USC must grow
to serve well
To expand or not to expand is not the- question. The heart
of the matter is adequacy. To properly serve the people of
this state and others, USC must expand to offer the best
and most diversified education possible.
To fall short-to fall to offer the expanding number of
courses needed in our expanding technological society or
to fail to keep up to match the increase in the number of
qualified college students - is to fall in the academic
pursuit.
We at the University cannot become involved so deeply
in the personal pursuit of knowledge that we forget the
future.
To forget about new buildings - for business ad
ministration, nursing or law-or to neglect the needs of the
students-libraries, dormitories-or to neglect the faculty
and staff would impair the functioning of the University as
an institution of education. USC plans calls for progress in
all these areas which will keep pace with increased
enrollment and faculty positions.
University officials have announced specific plans for
the growth of the campus. We sincerely hope they will be
able to meet the needs of the state with the help of the
people to whom we look for the financing needed to support
adequate education. Bonding authority must be given by
the state before USC can reach its full potential.
Sexpo fills need
With Sexpo-USC the Carolina campus has moved foward
in the solving one of the myriad problems of the modern
campus.
There are few educated people who will deny the
American citizenry is hung-up on the sex issue and that
most educational institutions have copped out by denying
the existence of sex or denying that its students are aware
of its existence.
Carolina has joined the handful of progressive campuses
who wish to do something about the problem.-which
ranges from dormitory restrictions to pre-maritital sex
and the use of contraceptives.
During Sexpo many authoritative speakers were heard
and many of what many adults would label as radical
innovations were advocated.
As many students marvelled at the common sense with
which these experts approached sex and its ramifications,
they thought of the often provincial and embarrassed
manner in which their parents broached the subject to
them.
If one thing is to be learned from this symposium, it is
that sex is not a matter to be whispered about in secret or
scratched on the bathroom walls. It is a subject whose
understanding is important to the psychological and
sociological growth of the individual.
Sex is not to be forgotten or hushed up. It must be
examined closely by the entire University in a factual and
learned manner, and we have taken the first steps here at
USC, but only the first.

Letters
Racial
Dear Mr. Stepp:
On Thursday, Nov. 13, a group of
people were enjoying some brew at
Don's, a favorite pub of the USC
students. Among this group were
two black students. This carefree
atmosphere was broken by a voice
over the loudspeaker, interrupting
the music: "Company policy, we
hate niggers."
Stunned by this remark, the
people at Don's showed mixed
reactions. The voice apparently
referred to a black male student
dancing with a white female. A
white friend of the black student
involved approached the owner
and asked who was responsible for
the announcement. The owner
replied, "I hate niggers and he is a
nigger."
Some people at Don's that night
regarded this statement as a
blatant racial insult. We. the un
dersigned, are writing this letter in
support of an American citizen's
right to choose his own company.

No pictures
Dear Mr. Stepp:
A dejected Towers Council
adjourned Tuesday night. We were
dejected over the matter of our
pictures not being taken for the
Garnet and Black.
We were promised a
photographer either Monday or
Tuesday night. No one showed up
either night. We were disappointed
mainly because a few weeks ago
the Garnet and Black was com
plaining that no one was asking
them to take pictures.
This letter was approved by the
Council and is not just a reflection
of a few members opinions.

'Trying
i.s unne(
(The following article was
submitted by Dr. Hatvey L.
Burnette Jr., director of the
Student Health Center. Ed's note.)
Hats off to the Visiting Scholars
Program; Carolina Students were
offered the opportunity last week
to hear a most outstanding and
highly qualified expert on sexology
who lectured with oratorical
perfection and superb knowledge
of his subject, "Sexual Maturity."
Ed Chen's column in the Nov. 14
Gamecock which attacked Prof.
Hettlinger's words as "absurd"
and refered to him as a "so called
sex expert," besides exhibiting
poor taste and disrespect for this
scholar of high calibre and in
ternational renown, illustrated to
us the extent to which some in
dividuals will attempt to
rationalize their sexual im
maturity, sexual misconceptions
and or unrestrained sexual desires
and activities.
Dr. Hettlinger's lecture on
Tuesday evening in the Campus
Room, which was well attended,
and his other discussions were, I'm
sure, most meaningful to the clear
thinking students of Carolina who
attended these in quest of
knowledge and understanding.
It is indeed unfortunate that Mr.
Chen fosters the notion that "less
and less of today's young people
seem to care much about lasting
relationships" and advocates
"trying out" sexually and
<cohabitantly as a substitute . for
lasting relationships. This he
thinly disguised in his column;
however, it is evidently the idea he
is fostering.
To put it bluntly, from an
anatomical standpoint this "trying
out" process is unnecessary and of
no practical use when one
recognizes there is not this much
variation in the genital anatomy.
"Trying out" and cohabitation are
poor substitutes or comparisons
for normal marital relationships

out' sex
1essary
since these are artificial
arrangementi without the mature
love and family motivation so
necessary to marital success; such
experimentation serves only as
immature justification for extra
marital or pre-marital sex
relations.
I doubt that Mr. Chen has
reviewed the statistics indicating
the high divorce rate for persons
who practiced permarital sexual
relations, and his argument that
divorce would be diminished if
premarital sex and cohabitation
were commonly acceptable and
practiced certainly appeart
grossly inaccurate
During the past ten years
specialization in student health.It
has been my lot to diagnose
pregnancy in large numbers of
"illegitmate" coed mothers and to
become involved in breaking the
"happy" news to the "trapped"
fathers.......their mod concepts of
free love, carefree romance,
sexual revolution, trying out, t
experimentation, cohabitation,
etc. fizzle away into a very dark
cloud of numerous complications
and disturbing unpleasantries; not
to overlook the many modern
thinkers) who end up trans
mitting venereal disease and the
misinformed girls who submit to
criminal abortion and suffer un
fortunate complications which
sometimes last a lifetime.
Does Mr. Chen plan to encourage
his daughters and sons to practice
"trying out" and cohabitation? Did
his parents select each other in
this manner? Will he choose his
wife through this elimination
process? Has our cilivation fallen
to this low level?
Do intelligent and decent human
beings have to succumb to the
tents of "this increasingly per
missive society?" Shall we ignore
and turn our backs on the Bible,
Commandments and our religious
teachings? I hope not.
