"Treasures of Carolina," on display through early November, features some of the most notable items in USC's rare book and special collections. In addition to the King James Bible and Whitman and Audubon treasures, the exhibit features a number of illuminated medieval manuscripts, a 16th century map of the Carolina coast, John Eliot's Indian Bible, the first publication of Lincoln's Gettysburg address, a letter by Emily Dickinson, Commander Perry's report on Japan and a color panorama of the Rockies from a government railroad survey of the the 1850s. "The university has been collecting books for its library since at least 1804, before there were students or even faculty," said Dr. Patrick Scott, associate university librarian for special collection.

"The exhibit shows the richness and quality of the library's early holdings, in triDure to many donors, scnoiars ana book lovers who have fostered its growth," Scott said. "It is our hope that it will encourage the public to explore future exhibits of our collections." Students have enjoyed the exhibit and think it is good for the university. "The exhibit was really good and interesting," freshman Nancy Scott said. "The exhibit shows how many books the library has and how diverse the collection is." Other students have been particularly in awe to see things they would not normally get to see. "It was wonderful to see a copy of the King James Bible, as well as publications of books I had never seen," freshman Stacey Ostrowski said.

Moise was driving back from the beach in Elizabethtown, N.C. The accident is under investigation, and the driver of the other car is still in the hospital recovering. Moise's funeral service was held Aug. 5 at the Temple Sinai in Sumter. Because so many family members and friends attended, the fellowship hall had to be opened, seating an additional 150 people. "The Methodist preacher who spoke on behalf of Cile really captured her energetic and positive personality at the service," Rhonda Cawthorne, a friend of Moise, said. "He remembered dancing at a party with her in which she commented on how great he could shag for a methodist preacher." "Everyone who was around Moise was touched in some way.

She didn't walk through life, she danced," said Elizabeth Smith, a friend of Moise's. "Everyone was so shocked by the news. She was so enormously and intensely alive that no one believed she could be dead," Lee Davinroy, a friend of Moise, said. Moise grew up with her parents in Sumter where she took an interest in education. She married a farmer and raised two children, Nina and Dever, in Oranffebur?. Not onlv did she heh) out on the farm, but she also began teaching middle and high school students in the Orangeburg District. In the late 70s and early 80s, she furthered her education at USC and gained her master's. It was a few years ago when she began assisting with Freshman English 101 and 102.

Last year, Moise's hard work and effort was honored with the Elliott Award, the English department's most prestigious award. In honor of her memory, there are two awards being set up in her name. The Cile Moise Passion Teaching Award is a student-nominated award given to a graduate student exhibiting the most passion and creativity for teaching English 101 and 102. There is also the Cile Moise Writing as Teaching plaque, which will be given to a person who produces the best piece of scholarly writing regarded as a teaching and learning tool. To honor Moise's memory even more, she left a list of her three favorite charities in Columbia to which donations could go.

"Cile was always giving, even when she barely got by herself. It wasn't until after she died that we found out she was donating money to a needy family," Smith said. "Cile was one of the most caring and full-of-life individuals here in the English department. Her students and professors will both remember her well," said Marc Minkser, a friend of ' Moise. Before Moise died, her aspirations were to finish her Ph.D., work full-time af USC and turn 50 with enthusiasm. "I'm turning 50, and it just keeps getting better," Moise said in a telephone conversation with Cawthorne. The tragedy about the event is that this wonderful spirit is gone," Davinroy said.
