Q. USC has the only separate
College of Journalism in the state.
Do you foresee the development of
any others and the possibility of
USC's becoming a senior in
stitution?
A. Regional campuses are
beginning to teach more and more
journalism programs. Spar
tanburg and Conway are teaching
lots of courses now and might
eventually develop their own
journalism programs. One thing

we plan to do is hopefully offer
upper level graduate courses in
areas throughout the state such as
Charleston or Greenville. There is
a need for getting these courses out
to people working now. However,
it would be a mistake to get
another journalism school for the
state.
Q. To what do you attribute the
fantastic growth of the College?
A. I attribute it to nationwide
trends in increasing journalism
staffs. There are two trends today
in the business. The larger
operations need more specialists,

whereas the small operations need
more general reporters. With the
economy like it is, a student should
not restrict himself too much since
he never knows exactly what kind
of job he will get.
Q. Can you foresee the USC
College of Journalism ever gaining
the national prominence of such
schools as Columbia, Minnesota,
Northwestern, or Missouri?
A. We think we're in the top 10 or
12 of the 62 journalism schools in
the nation. I think our reputation
hasn't caught up with the quality of
our school. We have stolen two of
Missouri's best teachers, Dr. Price
and Mr. Lanfranco, and all of our
people here have high academic
and professional ac
complishments. The faculty

professional experience.
Q. Is this move toward national
recognition evolutionary or is it a
result of having certain people who
are showing the enthusiasm and
initiative t0 move ahead?
A. I think it is a matter of the
staff we've brought in. We spend a
lot of time and effort recruiting
people. We don't just recruit those
who have the academic
qualifications merited by a Ph.D.
We recruit those people with
outstanding experience who are
also academicians and who are
ready to relate their experiences to
students.
Q. Do you have any personal
dreams for the College of Jour
nalism?
A. We would like to become one
of the best schools in the country:
I'd like to get in the top five. I think
that is within reach in two to five
years. If we could get a couple
hundred thousand dollars for the
next couple of years, we would
have a greater chance to enrich

Q. Do you have any other
commentv you'd like to make?
A. Yr We are one of the first
schools At USC to have student
advisory committees in which
students participate in curriculum
selection and other decisions.
Because of this student input we
feel we have been able to relate our
programs to the individual desires
of students. After all, it's their
education we're interested in.
