CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS
BEGIN DECEMBER 21
All Work Will Be Resumed
January 2.
The University of South Car
olina will close on December
21, for the Christmas holidays
and work to be resumed on
January 2, 1919. The present
courses of study will be con
tinued until the beginning of
the second term. Immediately
after. the mid-year examina
tions in February the univei,
sity will resume all of its regu
lar courses. It is expected that
the federal government will re
store the Reserve Officers'
Training Corps which was in
operation for the session of
1916-1917. The military train
ing of the R. O. T. C. will not
interfere to any considerable
extent with the regular courses
and routine of the university.

a large number of the former
students now enlisted.,in war
service will return to the uni
versity at the beginning of the
next sepester. Several of the
professors also will resume
work, among these are Dr.
Mills, professors Oscar L.
Keith, Bruce Coleman, H. C.
