'Che ©amtcock Graduate from page 1 To boost stipends and maintain the same number of students, the universi ty would have to either get more mon ey from the state or cut other programs. “Something has to give for there to be more money,” Welsh said. But Nolan said the university might need to increase the level of funding to get the quality students necessary to earn an invitation to the AAU. “If we’re trying for AAU [status], we need to be focusing on quality of grad students, not quantity,” she said. She used the example of having 20 students making $1,000 a semester. “Why not recruit ten of the best stu dents and give them more money?” she asked. According to Nolan, assistants at some institutions don’t pay tuition. “They may not get paid a whole lot,” she said. “But they don’t have to pay a whole lot.” Some students almost certainly take second jobs, Nolan said. And while the university discourages — but does not prohibit — second jobs, Nolan admit ted it was a contradiction to do so with current stipend levels. “Absolutely,” she said. “And that is why we can’t prevent it.” The university desk can be reached at gamecockudesk@hotmail.com. ——^ Visit the Carnet & Black Submissions table on Greene Street today!
