Counseling Burea Basic Lea By SID GRIFFIN Every year many students fail o do poorly in classes when they could have done much better. Sometimes this is not because the students refused to study or didn't put forth the effort. Lack of basic study skills, such as effective reading, effective listening and effective note taking may be the reason. These and other skills are taught in short courses offered by the Counseling Bureau in the Com News Officials in the University of South Carolina Athletic Depart ment refuse to comment on a bill recently introduced by South Carolina Senator Thomas . Led, mond Garrison, (Dem.-Anderson). Garrison's bill would require the University of South Carolina and Clemson University to compete in basketball at least once a year, beginning with the 1974-75 season. Head basketball coach Frank McGuire has directed his secretary to tell any reporters that he has no comment on the bill. I'd like to set up an appointment for you, but I'm afraid that if I do, the wrath of God willdescend upon me," she said in a telephone in terview 'Tuesday. Assistant oasketball coach Don Walsh said he couldn't make an official comment on the bill but personally, he couldn't understand the controversy that inspired it. "When you have an energy crisis with gas shortages and the possibility of having dollar-a-loaf bread it's silly to worry about two teams playing, against each other," he said. Athletic Director Paul Dietzel Assistant Athletic Director Ralph Floyd and Administration Assistant Robert "Bo ,, Hagan were unavailable for comment. Garrison's bill has been referred to the Senate Standing Committee. I)r. Frederick I.

According to Kathy Sullivan, the coordinator of individualized development, the center offers these courses to help "students with their studying skills, which should help them better them selves in schoolwork." Sullivan, along with Lila Bruckner, the unit coordinator seems to think many students at USC (and elsewhere) could well use one of these courses to help himself in the classroom.

She at tributes the low student interest to the center s lack of publicity and the student's wariness of the classes and teachers. In an effort to offset this wariness, Bruciner went into several English, history and University 101 classes to ex plain the goals of the center to the students. The Communication Skills Development Center's main development courses include speed reading, notetaking briefhand and vocabularly. Their official titles are Effective Reading, Effective Listening, etc. There is also a general collegiate course called "How to Survive in College." This course highlights several of the others and deals with special study problems which might arise including exams. The Center also has many Specialized courses such as the W'terans Upward Bound program for Vets who feel that they are not ready for college yet.
