Workers in Columbia returned on this
day, but those in Washington were not
able to return until Jan. 10 due to the
blizzard on the East Coast.
This was the second of two furloughs
that have totaled'27 days off for nonessential
federal workers. Essential
workers Mho did have to go to work didn't
receive their paychecks.
The time off was because of the
inability of Congress and the White
House to decide on a budget. They still
have not come to a decision, but
emergency funds were allocated to bring
government employees back to work. If

the funds will run out, and there will be
another shutdown.
According to university spokeswoman
Debra Allen, the shutdown has not had
a large effect on university operations.
The only real effect has been on university
agencies that hand out federal money
to students.
Julie Harden, Director of the Office
of Veteran Affairs, said they have been
extremely concerned since the second
shutdown over whether checks to veterans
who are students at the university would
be delayed. They were not as concerned

SG raffles off

ROB UNDSEY Staff Writer
One lucky student doesn't need to
wony about parking this semester thanks
to last week's student government raffle.
The winner, Alexander Dial, was
drawn at random before the 9 p.m.
showing of "Dangerous Minds" Saturday
in the Russell House Theater.
Dial, who was not available for
comment, won a free parking space in
any on-campus garage: Pendleton,
Blossom, or Senate Street, for the rest
of the semester (a $160 value). The prize

"The raffle could've been better,
because we started so late last semester,
but I think that it was an overall success,"
said Dan D'Alberto, executive director
of SG and coordinator of the raffle.
Proceeds from the raffle will be
deposited into the endowment for the
new scholarship sponsored by SG and
MARATHON continued from page
sponsored in part by the USC School of
Medicine along with Wyeth-Ayerst
Laboratories and the Carolina Marathon.
Columbia was also the site of the
1995 USA Women's' National Marathon
Championship.

the Women's' Marathon Trials, expects

SG alumni.
SG has been working towards creating
this scholarship for two years. The idea
was first proposed and acted upon during
the term of former SG President Brian
Comer, and it continues to be a major
goal under the current term of SG
President AmyBigham.
For this new scholarship to be created,
an endowment of $25,000 must be
established in order to offer 10 tol5 book
scholarships per year. The scholarships
will be designed to attract students who
display strong leadership qualities.
"It is money that has been raised by
students," Bigham said. "We want to
give the money back to them as soon as
possible."
So far, through an alumni reunion
and alumni donations, SG has been able
to raise about half of the necessary
endowment. D'Alberto projects the
endowment will reach fruition in the
next two years.

exposure for the community and state.
"The Olympic Trials will have a
positive effect on the entire state, and
we're very excited to have landed this
opportunity," Mattox said.
"We can grow both economically and
in exposure to the outside world as a
top-notch place to live, work and compete,
in athletics as well as business."
