Vlahoplus said the cost of an alumni membership is $10 a
year for USC graduates or $15 a year for a joint membership.
However, to attract graduates to join the Alumni
Association, a free membership is given for the first year
after graduation, and for the next two years, membership is
offered at a 50-percent discount for each year.
All members of the Alumni Association are entitled to the
reciprocal-campus benefits plus other benefits including
book-club discounts, tour-information s#?rvif?/?? nnH e?voroi
alumni publications including the Carolina Quarterly and
The Carolinian, Vlahoplus said.
Also there is a proposal before USC President James B.
Holderman to expand the services of the placement office to
assist alumni and "to respond to the needs of the alumni,"
Vlahoplus said.
One of the goals of the Alumni Association is to double the
current membership of 7,200 by Dec. 31, 1979, according to
Vlahoplus. To help accomplish this goal, a student-alumni
organization has been set up on campus of which one of
their functions will be to phone past graduates informing
and encouraging them to join the Alumni Association.
