Hawley said panhandlers were U very distressing to her and her customers, tl Campbell said panhandlers give a poor F impression to students, many of whom d; are guests to Columbia. h "We don't want our guests offended. s( When people are offended, they don't d] want to come back to an area," Campbell said. e< But how effective are the signs? h Columbia police Officer Thomas Meet- a) ze, who has been patrolling Five Points V for 15 years, does not think the signs st will prevent panhandling. C "I don't think the signs will help that Pi much. They (panhandlers) don't pay any ai attention to those signs," Meetze said, hi SERVICE continued from page 1 Holland, Penn., Osborne's cousin spoke th about his memories of Osborne. An ex- tk cerpt from the eulogy was read at the in memorial service. In the speech, Os- in home's cousin used the letters of Michael's rc name to describe him. ^ He hsted such things as how Michael -g cared for and fed his mom after she had ^ surgery, the time Michael fell asleep in ^ his mashed potatoes one Thanksgiving; and the love Michael felt for his family and friends. ot Michael's cousin ended the eulogy w by saying, a<L'is for the loss we all feel.

Kyzer, ccording to Hendrick who spoke to Kyzr's parents, also had a concussion and smporary memory loss of the events of tie accident. Kyzer was not wearing a helmet at le time of the accident.

Student Note Service is new to USC, ut its founders, Cerecedo and Rodney urco, University of Florida graduates, egan their business at the University f Georgia three years ago. They have ranched out this fall to USC and to lorida State University. At the University of Georgia, faculf have mixed emotions about the serice. "There are some faculty who not onr accept but encourage students to use ;. There are some who don't like it, nd some who are indifferent - they are le largest group," said Sam Davis, the ssociate vice president for Student Aflirs at the University Georgia. Cerecedo said some professors at Georgia supply and edit notes for his nainpaa in Affipns His business may not be that wel>me at FSU, however. "Anything that diminishes student iput is reprehensible," said Elisabeth luhlenfeld, FSU Dean of Undergradate Studies. "This kind of operation is gal. Since if s legal there's nothing the niversity can do about it. BUCKLE UP.T ted a' choo u we It's every you. to was bruised up some and sore, but he could have been killed," Weed said. Victim Witness Coordinator for the USC division of law enforcement and public safety, Calvin Gallman, warns people to be careful when driving around campus. "Watch out for the other guy, especially when travelling in a vehicle. Don't just drive for yourself, drive for the other guy ? with things being so congested you have to be especially careful, so use sense and caution," Gallman said. "Generally, it will be more abused than beneficial. If a student uses it as a support mechanism, then it might be all right But the vast majority will probably use it to get out of work. As far as I'm concerned, it's unethical." FSU also offers students workshops on how to take better notes. And she said FSlTs attendance policy, unlike USC's, is not universal. Each professor sets his or her own polity, therefore, she is concerned students will buy the notes instead of attending class. Some have wondered whether or not this service is legal. Does it break copyright laws? "Copyright only counts if if s fixed," said Marsha Baum, the director of USCs law library. "Unless it's fixed, for example, if lectures are taped, then there ! is no copyright violation. However, there may be federal or state statutes which question plagiarism or the right of a pro- [ fessor to his own product." Although there may be some ethical questions about the buying and selling of notes, Student Note Service is a legal enterprise. And, seeing as how the business is spreading in the Southeast, j it is a popular one with students. I rs THE LAW t is i i i a re. i i i re be: i I I I I I
