Tuesday, Brewer outlined a history
of problems with the station leading
up to the shutdown in December.
There were some racial innuendos
and epithets that I personally find
offensive that were broadcast over the

related to belligerent behavior and a
lack of general respect for other

organizations who have submitted
budgets were represented at the hearings, ac
hoping to receive a portion of the $85,000 jj;
in student activity fees, which the co
committee is responsible for distributing, q.
The total request of the 71 organizations q,
totaled about $240,000. This means ^
the groups are asking for about $155,000
more than is available.
Several organizations, including ^
Carolina Cares, Geology Club, Women ^
Students' Association, Carolina Debate .
and various community service 0
organizations were referred by the
committee to other USC organizations
and offices for possible co-programming
and financial assistance. ^
Carolina Debate has the largest ^
budget request of $32,000, which includes ^
mostly travel expenses and some
supplies. During the hearings, the ^
committee suggested the debate team
go to USC's Athletics Department for tc
supplementary funds. P1
Athletics Department Director Mike 8<

Some students have been paying a

packets required in certain classes.
Course packets are copies of published f
material that professors choose to use '
as a supplement to their course. These ?
copies often include articles and individual
chapters from books that are copyrighted
In compliance with the law, publishers
such as Universal Copies and Custom
Academic Publishing Company (CAPCO) v
must pay copyright fees (royalties) to f
the original publisher.
In addition to the copyright fees, the

According to Berube, former Provost
imes Moeser had agreed to help
irolina Debate with funding for the
ixt four years. However, Moeser has
cepted the position of chancellor at
e University of Nebraska, leaving the
bate team to search for other avenues
financial assistance.
Carolina Cares, which provides
iliday service events and local outreach
tivities, also was referred to other
SC groups. The committee expressed
ncern over the large deficit Carolina
ares has accumulated, and suggested
arolina Productions as an alternative
individual programming.
Julye Johns, Carolina Productions
esident, said she is "very responsive"
the committee's reference to CP, and
e organization "loves being approached
r co-programming."
However, the Women Students'
ssociation, when being referred to
arolina Productions by the committee,
dd they had already attempted to use
arolina Productions resources, but
le cooperative effort did not work out.
Also, some USC outdoor groups, such
3 the Geology Club, were encouraged
i combine their equipment and projects
> avoid spending funds for similar
rejects and events. Many community
