But when the session opened
Tuesday, about 50 people in favor
of keeping the flag up crowded
onto part of the second floor of the
State House and waved a number
of banners and Confederate flags.
A middle ground proposal to
create a historical "Circle of Rags"
around the Capitol grounds and
remove the flag from the dome was
suggested by the Columbia
Historical Society this past week.
The flags would include the original
American flag, as well as the
Confederate battle and national
flags.
Meanwhile, Charleston legislators
are trying to find ways to balance
the loss of jobs and revenue
'from the closing of the Charleston
N&vhl Staffbh with the interests of
the state as a whole.
Sen. Glenn McConnell, RCharleston,
is sponsoring a bill to
declare Charleston, Dorchester and
Berkeley counties an Economic
Impact Zone, which would give
businesses tax credits and tax
reductions for moving into the area

"We also help them register
for classes. They are the
last students to get classes,
and it takes a lot of adjusting
when three out of four classes
are closed or are at one sectirvn
*'
Student orientation leaders
help out at all orientations.
SOLs are student leaders and
advisers for orientation. They also
help students figure out their
schedules.
"There were a lot of helpers
here," said Rudy Morales, a
freshman attending orientation.
"They helped me out. It makes it
a lot easier."
Scheduling is only one part of
the orientation day, though,
Greenlaw said.
"Mainly, we give an orientation
to the university, an orientation to
the college they are going to be in
and then we take them to the
Coliseum to pay fees, get their
IDs made and get their financial
aid taken care of," Greenlaw said.
The morning session of orientation
is an introduction and an
overview of the university as a
whole, Greenlaw said.
"They learn the basics of being
to offset the loss of the station in
1995. I
Charleston City Council took a I
step in that direction this past week
by passing a 1-cent food and hotel
tax to gain from the estimated 5
million tourists who visit the |
Charleston area annually.
The strangest bill coming before
the General Assembly this session
stems from the murder of James
Jordan. Michael Jordan's father.
Jordan's body was cremated before
it was identified.
Sen. Robert Ford, D-Charleston,
and Sen. Darrell Jackson, DCalhoun,
have proposed preserving
unidentified bodies for up to six
months after they are discovered.
' But many legislators said the bill
is a waste of their time and taxpayers'
money.
"We're having trouble building
enough prisons, and now we're trying
to build holding dikes for bod- g
ies; I don't think so," said Rep. (
Jennings McAbee, D-McCormick.

said. "Because the student population
is diverse in iige, ability
and background, we try to hit on
things they all need to be
involved in.
"We talk about fee payments,
TIPS, parking concerns and, for
traditional students, student organiations.
We also discuss the
Carolinian Creed and the Carolina
Community, the regulations and
things they need to know about."
The orientations held in
January for the spring semester
are almost identical to those held
for summer school and in August
for students admitted to the
University over the summer,
Greenlaw said. They are all different
from the summer orientations.

ents' orientation except in the
summer," Greenlaw said.
"Another is that we go into more
detail in the summer. These are a
little abreviated. The registration
process is also different. They
don't pay fees during summer orientation:
they are billed later.
Here, the students are involved in
fee payments.
"The time between going
through orientation and starting
classes is greater during the summer,
so we do more preplanning.
Here, the talk is about fee payments
and what they need to be
doing on a last-minute basis."
One thing that doesn't change
about orientatons is the role SOLs
play.
"That doesn't change,"
Greenlaw said. "The orientation

make for a smooth transition
to the university.
"They are very well-educated
about the university
and can answer any ques yy
tion. If they don't know die
answer, they know where to (
on go to get it. They are more
? up on current issues than
some 01 the staff at the university."
Helping new students adjust to
the university is one reason junior
Jamie Williams became a student
orientation leader.
"1 know it sounds corny, but 1
like helping these people."
Williams said. "People panic
because they can't get classes. 1
like helping them realize it's not
the worst tiling in the world."
Having a student leader made
the registration process better for
D'Angelo Edwards, the transfer
student from USC-Union.
"The SOLs were good,", he
said. "They could relate to our
stories and the procees that we
were going through."
The best part of the orientation
process for Edwards, though,
dealt with financial aid.
"Signing my loan cheek, that
was the easiest thing," he said.
