Because of procurement difficulties, USC will not,sponsor one insurance company for students to select Instead there may be more I than three insurance companies at registration, Dennis Pruitt, Vice President of Student Affairs, said. t 1 "I'm not really sure how many companies will be there. It would be ideal if there were ! three or more insurance companies were available," Pruitt said.

Pruitt said a number of companies have called the university inquiring into statistics of students. Pruitt was not sure if fees would increase. "It would be up to the individual vendors as to what fee they would charge. If they want to become competitve with each other, that's up to them. Right now, though, it's hard to speculate," he said. Pruitt did say students would need to be more knowledgeable about the different companies.

On the other hand, a larger portion of independent undergraduates and graduate students do not have a policy through their parents. Pruitt's office is planning different vehicles to educate students in deciding which insurance company would be best for them. USC was negotiating for an insurance plan that would include acute illnesses. Pruitt said uie eunem pian was leaning muic luwarus accidents. Pruitt was confident there would be a single insurance plan for USC students by the 1992-93 school year. "There should be an insurance plan in place by then.

Pruitt also said students should not worry about separate plans and coverage at Thornson Health Center. ^H| "These are two separate areas of interest.

Pruitt also clarified that USC does not subsidize the insurance policies. ^ f "A lot of people have thought USC has ,;ar v subsidized these policies in the past because of the low costs.
