Rippel (continued from page 5) student services committee needs to investigate more types of services that are not provided at Texas A&M, but are provided at other schools. Are there any services that should receive more or less student services fee allocations? Why? Not at the present time, but if it were brought to my attention that the allocations should be changed, I would investigate the matter thoroughly before making a deci sion. Should alcohol be allowed on campus? Why? No, I do not feel that alcohol should be allowed on campus be cause if it were, soon the beauty of the campus would be marred by those few students who would abuse it. Besides, students have survived so far without it that I feel it is not really necessary, or something would have been done about his issue at an earlier date. . . .

In another area, we could give additional limited funding on an ex perimental basis to Town Hall to check on getting additional con certs. Should alcohol be allowed on campus? Why? There is some merit to the idea of alcohol or the choice of it at some campus activities. However, I feel that if we allow alcohol on campus we will soon be faced with the prob lems that go with it, and most im portant of all the growing problem of drinking at Kyle Field. There are enough drinking establishments around the campus and the sur rounding area for that purpose. Let’s leave alcohol out of public campus activities. ing other apartment residents. I would try to alleviate this problem and foster camaraderie by sponsor ing zone parties and encouraging more off-campus participation in in tramurals. Are there major problems with off-campus students? If so, what are they? Some of the major problems that are common among offcampus stu dents are insensitive apartment managers, the requirement by some apartments of 12-month leases, high fuel and utility bills, business dealings with unreputable firms, the rising cost of living in apartments, and the apathy of some off-campus students to what is happening on campus. For freshmen, the two major problems are locating a place to live and finding the right room mates. How would you like to see the shuttle bus system changed? I would like to see more efficient shuttle bus service to the off-campus students and the waiting time for shuttle buses during the peak load periods reduced. Also, I hope to see the shuttle bus service expanded to weekends because many people do not have cars who need to come on campus. Another idea OSCA is presently studying is the possibility of shuttle busing during football games to reduce the parking prob lem. . . . DuBois . . .

If so, how? Ofl-campus students do not share enough group activities. I would encourage the OCSA to sponsor zone activities such as intramural participation, parties, and service drives. Activities such as these could promote a sense of group identity. Are there major problems with off-campus students? If so, what are they? The major problem among off- campus students is a lack of group identity which in the past has led to general apathy. Creative solutions must be found. One method would be through organized zone ac tivities. It shouldf also be possible to foster among off-campus students an awareness of our common concerns. How would you like to the shuttle bus system changed? A well thought out, thorough study should be done to determine how to improve the effectiveness of the shuttle bus system. Concurrent with this should be a study of stu dent opinion on and feasibility of shuttle bus service to football games and on weekends.
