  experiment 
with  many  opportunities  which  are  new  and  differ- 
ent. 

All  of  these  aspects  have  allowed  USCS  to  be- 
come destined  for  .  .  .  distinction.

As  the  year  comes  down  to  an  end, 
Spartanburg  and  USCS  have  grown.  Many 
new  food  establishments  have  staked  their 
claim  in  Spartanburg.  Also,  brand  new  apart- 
ments have  been  constructed.  Not  only  has 
Spartanburg  grown,  USCS  has  grown,  with 
it.  A  new  building  is  in  the  process  of 
construction  in  order  to  better  serve  the  size 
and  needs  of  the  campus.  The  athletic  teams 
have  added  numerous  District  Six  champ- 
ionships to  our  honor.  The  clubs  and  organi- 
zations also  experienced  growth.  Some 
clubs  became  more  active  and  some  receiv- 
ed their  largest  membership  ever.  Growth 
occurred  academically,  athletically,  and  in 
organizations.  This  sentence  ends  "Destined

accomplishments,  victories,  honors  and 
most  of  all,  people.

Editor's 
Notes 


When  I  was  chosen  to  be  the  editor  of  the 
Carolana  in  November,  I  had  no  idea  what  the 
future  was  to  bring.  Filled  with  excitement  and 
apprehension,  I  undertook  the  task.  Hodge  244  has 
never  been  the  same. 

The  hours  that  the  staff  and  I  have  spent  in  the 
yearbook  room  amongst  croppers,  grease  pencils, 
layout  sheets,  and  copy  sheets  have  been  filled 
with  laughter  and  exasperation.  Meeting  deadlines 
is  a  chore  which  every  yearbook  staff  must  face;  to 
us,  they  have  meant  spending  many  Friday  eve- 
nings, Saturday  mornings,  and  holidays  in  that  hot 
Hodge  building.  When  deadlines  are  not  met 
because  of  an  incorrectly  drawn  layout,  editors 
tend  to  get  irate.  When  the  tension  is  about  to 
snap,  one  must  laugh.  It  is  at  these  times  that  I  am 
thankful  to  have  such  a  hard-working,  diligent  staff. 

The  completion  of  the  Carolana  would  be 


impossible  without  the  help  of  many  wonderful 
people.  I  would  like  to  extend  a  special  thanks  to 
my  best  friend.  Tammy  Grizzle,  for  the  time,  love, 
and  support  that  she  has  given  me  this  year. 
Without  Dr.  William  Jong-Ebot,  I  do  not  know  how 
the  book  would  have  gotten  finished.  Thanks  for  all 
the  time  you  spent  proofreading  pages.  To  Audio 
Visuals,  the  Carolana  is  indebted. 

I  would  also  like  to  thank  my  staff.  They  have 
worked  hard  on  this  book  and  have  put  up  with 
me  through  thick  and  thin.  You  guys  are  the  best 
staff  anyone  could  ever  have.  Being  editor  of  the 
Carolana  has  been  a  challenge,  one  that  I  am 
thankful  to  have  undertaken.  This  past  year  has 
been  the  worst  and  best  of  my  life.  I  have  learned 
many  valuable  lessons  from  my  editorship;  it  has 
been  an  experience  I  will  never  forget. 

Sincerely, 
Monica  Stanley
