Instead, they would be available to the entire University community. With the Center concept it would be possible to bring these visiting faculty members for longer periods of time. These professors would be academic members of outstanding reputation and im peccable academic credentials. Another feature of the Center was to bring in visiting fellows and make them available to the University at large. The idea is a very altruistic one, Dillon said. It may be that Patterson's ad_ ministration has found ways to incorporate the ideas within the existing system.

Commission on Higher Education. The Com mission felt that any new center or institute in South Carolina would have to get its approval because there was no point in having several other campuses serving the same purpose, said Provost Keith Davis. The Center operated on very limited funds last year and func tioned on a small scope. Davis said he believed the Commission would have eventually approved the Center. An additional aspect of the Center was to create a faculty redevelopment plan at USC. This would give a faculty member time off to develop a new course or to broaden his knowledge of a discipline other than his own in order to better teach his discipline. Outside work such as this could be done without fear of being penalized in salary, tenure, or promotion. In discussion with Oliver, Dillon said many of the Center's ideas may be instituted in other areas of the University. A report on this will go to Patterson later in the year. But the fate of the Center for Cultural Development has perhaps already been decided. "The Center doesn't really exist," Patterson said. "It never really existed except in the minds of a few people. The concept may not be dead, Dillon said. Some of the Center's ideas will perhaps be found in the South Carolina College concept. "We may see some of the same ideas through a different vehicle. It is hard to keep down a good idea."
