Along with signing up for classes, some
USC students might have to decide which insurance
company to sign with for coverage.
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.

"I'm not really sure how many companies
will be there. It would be ideal if there 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.

insurance through their parents. 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
