The Towers were built between 1958 and 1965, with Burney to be the first constructed. "It was supposed to save energy by blocking out the sun. It was a good idea at the time, but that was the '50s. It's the '90s now. I hear that people don't consider it attractive anymore." Students have complained of the concrete structure, which block in their balconies and views. "The cement things obstruct your view quite a bit," said junior Amber Ray, a resident of Bumey. "If s not veiy pleasant. I won't be sad to see Burney go." Although housing prefers to do repair work during the summer months, some must be done during the school year. Ware said the department is working closely with the contractor to ensure that the work will be done with as little inconvenience to the residents as possible. Workers will have to enter some residents' rooms, but students will be notified beforehand. The work schedule has also been designed with the students' needs in mind. Most work that requires entering student rooms will be done after 10 a.m., although repairs in public areas may be done earlier, with noise kept to a minimum. Mid-term and final exam scheduling will also be taken into consideration. Ware said students have been receptive of the work, and there has only been one complaint. In addition to the work being done on the Towers concrete veil structure, several other residence halls are undergoing improvement. Carolina Gardens will receive window replacements beginning Monday, as part of Phase II of this project. Sims' slate roof, which was the original roof when the building was built in 1939, is being replaced by a copper roof. The roof, prompted to be built by water leak age in the original, is scheduled to be completed by the end of November. I OOP! Specializing in Over-runs and Irregulars from yoi order catalogs.

ROOST continued from page 1 Although the Roost has not yet adopted the NCAA's ruling that residence halls can house no more than 50 percent athletes, 45 female athletes did move into the athletic dorm this year. The Roost has stepped up security for the female student athletes. Security has strict entrance policies and the females have a special elevator key to reach their floor. Despite some troubles with parents being hassled during moving in, the female athletes epjoy living in the Roost. "I love it. It is so nice compared to other residence halls," said freshman Bridgette Smith who swims for USC. Other swimmers reinforced Smith's statement. "I speak for my whole room, we love it (the Roost.) It gives the athletes an opportunity to meet each other," said sophomore Susie Stark. She said that athletes are able to get to know one another. Therefore, they can be more supportive in each others' competition. Also, with the Academic Center located in the building, female athletes can more easily access the computer lab and tutorial help. USC's NCAA compliance coordinator did not return phone calls. e Planet spirit alive with marches and campaigns. "We are sending a big message to people in Coness," Power said.
