If you find yourself with no
snare time and a camera in front
of your face when you're not in
classes or studying, then you have
something in common with
Michelle Cox and Janice Payne.
Cox and Payne are full-time
USC students ? and part-time
models.
JANICE PAYNE
Payne, 20, is an advertising/public
relations sophomore.
The Charleston resident said she
started modeling at 13.
It started as a desire to improve
myself, and it led to bigger
things. I started with a basic
modeling agency in Charleston
taking classes, and soon I was
teaching the classes," she said.

scholarship she uses to attend
USC, and a contract to model for
K-mart and Teen. She also wrote
an advice column for Teen, and
she was a spokeswoman for Kmart

Payne said she learned through
experience that modeling involves
business as much as pleasure
"I.ast semester. I did a lot ol
modeling and over-extendec

helps substantially in paying for
school, she feels she has gotten
more out of it than money and
prestige.
"I have really grown up a lot.
It's a rough business, but it has
helped me learn a lot about people
and how to deal with them."
School cuts in
Because of school, Cox is
limiting her modeling to parttime
local work. However, she
said even that keeps her very
busy.
"I model in Columbia for

J. B. White. I do a lot of fasion v
shows for department stores, and
I recently did a couple of com
mercials, one of them for Belk,"
she said.
Cox said she plans to get a
degree in advertising from USC,
then apply that to the world of
modeling.
