USC's i pleased By Robert Reoves Staff Writer After serving nearly a year on the USC Board of Trustees, Lily-Roland Hall says she's pleased with the support she's been eiven as the first and only female board member. Hall, 36, was elected to the 20-member board by the General Assembly in March 1980 for a four year term. "When I first came on the board there was quite a bit of publicity about my being the only woman, but I can't really say that it has had any special effect on the way I've been treated," Hall said. "I feel I have the total respect r\f oil ? vi uii utFcu u inciiiuri a and they've all been very helpful and responsive." IN ADDITION to serving on the full board which meets monthly, Hall is a member of several standing _ committees. The committee that gives Hall the most contact with USC students is the Student-Trustee Liaison n - 1 ~ ^ommmee, composed oi Student Government leaders and board members. "I have really been impressed with the Student Government leaders at USC," Hall said. "I think the communication on the committee has been good, although I try not to limit my communication with the students simply on that committee. I am on campus quite a lot so any student who wishes to voice opinions or make suggestions can have access to me." As a former USC student and a member of the Student-Trustee Liaison Committee, Hall thinks she hoc *? ftAAfi rvf wuo ci ^uuu lucu ui Wild I students consider to be major problems. "I'M SURE that housing and parking are still major concerns for students because they were even when I went to USC," said Hall. "But to be honest, I don't think either of these problems can be totally i mkIpyc Firs in Minutes Daily in Controlled Safe Get That Sexy Loo Get That vacation One Minute Equal of Sun > vlslt 912 KNOXABBO I 2 MINUTES FROI\ ^welcome I Female I I with tri alleviated. i?TA.>~ ? -'1 " - ii s a situation 01 tradeoff. With a limited amount of land there is only so much that you can do. Decisions have to be made on whether to build on that land or to pave it for parking. And even then you want to keep trees and grass on the campus. Simply putting asphalt on everything isn't desirable either," Hall said. Increasing student activity fees also concerns Hall. 44I had to vote in favor oi mat increase," Hall said. "I'm sorry it is necessary, but the money to support student activities must come from somewhere. Somebody's got to pay for it, and in this case it's the student." HALL ALSO said she was concerned with the federal ruling that USC and pight other state universities and ILOOKIN CHAI i nen pel in the N STUDENT I An opportunity to attend one of 40 other universities or colleges across the country !

"As I look at it, USC itself is probably in compliance or very close to being in compliance with the requirements," Hall said. "But the fact remains that there is a predominantly black college in Orangeburg (S.C. State) and what affects one affects us all." The 7 percent budget cut called for by the state Budget and Control Board is another problem soon to be faced by USC, Hall said. "THIS BUDGET bill is winding its way through the legislature and if it is passed, something will have to give," Hall "Fewer freshmen will be able to enter the university because of tougher entrance requirements, and the j number of faculty will have G FOR A I MCE? rticipate ATIONAL EXCHANGE I >more and Junior 2.5 CPR or better xchange for 1 or 2 ilnKlA -*4 uawic ca t JtUMCl 119 | j RH 777-5117 I ine?Feb. 20 [j nHMBBMHMnHUBflBMBKflBB ] ITES YOUl RT YOUR f\N NOW!

Hall said faculty reduction would hurt the university's attempt to comply with desegregation requirements because minority faculty members have the least seniority. The Commission on Higher Education's proposal to do away with certain twoyear college programs would have a similar effect on desegregation efforts. There is a high percentage of minorities in USC's College of General Studies which would be most affected by the commission's proposal. Hall has three years of her j nrsi ooara term left and she says that within that time some of the university's problems can be solved.
