USC students develop new vehicle
USC engineering students, under the instruction of professor Donald
Keating, have developed a special vehicle for handicapped people that is
more cost-effective than other such devices.
The three-wheeled vehicle is a modification of the already existing
model, which often runs as high as $2,500. By changing the overall design,
the students were able to design a vehicle that can be manufactured entirely
in South Carolina.
"It's a total systems approach," Keating said, "using overall design
cnange 10 reduce rne cosi 01 integral components.'
He said there are only a few "bugs" left in the project, and that the
design should be complete and ready for a manufacturer in another six to
12 months.
New scholarship offered for blacks
A scholarship program for black law students at USC is the result of
cooperation between Colonial Life and Accident Insurance Company and
the South Carolina National Charitable and Educational Foundation.
Colonial Life has committed $15,000 to the program over the next four
years, funding a full-tuition scholarship and books for a well-qualified
black student attending the USC School of Law.
The SCN Foundation, a subsidiary of South Carolina National Bank,
will contribute $8,750 over a five-year period for a partial tuition scholarship
plus expenses for books.
The gifts are the first corporate sponsorships for the law school's
minority scholarship program, established in the fall of 1988.
USC student gets Goldberg scholarship
Third-year law student Blaney A. Coskrey has been awarded USC's
I. M. Goldberg Law Scholarship.
I. M. Goldberg attended the USC School of Law from 1954-56 and was
a distinguished Charleston County attorney until his death in 1979.
The scholarship was established by his family, friends and colleagues,
and provides $500 to a deserving law student who has achieved academic
success.
Science professors bound for California
Three USC professors will travel to California later this month to take
part in a meeting of one of the nation's most prestigious science
organizations.
/vrunropoiogy proressor ivan neiuer, geoiogy proiessor jonn carpenter
and Donald Jordan of the College of Applied Professional Sciences will be
panelists at the 155th annual meeting of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science Jan. 14-19 in San Francisco.
The AAAS annual meeting has traditionally served as a way for researchers
and educators from all fields of science and technology to exchange
research and learn about new developments in their fields.
Cadets raise money for charity
USC's Army Reserved Officers' Training Corps raised more than $600
to buy Christmas gifts for Columbia area children whose parents are in
prison.
The effort was part of this year's "Project Angel Tree," a prison
fellowship program.
"We're pleased with the results of this year's fund raising," said Sgt.
Maj. Charles Marshall Jr. "We believe the project gave our cadets a
greater understanding of what being an officer involves."
ROTC members plan to participate in a similar project next year, Marshall
said.

The Associated Press
The Liberty Bowl might lose money for the first
time since the postseason game moved to Memphis
in 1965, said A. F. "Bud" Dudley, the game's
founder and executive director.
Liberty Bowl officials are considering moving
the bowl from the middle of the week to a Friday
or Saturday and switching kickoff from night to
day as a way to increase revenues, Dudley said.
Although final money figures aren't in from the
Dec. 28 game between Indiana and South
Carolina, Dudley told The Commercial Appeal
newspaper the loss could be as much as $50,000.

nounced as 39,210, the second smallest crowd since
the game has been played in Memphis and the
lowest since the 1967 North Carolina State ?
Georgia game drew 35,054 fans.
Dudley, who said the overall financial health of
the bowl is excellent, said he and other top bowl officials
will meet in about a week to discuss possible
changes.
A switch in dates would require approval by the
NCAA Extra Events Committee and could affect
the Liberty Bowl's relationship with Raycom Inc.,
a cable syndicator that pays about $1 million a year
for the game's television rights.
More fans might be able to attend the game if it

competition with other bowls must be considered
in weighing a change in the Liberty Bowl's date.
"Television is one of our paramount concerns,"
Dudley said. "For example, if we go to a Friday or
Saturday and face competition on ABC and NBC,
_then we lose all of Raycom's affiliates in those
areas that have to honor network commitments.
"This year we were unopposed, and that's a big
advantage for Raycom in selling advertisement,"
he said.
