This position gave me much insight into student government and what is re quired of the student body presi dent. I have had previous experi ence in combined leadership and administrative capacities through serving as both state and national president of the Future Farmers of America. As national president I had the opportunity to visit many university campuses around the country, thus gaining more insight to some possible opportunities for our student government. I have also been active in other organizations on campus. I feel that I would be able to work effectively with the State Legislature this next year be cause of my past experience working in Washington, D.C.

Bill Clements for Governor. What University regulations would you like to see changed? Since the Student Senate has re cently completed their recom mendations for changes in the Uni versity rules and regulations, no thing comes to mind right now that would be of major importance. I would be willing to listen to any complaint that students might have and do what I could to resolve the problem. My major area of interest right now would he regulations con cerning the academic areas and some of the present problems now being studied. On what basis would you choose members for University commit tees? Would you appoint yourself to any of them? In the past the problem has not been finding people who are qual ified. We need those interested and qualified. The student needs to have some background in the area that the committee deals with. They must also be interested enough to attend all meetings. They must he able to effectively state students’ views and gain the respect of the other members of the committee. I would also set up a program by which the students would make regular reports to the student body president or the executive director. This would provide more effective discussion with the administration concerning the decisions of these committees. I would look first to find other students to fill these pos itions, thus not taking too much of anyone’s time. However, if no one is interested or if the influence of the position of student body president would further the student voice in an important issue, I would consider the possibility of appointing myself . Do you feel that students have adequate input into University pro cedures? If not, what changes would you propose? Students at A&M actually have more influence on University pro cedures than students on most other campuses that I have visited. The areas that have strong student input are some of the most successful, such as food services. However, there are still some areas where there is little or no student input. Any area that effects students should have some student input. A student representative should not be just an ornament but his ideas and suggestions should be seriously considered. The only change, then, would be simply to ask that the Uni versity in every area dealing with students be more receptive and re sponsive to student input. Do you think fraternities and sororities should be recognized on campus by the University? Why? One question I would ask in re sponse to this one is, “Do the fraternities and sororities actually desire University recognition under the present requirements that ac company this recognition?” Most are structured so that this recogni tion would create some problems. They appear to be experiencing growth under the present system. What they seem to desire most is the opportunity to work off campus so long as they are not threatened or put down just for existing. It is a matter of finding a system accept able by all, whereby they have some opportunity to work, on campus or off. There are many factors on both sides that must he dealt with before recognition will he considered by both sides. Should alcohol be allowed on campus? Why? The present policy concerning al cohol on campus appears to be adequate. I see no real need for change. As far as a student pub on campus, it appears now from a prac tical view that the odds are against it. Hie opposition of the Board of Regents and administration, the state law, the availabilityfofj the competition created will! P * local business community J, / . seem to add up against it.
