UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA CROWING FOR A GREATER CAROLINA Volume XLI, No. 28 COLUMBIAt SOUTH CAROLINA, MARCH 1, 1947 Fann,t'us "M Adoption Regency New Deal In Ed Offered By Ho By BOB Consideration of the propot Carolina colleges was left to a the announcement that meml of the schools would appear 1 specified date. Rep. Thomas Pope, chairma committee, stated that these member of his group to set a I At a public hearing held I Chamber, President Norma: recommendations and suggestions concerning the proposed bill drawn up by the committee. Smith said he favored the limit ing of an overall council to "allo cation of subjects and funds and to presenting budgets." He also suggested that boards of trustees be left in control of the individual colleges. The president recommended that a council for higher education be set up, composed'of the six presi dents of the state-supported insti tutions and one member from each board of trustees, with one mem ber from the state education. Smith also said that this co ordinating council should not take the responsibility of allocating en dowments which, under the pro posed bill, would be given only to the central board. The president asked that the respective schools continue to receive such funds as were contributed to them by donors. The salary listed by the propo sal ($7,500) was considered too large by the president, if the chair man of the board should act as secretary alone, but too small if it was intended that he be chan cellor of a university system simi lar to that of Nor!li Carolina. The bill, as proposed by the sub committee, would consist of one member from each congressional district, one member from the state-at-large, all appointed by the governor upon recommendation of the legislature, and also, one mem ber from each of the boards of trustees. Pope stated that "this is the first move by the Assembly to create a new deal for education in South Carolina."
