probably been registered before,
while others are from out of
state.
“However,” McClellan added,
“if we find that we can register
more than 50 per cent, we’ll do
it.”
McClellan said that one reason
for poor student voter response
is that too many students are
not even aware of the procedure
involved in registration.
TISA’s voter campaign is be
ing organized through the stu
dent government agencies on col
lege and university campuses.
Texas A&M is not participat
ing in the drive, according to
Gerry Geistweidt, Student Sen
ate president.
Geisteweidt gave lack of time
as the main reason for A&M’s
non-participation.
“The only thing that will be
done is the drive that was done
earlier this year (by A&M stu
dents last November),” he said
today. “I think it is an appro
priate direction to move, how
ever.”
Geistweidt said that the Sen
ate is however, thinking of par
ticipating in other activities, such
as the American Cancer Socie
ty’s national drive on college cam
puses. Eforts may also be made
in the direction of combating pol
lution, the student body presi
dent said.
