Schult PEANUTS Doc Schroff Student Government president should not be afraid to speak out on controversial issues, says Doc Shroff. Shroff, a senior pre-med stu dent, stated that no president has spoken out on the most controver sial and important issues. “My major qualification is that I am not afraid to speak on sub jects that concern the students,” said Shroff. Shroff is proposing many changes from the present condi tions. He is concerned about the type of firearms carried by the campus police, inadequate intra mural facilites, mandatory black outs during Silver Taps, and dorm hours. He suggests unlimited dorm hours in non-corps-type dorms and only voluntary black out during Silver Taps. OPTIONAL FEES. He does not think that athletic fees should be optional because the sports depart ment supports the school as a whole. He feels that the money goes where other money would have to be used otherwise. PROFESSOR EVALUATION. Publication of the professor eval uations is not necessary, in Shroff’s opinion. He does support a Student Government committee to study the results of the sur veys and make recommendations to the administration as to who should be promoted. LIQUOR ON-CAMPUS. Shroff suggested that the old Excange Store be converted into a tavern. He says definitely that he feels (See SCHROFF, p. 5) (Cont it is neces izations t jetition f< iishments SG SA! fas the r ing Stud tive offic' PUN1S if the St lent and tion was the reaso >f punisl COED ‘I’m my own man’ Directly taking all issues to the students and encouraging picket lines against the adminis tration would be a part of the term of Wally Reinke if elected. The senior Zoology major and candidate for Student Govern ment president said that SG was totally inefficient and that it was not necessary to show experience with this most elite slique. “I’m my own man,” said Reinke, in his soft-spoken manner. “I don’t have any interest groups or the administration to appease. The Senate could have full representa tion if all segments of the student body were represented accurate ly.” Reinke said the Senate’s role was to represent the students not to rule them. Other issues Reinke favored in cluded a majority of students on the Student Publications Board or a campus wide election for Bat talion editor, students on the ath letic council, birth control on-cam pus and improvements in planned intramural facilities. OPTIONAL FEES: “If the ma jority of the student body wants it then I would go for such a sys tem for athletics,” said Reinke. “Many students I have already talked to are in favor of optional fees because they don’t attend games.” TRY BATTALION CLASSIFIED I Redmond Terrace Drugs Phone 846-1113 1402 Hwy. 6-South College Station, Texas Prescriptions, Etc.

Most of the issues that are under consideration are on their way to being solved and are not going N? Steve Eberhard to be the concern of the new president of the Student Gov ernment, says Eberhard, a junior mathematics major. Eberhard has been with the Student Government for two years. He is the chairman of Aca demic Affairs this year. His platform included such things as the ned for more and better intramural facilities, choice of dining halls for students, a student car care center and an open-air radio station. OPTIONAL FEES. Eberhard was a member of the group that proposed optional athletic fees this year. He stated that there were good economic arguments for having one, but there are al so problems involved that some people have not considered. For instance, he said, there are good economic reasons for optional atheltic fees, but there are also good reasons for other kinds of fees being made optional. PROFESSOR EVALUATION. (See EBERHARD, p. 5) feel a Corps member should be SG president, even though one probably would be because of the Corps block of votes. “I’m not that familiar with the way SG works,” said Greiser. “It would be good if the representa tion was good.” As a part of his campaign promises, Greiser said he would work toward having a gynecolo gist and birth control information available in the University Health Center. OPTIONAL FEES. “I think people should pay to attend home games,” said Greiser, noting that he didn’t go to football games. “I’m down on how much money TAMU spends for such sports as football and basketball because there are other sports just as good.” Greiser said he felt that a block vote by the Corps in the Senate had prevented items such as optional athletic fees passing. PROFESSOR EVALUATIONS. “I think this is an excellent idea,” continued Greiser. “If the Sen ate said they wanted to publish such evaluations enough times, they would get it.” LIQUOR ON-CAMPUS. Grei ser said the liquor problem was not much of an issue with him since he lived off-campus. He did say he would rather see drinking contained on-campus, than drunk persons causing hazards on the road.
