"The European governments have sup ported the whole concept from the outset, \-;i said Bruce Marshall, who teaches a course on Western Europe. The idea for the West European-based , OP missiles came from the West Germans, Marj|| shall said, and the deployment has been supSi' ported by Great Britain, Denmark and Italy. ALSO,"THE French have been vigorously supporting the plan," he said. Cruise and Pershing II missiles are being K9 sent to Western Europe to counter the Soviet j\SL deployment of SS-20s in the 1970s. NATO ||f contends the SS-20s give the USSR a more 11 than l,000-to-0 advantage in nuclear warheads in Europe. This figure does not in nay pay fo tion, to be effective the spring 1984 semester. The package is designed to meet the univer buy j> lung icuii cumpuici nccui, nuiucnuau said. FUNDING FOR this package is to be discussed with the South Carolina legislature at a later time. Until then, a basic refundable fee will be charged to USC students registered in the colleges of Business Administration, Engineering and Science and Mathematics. Full-time and graduate students will pay a $50 flat fee and part-time students will pay $5 per credit hour up to 7 credit hours.

One reason the deployment of the Cruise and Pershing II missiles worries the Soviet Union is those missiles can strike the USSR, while the SS-20s cannot strike the United States. Because of strong support from the West European governments, Marshall said he doesn't see the deployment hurting relations between the United States and Western Europe. WHAT WOULD hurt relations, Marshall said, is if the United States decided not to .1 i .1 ?:i ait ...... i ,1 u? ucpiuy ilie 11 wuuiu uc nuti |;mcu as a kind of sellout," he said. "It would be widely viewed as caving in or as a loss of nerve." Marshall said the West Europeans rejected an option to base the missiles in submarines and surplus merchant ships because the missies could then be removed from Europe easier. ' "They (the West Europeans) wanted tc respond to the Soviet installation of missita ir use of co fees will be applied to each semester until sufficient state funds are provided. This resolution is the result of a two-vear study on the student access to terminals problem, according to System Vice President for Computer Affairs Robert Roberson. At USC there is only one terminal available for every 400 students. The need for more terminals 44 has become selfevident," Roberson said. THE RESOLUTION was passed after the deans of the colleges of Business Administration, Science and Mathematics and Engineering presented their cases. These three colleges are the most dependent on USC's com^ W 1 Humpl Photo by Mary An* Ho*! affairs and pre some 30 candi notch individu< urday. Carolina has lost the "It is a tes complishments ment controven news analysis in Eastern Europe," Marshall said. "The assumption is that this (missiles in Western Europe) would equalize the deterence on both sides. "Whether that is the way it would work, nobody knows," he said. DETERENCE IS the theory that states neither side would attack the other because a first strike would be retaliated. What seems sure, Marshall said, is the new missiles will put the Soviet Union in a bind. "The Soviet Union has already said they're going to increase the number of missiles (in Eastern Europe). "I don't think the Soviets are anrtious for a military showdown," such as reimposing a blockade on West Berlin, Marshall said, : But more Soviet missiles do not directly solve the problem of the Cruise and Pershing II missiles. "There isn't any way they can > directly neutralize the Pershing II missiles, i Just deploying more SS-20s does not answer mputers puter resources. Dean James Durig of the College of Science and Mathematics said the problem had become so bad they had to stop accep tance into the college until assessment could be made of the facilities. Dean David Waugh of the College of Engineering said the use of punch cards, which the students ?re taught to use, are not required by any employers. He said of the resolution "it's not just something that will be nice to have, but something that is necessary." The resolution was passed unanimously on a voice vote. iries named dean C medical school irts id time in four davs, USC named an internal position for which a nationwide search was iumphries was named dean of the School of / during a meeting of the medical affairs com>ard of trustees. )f the USC medical school since March, Humrnationally-known specialist in cardiovascular as been on the USC faculty since 1979 as chairartment of medicine. s been the O.B.

There would still be X number of missiles that can reach the Soviet Union in about 10 minutes. "THEY (MORE SS-20s) don't really end the problem. For us, a few more SS-20s will not change the situation." One possible Soviet response to the situa tion, Marshall said, couia ne expanded research on particle beams and other exotic weapons. Another possible response would be to stir up trouble in some other part of the world forcing the United States to take troops away from Europe. "Possibilities for response become numerous," Marshall said. The Soviets have threatened to walk out on the arms talks in Geneva, Switzerland, if the missiles are deployed.
