MSC 206 SPONSORED BY INTERNATIONAL STUDENT ASSOCIATION & T-STAR SOCIETY Campaigning politicians at A&M will not be censored By PHYLLIS PONDER Battalion Reporter Despite rumors to the contrary, politicians campaigning at Texas A&M University will not be denied the right to campaign on campus because of political affiliation. A spokesman for the Political Forum had heard there was to be an issue discussed at Monday night’s meeting of the MSC Council con cerning the limitations or qualifica tions to be met by a political speaker in order for him to speak at Texas A&M. Ray Daniels, MSC council president, said there was no such issue on the agenda. If there is any limitations of speakers, it is because of scheduling problems, Daniels said. There are guidelines set by the MSC Council, Daniels said, that are designed not only to benefit the committee responsible for the speaker but also to benefit the speaker. For example, the MSC Council works with the Aggie Cinema, the MSC Basement Cof feehouse and other organizations to make sure these groups have no thing scheduled that could possibly distract students from the speaker. “If a good movie is showing across at the Aggie Cinema, it will draw people away,” Daniels said. Whenever this problem of con flicting interests arises, the MSC Council or organization sponsoring the speaker tries to negotiate another date for the speech. If the politician is campaigning, he must give a week’s notice to set up a date to speak. However, a politician being paid for his speech is usually scheduled early in the semester at the request of a student organization. The council places no restrictions on the speech itself, Daniels added. “From a philosophical standpoint, it is the job of the council to present all viewpoints and let the student decide which viewpoint he prefers,” Daniels said.
