The Goldwater Foundation has
awarded 285 scholarships for the 199596
academic year to undergraduate
sophomores and juniors across the
country, including two USC students.
The foundation, established for Sen.
Barry M. Goldwater was designed to
foster and encourage students to pursue
careers in the fields of math, natural
sciences and engineering.
Scholars are selected on the basis
of academic merit from over 1,300 math,
science, and engineering applicants.
Robyn Kelly and Jennifer Wu were
USC's recipients this year. Kelly is a
sophomore geology major, and Wu is
a junior chemical engineering major.
Both students are in the Honors College.
"We are extremely pleased that USC
has two Goldwater scholars in the 1995
competition. This speaks well for both
Robyn Kelly and Jenny Wu, as well as
for the institution," said Novella Beskid,
coordinator of Fellowships and SumBarnes

CLEMSON (AP) ? Clemson University,
a state school looking to privatize
many of its support services, said it will
turn over operation of the campus bookstore
to Barnes & Noble Bookstores Inc.
in a deal worth more than $3 million.
The New York-based bookseller will
take over the operations by May 1.
Barnes & Noble was selected by a
campus committee from proposals made
by three companies. Interim President
Phil Prince approved the recommendation,
and it has been approved by the
state Materials Management Office, the
school said Wednesday.
The company agreed to pay Clemson
almost $3.2 million during the first
five years of operation, or 10.6 percent
of gross sales, whichever is greater.
Barnes and Noble also agreed to:

Thirty-seven scholars are math 7^

"The Goldwater is a competitive,

as well as demonstrated in- gtg
terest in and commitment to a career ,
in mathematics, the natural sciences
or an eligible engineering discipline,"
Beskid said. -a
The scholarship provides a one and QV?

the cost of tuition, fees, books and room ^
