QUESTION: Professor Bargar,
how long have you been teaching
at USC?
.%NSWER: I came here in 1954,
so that makes 14 years.
Q: What do you think of the
camp1u.S?
DR. BARGAR
A: When I came here it was a
very small intimate little place.
Now, all of a sud<Ien in the last
five years it's exploded!
Q: What are some of the
changes you've seen?
A: As far as the population ex
plosion, the students have gotten
far too numerous. The faculty is
also increasing. We used to meet
in a small room in Rutledge Col

lege. We couldn't even fit in
there now.
There was a time that if I had
a freshman class with 75 people
in it, I thought I had a large
class, and now (I have) 150 in
each class.
Q: What besides freshman
courses do you teach?
A: My particular interest is
"The Expansion of Europe,"
which includes European colonies
and empires and also Africa,
which is my favorite part of the
course. The second semester when
I deal with Africa is dessert; I'm
earning my meat and potatoes in
History 101, I'm afraid.
Q: What do you think of stu
dent-faculty relations here?
A: I read complaints in The
Gamecock about it from time to!
time, but I think this is simply a
fact that we both have to acce )t
in any state university.
State universities are always
big places and they're the places
students are more inclined to feel
that they are just numbers or
IBM cards.
I think the student has to real- t
ize that and choose a small, pir.
haps private or church school,1
where . . . he can get more indi
vidual attention. . . . There are
lots of places, I think, even in a
large university where he can get
more personal contact. i
Most student organizations, for
instance, have faculty advisers.
. . . It's hardest, of course, for
a freshman to assert his indi
viduality as best he can in some r
sort of organization and get what
ever amount of personal attention
he requires.
Q: What ma(le you become a
professor ?
A: I suppose it was very largely

because I admired two or thre
men with whom I worked alon
the line. I think I probably too
them as sort of heroes and wante
to do what they were doing.
Q: What have been some o
your more rewarding moments?
A: There's always summer vac:
'ion. I mean that more serioust
)erhaps than it sounds becaus
I've been fortunate enough to hav
nade several extensive trips dui
ng the summers. Last summer
vent to East Africa.
I suppose a more orthodox, b
qually true answer is that ever

Q: What is your interest i
africa?
A: I'm particularly interested i
ertain similarities between th
ormer British colonies in Eas
kfrica and the history of our ow
,hirteen colonies. What I'm inter
-sted in is the number and th
zinds of Iritish institutions whic
vere transferred to a non-Euro
>ean area of the world, under th
olonial administration, and the
tow many of them continued t
xist.
Q: What advice do you have fo
tudents thinking of majoring i
istory?
A: My advice would be so t o
iegative. If you're trying to de
ide between two different thing
. . if you've got even a doubt i
!our miind, I'd say do the othe
,hing. It's only if you want to d

hat you should even consider g<
ng into it. And then the reward
vill be self-evident, you'll be ik
ng what you want to do.
