As the school year comes to a close, The Gamecock looks back
at those events that shaped your fall and spring semesters.This
year was characterized by a variety of events that brought local
and national attention to USC. Among the events were the controversy
surrounding the student radio station and the robbery of a local
bank that brought F.B.I. agents to the Horseshoe.USC also gained
media attention as the runners of the U.S. Women's Olympic
Marathon trials ran through the campus. Students helped Columbia
DreDare for the marathon and later showed their support for the
runners. Tragic events in Columbia left students shocked when a
local barber was shot to death. On the campus level, students
celebrated their own successes and failures over the year. Steve
Taneyhill ended his career as USCs quarterback with a disappointing
loss to Clemson. This year's student government election was
considered a 'clean race.'
