"I know that I'll get a call at some point, saying that someone sitting next to me at the show had shoes with no socks on," he said. "And I'll gladly answer, 'Isn't that great that people, especially our students, feel so comfortable in this great new place?"' It is important all USC students know they have a home at the Koger Center, whether they have on jeans or a suit, said Bruce Littlefield, a broadcast journalism and theatre and speech senior.

( > TAKEN 10-12:00 1:00-5:1 | Rural mc at USC c By ERIC WARD Staff writer The days when rural teachers were cut off from their urban counterparts are ending, but in South Carolina the p problem still exists. | The linking of urban and rural humanities teachers in the state bv I the Rural Education Alliance for Collaborative Humanities is aimed at narrowing the gap. The group feels they are beginning a new chapter in education in South Carolina with its first conference, which was held last Sunday and Monday at USC. The conference, sponsored by USC's College of Humanities and Social Sciences, brought together high school and college teachers to see how USC can help promote humanities education in rural school districts. The conference consisted of eight 15-minute sessions on Monday in which 15 USC faculty members demonstrated projects they have available to REACH. REACH also told teachers how they could get help from USC in areas they are interested in. REACH was formed last fall, not only to emphasize and upgrade ? humanities studies in rural schools, but also to encourage collaboration between colleges and high schools. Because many rural teachers work in isolation, they are often unable to interact regularly with other teachers and schools, REACH Director Jack Blodgett said. ^ imr.) j. , . r we re irying to create a sense or community," he said. ^ By holding REACH conferences at least annually, rural schools and ' teachers are more directly tied into t the urban education setting that is ,' often ahead of its rural counterpart, said F. A. Hilenski, conference coordinator. y USC's mandate as one of the e state's leading liberal arts and education colleges is one reason why the ' conference was held at USC, Hilenski said. ? "Many elementary education and humanities majors come here," he ] said. Another reason USC was host to 1 the conference was to get USC, an urban school, more involved in s REACH, a rural network, he said.

REACH depends on collaboration. Each participating school makes resources available for humanities instruction, creating a pool of projects and ideas from which instructors and schools seeking assistance in humanities teaching can choose. Participating members can access resources for humanities teaching at REACH conferences and through the Clemson University Forestry and Agriculture Network, or CUFAN, where the program is centered, Blodgett said. CUFAN consists of extension offices of Clemson's Agriculture department. With at least one office in every county of the state, REACH participants can access Clemson's mainframe computer by dialing into their local offices using modems that allow computer interaction through phone lines. Once accessing the mainframe computer, participants can survey the pool of resources and projects made available to them by other schools and teachers for humanities instruction. Teachers can share projects and ideas by communicating KrAllrtVl />! "*"? uuv/u^ii vv/iiipuitis, eliminating geographical barriers to interaction. Participating schools can also submit proposals to REACH for $3,000 to $7,000 grants to support their efforts at developing curricula for humanities teaching, said Hilenski, who is also assistant dean for grants and development at USC's humanities college. REACH can approve the proposals with support from its $600,000 grant that kicked off the program last fall. The grant will carry the program until the fall of 1990, Hilenski said. REACH will seek additional funds from the National Endowment for Humanities to continue the program, said Kenneth Autrey, director of Computers and Writing center. Autrey is working with a team to generate future grant money for REACH. Organizers hope other foundations will notice REACH, Blodgett said.
