CECE VON KOLNITZ Asst. News Editor 0The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have chosen USC to be a part of a national study focused on the welfare of the smallest of human subjects. Children from birth to age three will be the focus of Project BEGIN, Bringing Early Growth McDermott and Development Into Neighborhoods, a research effort designed to improve the health and educational development of chil- dren born to mothers who have had fewer than*12 years f of education or who did not graduate from high school. The study is based on research that shows children born to mothers with less education are more at risk to have problems learning and developing.

Q x- ? ject, says Project BEGIN "reflects the view that health and education are absolutely intertwined." On Oct. 1, USC received initial funding from the CDC ? for the project. The university has the potential of receiv-J( ing $16.9 million from the contract with the CDC. How- h ever, funding for the program depends partly on federal money given to the CDC. o Marsha Torr, vice provost for research, says the study it is important for the state as a whole. *1 "We must play a leading role in those areas of research -S that most affect the competitiveness and quality of life of i* this state," Torr said. e< McDermott, site director for the project, said initial h planning has already begun. The study will involve two re groups of 72 children from Lexington, Richland and Aiken b counties. The Children's Center of USC will be a site for in a pilot program involving 32 children. The actual study will involve a comparison and ex- at perimental group. The parents of the experimental group r< will attend special parent group meetings, and children & in this group will attend early childhood development ri classes in classroom space borrowed from local churches and other organizations. gi McDermott said, "The partnerships that will be in-ul volved in this program will be throughout the university H and throughout the community." lii Participating organizations include the School of Medicine, the College of Education, the Institute for Families oi in Society, the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control and several hospitals and churches. zd T T^ _11 J fit. 1 JL>r. Liarry r auimier, uean ui uie otnuui ui ivicuicuic, said, "This project represents the best the university can be. It's an example of how different parts of the university can come together, work together and collaborate to be? successful." Eleanor Duff, education professor and faculty adviser 7 to the Children's Center, summed up a major goal of thef study. Duff said, "We know a lot about our children's devel-1" opment.
