ke many heterosexual couples,
;y stay home and watch TV most
pe time.
They do go to the gay dances
sponsored by Alternative and
GSSO. They claim that the turnout
for these parties has been as high as
200 people.
“There’s an awful lot of people
here that just want to get their de
grees and go to parties. They don’t
want to be activists. There’s another
group that is activist. They’ll do
speakers’ bureaus and be inter
viewed. And there’s others who are
scared to death and they’re not sure
what they want to do, but they don’t
want to be in the limelight. They’ll
go to parties, but they won’t play on
our intramural sports teams,”
Sharon said.
A gay intramural sports team?
“Yes, they even have T-shirts,”
Sharon said. The team is named
after a gay bar in Houston.
Both Sharon and Dale say that
the atmosphere here is oppressive.
“I really don’t like living here,” Sha
ron said. “I came down here from
the Northeast and it was a lot of cul
tural shock. I don’t like the oppres
sion and don’t like the bigotry that is
rampant down here, not just against
gays. I don’t like the attitude against
non-whites. I don’t like the attitude
against non-Baptists. But, it’s good
for me here in the sertse that there’s
nothing to do but study.”

SPONSORED BY THE CRAFTS & ARTS COMMITTEE
public areas of the University in
cluding residence halls, the Memo
rial Student Center, Rudder Tower
and kiosks on Military Walk.
“This change broadens out pub
licity regulations to include every
building on campus,” said Dr. John
J. Koldus, vice president for student
services.
Another change in the advertising
and publicity guidelines is the de
partmental units’ ability to impose
additional advertising restrictions
where that academic department is
responsible for specific bulletin
boards.
Persons or organizations who post
on bulletin boards are also now re
sponsible for the removal of mate
rial when the date for posting has
expired (not to exceed three weeks
or one day following the posted
event).
Koldus said the new restrictions
are the University’s attempt to “re
fine the helter-skelter, anytime-
anyplace advertising” occurring on
campus.
Koldus said the new bulletin
board advertising and publicity reg
ulations were effective upon
William’s approval.

THE DEAN OF BEER’S QUICKIE QUIZ.
Q: Chill-Lagering is:
a) A popular German country and western singer.
b) A Scandinavian winter sport played without clothes.
c) A new ethnic TV comedy about the owner of an ice
cube factory.
d) The right way to age beer.
A: (d) Sorry, Chill-Lagering is not Olga and Svend
running around in a snowstorm in their birthday
suits. Chill-Lagering is the way Schlitz ages beer.
They age it cold. Very cold. Down to 29.5 degrees.
The result is a beer with sparkling clarity. A
beer that’s crisp, clean and bright.
I suggest you look into one right now.
THERE'S JUST ONE WORD
FOR BEER.
