USC names busii From Staff Reports USC formally named its two business college towers for Springs Industries Chairman William Close and Liberty Corp. Chairman Francis Hipp Thursday. USC President James B. Holderman 1 announced at a reception and deciica- e? tion ceremony that the original eight- | story College of Business Administra- | tion building on College Street is now the H.W. Close Building. The adjacent twin structure, still under construction, is now the Francis M. Hipp Building. Together, the two buildings have about 310,(XX) square feet of floor space. CLOSE AND HIPP have played key roles in the development of the USC business school since 1967, when they helped create the USC Business Partnership Foundation, established in 1969. "The foundation has enabled the College of Business Administration to advance in a number of ways that would not be possible with state funding alone," said James Kane, dean of the college. "Just about every dimension of the college is influenced by the foundation," Kane said. "Hipp and Close have been leaders and catalysts in its development." o nrorlnato r\ f t V\c% Wharf An a 51 avuuuv wi ntv tt uuiiv/u School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, has since 1959 been head of Springs Industries Inc. in Fort Mill, a major textile producer.
