Five hundred of those students are work-study, a program where the government subsidizes at least 50 percent ofthe student's pay.

FRANKI FITTERER SportsWeek StaffWriter WOMEN'S BASKETBALL Saturday night just before midnight the Lady Dons became one of the 63 NCAA tournament teams to end their season with a loss. Unlike most of those 63 teams, USF won two hard fought games, and gained sweet sixteen status, the highest in team his­ tory. Their storybook season came to a close on Saturday as they were eliminated from the tournament by the Mideast's number one seed, and second-ranked team in the country, Connecticut, 77-44. "We told the players not to focus on this loss, but to be proud ofthe season they have had," co- head coach Mary-Hile Nepfel said.
