before the gift arrives on the scene," said
James Rex, vice president for University
Advancement.
Once the gifts are given and the money
has been received, Rex explained that
everyone from the faculty to the students
benefit. According to Rex, things
such as computer labs and faculty workshops
exist because of private support.

GREG RtCKABAUGH Staff Writer ]
Student Government President
Brian Comer outlined his accom- '
plishments and goals for the coming
year during his address to the Student
Senate Wednesday in the Russell
House Theater.
Comer said a bulletin board could
be a way to establish a book exchange
system to help students reduce their
textbook costs. He also offered the possibility
of hooking a book exchange
program into the USC computer system.
"(We could) get a bulletin board on
the backbone of the university system
so you could go to a terminal across
campus and type in what you want to
sell or buy and it would show up across campus,"
Comer said, adding they are
still looking into it.
Also, because of the success of closing
Devine Street between the science
building and the Towers, student government
is working on closing a portion
of College Street between the new
music building and the Plaza parking

Rex said that, compared with
other southeastern public institute
USC falls below average in the fund i
ing department.
"The university historically has
spent a lot of money on fund raising,
don't have a lot of people involve)
fund raising," Rex explained. To fix 1
problem, the university is calling u
the faculty, students, and alumni to
come involved with private fund r

Comer's hope to get a voting student
member on the board of trustees
ran into a few problems that make
him hesitant in pursuing the issue,
be said.
Comer said he was pushed by the
branch campuses to rotate the potential
student representation on the
board.
"I personally don't feel comfortable
with someone from USC-Beaufort or
USC-Salkehatchie representing the
entire system on the board of trustees,"
Comer said.
About 75 percent of the system
runas come to uou-^oiumDia, wnne
more than half of the students attend
this campus, Comer said.
Also, the state legislature would
have to change the makeup of the
board in order to get a student voting
member, and Comer said he received
an indication from incumbents thai
higher education issues would not b?
examined until the restructuring issues
in the state were resolved.

"Many a time in the middle of the night,
my beeper will go off. Sometimes they want
to talk to you, sometimes they don't," she
said. "It is the victim's right to have an advocate
in there [the hospital room] in case
questions get too tough. The job of an advocate
is to assure that judgment is not
passed on the victim. The victims need to
know it's not their fault."
Dougherty said she sits with survivors
as they are interviewed by police, investigators
and the doctor. Some police want to
talk to the survivor alone, she said. (
"If s really hard, standing outside the '
room, hearing the questioning and knowing
how they twist the questions," she said.
Dougherty said the calls are hard on
the volunteers emotionally.
"They provide emotional support and
information so survivors can make informed
decisions," Jordan said.
"A lot think it is their fault," Dougherty
said. "You always hope for the best, wanting
it to go to trial. I hope more girls, especially
freshmen, will think about this.
