A 39A MeV 38S radioactive beam was used with inverse kinematics to measure angular distributions for elastic and inelastic proton scattering from a CH2 target. Optical potential and folding model calculations are compared with the elastic distribution. Using coupled channel calculations, the β2 value for the 21+ state is determined to be 0.35±0.04. This value, when compared with the corresponding result from a Coulomb excitation measurement, leads to Mn/Mp=(1.5±0.3)N/Z, indicating an isovector contribution to the 21+ state of 38S.
