It will consist of one class a week and field training whenever possible. The conditioning began Wed nesday with a physical training session for the new members at the obstacle course west of the campus. A rapelling exercise down the Bryan fire tower was conducted Friday. Rapelling is descending a cliff, slope or from a helicopter on a rope sliding through a spe cial harness. The cadets de scended the 60-foot tower on a double rope in an L-shaped posi tion, using their feet to push themselves from the wall. They had to control their de scent with one hand, the other hand being used only as a guide for the rope. In the correct situ ation, this hand would be used to fire a weapon. Safety is stressed as each ra- peller is checked before his de scent. A safety man hold the bottom ends of the ropes. If a rapeller slips, the safety man prevents a fall by tightening up on the ropes. The obstacle course will be run Wednesday. Other exercises this semester are weapons training, an FTX (field training exercise) and a swimming test. The cadet begins the swimming test by jumping into the swim ming pool in fatigues, booths and full pack. He must free himself of this weight to return to the surface. The second phase con sists of swimming the width of the pool while carrying a rifle. Finally, the cadet is put on the 10 meter diving hoard, blind folded, handed a rifle and kicked into the pool again. Survivors may consider they have passed the test. Rudder’s Rangers prepares Aggies for a nine-week Ranger camp offered by the Army each summer. A&M is allotted 14 can didates for this course, more than any other university except West Point. Captain Arnold Laidig, com pany adviser, says that he is im pressed with A&M’s Ranger pro gram. “Rangers are among the top soldiers today; they’re elite and disciplined. A&M’s program produces some great Rangers.” This year’s commander, Tom my McCluer, says “The course consists of six weeks in Georgia getting in shape, patrolling and mountaineering. The toughest part is the three weeks in Flor ida. There is a 12 day FTX and you’re moving all the time. You get one meal a day and only eight to 10 hours total sleep.” McCluer was chosen as com mander by the Ranger advisers. At Ranger school, he was award ed the Merrill Marauders’ Award for efficient patrolling exercises. Executive Officer Bill Haass told of the night in Georgia they rapelled down a 200-foot cliff. “It’s a difficult feeling to de scribe; it’s something totally unique. Men do not normally throw themselves out of helicop ters or down the sides of moun tains.” The other cadet officers are Operations Officer Phil Tuttle, Supply Officer Robert Randle and platoon leaders Tim Fraz ier, Nat Hardy and Mac Wall ing. Also completing the course were Mark Lenneville, Andy Mc- Kemie, David Fette, Richard Corons, John Powell and Mac Walling. THE BATTALION Tuesday, October 2, 1973 College Station, Texas Page 3 FINDING AN AIRPORT in a combat zone is not always an easy task. These Rangers are practicing in case they ever have to come out of a helicopter by means of a rope. (Photo by Gary Baldasari) Education Center Dedicated The university dedicated the first of its new high-rise build ings Saturday with Texas Com missioner of Higher Education Bevington Reed citing the rela tionship between facilities and programs. “Buildings do not make great universities, but great universi ties give buildings great mean ings, great purposes,” noted the top staff member of the Coordi nating Board, Texas College and University System. “Texas A&M is to be congratulated for its com mitment to learning, its dedica tion to service and for the quality of educational programs which give this building its reason for being.” The new $3.5 million eight-story building, the University Educa tion Center, provides classroom and office space for the Colleges of Education, Liberal Arts and Science. Ceremonies dedicating the fa cility highlighted a weekend pro gram entitled “Promoting Public Education.” The program was the second in a fall football-weekend series having an overall theme of “Texas A&M Serves the People.” Dr. Reed spoke before a crowd of approximately 200 which, in addition to guests, included mem bers of the Texas A&M Univer sity System Board of Directors, faculty, staff and students. “I join with you today in your dedication of this building to the spirit of service which is so much a part of Texas A&M University —a spirit of service which en compasses the State of Texas and, more particularly the people, the individuals, who make up this state,” the Coordinating Board official said. “In the dedication of a place of learning, we recognize the ded ication of the past leaders and citizens of this state to the con cept of a landgrant university,” he continued. “We also recognize Saturday the present dedication of the ad ministrators and faculty members of the university to serve others, to give direction and inspiration to young people seeking knowl edge. We also dedicate the stu dents of today and those of to morrow to their period of inquiry and to new learning experiences.” TAMU President Jack K. Wil liams, who presided at the cere monies, called the new facility a “basic building, one which speaks directly to the essentials of learn ing.” Following Dr. Reed’s remarks, TAMUS Board President Clyde H. Wells formally presented the building, with acceptance by Dr. John C. Calhoun Jr., the univer sity’s vice president for academic affairs. > “On behalf of the Board of Di rectors, I formally present this building, the University Educa tion Center, to the faculties of Texas A&M University with the hope and confidence that through its use they will continue to ad vance the programs of the Col leges of Education, Liberal Arts and Science, with the overall goal of promoting public education and serving the people of this state through the' training of leaders,” Wells noted. “We pledge the building’s con tinued use to the pursuit of high quality goals of education for TAMU,” Dr. Calhoun responded. “There is little doubt that this building is a fine example of the manner in which facilities can have a catalytic effect on curric ular programs and faculty,” he noted. The ceremonies included tours of the building. “Promoting Public Education” activities concluded at halftime of the Texas A&M-Boston College football game with notation of the university’s expanding role in all levels of public education.
