institution and all Texas A&M
What do you consider to be your
role in student affairs?
I consider myself to be a symbol
of Aggie spirit on and away from the
A&M campus. I will need to de
velop, organize, and “control” Ag-
gieland spirit, while at the same
time being a liaison between Aggie
traditions and the current diver
sified student body.
Should yell leaders serve as
spokesmen for student athletes?
Heck no, student athletes should
be spokesmen for student athletes.
How would you unify the increas
ingly diverse student body at Texas
A&M?
First of all unity starts with be
lieving in a common cause. Our
common cause is the friendliness
and respect we have for Texas A&M
University. Our yell leaders can be
that symbol only if they are sup
ported by the student body as a
whole. I don’t want to try to be a
yell leader for the non-regs or any
other particular group, but I would
like the opportunity to be an “Ag
gie” yell leader.

Mark Lewis, 20, Sophomore, Ag
Education major from Lancaster,
Texas.
What are your qualifications for
this office?
To begin with, I’m an Aggie. It is
my desire to be a part of this univer
sity and enjoy it to the fullest. I’ve
Mark
Lewis
been active in student activities and
have also been in the Singing
Cadets since my first semester. I
know what it is to be a real Aggie,
and that I would make a good yell
leader.
What do you consider to be your
role in student affairs?
As a yell leader, I will not only
lead the student body at all ball
games and yell practices (including
baseball games). It is my job to try
to keep our university unified, as it
has been in past years. I think this
unity is a problem since A&M is so
large now with so many interests on
campus.
Should yell leaders serve as
spokesmen for student athletes?
I think it would be my responsi
bility to express any views the
athletes have to the student body.
How would you unify the increas
ingly diverse student body at Texas
A&M?
I will do anything I can to bring
the many diversified groups to
gether in the A&M student body.
This will involve encouraging indi
viduals to accept each other as fel
low Aggies, and trying to break
down and eliminate the barriers
keeping them apart. Also, coming
together at ball games and pulling
together for our fighting Aggie team
is a major part of our unity.
SETTLEMEYER
Miller Settlemeyer, 19, Sopho
more, Industrial Distribution major
from San Antonio, Texas.
What are your qualifications for
this office?
Physically, I’ve got the voice to
get myself heard. My biggest qual
ification, however, is wanting to
Miller
Settlemeyer
serve for all Aggies — past, present
and future. I am not running as a
non-reg, but as an Aggie wanting to
do a job for all who can truthfully
say they are Aggies.
What do you consider to be your
role in student affairs?
I see the job of yell leader as a
political one only during elections.
From then on, a yell leader is
looked upon as an example for all
Aggies,therefore his outward ap
pearance and actions should be such
that they do none other than accen
tuate the high charcter standards of
A&M.
Should yell leaders serve as
spokesmen for student athletes?
Since yell leaders have a direct
outlet to the students from the
athletes, yes I believe they should
serve as spokesmen for student
athletes.
How would you unify the increas
ingly diverse student body at Texas
A&M?
The best way is to be willing to
work together with whoever else is
elected. If the student leaders can’t
work together for the purpose they
set out to do, one can’t expect the
students to follow as one body.
STRAUB
Ed Straub, 19, Sophomore,
Building Constmction major from
Bayville, New York.
What are your qualifications for
this office?
Ed
Straub
The biggest qualification that a
yell leader needs and I believe that
I have is spirit. I actually believe
that I have the fire, enthusiasm, and
the spirit to keep the A&M crowd
just as enthusiastic as I would be on
the field and the court. My love for
A&M has grown to the point that I
know I can maintain this spirit.
Dedication to my school, as well as
myself, is my goal as a yell leader.
Whenever I’m involved in an ac
tivity I completely devote myself to
doing the best job I know how.
What do you consider to be your
role in student affairs?
Many people believe that a yell
leader just goes onto the field and
leads yells and that’s it. That ideol
ogy is totally wrong. A yell leader is
tbe Ambassador of Texas A&M.
Everyone sees the yell leader and
everyone gets their impression of an
Aggie from the yell leader. There
fore, he must at all times have the
class, spirit, and enthusiasm of the
ideal Aggie. The yell leader is the
12th Man. If you ask anyone on
campus who the leaders are and
they can tell you. But ask that same
person who all their profs are and
they probably can’t tell you. You
know that yell leaders are the am
bassadors of A&M.
Should yell leaders serve as
spokesmen for student athletes?
Being in contact and becoming
friends of the athletes, a yell leader
should defend the athletes if word is
spoken against them. But I don’t
think a yell leader should speak for
an individual athlete’s opinion. As I
said before yell leaders are the am
bassadors for A&M and they should
defend all Aggies.
How would you unify the increas
ingly diverse student body at Texas
A&M?
A&M is built on spirit and tradi
tion. Tradition has always been at
A&M. Change is a definite part of
society. The framers of the Con
stitution allowed for change with
amendments. Even though A&M is
big on tradition, change is neces
sary. I noticed at the basketball and
even football games students were
leaving eight minutes early. Tradi
tion is great, but a need for change
is necessary. Even though a great
