SC RECEPTK who has part of the USCColumbia campus in her district, said alternatives need to be looked at to find money for higher education.

"That would give the states an additional source of revenue and could really help high education." The next economic forecast for NEWTON basketball program) could have been monitored in a better way.

"If I have to leave class early to see it, I will," political science sophomore Wendy Powell said. "I plan on taping it to watch again later with my roommate." Some students do not plan to watch Clinton become the 42nd president of the United States. "I refuse to watch the event and do not support Clinton whatsoever," political science senior Stephanie Jackson said. "I worked in Washington for Bush, and the only positive thing I see in the inauguration is that it effectively represents what Clinton stands for." International studies senior Amy Loeffler, who is from Washington, D.C., said, "I am sick of reading articles about the Arkansas staff complaining about moving to D.C., and the inauguration has been so over-hyped." Clinton will give his inaugural address at 12:05 p.m., and those who have been waiting for the return of a Democratic president are anticipating a successful speech. VICTIMS According to Burns, the power has failed and been reset by hall staff on three other occasions this academic year. McMahon said, "You're not always sure of the cause (of the power failure), but you try to investigate as best you can." USC Risk Manager Shealy McCoy, who handles USC insurance issues, told a small group of students Monday evening that the personal damages they suffered are not covered by any USC insurance policy. "That's what I died to describe to them, and they didn't want to hear that," Shealy said. Burns said the group of students were insulted when McCoy attempted to hide a small laugh directed at the reaction of the students. She says the students became enraged and ordered him to leave. was proud of those students for I1I^:S3?k? NHBMHI^MEllPs j( Date: Januai Time: 10:00 Place: USC >n competes ^ Bill Clinton b II !

"I did not vote for Clinton, and I do not agree with his viewpoints, but I have to support him because he will be the next president, and I from page 1 standing up for themselves," Burns said. McCoy said, "I was not meaning to snicker. I have a nervous habit and so many people were firing on me. I get nervous, and I cracked a little bit. I know it was inappropriate, but I meant no disrespect to their situation." Burns said the refrigerators rented to students by housing cannot be plugged directly into the wall sockets in Columbia Hall because the cords are too short. As a result, many students are forced to place the appliances on their desks or purchase either power strips or surge protectors similar to the one which caught fire, she said. "The university should rent refrigerators with cords that will be long enough, rather than leaving it up to the students to buy extension cords," Burns said. 3?TE? nr OH 0 1 OO .y ^ i uc am-4:00pm D Bookstore i with class lecomes the 42nd president at noon ; 10 a.m. "Jff : Gores and Qintons meet the 1 1 /A 1 < .1 *?Tt . nes ana ^mayies at me wnite House.

Whether or not many students plan on watching the event, many say comments and excitement are sure to follow Clinton in 1993. Anderson said, "Students need to know the difference between unsafe power bars and circuit breakers. The circuit breakers are fine as long as they do not create an 'octopus effect' by plugging too many things in." Housing services Tuesday afternoon offered a room in USC's NADA apartments for the four women from suite 720, Burns said. "I think there is real value in keeping them together," McMahon said. "We are in the process of reviewing the installation of sprinkler systems in the dorms, but the cost of such is very, very high. We might also have to close down whole buildings to put them in," McMahon said. A sprinkler system would have significantly reduced the amount of fire damage, Anderson said Sunday. < eposit: $30.00 Payment Plans Available SE ii
