Although fall has officially arrived, temperatures stif
soared into the upper 80's last week and many students
abandoned the air-conditioners and window fans for
more natural relief. Here, the best of friends share in
the simple pleasures of the Russell House fountain.

'A Kind Of Acad
BY CECIL WILLIAMSON
Gamecock Staff Writer
Students transferring from
the College of General Studies
to other colleges within the
University are not allowed to
transfer all of the credits
earned under their Associate in
Science or Bachelor of General
Studies Degree programs into
credits toward other bac
calaureate programs.
Susannah Lufler was in
General Studies for one year
and decided to switch to
education. In transition, only
three of her 30 hours in General
Studies were accepted by the
College of Education. She
has since returned to General
Studies for her BGS degree.
The USC Bulletin states:
"Validation of terminal credits
for the _ baccalaureate
programs is left to the
discretion of the dean in
volved". What this is saying is
that some courses offered in
General Studies are not ac
ceptable, or have no
equivalents, in other bac
calaureate programs.
Dr. Bert Dillon, Dean of Arts
and Letters, said "Many
courses offered in general
studies are for special pur
poses that do not necessarily
have any relevance to other
programs. "
The Dean of General Studies,
Dr. H.E. Varney agrees,
saying that GS does not offer
courses with the same format
as that in other colleges
because that would amount to
a duplication process which is
not necessary.
Assistant Dean Ada Thomas
of Business Administration
said, "Students transferring to
the College of Business Admin
istration from the College of
General Studies have their
records evaluated on an in
dividual basis. The College of

Today is the deadline for
those campus organizations
that have not turned in their
registration cards for active
status during the academic
year 1973-74.
Any campus organizations
not turning in these cards
today will have to appear
before the Student
Organization Chartering
Commission for a return to
active status.
These cards may be mailed
or returned to Robert
Alexander, dean for student
affairs, 212 Pendleton
Building. For further in
formation call 2780.

This leads to the crux of the
problem. The General
Assembly has said any
graduate of a two-year
technical program can come to
Carolina and have all his
credits transferred, whereas
the only program intowhich a
two-year graduate of this in
stitution can go and have all his
credits taken is the Bachelor of
General Studies.
As John Gardner in the t
College of General Studies
says, "You're worse off going
in a two-year program at the
University in terms of tran
sferability of credits than you t

are to go to any tech school.
And we have all kinds of
reasons to believe that the
instruction we are giving here
is far superior."
When'asked why he thought
there was this large
discrepancy in policy, Gardner
replied, "I think it is a kind of
prejudice, a kind of academic
snobbery, a bias against
something that is more
practical rather than in
tellectual for the sake of being
intellectual."
Dillon proposed that each
lepartment at the University
evaluate each course from
ach institution (whether
echnical or the College of
3eneral Studies of Carolina)
md determine which courses
Yould be acceptable to bac
:alaureate programs (other
