The five finalists who make up this year's Homecoming Court are Emily Calloway, Vicki Harrell, Laynie Hipp, Kim Lashway and Lisa Shulz. According to Kevin Schunke, chairman of the Homecoming Selection Committee, the five finalists were chosen from 11 nominees. THERE WERE five judges, chosen from a representative group of students, staff and alumni, who judged the girls according to grade point ratio, university activities, nonuniversity activities, overall appearance and personality. "First the girls were interviewed in small groups by one judge; then they were individually interviewed in front of the entire panel of judges," Schunke said. Homecoming elections will be held this Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. There are three polling places on campus: Carolina Coliseum, Russell House Patio and Pickens Street bridge.

I love broadcasting and interviewing and production," she said. Calloway is the recipient of the McKissick Journalism Scholarship and has worked at WUSC-FM as a news broadcaster. "I didn't work as much as I wanted to because of lack of time, but it was fantastic," Calloway said. In terms of her future in journalism, Calloway has some definite plans. "The plan for me, the big plan, is to own my own radio and TV station. I think that's the best way to get a smattering in all parts of journalism," Calloway said. Having taught baton and twirled for nine years competitively, Calloway is now a Coquette with the USC marching band. "I had never even heard of a Coquette until I came here. I decided to try out for the position, I liked it, and I'm doing it again this year," Calloway said. Calloway also participates in intramural sports and especially likes softball. | w^BBKS^ [ ^8a . - 1 hB^k K ? ? ,/v. :^?P: s?^r N. : Lashway Vicki Harrell !
