Scholarship money generated by USC has
increased steadily during the past five years as
federal grants to students have decreased, according
to USC's financial aid director.
Students received $456,000 in scholarships

had increased to $1.2 million by 1984-85,
John Bannister said.
"There has been about a $200,000 to
$300,000 increase in scholarship money yearly
since 1981," he said. "Federal funding has remained
static. There are no real increases in
federal money we can award students, and
there don't appear to be any increases in the
future."
The Reagan administration's stricter
eligibility requirements for federal Pell Grants
have forced students to shift to Guaranteed
Student Loans, Bannister said.
Grants, which don't have to be repaid, have
decreased from $4.6 million in 1980-81 to S3.9
i milliori'in' f984-85, but the decrease was only
$60,06^frdln tMe previous year.
In contrast, Guaranteed Student Loans,

$4 million increase from the previous year.
Bannister attributued the gains in scholarship
money to USC President James Holderman,
citing the Summit Fund and other fundraising
activities.
"The fact that scholarships have increased
is a sign of our own work," Bannister said.
"The $5 from each ticket sold for the
Carolina-Clemson football game will mean an
extra $300,000 we will have every other year
for scholarships.
"Most people arc willing to provide support,
because not many would argue with the
goal of providing scholarship money to attract
and keep top-quality students at USC."
Although a tuition increase took effect this
fall, the number of financial aid applications
has remained at about 12,000 to 15,000,
which is average for the past four or five
years, Bannister said.
"We did get about 400 to 500 calls a day
when the increase was announced last spring,"
he said.
Bannister said he is a member of a task
force appointed by Holderman to evaluate
tuition increases and, if concluding that in

to student aid
creases are necessary, plan them so that
students can prepare for them and understand
them.
"The last thing we want to do is increase
tuition," he said, "but if we don't get the
money from the state Legislature, we have to
make increases to keep up with our needs."
About 45 percent of USC students receive
some type of financial aid, whether it be from
a loan, grant, campus work study, USC
scholarship or private scholarship from an
organization not associated with USC, according
to Bannister.
Students hurt most by stiffer federal regulations
and tuition increases are members of
middle-income families, according to
Bannister.
"The programs are in place for the needy,
and the wealthy will send their kids to college
anyway," he said. "Those families within the
$30,000 to $50,000 income range are hardest
hit.
"People say a family that has a $30,000 to
$50,000 income can afford to send a child to
college. That may be so, but if the parents
have two or three other youngsters, they may
not be able to afford it."
