USC sparks c
By David Hill
Controversy over whether USC has
approved commission-designed admission
standards for state colleges and
universities arose yesterday at a
meeting of the stAte Commission on
Higher Education.
In a letter dated June 27, 1983, USC
President James Holderman told
Howard Boozer, CHE executive director,
that USC expects freshman applicants
to have completed the high
school curriculum recommended by
the commission.
CHE: Chairman Fred Sheheen said
he and the commission interpreted this
as acceptance of the commission's
standards. But USC Provost Frank

A candidate must have 50 percent of
the total vote plus one vote to be
declared a winner. The candidate with
the second highest vote total would be
in a runoff with the leader. Runoffs
are set for Wednesday.

Borkowski said the university had not
formally approved them.
THERE COULD be a problem if
USC did not adopt the requirements,
Sheheen said. Some other state institu
tions approved the requirements on the
condition that USC approve them, he
explained.
He said brochures including the
planned requirements, to be implemented
in 1988, will be printed
shortly and distributed to high school
students. If USC did not approve the
requirements, the brochure should not
be printed, he said.
"It seems to me we're going to have
runoff prol
early returns. "Obviously I'm real
pleased. All that f really wanted out of
today was to get in a runoff," he said,
adding he was certain a runoff would
be necessary because of the large
number of candidates. .

Lasch led the early returns with 206 4
votes. Oscar Prioleau followed closely
with 180, followed by Jim Lafemina
