EPA Seeks Youth Help Ef The idea of wanting to work things out together seems to be floating around much more this year than it seems to have in the past. Student leaders are more optimistic in their outlooks and know that if a true Aggie Spirit exists among students, nothing can come in the way of settling conflicts and easing the pains of change. Because student leaders want to end the strife that has more than frequently encompassed the student body, everyone, including faculty and former students, should be willing to get on the bandwagon. Student leaders who are willing to get along with each other for a common Aggie cause (campus unity) at least rate the chance of trying to pull it off through student communication. This doesn’t mean let’s fight each other to achieve our individual goals. This does mean let’s reach our goals through cooperation and working together. The Environmental Protection Agency is seeking qualified col lege-age youth to serve on its Youth Advisory Board for the 1973-74 school year. As advisors to Arthur W. Busch, regional administrator for the EPA, board members are con cerned with environmental mat ters in the five states of Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico. Ideas of board members are integrated into EPA regional policy.
