s Reaction Mixed to New D • •
COLUMBIA SC (CPS)- For the first time in memory, University of South Carolina students who are under 19 can't drink this fall.
The result, as USC officials concoct a way to enforce the new 19-year-old
',; drinking age the state just adopted, seems to be a sort of chaotic uneasiness.
Officials can't even decide how student groups should pay for alcohol consumed at social events, since using activity fee money would be "unfair" to under-19 students, says Mike Shaver of
• the Campus Alcohol Project. Even the campus bar is changed. The
Golden Spur is replacing beer with pizza just to avoid the hassles the new drinking policy creates.
Wild rumors, closed-down campus • haunts, job losses and even complete r- overhauls of college social activities
have been marking the first weeks of school as scores of colleges open up for the first time under new legal minimum drinking age laws or tougher on-campus drinking policies.
~ Many experts worry the new regulations are confusing, ill-planned and virtually unenforceable.
Alcohol, moreover, is so closely associated with college life that many students simply don't know how to spend their leasure time without drink-
.,. ing, says Charles Tucker, a University of South Florida socialogist.
The rising drinking ages and tougher campus drinking rules nationwide are "sure t9 cause CQncem and turmoil On
many campuses," adds Gerardo Gonzales, a University of Florida counselor and director of BACCHUS, a national group aimed at controlling student drinking.
It's "a situation that administrators realistically cannot enforce," he asserts.
If schools are going to make the new rules work, they need to provide alternative social activities, says Tucker.
Without help, students are left to entertain rumors of undercover campus police infiltrating dorm and rush parties to catch upderaged drinkers.
That rumor was so widespread at Arizona State that ASU police two weeks ago had to issue a public <;lenial to reassure students.
And University of California-Berkeley administrators last week chastised the student newspaper, the Daily Californian, for running an article that told students how to get fake I.D.'s to obtain liquor despite the university's newly-adopted restrictions.
On some cam2uses, new drinking rules are costing students their parttime jobs.
At the University of Illinois-Champaign, local bar owners recently predicted as many as 150 students could lose their part-time waiting and bartending jobs if the town government decides to require all liquor servers to be 21.
Some observers even fear the new crackdown on student drinking could

effects may surface one to three weeks '>- after the shot.
"Most of our manpower will be used sitting down with students and going over the warnings, Collard said.
In addition to the State Health Department form, the MSC Health Clinic has its own consent or waiver
c. form to be signed. _
"They're partially for legalities and partially for our records," Collard said.
"We're not only concerned about the health of everyone on campus, but (also about) the interruption of the academic program should an epidemic occur,"
. she said. "This is preventable." "We're getting a lot of pressure'from
above," she said. The American College Healthcare Association has urged colleli(es to impose oroof of immunitv as a prerequisite to registration. The University of Colorado at Bou1aer ana CU -Fort Collins have already agreed to enforce such a program by January, 1985, Collard said.
"Ultimately it would be a decision by the administration ... The fact that we're a commuter school and not in a
' dorm situation makes it a difficult thing to enforce," she added.
Outbreaks of measles 11nd rubella threatened to close several college campuses last year, and there was at least one reported death, Collard said.
In Colorado, the situation has not been so serious, Englert said, though

boomerang, forcing younger students to become "underground" drinkers.
Left with no place to legally drink on campus, they warn under- aged students will do more off-campus drinking, more drinking and driving, and be less- inclined -to drink responsibly.
"Most of the campus drinking programs are community-wide programs that deal generally with all students," notes Howard Blane, professor of education and psy~ology at ~he University of Pittsburgh.
"There's been precious little research done on such pro~ams, and of the little that has been do ' e the results aren't very encouraging,' he says.
The nationwide trend to raise all drinking ages to 21 has "shifted the focus from alcohoteducatum to policy enforcement," Go zales complains.
"We encourag alcohol education and responsible <¥inking, rather than blanket prohibitidhs," he says. .
drinking ages to 21 by 1986, college students can expect further clampdowns as the remaining 23 states with under-21 drinking ages rush to meet the deadline.
"I imagine we'll see some pretty hot legislative battles in the coming year," says Bob Bingaman, director of the State Student Association (SSA) in Washington, D.C., whicn has helped student governments nationwide lobby against drinking age hikes in their states.
"I personally think (raising drinking ages to 21) is unfortunate," says Pitt's Blane. "If 18-year-olds are allowed to vote, fight in the military, and sign contracts, they should be allowed to drink. We're simply driving student drinkers undercover."
Boosting the drinking age, in fact, may not deter student drinking at all, according to a University of Cincinnati study.
Student surveys before and after Ohio raised its drinking age from 18 to But blanket pr

