Not only counseling on human sexuality is available at the Uni versity Health Center, but also, if necessary, medical services. “The first goal of this program is education in the area of sex uality, to help individuals under stand the situations they are get ting involved in,” explained Dr. Patricia Self, counselor for wom en. “Sometimes we help them cope with their anxieties as well.” Also, seminars are held for the Business Machines education of the counselors and for resident advisors, she said. Students may make appoint ments for a counseling session on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fri days from 9 to 12 a.m. and on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 5 p.m. Dr. Self said the person’s problem is discussed and alterna tive solutions are suggested. “Many women prefer not to re sort to birth control medication,” she said. If medical assistance is still re quested or needed, the client is referred to Dr. Claude Goswick, who, with Dr. Self, coordinates the direction of the councelling Campus Briefs Commencement change service. “We prescribe birth control pills where the need is indicated, and usually whenever requested,” said Dr. Goswick. “This is the only birth control service available at the present time.” If a woman needs to see a gynecologist, she is referred to Dr. Robert BenbOw at his Texas Avenue office. “In order for a student to see me, she must have a referrel slip from the University Health Center,” he said. “This is a sort of screening process so only those who need the service will attain it,” he added. “We are trying to reach as many facets of life as can be en compassed by sexuality,” said Dr. Self. “However, expansion of the service is difficult.” Dr. Goswick said the Health Center is presently understaffed and has difficulty meeting all medical needs. Dr. Self said she was preparing a budget for the service. “We have had no negative re sponses to the service yet; no one who has said ‘forget it’ or ‘this is worthless,’ ” said Dr. Self. “But so far, not too many students are aware that the council on human sexuality is there.” The University also has facili ties to deal with communicable de- seases, Dr. Goswick said.

Rollie White Coli seum, Dean Edwin H. Cooper an nounced Wednesday. The May 11 ceremonies were originally scheduled for the foot ball stadium because of the large crowd expected to turn out with Vice President Gerald Ford as commencement speaker and with a record number of degree candi dates. “The more we thought about the possibilities for adverse weather— either heat or rain—the more we thought it wise to move back to the regular location for such activities even though we face real seating problems, both for the degree candidates and guests,” noted Dean Cooper, Convocations Committee chairman. The limited seating dictates the need for tickets for admission to the ceremonies, Dean Cooper add ed, and an allocation plan will be announced soon. 6 //e no Puritan, has a sharp eye Overseas loans The Travel Committee of the MSC has a non-interest loan avail able to students planning summer travel overseas in an organized program.

Read Battalion Classifieds A TAMU writing instructor has created a new literary character by speculating about what Will Shakespeare did during the seven undocumented years of his life. James Franklin Peirce has chosen to ignore the streams of esoteric scholarship that cast Shakespeare in dozens of profes sions from butcher to sorcerer to zoologist during the years 1585- 92. Instead Peirce has created Hamnet Hathaway of Arden (his alias for Shakespeare), a loose moraled, stage struck Sherlock Holmes who detects his way through a swirl of historical Elizabethan characters. Early in Peirce’s first story the roguish Hathaway (Shakespeare) is described, “Well, he’s no Pur itan, Your Honour, but then what player is ? He likes his dram when his throat’s dry, which is fairly often, and he has a sharp eye for a well-turned leg or a bare bosom.” “Well,” mused Peirce, “it could be true.” True or not, the first three of a projected series of 10-12 short stories featuring Shakespeare have already been bought by El lery Queen’s Mystery Magazine. In addition Peirce’s work has brought him $5,500 in three grants to continue his research and give him time to write. “Shakespeare isn’t perfect in my stories,” Peirce noted. “Some times he makes mistakes. I try to make him a developing charac ter, so that he learns from each case something new about people which would later on help him create the great plays he wrote.” I LA PETITE ACADEMY OF DANCE Ballet - Tap - Jazz Adult Classes Jan Jones Hamnfiond Teacher 823-8426 3406 S.
