"ACT USC deals with the networking of programs between organizations that do community service," said Mary Roderick, an intern in the Office of Community Service Programs. Delta Delta Delta sorority, which is involved in A Community Together, is one of 17 campus organizations that perform service projects in the area. "We have worked with Carolina Cares on collecting cans for Harvest Hope," sorority President Melissa Kinsey said. "We have also done AdoptA-Highway, Special Olympics, City Year Serv-A-Thon and Easter baskets for the children at Richland Memorial Hospital." "We work more on an individual basis than a group basis," said Shannon Barnes, president of Psi Chi Honor Society. "The Office of Community Services presented different services and told us how to go about getting names and the places to go."

The activities the girls participated in included disassembling small appliances to learn how they work, a trip to the State Museum where they, learned how electricity is made and a trip to the Gibbes Planetarium to learn about constellations and the solar system. "We took small appliances such a$ a can opener, a hand mixer and a radio apart to see how they operate," SWE member Rhett Culclasure said"We spent a day with the girls on the computers to help them develop computer skills as well." The girls also learned about women's history. "They studied the history of famous women and their contributions to science," Culclasure said. Aiken Electric COOP sponsored the project. ordinates 5 projects around university events and co-programming. "We have not had much co-programming because most organizations have already set their calenders," Roderick said. Co-programming is important when it comes to available funds. "We did a haunted house along with another fraternity as a major fund-raiser for the Children's Cancer Association," Kinsey said. "Human and monetary resources are limited," Roderick said. "We need to find a way to save money and still reach the community." Roderick's short-term goal is to foster more communication and collaboration between USC service organizations. Her long-term goal is to encourage organizations to evaluate the impact of involvement on the Columbia community. "If four student organizations do fund-raisers for one agency, I would encourage them to jointly discuss their efforts and decide if some resources could be directed to another agency of the same type," she said. ACT USC will meet from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. April 27. The location will be announced. rd recipients s mmm jaa up , ? Mm .MMf. V,?< | Lupe Eyde/The Gamecock Bernard Friedman Adviser of the Year.
