Although these seminars were closed circuit and vatched predominantly by doctors, Lange said )lans were being made for programs benefitting the ayman. "We have a lot of knowledge and we want to .hare it." The seminars were transmitted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's x)rtable earth terminal and beamed to a satellite for -e-transmission to the various hospitals. The NASA erminal, housed in a van, contains facilities to beam ocally produced programs to the satellite and will be stationed at S.C. ETV on Woodrow Street. FUTURE PLANS include two-way seminars between USC and the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. "The trade of information would be beneficial to both faculties," said Lange.
