He said that these standards should be defined by the courts because legislation is "a convenient tool for social responsibility" and that laws that can be passed can as easily be repealed. made foi through J.AN. Formerly, C. U. had to announce that applications were being accepted 12 weeks before the end of the semester and could only accept them for two weeks. Now they are accepted five weeks prior to the beginning of the semester of a student's participation. In a second chanbe, the Faculty Senate approved mod ular grading for a student's pro ject.

Caldwell said C. U. has sub mitted a proposal to the Com mittee on Curriculum and New Courses to extend the possibil ity or participation in CU to two semesters in "extraordinary cases." C. U., a semester-long inde pendent study program, will continue to have its "com munity atmosphere," Caldwell' said. "We provide a home for students in the program to learn from each other and out semi nars provide an opportunity for a tremendous amount of broadening. "We have also asked this semester's participants to pre sent their projects to the Spring semester students to let them know more about what the experience of CU involves," Caldwell said. Tunnel duc A select group of Poole and Kent Company employees have completed digging by hand a tunnel 265 feet long and less than five feet wide at the University of South Carolina. The project is part of the pre liminary work for construction of the new main library at USC. Officials for Pooleoole and Kent Company, a sub contractor on the library pro ject, said the tunnel extended from Blossom Street to the lib rary excavation site, a distance of approximately 2 blocks and 50 feet beneath existing build ings on campus. The elevations involved in the tunnel work and the close toler ances necessary, demanded the tunnel be dug by hand rather than using normal boring or augering mathods. The manual digging method allowed project managers and the drews to make corrections as they were needed. stands at the existing build ranels he and metal caisson y feet below off Blossom Si CR/ Worried about exams?

I by hand The tunnel has been construc ted to provide gravity flow to drainage tie-ins. Construction officials claim this was neces sary because of the unusually low elevations of the lower levels of the projected seven story library and the absense of similiar sewer elevations in the immediate vicinity of the planned library. Crews for the digging project took turns either digging or removing the earth from the tunnel by means of a small railroad-like device. Shoring for the tunnel was put in place as the digging profressed. Tunnel construction actually was completed before major excavation work at the library site was finished. That end of the tunnel was closed temporar ily to discourage seepage of dirt and water into the tunnel before the main excavation finally reached tunnel depth.
