USC employ assault by t By RICH WALENDA Staff writer A female USC staff member was assaulted Wednesday afternoon while walking in the tunnel between the Law Center and Carolina Coliseum, University Police reports said. The staff member was approached by two men at 3:45 p.m. One of the men asked her for the time, police reports said. When she looked at her watch, she was grabbed from behind by the other man, who then lifted her dress and touched her underwear. One of the men is described as black, 5 feet 8 inches tall, about 140 to 150 pounds and wearing an orange football shirt, blue jeans and white shoes. No description is available on the second man. Bookstore c, customers for the bookstore. We looked at that issue from several points of view. One of the things we considered was continuity." He said the board members would serve six-year terms but because most students are not at the university for six years, the student representative will serve only a one-year term. "It would not be intelligent to change your organizational structure if you did not think it could benefit you," Denton said. "As an auxiliary enterprise, the benefit becomes the control of prices. If we buy a book, and the price goes up, obviously we've got to pass the increase along." But by cutting through the staterequired red tape, the bookstore management will be able to buy better products and control costs more effectively, keeping prices lower for students, he said.

Because the bookstore is a separate enterprise, no state or university assistance will be available. Like housing afid food service, the bookstore will exist on its revenue, Denton said.

' \ :| - //; V D Election Contir Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis did the right thing by conceding the election, Cousar said. It was a loss, but it was a loss with dignity, he said. "Dukakis had to concede," Cousar said. "He needed to win 18 big states to stand a chance, and he realized he was going to lose. Conceding was the only right thing to do." Young Democrats President Mar sha Hough was not totally displeased with the outcome of the elections. Although she was disappointed the Democrats hadn't won the presidency, she was pleased that so much of the state Congressional seats had gone to Democrats. She also said conceding was the only right choice for Dukakis. "He was behind, with the networks projecting him the loser, and the numbers were not in his favor," Franklin Cont "The association is designed to relay the concerns of USC students to the South Carolina Commission of Higher Education," Franklin said, adding that the association has been endorsed by USC President James Holderman, Commissioner of Higher Education Fred Sheheen and Lt. Gov. Nick Theodore. "We've done so much this year, and everything is almost completed," Franklin said. He said another of S.G.'s accomplishments was establishing a fall break for students to allow students to vote and participate in political campaigns. USC, in granting the break, followed in the footsteps of Clem son, the College of Charleston ana Winthrop College. Safety has been one of S.G.'s main concerns and led to the establishment of the campus's first safety commit( Amnesty. often denied food and restroom facilities and was sometimes injected with sufazin, a drug that induces fever and pain.

"He did it in a professional manner, and I have no problem with it." Dukakis lost the election because he did not answer the attacks made on him by Bush, Hough said. He also lost his 12-point lead during the Republican convention and was never able to regain it. "Americans need to get ready for hard times," she said. "The economy is going to take a dip." The Democrats will spend the next four years trying to find a viable national candidate for 1992, she said, adding that she does not think Dukakis will run again in 1992. "Now that he's elected, we need to accept George Bush and back him up and support him, Students for America President Janice Kraft said. Kraft led a campus campaign for Libertarian candidate Ron Paul. "I was at the coliseum when they inued from page 1 tee, Franklin said. "The committee will examine various possibilites for improving campus safety, such as shuttles to and from Five Points, increased lighting on campus and escort services," he said. He said he approved a Student Senate bill to allocate $9,078 to form a Safety Projects Contingency fund. These funds will be used in the formation of safety projects, such as the Five Points shuttle. S.G. has also been concerned about voter apathy on campus, he said. Marsha Hough, S.G.'s director of Resident Student Affairs, said she is pleased with the recent voter registra/Iwika 1 <irUi/>U 1 1 Afl rtiiclantr HUH U1IVC, ill WHICH 1 , 1 \J\J 31UUW1113 registered.

"Ron Paul did get some votes at all of the precincts, but the major reports didn't give the numbers for Ron Paul. That wasn't right." The Bush administration will be a little more liberal than the Reagan administration was, Kraft said. The economy will be on somewhat of a downturn, and inflation and interest will go up, she said. Alliance for Peace President Frank Timmons said he was disappointed with the outcome of the election. He did not feel .there was a real choice in the election. "I personally didn't support Dukakis, but I did support him over Bush," he said. "And I support them both over Ronald Reagan." The next four years will be a continuation of the last eight years, he said. He said, however, that the Bush But he said a lot of work still needs to be done to get some programs, such as the proposed textbook exchange service, off the ground. A textbook exchange being proposed by S.G. would offer students more money when reselling their books, he said. The parking problem also is high on the agenda, Franklin said. He said he has heard many suggestions to alleviate the parking problem. "People have proposed that Greene Street be closed permanently, the pond in front of the library-be paved over and used as a parking lot, the time on parking meters be reduced and that the university build a new parking garage. "l don't support any 01 tnese plans wholeheartedly. A plan such as the construction of a new parking garage involves capital expenditures. Part of our tuition already goes to the payback of bonds and loans letters from 300 people in the United States to the government of Peru.

"Bush has been in national politics longer than Reagan was before he was elected," he said. "That makes him a little more realistic." Student Government President James Franklin said he was not" surprised with the outcome. "I don't think anyone was," he said. "I'm a little upset that the media f~ didn't allow the candidates to Bet to ^ the issues," he said. Franklin said he voted for Dukakis. "He is an intelligent, smart person," Franklin said.

"We conducted a 'Tellus' survey last year, and students said thaf-jhey wanted cable televsion," he said. "We looked into it and discovered that it was not possible and would have caused an increase in tuition, which we are trying presently, to reduce."
