Save half a dollar.
The Campus Directory 1977-78 is being sold this year
on a pre-publication discount basis.
Students: be sure to ask for the directory on pre-registration and registration
fee list check-off. You can buy the directory at the same time you buy the
Aggieland ’78. You also save half a buck on the directory’s price if you buy
before the book is published.
Faculty, Staff and Others who want a good deal: This year order your Campus
Directory copies before publication and save $.50 per copy. Since most offices
usually buy a bunch of the books, you could save a lot of money. All you have
to do is write the Division of Student Publications, 216 Reed McDonald Building,
asking for the number of copies you need. Either enclose $3 per book or the
University Fiscal Office account we should charge. We’ll notify you when the
books are ready to be picked up.
Pre-publication price:
$3.00
Regular price: $3.50

office, 216 Reed McDonald Building, Texas A&M University.

No one wakes up thinking.
Today I’m going to abuse my childT
Abuse is not something we think
about, it’s something we do. It runs
against our nature, yet it comes
naturally. It’s a major epidemic and
a contagious one. Abused children
often become abusive parents.
Abuse perpetuates abuse.
Child abuse is a major cause of
death for children under two. Last
year in America, an estimated one
million children suffered physical,
sexual or emotional abuse and ne
glect (many cases go unreported).
At least 2,000 died needless, pain
ful deaths. And if you think child
abuse is confined to any particular
race, religion, income group or
social stratum, you’re wrong. It’s
everybody’s problem.
What’s being done about pre
vention? Not enough. Preventive fa
cilities are simply inadequate. Most
social agencies deal with abusers
and their victims after the damage
has been done.
Child abuse doesn’t have to
happen. Eighty percent of all abusers
could be helped, with your help. Your
community needs your aid in form
ing crisis centers, self-help pro
grams for abusers, and other grass
roots organizations. Please. Please
write for more information on child
abuse and how you can help.
What will you do today that’s
more important?
