CU accepts
58 students
for Spring
The Contemporary University
Advisory Board last night ac
cepted the applications of 58
students for participation during
the Spring semester.
There are 53 separate projects
which range from a movie on the
life of Archibald Rutledge, to a
team project which will be con
ducted during the summer at the
Democratic National Convention.
All participants will meet
Monday Dec. 13 in the basement of
Davis College to discuss
registration and student-advisor
contact. Two meetings have been
planned for the convenience of
participants. The first will begin
at 10:03 a.m., the second at 3:52
p.m.
"We had hoped for a larger
number of applications from
departments for which we feel CU
is adequately suited," Rick
Kassachau, faculty director of CU
said. Ten more applications can be
accepted for the Spring.
Kasschau said that applications
from students majoring in art or
music were encouraged.
"In addition, we are hoping for a
slightly greater diversity of
students in the Spring semester,"
he said. "While we recognize there
are difficulties with available
credit hours, we would like to
encourage more applications from
the professional schools such as
education, nursing and
engineering."
Dr. Richard Nuttal said that the
Heart Association was willing to
co-operate with students who,
wanted to study that area. Dr.
Kasschau also said he could
suggest several projects that could
be done through education,
psychology or social work.
The social work project involves
on-site work in a poverty area in S.
C. There is a possibility of another
project through the Division of
Student Affairs coordinating
student volunteers at the Midlands
Community Action Agency.
Students who are interested in
these projects may contact Rick
Kasschau or Deb Stirling at the
Contemporary University office,
telephone 777-4824. The deadline
for all applications is Thursday,
Dec. 9.
''Happy dorm"
challenges all
BY LARRY EVANS
Staff Writer
The Christmas season has
arrived at USC.
Earlier this week, tenement 15
on the Horseshoe became the first
dorm to decorate Its front. Using
only $4.84, they decorated their
building with a large tree, a blue
garland over the front door and
artificial snow on the windows.
The tree is covered with the
usual lights and tinsel, but Its top is
dominated by an unusual
multicolor revolving light.
No single person takes credit for
this achievement because It is the
combined project of their "happy
dorm." Everyone took equal part
in the project and everyone takes
equal pride in it;

Burger King:
fed Carolina Cares.
workers 22,287 fries
BY SCOTT DERKS
Staff Writer
A huge cloth sign which coverecd the front window of the
Burger King on College Street read : CAROLINA CARES
HEADQUARTERS (sic).
No one seemed to mind the misspelling, least of all the
Carolina Cares workers who crowded into the restaurant
all day long for the free food Burger King provided to help
Carolina Cares.
. Jerry Lynch, head of the four Burger Kings in Columbia,
estimated that 437 Whoppers, 22,287 french fries and
enough drinks to satisfy the army.of workers were given
away Wednesday.
Steve Cannon, one of the project leaders, said, "Without
the help of Burger King we would really have trouble.
They provide us food and help us keep the group together. I
really don't know what we would do without them."
Burger King, which also supports church and civic
projects, contributed $415.20 in food to Carolina Cares this
year and provided $356.20 worth of food last year.
"The reason we do it is simple," Lynch said. "We try to
be part of the community and so we try to participate In all
kinds of things. Carolina Cares is a fabulous project and
lets the people of the state and Columbia know that
students do care and are willing to do something."
Lynch said, "We receive a lot of our income from the
University, and we don't mind turning some of it back.
Besides, Carolina Cares is the best promotion project that
Carolina has done In a long time.'"
