Writing. Continued from page 1 students' writing itself. Ilccausc of the diversity of academic background of IJSC's students, instructors cannot assume any common background in English. "You must provide the background for students before saying anything about what you're teaching," Howard-Mill said. USC offers a variety ol ways to help students with writing problems, such as writing courses, workshops and the Writing Center. The Writing Center offers free one-on-one tutorials for anyone having problems with their writing. The center conducts between 1,()()() and 1,100 tutorials each semester. About 12 to 15 public workshops are offered each semester, also, with about 1,000 students and community residents attending. A unique feature USC now offers is the "writers' hotline," a nationally known call-in service to answer writing-related questions. The service has received thousands of calls from all across the nation, even though the number is not toll-free. "We get calls from the Library of Congress, state page 1 L5.

The lost day to atgovernments, even writers in California," Lynn said. IJSC's writing program has been cited by College i.nyjish as one of the best in the nation. The magazine is on of I he leading journals in the field of English, according to Lynn. Because of the national attention of the writing program, many universities arc using USC facilities to pattern their own programs, Lynn said, citing Greenville Technical College's proposed visit to gather tips lo start its own writing center. " The strength of the Writing Center is its staff," Lynn said. "liven though we've had to struggle the past couple of years to staff the freshmen English classes, we've still managed to have excellent instructors." New on the agenda for the Writing Center arc introductions to computer word processing, a workshop entitled "Writing Strategies and the Word Processor," and more public workshops. Although LJSC offers a large amount of help to students with writing difficulties, "basically if one wants to learn to write, one has to do a lot of writing," Howard-Mill said. well The senate passed another amendment to re- remove the proposed requirement that the pro- presidcntal and vice prcsidcntal candidates hide must run for office together. the "1 think it would put some candidates at a distinct disadvantage," Hogue said.
