The State from Columbia, South Carolina (2024)

1st eel Visit By Dominican Leader Underscores USC Programs By MARGARET CORVINI State Staff Writer A visit on Saturday by the president of the Dominican Republic to the University of South Carolina is part of an extensive effort to increase ties with the Caribbean nation, said USC officials. Dr. Salvador Jorge Blanco will deliver a speech and receive an honorary doctor of laws degree during a special convocation Saturday afternoon. His visit comes at a time when USC is engaged in several joint ventures with the Dominican Republic. A year ago, USC signed a 10-year cooperative research and educational exchange agreement with the Catholic University Madre Maestra, the nation's leading university.

USC's College of Business Administration is in the first year of an eight-year effort to establish a graduate program in business management at the Catholic University, while USC's College of Applied Professional Sciences recently embarked on a joint program in hotel, restaurant and tourism management with the Dominican Republic, school. Next month, USC and the Catholic University will co-sponsor a major conference on "Shrimp Aquaculture in the Caribbean Basin: Prospects and Constraints," in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. The various programs and agreements will involve exchanges of faculty, students and research. For example, two professors from the USC College of Business Administration are currently teaching at the Catholic University, said Dr. Ran- Raffield From 1-C Near the end of September 1983, Pat had her husband committed to a psychiatric hospital, he said, and "while I was in the hospital, she broke into my house and took a lot of my things." He mentioned a class ring and record albums "personal items." That incident apparently stung.

Raffield mentioned it several times in his testimony, and I he said that was part of what he wanted to "clear up" with his wife the night he shot her. Voters From 1-C to college students. "It's contradictory," he said, "the students in Orangeburg are counted as part of the census, but they don't count to vote." Mark Dillard, a spokesman for the attorney general, said the four re- Deaths and Hyde Rites ROCK HILL Services for Brig. Gen. Gordon A.

The S.C., Thursday, April 12, 1984 9-C 'They want the tourism industry down there to be influenced by native Dominicans, and the international experience is great for our students. We hope to be cranked up and ready to go by this fall.

The students are chomping at the Dr. Ronald Ingle, USC dolph C. Martin, director of the college's Division of Research. They are there as part of an eightyear project to assist the Catholic University in establishing a graduate program in business and public administration, he said. The project is funded by a grant from the Agency for International Development.

Martin said the Dominican Republic school was interested in starting the master's degree program because "the country has a gap in middle management, and it saw that gap as an impediment to economic development." The cooperative agreement in the hospitality and tourism field also emphasizes management training, said Dr. Ronald Ingle, associate dean of the USC College of Applied Professional Sciences. That program will allow USC students to work as interns at a resort hotel in Puerta Plata owned by the Catholic University, as well as create opportunities for other student exchange and joint research by the two universities, Ingle said. "We're interested in top-level management, and so are they," he In the hospital, Raffield wrote several letters, including one in which he contemplated suicide and another in which he said the only solution to his problems was to kill his wife. He said in court the letters were written as a catharsis to "get it out of my system," and not because he meant to kill anybody.

Strickler described his client to the jury as a "tortured and he registered strong objections with the judge for admitting Raffield's threatening letters into evidence when he had refused to admit other letters in which Raffield begged his wife to leave her lover and come home. Strickler said Raffield's state of quirements most often used to determine residency are property ownership, payment of taxes, automobile registration and the county in which a driver's license is issued. In the opinion, Medlock noted that the state Supreme Court has never "faced the precise question" of whether recognized requirements of residency apply to college students. In view of earlier legal decisions, Medlock said, he has to conclude that, Funerals Paul R. McKelvey Paul Reaves McKelvey, 66, of 217 Beverly Drive, West Columbia, died Tuesday.

"They want the tourism industry down there to be influenced by native Dominicans, and the international experience is great for our students. "We hope to be cranked up and ready to go by this fall. The students are chomping at the bit." The May symposium on aquaculture is another program of mutual benefit to the two universities as well as their respective countries, said Dr. Stanley Applegate, USC system vice president for Sponsored Programs and Research. The symposium, to be held May 2-5, is aimed at business people, investors, farmers and government officials.

It will address the profit potential as well as the potential pitfalls of aquaculture, Applegate said. "Aquaculture is a great opportunity for the Dominican Republic, but they need to be aware of the problems they may encounter," he said. He added that USC and Catholic University officials are discussing the possibility of establishing a joint tropical marine science center in the Dominican Republic. Applegate said Catholic Univer- mind a severe depression that built over months of anguish was the key to what he had done in the heat of passion. But Assistant Solicitor Barney Giese contended the evidence pointed to a premeditated murder.

Giese reminded the jury of Alicia Raffield's testimony she had said her daddy told her, "I'm going to kill your mother Tuesday." That statement allegedly was made Nov. 6 a bleak wedding anniversary when Raffield said he "realized there wouldn't be any more anniversaries for us." On Tuesday, Nov. 8, Pat Raffield died, Giese told the jury. He said in order for students to be registered to vote in the community where they attend college, they must show they are living there indefinitely or with the intent of permanently living there. "The General Assembly has not seen fit to modify this consistent interpretation," Medlock said, adding that his office must advise that the law, as it exist now, should not be departed from "until a court rules otherwise."

Cooperative programs currently are planned in the areas of malaria control and preventive health care, he said. The USC-Catholic University agreement is one of many cooperative education and research programs in which USC is involved. Among other foreign universities exchanging faculty, students research with USC are Stockholm University in Sweden, Kagoshima University in Japan, Shanxi University in China, the University of Alexandria in Egypt, the University of Bamberg in West Germany and the state university system in Pakistan.

Raffield made babysitting arrangements for Alicia and drove to the Town House with a gun and two speed loaders in his pocket with the express intention of wiping Patricia out of his life for good. The case went to the jury at 4 p.m. Wednesday, and the verdict was i in before 4:40. Before Raffield was returned to jail, his attorney asked Judge Harris to intervene with jail officials for the return of Raffield's confiscated medications, which he has been using to combat depression and nervous spells since the death of his wife. Medlock pointed out that other states have relaxed some of the more stringent residency requirements.

North Carolina, for example, adopted a rule that a student doesn't have to permanently reside in the place where he attends school in order to register to vote there.