the babies born this year get to college, they may have to pay $45,000 to $280,000 for their degrees and face a huge post-graduate debt, according to a recent accounting firm study.
"We've witnessed an increase of more than 330 percent in tuition and required fees over the past 15 years in the public S('.Ctor alone,'' says Clark Bernard, chairman of higher education planning for Coopers and Lybrand, which oonducted the college costs study for the American Association 'Jf State Colleges and Universities.
If such rapid tuition increases continue through the turn of the century, as many financial experts expect, "families who have a child this year will probably have to spend $45,000 for a public college education in 18 years,'' Bernard says.
The cost of sending a child to a private college, moreover, will run from $140,000 to $180,000, the study predicts.
"The implications (of the study) are extremely serious," says Allan Ostar,
, AASCU president. "We may well be crea~ng a debtor
cliw of students" by charging so much for tuition that students will spend decades paying back their education loans, he says.
Currently, the cost of attending a public college averages $15,000, Ber-
nard says, while four years at a private institution runs about $37 ,000.
A recent University of Wisconsin study, Ostar says, shows that today's average college student already has a debt of $8200 upon graduation.
Compounding high tuition rates is the federal student aid programs' shift from giving students money through grants to a greater dependence on loan programs.
Two decades ago, Ostar recounts, about 70 percent of all federal student aid was in the form of grants and other awards. Today, 70 percent of all aid money is in loans which students must repay after graduating.
If tuition rates continue to soar and the balance between grants and loans remains lopsided, he warns, "a student's ability tO purchase consumer goods, a car, clothes-just the things it takes to ge't started in life-will be seriously impaired."
And future college students facing such momentous debts "may well be influenced in what kind of career they go into based on how well it will help them repay their loans, rather than choosing the field they really want to go into."
The teaching field, he notes, could be "drastically" affected by big education debts, as more and more graduates are forced to work in the private sector, where salaries are significantly higber.

Every Wednesday at 11:00 a.m., sharp civil defense sirens around Denver wail their eery song. In the hus-tle and bustle of daily life, it's a grim reminder of a nuclear threat many people would rather submerge in their sub-concious.
Paula Purcell-Laird, a young legal secretary with two small children, can't forget this threat. She is on the board of directors of a group called W.A.N.D.-Women's Action for Nuclear Disarmament.
"Our slogan, this year and forever," Purcell-Laird says, "is that children ask the world of us. We are offering no future for our children and they know it."
She quoted startling statistics. Between the super-powers (Russia and the
. U.S.) there are 50,000 nuclear weapons with a capability of killing the earth's population four times over. W.A.N.D.'s stand is for a bi-lateral, verifiable freeze on the production and deployment of nuclear weapons.
"I had a recurring dream when I was quite young," Paula said, "three or four years-old. The bombs had dropped, and I·was the only one left. I had hidden in a refri11:eration tank." (Paula's father was a refrigeration repair man). .
W.A.N.D., a nation-wide organiza-
forward. Dr. Caldicott later moved to
America because she felt she could more actively oppose the nuclear race here than in her own country.
According to Paula, W.A.N.D. offers education and empowerment. They have literature on weapons systems, star wars, even the psychology of the hate relationship between the U.S. and R~a.
.. We keep members abreast of legislation coming up in Congress regarding nuclear weaponry, and a list of senators and representatives that can be contacted."
Once a week W.A.N.D. calls the Nuclear Weapons hotline, a number in Washington D. C., that lists every piece of legislation up in Congr~ for the following week.
The group's main drive at this time is voter registration. Though the group doesn't endorse any particular can-
didate, they do encourage people to vote. Bus placards seen around town carry the group message- "It is Your Priviledge and Responsibility to Vote."
W.A.N.D. also plans to host a fund raiser on October 7 at the Rainbow Music Hall. Though the entertainer has not been confirmed at this • time, they hope to raise money to produce radio commercials that will encourage people to vote.
Purcell-Laird said her feelings on this voter registration drive are best summed up by an editorial she chanced on in the July 9 issue of Rolling Stone • magazine.
"If the anti-nuclear movement was a mature, fully developed operation it would deliver the kind of retribution at the polls that politicians fear.''
W.A.N.D. meets at the Evanston United Methodist Church, 2122 S. Lafayette, every first and third Wednesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. Meetings feature guest speakers (once a month) various films, and literature pertinent to the nuclear artns controversy. The group demands only an •

For Purcell-Laird, W.A.N.D. has become one solution to a term she coined from Dr. Caldicot-"psychic numbinjl".

