The Drinking age Students By AMY WISE Special assignments reporter The South Carolina legislature's decision to increase the drinking age will affect business and possibly hiring practices in restaurants, according to the president of the S.C. Restaurant Association. But restaurants will not escape the authority of the law, President Richard Wildman said. Restaurants most affected by the change are those that cater largely to those 18 to 20 years old and will therefore lose a substantial amount of money on beer and wine sales, he said. The other chance will be for restaurants that operate on a banking system, in which a waitress picks up the customer's bill, pays it and returns any change. The waitress using this system is considered a seller and must be 21 years of age if any ??????? I . ?* *** ? ?

"1 was deeply concerned that the lawsuit and continuing media attention had the potential of intruding into my classroom, and that my presence in South Carolina might be embarrassing to the university," she said. Sadat said she had been informed about the litigation concerning what she called her "private affairs," but she did not realize until Monday how much attention the lawsuit had received. "I did not realize until I returned to Columbia this past Monday and spoke with some of my friends and colleagues at the university to what extent this I I I , .

"At that point I decided with the greatest reluctance that it would be in the best interest of my students and the university not to teach at USC at this time." The statement was released Friday after Sadat and USC President James Holderman spoke to i each other on the phone. Sadat said that she was issuing the statement "at the request of my very close friend Jim Holderman."

The Associated Press quoted Holderman as saying Sadat did /lot give a reason for her decision. A USC resident adviser, however, said Holderman spoke to a meeting of hall advisers on Aug. 23, and told them Sadat was feeling the pressures of the lawsuit. The advisor asked to remain anonymous. "Basically Holderman told us that if the pressures continue on Sadat she will resign because a lot of things were happening in her life," she said. "Although we were requested to not pass this in formation on, 1 now feel that is lmporiani uecause uavmg nci here is at stake." "Why I said what I did is because of the importance she plays to the university," she said. "It is really important for students to realize what she is being pqt through because she is being made an issue. She did not want to be put through this." Sadat's decision came in the midst of a lawsuit against USC concerning her position at the university. In July, USC journalism senior Paul Perkins and his wife Cheryl filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the university after officials refused to reveal Sadat's salary.
