(JSC is attempting to meet a July (
1 deadline for making buildings (
and other structures accessible to .
the handicapped. The deadline was ]
set in 1973 under Vocational (
Rehabilitation Act 504. (
Just how the university is ,
progressing toward meeting that j
deadline is unknown because
Victoria rox, head of Affirmative
Action was unavailable for comment.
Fox, who will report on
(JSC's efforts to make the school
accessible, is the only university
official with the information.
While not every building on
campus has been made accessible
to the handicapped the director of
services lor Handicapped Mudents
here, Brenda Cooper, says
problems with structural barriers
are often overcome by coor- <
dinating scheduling and space for j
the physically impaired student. |

Cooper said she expects 60
students to seek her program's i
assistance in the fall, adding that

Cooper credits the state's

;ampus structures as part of USC
attractiveness to the handicapped.
Elevator shafts in Barnwell
College are being changed to accomodate
wheelchairs, while
Career Planning in Harper College
is moving to make room for
classrooms for the College of
Social Work, in which some handicapped
students are enrolled,
she said.
Special priority for housing is
given to the handicapped here,
Cooper said. There are 26 spaces
for men and 88 spaces for women,
as well as four apartments for
married couples, she said.
ANTHONY RAYMOND, a 24year-old
quadroplegic philosophy
major, says there are still some
Carriers at USC "but they are
small barriers-things like trash
:ans being in the way, or door
(nobs being out of reach."
"Some of the biggest barriers
ire students themselves," he said.
Finding attendants and aides can
ae difficult, he says, not because
it's hard work, but because
students don't want to become
involved. Raymond said of the
"barrier-proof room" in Rutledge
College, "I'd like to meet the
person who designed that room,