they want and need? The Student Affairs Board is the primary decision making body on the use of
student fees and has a majority of student Senators as members. The students are Linda Bruce, Scott McMillian, Tammy Williams, Don Morris, Steve Wrenshall, and Ben Boltz. These poor students have their hands full evaluating all the money requests and on top of their other Senate duties aren't in a position to do much metre than d~ide on requests.
Let me suggest to MSC students how they can approach the SAB successfully with a proposal to use the funds. First, get hold of Student Government and we will take steps to get you on the agenda and in cont,ct with the right people. Next prepare a complete proposal with a description, rationale, facilities and equipment required, a_ plan, feasibility and budget. If you take the time to do the legwork and research, the proposal has a better chance of being seriously considered and approved. We have a big pile of good ideas that aren't attached to a human. If you'r_e willing to do the work nothing is impossibl~. • /

The splitting up of families may beone of the most difficult problems facrdby refugees from Southeast Asia, whohave tra&tionally close family ties.
The separation of students from theirIamilies can also make teaching dif-ficult for ESL instructors, because someof those students may be depressed tothe point where their mood negativelyaffects their learning ability.

Rory Ogg's hat-trick and a goal by Amy Shute led the women's soccer team to a 4-2 victory over the Umversity ot Colorado Saturday ·at home.
:
CU got on the scoreboard first with a goal four minutes into the game. The Roadrunners answered.· with tough defense and aggressive offense, leading to Ogg's first of three goals. Shortly before halftime, Ogg struck again kicking the Roadrunners out in front by one goal 2- 1.
CU quickly came back with a goal of its own, putting the half time score at 2-2. Both teams were evenly matched in the first h~f, with MSC taking only two more ~ shots on goal than CU, which had 13.
However, the Roadrunners roared into the second half completely dominating the bumbling Buffs. Ogg scored her third goal of the game, succes.5fully completing her hat-trick.
Although CU tried to fight back, its players had given in to exhaustion. Then Shute, at left wing, struck the final blow by scoring Metro's fourth goal.
Saturday's victory over CU was the women's second win of the week. Wednesday they blitzed the Colorado School of Mines by a 5-2 margin. After shutting out Mines 4-0 in the first half, MSC added one more goal while Mines came back with two goals of its own in the .. second half.
Thursday the women will take on Colorado College in Colorado Springs, and then travel to Laramie to play the University of Wyoming.

Three in a row In a 2-0 shutout at home, the p0werful men's soccer
team defeated a hard-kickin~ St. Thomas (Minnesota) Saturday afternoon, for MSC's third straight win.
Both teams were equally matched in skill a~d speed, with tough defenses limiting each team's shots on goal, especially during the first half.
Forward Marty Richardson's aggress~ve fast-break threatened St. Thomas's goalkeeper several times, as the visiting team's fullbacks chased him toward the goal. However, it was midfielder Tim Vetter who eluded the ,; St. Thomas defense, finally scoring Metro's first goal in the middle of the first half.
St. Thomas came out shooting at the beginning of the second half, taking twice as many shots on goal as Metro, 14 to 7, but failing to score. The majority of the time both teams battled for the ball at midfield, each player trying to out maneuver his opponent.
Once again an MSC player, forward/midfielder Greg Sumlin, successfully penetrated the St. Thomas defense scoring the second and final goal of the game . .
This afternoon the men wi,11 play Colorado College in Colorado Springs. Saturday they will travel to Albuquerque to challenge the University of New Mexico.

Guiels said she was very pleased with her blocking as 'well as the team's intensity throughout the tournament. Head coach Pat Johnson added that she was happy with the women's play all · weekend.
In the seeding rounds held Friday, Metro beat Kansas Newman 15-10 and 15-6 and Southern Colorado 15-3 and 15-1 but dropped a close match to Mines 14-16, 16-18. Thus, MSC was the second seed from their pool into the championship bracket held Saturday.
In the opening match of the championship rouncl, MSC fell to a tough Eastern Texas State. The Roadrunners. took the first game 15-11 but dropped the next two 12-15 and 9-15.
Metro then faced Montana Tech. The Roadrunners took game one easily 15-8. Metro looked as if they were going to roll over Tech in· game-two as they opened up a 7-1 lead. However, Tech fought right back and ,tied the game up at 8-8.

In the opening game of the match, Metro was hot as they held a 3-0 lead but suddenly turned cold as Regis fired back to go ahead 6-4 when Johnsop called a time out.
The game remained close throughout. Both teams were eq~ally matched, as it seemed it was going to be a contest where one teain happened
