al rewards," said Ware, commenting on the concrete veils.
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.

NCAA HOUSING RULES
The 1994 NCAA Convention revised the
following regulation, effective August 1,
1996:
During the academic year, the institution
may not house student-athletes in
athletics dormitories or athletics blocks
within institutional or privately owned
dormitories or apartment buildings {when
the institution arranges for the housing)
on those days when institutional
dormitories are open to the general
student body.
Athletics Dormitories. Athletics dormitories
are defined by NCAA as institutional
dormitories in which at least 50 percent
of the residents are student-athletes.
Athletics Blocks. Athletics blocks are
defined by NCAA as individual blocks,
wings or floors within institutional
dormitories or privately owned
dormitories or apartment buildings in
which at least 50 percent of the residents
are student-athletes.

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.

"We are sending a big message to people in Coness,"
Power said. This message is intended to
lake them accountable for rolling back the envinmental
progress over the last 25 years."
The Sierra Student Coalition is a branch orgazation
of the Sierra Club, the oldest environsntal
organization in the country. The Coalition
s approximately 40,000 members nationwide.
The Coalition has joined with SAGE and other
ident organizations to help bring their message
the Carolina Community. One of their current
jjects is to have President Clinton stop in at USC
his campaign trail.
The Sierra Student Coalition will have a meet\
at 7 p.m. Sept. 25 in Russell House room 315.
