A proposal is being considered that would allow the USC Institute of Archeology and Anthropology to share the mill with the state museum, according to Christopher Vlahoplus, senior vice president for administration. Vlahoplus said in a letter to the governor's office last June,"The Mount Vernon mill provides an ideal facility for the educational programs offered by both entities." The university's plan hinges on the acceptance of the museum's proposal by the State Budget and Control Board, the Bond Committee and the governor, according to Robert * Davis, adviser to USC President James Holderman. The proposal was recently approved by the State General Assemblv. Davis said the state museum needed space and proposed using part of Mount Vernon Mills located on Gervais Street near the Congaree River. The university's plan also included housing space in the mill for the Movietonews Collection ac. rding to Vlahoplus' letter.

If the museum's proposal passes, the university will launch its plans for acquisition of the remaining space in the mill. The project would include renovating 67,000 square feet of the mill for the Institute of Anthropology. The entire department would move, and space would be divided to include offices, labs, a meeting room and equipment rooms.

"Museum officials are as enthusiastic as we are regarding the project." Davis said that in the event the state acquires the building, space for the university's use may be sold, rented or contributed. The construction of a new building adjacent to the campus would be used exclusively as a newsfilm library. The building would include administrative offices, areas for distribution of materials, space to house tapes, discs and research carrels and a multi-purpose auditorium for viewing workshops,etc. "The concept of the building has received favorable reaction in the assembly," Vlahoplus said.
